by the way, how are your pants? Tight? I suppose we could have a Cap'n Loosepants, Cap'n Shortpants or dare I say it? Cap'n Nopants, but I'm getting off-subject

Yes, what I was going to ask is "any clue on what we are supposed to be doing to get our points up, sorry, the crew's points up?"

Now I'm all for honorary titles and positions on the ship but it all seems for nought if we're not actually going to be doing much

btw whilst we're on the subject of positions, I'd like to be Companion... or companion to the companion - unless you've already have got one of those in which case I've either challenged them to a duel or made a grand proposition to another male

So, any information you could enlighten us with would be most appreciated. Please don't take this as a challenge to your authority, I may speak up but I'm not traitor. I can't afford to be, I've got less than 200 credits

Umm...call me Cap'n Slightly Loose and Comfortable Pants.

Needy, if you want to be our Companion, go for it! We could use one, I guess.

As far as the gaining points as a crew goes, I still have no idea. There's nothing up on the site about any specifics, but it seems that there will be upcoming challenges where the amount of points rewarded will depend on how many crewmembers participate, so NO SLACKERS!!!

I think right now it's just in the organization stage.

The road to Hel is paved with good intentions

I just had to laugh when I realised the connection between my username here and my position on the ship. How did I miss that before?

I must point out though that I'm a guy and as much as it might force some ladies to go to their bunk, I'm not into the whole man on man action, so maybe you could always hire a female companion too

(Listen to me, I'm taking this seriously - I've never taken anything serious in my life!)

I see what you mean!

Is there anyway to upload your own images as avatars, or do you have to pick one of the selection?

Btw, I just realised how going by Needy here and Needsalt over at the official site can be a bit confusing. I like your new name for me "Needster" - makes me sound like a car with a kick-ass engine. Though Needy should keep things simple - it's obviously a nickname for Needsalt and Needster and it also fits my status on the ship.

I am very ashamed of all of you! Why? Because I had to go digging for this thread. That should not happen! How can we recruit more members if they can't find the thread? This thread needs to stay up near the top!

Do the dance of shame!

No, just kidding. But I will give us all an assignment-let's try to keep this bumped so we can get a few more crew members. Captain Soul needs a full house if he wants to be able to compete with any of the other crews. So, what do you say?

And Flechette-you might want to consider a pad lock on the pantry, or Rat may try to acquisition the food. That goes for everyone and their personal belongings, too.

And oh! Looks like we got ourselves a Shepherd! Yay!

BTW, the 'Destiny' IS a boat of the Firefly class, right? No other would do, I just love that boat!

I'm 22 and am working for a while before grad school (just graduated this year). I am a not-too-crazy smart sister :) My last roommate got me hooked on Firefly (she had ALL the Buffy and Angel DVDs too! It was awesome!) and now I've had my whole family and my boyfriend watch the series.... conquering the world with Firefly one at a time. I may not have as much time as some people to put into this, but I always exude team spirit & I'm committed and will put up as many posters, etc as I can.
