I just got annoyed that everything you criticized me on you were either wrong or I told you why it was like that, minus the aegis parenting. But you're right, I actually do need sleep =P. World Poker Tournament is too nerve racking though. I'm rooting for the English guy (cause I'm half English) and thrice when all in he's won against the odds with the river card (Texas Hold'em).

Just sent Chaos my feedback on his first designs. And sent that feedback to our team as a whole. I would like the rest of the team if they have already not done so to check out Chaos's design and give him your feedback as well. And what you would like to see it incorporate. If no one gives Chaos any feedback and what they would like to see it do. Then I suppose he will only be able to take into account my input and his I suppose when building it. I hope everyone has looked into Chaos's ideas thus far, and will send him input soon on it. I have sent him 4 write ups thus far for motherships and variants. I believe two of these write ups are far superior to what he has sent us. If Chaos disagrees with my ideas and fails to incorporate them with his own, then I maybe building a mothership with my write out to challenge his own. I'm in this to help make the best possible mothership using everyones ideas as a whole. Not to simply let one person make the ship on there own without feedback from us all. Again I suggest everyone give Chaos there feedback as to what they would like to see. If not then its not quite a team effort in my eyes. Anyways read the pms I have sent to you all, and make sure to send Chaos your feedback soon. If I feel that no progress has been made to better his design and ask us what we would like to see along with his ideas. I will be making one of my own to show the team as a whole, so they can get differnt and fresh ideas, instead of just one person giving us there ideas on a mothership. This will be a team effort, and the entire team's idea will be incorporated in the making of our mothership if they feel they have solid advice to give.


Thanks to Chaos for making a great hull, but the rest is lacking in my eyes.
Sorry to be blunt, but theres no other way to be at this point in time :)

Alright, my escort ship's almost done.

About Chaos' mothership, I can't give feedback because I don't have it, can someone send it to me? It would make it a lot easier for me to give feedback on it if I actually knew how it functioned, etc.

I'm thinking I might go for either a beamer boat or something with good shock and awe value. Perhaps a bunch of blasters.
Since nobody else has said it. Thanks Comus for giving us something to work with, it makes coming up with designs much easier. I would love to see and critique Chaos' and Kenshin's ships (even if they are works in progress). However there seems to be a select group at work here and not a team effort since I am not privy to getting the WIPs and (assumption here based on comments) only a few people on the team are getting to see these WIP Motherships???

I have a couple of designs for escorts made up based on what I saw as possibilities based on Comus' MS but am hesitant to send them to the team yet as they are based on the one type of MS presented so far. If I had the opportunity to see if their design is sound against other MS's then I would send them out for evaluation right away.

I only sent them to three othe rpeople because I didn't have much time and they were the ones that seemed to want to be involved with the MS build at the time. Version 2 will be sent to everyone.

Speaking of which . . . time to build it.

Sent my ideas and write up to the team in full. So they may scrutinize it and see for themselves how efficent it looks on paper. What I lack is the skill to build like some folks on our team. Sorry if I left anything out, but I have made a effort to send each of our teamates my escort and some of my thoughts already. So I wouldn't say I have left everyone out of my input at all. Now you have it all, and its all in your inbox's :twisted: LOok through it and if ya have sometime send me some feedback. Please do not post my write up in open forums as was chaos's ship, cuz it was sent to the team as a whole *smiles* Enjoy the nice write up, and dangerous ideas.........

ShadowBot v2.0 is almost done. Taking into account Comus and DS's ideas, this does a much better job of both protection and assault.

[Edit:] Should be filtering into your inboxes right now.

I agree with Jafo here, what happened to the "team" in mothership tournament? I'd like to see some of these WIP ships too.

Thanks Chaos - will check it out and provide feedback later (it is getting late here :) ). The first test run has me re-thinking my escort design philosophy which worked well against Comus' design but failed against your MS (need to find one that works well with/against both designs).

Figured it would only be a matter of time before ya crept in here ANTI.

Now back to your own corner and wait for the bell to ring... :twisted:


PM links on the first post in front of the names as Kenshin suggested. So if ya need to send the team as a whole pms, the links are now in the first post.
