Mostly Clueless

  1. Psykit found out today from PhoenixBlue that when taking missions, takedown missions will take you to anarchy systems so you can destroy all witnesses without concern for your bounty or notoriety.

Any other business

  1. Karen – Please could you remind people that Platinum VIP tickets and upgrades will be unavailable after 1st June (tomorrow) as Karen needs time to order the items. She will also be ordering polo’s and fleeces, so if you want these do order soon.

One Comment:

  1. Cmdr Ned McReady

    When naming a cat, the final choice should always be something you are happy to shout out of the back door to get them to come in.

    In this case, there is a Hobbes theme, and this could be complicating factor in terms of the first spec point. Consider how comfortable you would be shouting:

    • “Bossman” or “Jazz”; to invoke other original Wing Commander pilots
    • “Etienne ‘Doomsday’ Montclair”; another Wing Commander pilot, but with Elite Dangerous resonance. You can then just shorten to ‘Etienne’ if the cat demonstrates disturbing tendencies
    • “Ralgha nar Hallas”; The real name of Hobbes in Wing Commander (note: neighbours may attempt the Heimlich maneuver on you if shouted repeatedly.)
    • “Ovens”
