I need someone to take over the thread for me. I cant be online for at least another week probably due to a massive failure of my computer internet connection... the wireless hub got screwed up and now wont work, it's getting fixed but it'll be another week before I can get it up and running again, sorry. AKA and Horgrathi are in charge of the SDF for the remainder of my disconnection.

PS: Sry, this is Pyroman_Ace, I'm just at a friends house and didnt change messageboard accounts...sry for confusion! - Black 1

What?
Charlie Manson, UncleDave... Nowhere do I see theese?

And yeah, I think I should put a word in for myself. (Remember the old "spawn sector" and then heading to a warpzone for the DM sector... *heh* )


And yes, I admit to being a longtime gone person too.


Another question, those two mean evil evil bots around the station in 9 (or was it 7?). how many of you were fighting those in bus'es ? ;)

Jan 26, 2004 Niki link
they (the 'evil' bots) were around the station in s9 and i LOVED to fight them in a tuned bus (with heavy engine/battery and blue lasers :)) ;)
Jan 27, 2004 Spider link
Glad I wasn't alone there.

I sorta miss those, because:
a) they weren't -too many- so you never got swarmed. Good thing when you're just getting "better"
b) Rather close to the station, so you wouldn't die unnecessary.
c) they were evil, but not completely overpowering. The step from those to the tri-squads with blue ion thingies that used to hang around in s17 back in yesteryear was ... big ;)

ok, this tells me that I need more than 5 Pages to post these pics

P.S. when i get done with this website, go to the "Veteran Hall of Fame" link.

also, i should clear up what a vet is, well what im looking for: Skill, the most skill, able to kill many things on sight.

also IF you can, make a final list of them

Tss

And im not a vet, just a big noob. Although thanks for boosting my ego ;)

cheers

Skill != Vet status
Skill == Ace status

/me agrees with genka whole-heartedly

Im back! YAY! My computer got fixed.
Jan 31, 2004 Henshaw link
The Henshaw wishes to be considered for Veteran status. He is the last of the Syndicate (read pirates) and has been playing for a couple of years now. If skill can translate into profits i always have a few 100K in the bank from my marauding.
Feb 01, 2004 Spider link
nah, the syndicate are all new ;)

Feb 01, 2004 Henshaw link
cheers for backing me up spidey! ;p
Feb 01, 2004 spectre_c_me link
me wonders why he isnt on the half-vet list

hmm.... tis a sad day when people forget invisiblish one... how did AKA (Asteroid X-the orignial) get to uber vet? damn... i must have missed something...

-io

veteran would be generous, but i dun think anyone would throw me in with that... maybe a few

/me thinks Invisiblish One is a vet. =)
Feb 02, 2004 UncleDave link
[ego]If skills are what defines an ace, then I have them. I can beat Phoenix, Eldrad, Camps, all of these people AT LEAST half of the time (well, eldy is hard :p), and I rank myself one of the best players in Vendetta.[/ego]

So, here is my list of what's what.

Aces:

Icarus
Phoenix
Eldrad
StarFreeze
SirCamps
[ego]Meeeeeee[/ego]
Blaster
FiReMaGe
Whistler
Roguelazer

Veterans:

Sooo many...

Renegade, Kojo, Rager, Archon, Henshaw, Penguin, Arolte, Furball, Sam, n00b, Magus, Lin, Commander Jameson (wish I knew where he got to) Verd, Lemming, and a whole bunch of others...

Iono.

Now here is where it gets interesting. Am I a vet? I've been around since 3.2.x and have played on and off, but I can't hit the broad side of a barn. On the other hand, I'm over 3 million right now. So meh. I consider myself a vet, but not an ace by any means.
Feb 09, 2004 asphyxia link
hmm, interesting topic...

oh, to put my two cents in

Around since the time when there were were co-op, dm (and ctf?) sectors, and each wormhole had giant turquoise balls around them. God knows when that version was =)

fighting? erm, not brilliant

cash? yeah, been in the millions.

dunno where i go on that list =(
Feb 09, 2004 DR link
I'm somewhere in the top 15-20 in pks... and no that's not mostly bus kills... that count for anything? heh
