does it matter? they can be honored. (and for the matter of playing, I firmly believe SF will come back. if just once...)

(*half jokingly* let's have icarus day be the day you have special edition icarus widgets, and you pirate the hell out of each other with your favorite setups... person with the most icarus widgets at the end of the day wins!)

hehe, yeah, i like the idea of a vet day =)

Something to immortalise the names of certain testers who have been around a long time.

Hey it would be cool if we could dedicate a roid or some other object in a sector to a vet. You know, have waylon texture map a bronze "Dedicated to..." plaque on it =)

With a universe of 7k odd sectors.. im sure there's room for some in there without getting "too stupid"..

Or perhaps have their name etched into an ice roid?

lol. like s8. just a big, smooth ice roid with your names on it.

/me imagines new players looking at the roid: "why would someone name themselves UncleDave?"

(/me grins and runs!)

There should be days dedicated to several people. FiReMaGe is quite possibly the last of the old old ages. He was here before me, phoenix, arolte, ect.

Icarus is the origonal pirate, and the 1337357 rocket man.

StarFreeze has contributed more than any of us however. He set up the first community site, he tried to organize a team to bring the manual up to date. He set up the first and most succsessful bank ever. He spend his own time to finance that bank, make transfers, and do all the math. He is a great person, and deserves to be honored for it.

I suggested SF day because he is retiring and he has greatly contributed to the game. I have already supported the idea of a Veteran's Day but you can also note that there are individual days to honor Martin Luther King, George Washington's B-day, and Licoln's B-day.

Im sure that our non-US players can also think of days that their country celebrates to add to my small list.

But on the point, SF day would be similar to a MLK day, to honor a great human not just a great player, but a good person in all forms of the word.

Unless someone can develop a "shrine" of ex Vendetta players in the Web somewhere? Each with its own little profile etc.
