Hey, Spoon, you need to take a look at the "King Of The Hill Manual For Game Updates" book...This falls quite short of what some of us are looking for...

Sorry! How's this:

It was Ensign Mudlark's first appointment to a ship larger than the spawning bed he was born in. The excitement he felt in his gizzard was amplified by the gravitational vortices put out by the classified warp nexus his ship was stationed over. Ensign Mudlark knew his ship was playing the waiting game for an opponent so vile, that the official orders from Wormus Prime were for all unarmed ships to immediately engage and ram the nearest enemy vessel. The Wormlings haven't resorted to such things since the war leading up to the Great Slynkian Brainfeast of 2142. Such thoughts brought Ensign Mudlark's mind back to the tunnels of his youth, where he hoped one day to return triumphant and claim a plot of soil for his own.

Suddenly, the calm of Ensign Mudlark's ready room was shattered by the piercing wail of the lower deck klaxons! He was being summoned to duty! Mudlark dashed to his equipment locker with the urgency of a wartime hero and flashed his badge over the security screen. A few seconds later, he was bound to the lower deck mess, with his weapon in hand: the top-of-the-line Specular Vacu-mop 3500. Whatever it was that spilled down there would be cleaned up before the Wormlord Shipadmiral even caught scent of it.

And so Ensign Mudlark's ship would remain clean, as the Wait continued.
