I think he does..check out his Last story post.

"...The Hive searched for debris, and found none. The only anomalous readings at all were some gravitational fluctuations in the Last reported position of the ship. And these subsided over the next few minutes until they were completely gone. The ship had disappeared as neatly as if it had never existed..."

"Primary Command: Reestablish previous orbital position. Bearing known, calculate distance to previous position:

Working.

Distance calculated. Distance to previous position 3169248453331200.7 Km.

...Estimated time for Orbital command receipt of maintenance request: 314 years, 6 months, 14 days, 14 hours, 12 minutes, 41 seconds..."

Yes Kwok. It's the only semi-intereesting thing that has happened so far. Unfortunatly it's a mothballed ship so I can't do anything with it. And for role play reasons I have chosen to simply act as if the Hive has no idea what happened to the ship.

What's wierd is that you can see it and I cannot see you. I was fairly certain that mothballed ships gave you a view of the system. Which was something I always considered a bug actually, thinking they should not. Now it appears at least in this game it does not?

Game is pretty slow recently.

Worse, Aronnax's life is pretty busy for a few weeks, and the other alien race I run into is not keen on alien contacts.

I am surrounded by aliens and...alone.

Sigh.

If you mean slow as in getting turns in...yes. I'm sorry for the lag. I've been trying to get my grad school apps in and I usually just sit in front of the TV at night pen in hand not doing anything.

Sorry guys...I'll try to be more dilligent in the future.

And even if you aren't complaining about turns, I'm still sorry.

Just cause I feel bad...
