Melnorme aren't that bad. If you've got _nothing at all_ on your ship he will give you fuel for free. Heh, he sounded so bitter when he did that. *)

I have an old computer which I can use to play SC1 (or SC2 without sound) so I don't need the emulator (it's even got a great keyboard so the keys don't easily get locked). What I do need are the extra ships from Star Control 2. It would be so cool to get them in the game.

Hmm... the strategy part of Star Control doesn't seem very complicated to me and I believe it wouldn't be that hard for an able programmer to code. Perhaps after the current project is done our heroes could try to complete this next undertaking.

The source of SC1 is lost. Does that mean that we'll never see this piece of art? I've dreamed of it for many years and it would be sooo great to have. The strategy game was cool, but alas, no one wanted/could play it with me. *snif*

Umgah is cool. It's just so great to toast your enemies with, gives a feeling of superiority. "I beat you... with the Umgah! HAH!"

At one point in SC1 it was my favorite ship. They were even cheap to construct, which was nice.

So I guess I will never go on with my plan of gathering enough credits for the secret...

Yes, I downloaded through IE, because Download Accelerator didn't work and my age old copy of Getright has stopped working and I didn't bother to download and install a new version. I guess I should.

Just a couple of days ago some guy wanted to argue with me about the best sport. You can guess what my pick was. *)

By the way, here's a website about the sport of kings: http://critic84.tripod.com/frungy.html

"And the gods walked among mortals..."

*worship*

It was good, but of course not as good as the original. .)

I'll be sure to add it to my SC playlist.

Ah, good. Now I can relax.

I'm trying to download the alpha version, but am having difficulties. Two times already the game has transfered only partially while claiming to be completed. I get the screen that shows it being copied to my hard drive, but when I look at the file it's only 104 megs in size. On the first time it was even less. I do have a theory though. It must be because of the low space I have on C drive, which apparently is the destination for some temp file the download is first being copied to. Oh well... either third time's the charm or I'll have to do some arranging of data.
