Nah, it was the wish of many in the community to have a random distribution mode, so thanks to Malin for the work and efforts! It's a pity being full time employee and now full time teacher too (of three kids whose schools are closed), ... No time for games.

The Ur-Quan Masters Re-Release / Technical Issues / Forum pw recovery

Dear all,
I had some issues with my password (basically forgot the exact version of my password).
I tried a few times. A few days later I tried again. Then I asked the system for a password reset, but never received a mail. I asked multiple times in the course of nearly a month, but never once received a mail. And yes, I did check my spam folders, mutiple times.
Imtried again and again,
Today I finally guessed he correct version, but still.
Since this is an old version of the forum software, and it's not highly frequented, I wonder if the system broke without anyone noticing, whether it's intentionally not sending mails, and whether anyone will ever try to upgrade the software.
Also, do new forum members receive their activation mail? Because if that's broken too, "we" will have a hard time finding new members.

Liiike, what the drone says to you when you approach Earth? Attention interloper - heed this recorded message! This drone-vessel speaks with the voice and authority of the Ur-Quan. You are trespassing within Ur-Quan space. This world, Earth, may not be approached for any reason. Nor will hostilities against our orbital platform be tolerated. In addition, your ship does not respond to standard Hierarchy identification transmissions and is therefore deemed to be independent. This is not permissible -- only subservience shall be tolerated. This drone now leaves to inform the Ur-Quan of your transgressions. You are commanded to remain here and await the arrival of the Ur-Quan. Disobedience will be punished. Another one I like (because it's just one example of the Ur-Quan love for understatements): Uh oh. It is as though your species' brain is too small to hold a simple thought such as, WE WILL KILL YOU FOR DISOBEYING! This is not a complex idea. edit:or play the audio files of a Pkunk recharging...

Oh, I used the Kohr-Ah words "We did. You did. Yes we can. No.", without context, telling the person that these words make perfect sense when talking to a homicidal maniac. But even if you add the statement(s) beforehand, it does lure people. (And I lured that person before Obama hijacked a part of this slogan for his campaign.) You have attacked us before, and we survived! You cannot defeat us. Submit! We did. You did. Yes we can. No. Also, if your friend will not play, he'll never truly understand the meaning of "Cowabunga!"... Which would be sad. So thank you for spreading "Juffo-Wup" in his direction, to Void the Non. But by now (s)he'll just assume you're *spitting* *shiny* *words*. And don't forget to mention there'll be plenty of *dancing*, and that (s)he should enjoy *squeezing* *the juice*.

I fully agree. A Mael-Num cuddle would be awesome.
Yes, the lore was extensive for such a game, but also purposefully cut short at certain limits, to allow the player's imagination to fill in. Hence my fear that no follow-up game could ever get to fulfil expectations.
Lorewise, SC3 (by a different maker) did well, but closed too many storylines, and left not enough open to interpretation. Some elements of SC3 I really liked, (just like I disliked many) but that's a different topic.
