NEWS: Screenshot of the week!

EmperorJon · Post by **EmperorJon** » Mon, 11. Jan 10, 20:27

This thread was being a bit buggy earlier, but it's ok now.

So, who do I email my trumpcard to to finally end Terre's streak next week?

Oh, you say, he's so cocky thinking he's got something actually good, I mean, what did he have before? Only a Shrike with an advert board...

Take a look at this baby, been saving it for a while. If you want I'll do another with a better ship... or any ship you request. But the Discoverer turned out quite nicely:

Emailing Ogerboss would be good. I really like the ship. It looks like it's glowing because the heat of that sun.

Is that outside the hub?

"An advert board"? What did it say? - "Stop me and die once"

(For those that remember the old ice cream vans with "Stop me an buy one" slogan.)

Back on topic, not an ice cream van - but a Paranid Deimos.

That was the idea!

EDIT: Where can I find Ogerboss's email?

EDIT2: Trying it with different ships, I might eventually come up with a best setup. Argon seems to look best. Most other ships aren't reflective enough, haven't got a reflection as good as the Disco again, but I did get a nice glwoing orange outline on some ships:

Autopilot: 'Warning... entering atmosphere... OF A SUN!'

*Ship burns quickly with glowing edges!*

From his profile. Mouse over the 'E-Mail' button and the link it gives will be his e-mail address (eg. If you're using Google Chrome, mouse over it and it displays the e-mail address in the bottom left).

On another note, I vote Terre should go on holiday indefinitely so that others get a chance.

@Technojerk: you have to email Ogerboss to really submit.

Paris Hilton: That's hot!

Terre seems to play like an explorer, looking for good views rather than profitsss.

Is he the Japanese tourist of the X world? Gets his camera out every time he sees something interesting...

And gets credit for it!

EDIT: 'Is he' not 'I she'

One of these will be next SotW, I'd bet on it.

I wouldn't bet on that.

But Oger has to decide and not me this time.

The ACS(May Rename to ACCS or Ares Corp Capital Ship) Shaman rolls out of Zyarths Dominion's ship yard.

She's Ares Corps first capital ship and will serve as a mobile base for the growing corporation as well as facilitate in future station construction. However Ares corp has no plans of building massive 50+ station complexes and will instead focus on smaller non complex stations and small 5-10 station max complexes.

Low atmospheric orbit!

Ok, yes, this is in the Galaxy editor, I couldn't resist.

'The ATF Flagship Valhalla cannot usually be found by visitors to Terran space... That's because it can be found in a low atmospheric orbit, and acts as a halfway station between the Orbital Lift and the Torus. Scanning for AGI in goods taken to and from Earth!'

And now for the screenshot itself.
