Background info:

Each character who decides to participate should come up with a small backstory. You're welcome to be anything from a civilian up to the rank of Lieutenant. From there, you will work your way farther by participating in both in-game, and forum RPs.

We will also suggest a rank based on your RP abilities, and of course, we will help in any way we can!

Your next step is to figure out how to make hasperat soufflé.

Looksgood! Aww the mogai warbird wants a bite of it too! OM NOM NOM

One other things which I think is a good starter are boff powers. You can buy them cheap, at a couple thousand EC - either at the Boff trainer at the academy or by buying cheap boffs on the exchange (or getting boffs through doff missions) and turning them into a manual. The market seems very inefficient right now, because many of those powers, which can be easily obtained, actually sell at the exchange in the range of 100 thousand EC.

There are also elite ground queues, which give salvaged tech to sell....

Crafting, crafting, crafting.

Sell stuff the rich players want. Because getting EC from the game (vendors or tour the galaxy) will keep your income at whatever maximum Cryptic wanted it to be several years ago. Rich players, though, have EC to throw your way instantly.

What to craft? Gear can make money. Rich players want good mods. That means [pen] [crtd]x3, [pen] [dmg]x3, [dmg]x4, or [crtd]x4 for weapons. Make mk ii, use a superior upgrade kit with a research boost (2x) and it'll go UR or gold with one kit and you can see if the mods are worth taking it to mk xiv with. For other gear, you'll just have to make it and check the exchange.

Superior upgrade kits are simpler, steady source of income.

I don't pay for the game so I can only have 10mln EC

I don't pay for the game but still have more than that :) I would have to check my inventory to get a more precise number, but I would estimate my current worth at about 8 billion EC.

Buying the EC cap increase is one the first things you should be doing - and no, it doesn't require real money. You pay with zen, which you can buy from other players from dilithium. You can't get serious about accumulating wealth if you're stuck at 10 million cap. Many items I sell bring more profit than that.

To what was already mentioned (sell stuff you get from the missions, tour the galaxy, crafting high level items, sell keys) I would also add:
- check the exchange for opportunities. Quite often people would list various items at a fraction of their market value. Buy and relist at a higher price. That's how I actually make most of my money.
- get missions that give contraband. You can either directly sell it on the exchange (at a range of 40-45k per piece) or turn it into dilithium, dilithium to zen, buy keys and sell them (which is more profitable but takes more times and requires you do spend your dilithium on a specific item rather than investing in other things you might be interested in).
- get missions that give you doffs. Every one you can. You can buy prisoners in a 4-6k range, and then exchange them to normal doffs through a mission. You can buy white doffs (if you don't have any) (20-25k) and exchange them to a higher quality ones in the Alpha sector. You can get refugees and use them in Asylum missions all across the galaxy. You will normally get a higher quality doff, often a blue one, which you can then sell on the exchange - and some specializations sell at really high prices (blue Technicians would normally give you several million EC for example, blue Research or Fabrication sell for around one million). Even if you only get a green doff, it's still a profit.

Thanks Brandon i will forward you what i want to say.

I don't pay for the game so I can only have 10mln EC and no other means of earning them than in game. I did Tour the Galaxy and I also look for some nice stuff on the exchange. For example I noticed that some medical rare or very rare modules are posted for much less than they are worth and usually bought for. I keep now my account at aroun 8mln and I have a rare mk xiii triage to sell when I drop below 3mln :) Just keep an eye on such deals.

I had hoped to make it to this, but due to the time difference and work commitments as such, i wont be able to attend this.

Is it possible to convey messages to someone to speak on our behalf as something what i would have wanted to say at this summit?

I can read what you write. Feel free to email me.

Cheers,

Brandon =/\=

Bah, everyone knows the only valid religion is the dark side of the force! I'm not going to get too worked up about it. As she was in jail William Smith Jr. and James Yates were issued their marriage license. So yay!

I actually remember that, though the Atari 2600 was the first system my family had, I had some months before played Pong at someone's house. Before that, I saw arcade games about and didn't understand that moving the joystick during the demo wasn't actually playing. What can I say, I was like 7. :)

Name: Aikune
Alias: The Borg Tsar
Department: Section 31
Post: Director
Mission: Management and operations of Section 31
Vessel: Various
Species: Betazed-Human
Age: 30

In public the Director of Section 31 was only interested in the security and prosperity of the new Terran Empire. He publicly announced the hunt and executions of dissidents and those who would even breathe a measure of revolt against the Empire. In reality he was probably the Empire’s biggest threat.

He’s a Betazed, but even by Betazed standard his psychic abilities was intensely powerful. He was taken from his parent at a young age was tested and forced to develop his abilities to dangerous levels. He killed and drove insane his first 4 handlers before his fifth, a Vulcan slave named Tosak, used his own mental prowess to somewhat temper Aikune’s abilities.

At the age of 15 a group of armed rebels stormed the facility Aikune was kept in and attempted to use him as a weapon against the empire. They used several empaths enhanced with implants stolen from the Borg to enhance their abilities. For a time they were able to control Aikune only because he let them. He used the forced connection to float though their subconscious and even going so far as finding a hidden Borg ship deep in the Empire’s Teritory.

Realizing this threat, Aikune assumed control not only of himself but most of the rebel empaths as well. Among them a Romulan named Sondheim and an Orion named Elphaba. And in an instant the rebellion was put down. Aikune was hailed as a hero of the Empire and was given a ship to better serve the emperor.

He took his fleet to hunt down the Borg Cube that he discovered while his consciousness was detached from his body. The cube was indeed on route to Earth for an unknown reason and Aikune didn’t intend to wait to find out. But he also saw an opportunity for the Empire and an even greater one for him. He used the Borg implant and connected his consciousness to the Borg cube he activated the tertiary adjunct of the cube Eight of Ten and began taking command of the Cube.

Once Aikune had complete control of the cube he began showing a greater interest in Eight of Ten. He had always admired and perhaps even aroused by the Borg. He began experimenting on Eight of Ten and learned the entirety of what the Empire knows of the Borg and even more that he kept for himself. He took what he felt the Empire Should know and gave it to them and used the rest to hunt down and acquire various ships from a multitude of species. He outfit them with stolen Borg technology and was known by the enemies of the Empire as the Borg Tsar, as the crew of his ships were either Borg or partially assimilated, and he would be safe with in his enclave on Earth.

Through his victories earned him tremendous political capital that he used to gain him the position of Section 31. He argues that his fleet would help him maintain the security of the empire because they would allow his ability to reach though all corners of the empire.

Several years into his rule over Section 31 he came across an anomaly. A temporal destroyer on route from 2020 to 2409 encounter a temporal fissure and the reaction with its damaged chroniton regulator created a copy of the ship and its crew, the original was able to return to its destination, however the copy was sent to Aikune’s universe. To Aikune’s surprise the captain of the temporal destroyer was himself. Aikune converged all his ships to the temporal destroyer’s location and quickly overwhelmed and disabled the ship. He assimilated the crew but left the captain, himself alive.

Aikune interrogated his doppelganger and quickly learned that on an even level both of them was equally matched telepathically but thanks to Borg technology he was able to subdue and command his double. He kept the event and everything he gained a secret even from the empire, the crew that had some severance of free will was threatened with days in the agony chamber if they told the secret.

He took command of the ship and discovered in it’s ready room an unlit torched. Inscribed on it was “The Games of the XXXII Olympiad Tokyo 2020”. He replicated it and displayed it lit as a trophy. He kept the ship slightly out of temporal phase so any ship passing by would think they just detected an interesting but fleeting anomaly before they were ambushed. Aikune realizing the potential and power began to plan and he began to design the overthrow of the emperor and crown himself Tsar.

I'm a sworn police officer... but three years ago, my uncle encouraged me to convert to Buddhism. My religion embodies a philosophy of pacifism, so unfortunately, while I can conduct investigations, I can't arrest or revoke people's freedoms, no matter what atrocities they've committed or how dangerous they are to the public. I have the right to freedom of religion, so instead of admitting that I'm no longer able to fulfill the obligations of my job, I'm just going to continue collecting a paycheque funded by the hard working, tax paying members of the public, if that's okay with you all.

Same rationale. Except this sounds ridiculous. Nobody would support it. Somehow work Christianity into the mix, and I'll have a GoFundMe page and a million bucks of conservative money.

I don't feel anger toward this person, but she's definitely milking this.

A) There's nothing to cook! It's super simple!

B) If you put hot peppers in the brine when you pickle the cabbage, you can just use those instead of banana peppers. I just forgot until I went to assemble everything so I substituted. But I HIGHLY recommend the roasted red peppers!!


And Gagh.... I'll think about it. Obviously nothing alive.

Quote by Rasilek

She's an elected official, so the only way she can be removed from her position is through a vote on impeachment by the state congress, which in a state like KY that is deeply conservative...that just won't happen.

She's said she won't quit, and she'll sit in jail "for as long as it takes."

There are times for religious debate and everyone has a right to their beliefs. But Kim Davis is an officer of the government, and you just have to cut through the bullshit and say "Hey. You took an oath, and part of that oath is doing your job while following the law. You're doing neither, and you're ignoring a precedent set by the highest fucking court in the land. You can do your job, or you can resign or go to jail."

So for now, jail it is while she stands firm and won't resign.

Just another sadly misguided person that does not want to come out of their little conservative bubble. Sad.

Exactly... so should we send her a gift basket and stuff for her duration in jail?

Dont everyone put your hand up all at once now..
