AQ/X02 - Crew Announcements and Discussions (OCC)

Reminder to players, especially those with telepathic characters or interacting with telepathic characters:

The Telepathic Guidelines state that unless the recipient is also from a compatible telepathic species, or there is an "Imzadi" type bond or some other exception has been approved, you cannot project thoughts into another being. That means you can't think to your colleague across the room unless it has been pre-established and approved that you and they can do so. This is in-line with established Trek canon.

There are also limits to what hybrid characters are capable of: a Vulcan/Betazoid hybrid, for example, would still be able to communicate telepathically with other telepaths and, probably, perform mind-melds. They would not, however, be able to read minds in the way a full Betazoid could - they're empaths rather than full telepaths in that sense.

I suggest people re-familiarise themselves with these guidelines; if anyone has any questions or concerns, please e-mail me or message me on Discord.

[Xenara Xardeen]

Just to be clear: I did mention this in my last post, but Xenara is only fully telepathic with Commander Sothrick due to his ability and their relationship. I'm still shocked his wife is cool with it. 

LOL

Xenara knows she can't have telepathic discussions with anyone else, BUT she knows they can still read her mind. So she can still "send" just not "recieve".

[Paul]

Just to be clear: I did mention this in my last post, but Xenara is only fully telepathic with Commander Sothrick due to his ability and their relationship. I'm still shocked his wife is cool with it. 

So...Xenara has an Imzadi bond with Sothrick? That's the only way it's possible, and is pretty messed up!

Xenara knows she can't have telepathic discussions with anyone else, BUT she knows they can still read her mind. So she can still "send" just not "recieve".

That would imply she knows people are reading her mind without permission, which is taboo for nearly all telepathic races. You'd also have to be thinking in a language Mala understood, as you can't translate thoughts. Your character is inviting someone to get slapped down by a member of their own species for rudeness.



Ultimately, when one person doesn't follow the rules, it makes things more difficult for me when other people follow their example. They exist for a reason. Failure to follow them now that this warning is out there does, and will, have consequences.

I get ya. And I am so stealing that Imzadi bit...and getting in SO much trouble...hehehe

[Kalli Thorn]

Wow! Where was this during the attempts to use it for crowd control? This is so exciting!

[Lois Lim]

Medical points ready to send, what's the URL for the Aquila points form, please?

[Xenara Xardeen]

Tactical points ready to send too.

[Shione Kurasa]

The points link is likely not set up yet
Perhaps PM them to the First Officer Cdr Velaul?

Does that work?

[Xenara Xardeen]

Points to Slytherin! Oh wait wrong franchise...

Well, the Captain could just give us all full points this month considering the mess we're in...

[Alexander Talion]

Yes, do we even have a form page setup for points?

I also haven't seen my Science Officer and a quick check says they haven't posted since 4 March...soooo...that might be a thing...

[Shione Kurasa]

Just so the newbies know

Are we NOW allowed to post with the Charon crew?

[Jay D'Mar]

Email to FO with medical points.

[Lois Lim]

Opps!!!! Medical points email is coming from LCdr Lim.

[Shione Kurasa]

Security Points emailed to FO

[Daniel Brooks]

Hey Crew,

Yes email your points in to the FO and next time cc me in just in case one of us isn't around to do the points.

Cheers

[Daniel Brooks]

Hey Crew,

Please welcome aboard, Midshipman Coppola who will be joining us in the Tactical Department!

[Xenara Xardeen]

[Cologero Coppola]

Thank you all for the welcome I will cook for all of you all one day, but the replicator food won't be as good anymore lol

[Alexander Talion]

Doctor Lim, it would appear that you have a patient in Sickbay, taking advantage of morning Sick Call. Your first day on duty is likely to get rather busy with visitors.

[Xenara Xardeen]

Hopefully no one is going to risk life and LIM on their first day...

[Xenara Xardeen]

Nice!

[Kalli Thorn]

Dashing? Odd, he didn't strike me as a sprinter.

Look at this! We're already on our second page in Ten Forward and haven't even started the new mission yet. I've got to say that I like the trend this is setting.

Xenara, you have your introduction. The ball is in your court.

Careful about wanting to share those "wild stories", if you wish for something, sometimes, for your sins, you get what you ask for...mwahahahah...ah-hem...sorry, that just sort of slipped out...

[Xenara Xardeen]

The biggest thing I've learned from watching horror is you gotta be pretty dang specific with those wishes. lol

[Daniel Brooks]

Sorry that I've not been flooding the threads with my normal level of word craft, but this month has been full of grandkids and roadtrips.

I want to thank everyone for their condolences on my brother's passing. I have shared your kind words with my family and they said to express their thanks, we appreciate your kindness. He was a huge Star Trek fan as well especially the Klingons. He shared this with me a few days before he passed.

[Shione Kurasa]

Mala: Great link and a terrific way to remember his sense of humor.


Security Points are in

[T'Kol]

Oh wow, I wish we could have met him as well. But love the link!

[Artemis d'Tor'an]

Hi Aquilla crew! I'm popping in here to let you know that I'm going to try and update EVERYONE'S bios (on the whole site!) in the upcoming weeks.


Please check your bio on the wiki, and the quick-bio on the forum, and make sure everything's correct & updated. Keeping your own character's bio up to date is so important, as it helps document the things your character has done and has been through, and if it's not there, it's kind of a "pics or it didn't happen" thing. 


So, please remember to send an email to either your Captain (your ship's personal & awesome wiki person), or me, the "Wiki Witch" (as is my very-astute nickname, lol) at FSContinuity@gmail.com, before I have to unleash my witchy powers! *wiggles fingers at you all*

[Shione Kurasa]

Been a busy weekend will look to get a post up tomorrow
Sorry to keep folks waiting
Summer can get complicated at times

[Jez Mala]

Mala: Great link and a terrific way to remember his sense of humor.

  He had a great sense of humor, He loved his Klingons. I helped him design his socket for his prostetic, we put the Klingon symbol on it, it was a real conversation starter.

[Sothrick]

Email to CO. and FO

[Shione Kurasa]

Apologies for lack of recent posting
I have been sick
Hoping to be feeling better soon

[Alexander Talion]

Email sent to CO/GM

[Shione Kurasa]

Man when you're sick for a week there's a big load to catch up on!!

Looking to get post(s) in today , be patient

[Daniel Brooks]

At least it will keep you from getting bored

[Lois Lim]

I'm putting this here so everyone will be aware. I have been very sick for the past couple of weeks, I'm still not out of the woods but I am getting better slowly. I still find it hard to concentrate, especially reading computer screens, thus not much posting from me. I'm trying to catch up on any important posts, I hope I haven't stuffed things up with my current post.

Captain, if I don't post on time sensitive stuff, I give you permission to post for my character. I will try to keep up but it just depends on how things go.

[Daniel Brooks]

For the Away Team I have set up the Away Missions Thread.

[Shione Kurasa]

My plan was to post and get things started; but I had a bit of an awful afternoon and gonna wait til tomorrow

Apologies

[Jez Mala]

I picked a really bad time to visit Florida. I'm in Florida looking at the Nursing program at the University in Gainsville and of course Hurricane Debby decided to pay Florida a visit. As of this posting I'm safe, we have power, but from what I understand that could change. High Winds and lots of rain predicted.

[Shione Kurasa]

My post in the Away team thread prioritizes each player specifying their location at the top of their posts. This could become a complex response and the GM will need our help

==Bridge==
==Engineering== etc
This is necessary to assist the GM in making rulings for each team and they can employ the same to keep the GM aware

Good luck everyone

[Shione Kurasa]

Looking to play catch up tomorrow It's been a busy week w family

[Beno Velaul]

It's a bit early for this, but its advanced warning. Time to submit thoes point recommendations, and RPGER. Don't forget to send points, and Vote to myself and the good Captain

[Shione Kurasa]

My apologies for being behind on posting but it has been an insane week

Looking to catch up on Sunday

[Lois Lim]

Points email on its way to CO and FO.

[Cornelius Hoekstra]

Points sent

[Shione Kurasa]

Points and RPGer

Better late than never

Sorry

[Jez Mala]

My deepest apologies for not postibng. I work for a major airline and this past week has been insane, College kids going back to school, Summer travelers and of course the Labor Day travelers, has me running ragged.

[T'Kol]

I too have to apologize for lack of posting this last week.

Been in out of Hospitals all week but after tomorrow I will be free'ed up a bit.

[Lois Lim]

Sorry Dr Troy... Just been preoccupied with lots of other things. Seeing that I wrote my characters injuries, there is no need for the GM to be involved, I'll be the GM for this little section. I thought it would be good to post together sometimes.

[Daniel Brooks]

Hey crew, sorry for delay in responses but had the news that my sons school could possibly be closed two days after he started for the first time next year. It isn't the only one, it's one of five. We are trying to protest and petition it but our council here is very corrupt. Two years ago they had other schools on the list but it been changed in the last couple of months as it is now only the schools where the council and our MP don't have kids. Trying to tell us it is because birth rates are down and they are predicting the general decline over the next few years.
