We're a GO people!
Some facts:
Mission details: http://www.ussderuyter.com/index.php/sim/missions
Sasha / Thomas: Not experiencing the timeloop, we are outside the ship.
Rest of the crew: Looping like hell. Your day starts at 0800, like ours, and when we switch the day (me or thomas) you start all over again.. but this time we will be around, so we might have to explain everything to you guys again. Which will be fun. Also, at some point we will break the loop partially, where you will remember everything that has happened in previous loops, like Groundhog Day - but not yet! For now, play dumb.
Start postin'.
CO, USS de Ruyter.
» Update 2.0.3a
Posted on Fri Apr 6th, 2012 @ 1:54pm by Captain Chiellon Nerevaryn in Website Update
Update 2.0.3a
- Removed another set of Obsidian Fleet stuff. Probably more out there.
- Set Chiellon's rank to Commanding Officer (MIA) A whole mission will revolve around finding him.
- Now that we are no longer Obsidian I can make some changes to the Majestic Specifications.
- Uploaded new mission, closed the old one.
Majestic Changes:
- We're classed as a frigate, not a cruiser - so changing the dimensions to be more like a frigate. Right now we're 357m long, which is bigger than the USS Voyager, a cruiser.
- Majestic Class is now 285 metres long, 136 metres wide and 47 metres high.
- Majestic Class now has 12 deck instead of 15.
- Majestic Class now has 1 shuttlebay instead of 2, but a larger one.
- Majestic Class now has 1 less Type-9 shuttle.
- All other shuttles/craft remain unchanged.
- Ship Specifications and Ship History pages updated accordingly.

Ok, we're good to go, the site is ready.
I would like everyone to make changes to their characters now, or make a new character - however they see fit.
The new mission will start roughly 2 to 3 years after the current one, abruptly ending it - premise details will follow tomorrow.
I for one will be making a new character to take over command with and find a nice way to 'bonjour' Chiellon in the coming posts. Reading back I really don't like the character anymore.
So, start fresh or finetune - I will upload (ie: make up) a new mission tomorrow.
Any suggestions, PM me or hit me on Facebook. I'm open for anything on how to handle this 2 to 3 year jump.
Oh and for those who didn't knew yet (Corne, lol). You cannot deny this call to arms to the de Ruyter, you must participate. :)
Cheers.

The Gryphon runabout protested heavily under the stressful conditions. They had just penetrated another starship’s warp-bubble.. or whatever the de Ruyter was using. Part of the problem was the fact that the ship appeared to be traveling at luminal speed outside of subspace.
