      I forget that most o' yall are youngins... So when will you start abusing your wife and children? (On that note: Curiously, the "Join Date" on the applications indicates that all of you joined in 1970.... )

      What were some questions that should have been asked on the application but were not? When the zombie-apocalypse hits, which fellow council candidate will you throw-under-the-bus first? When did you stop physically abusing your your wife and children?

      Lidren Q&A

      Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the Communist Party? (Sorry, Comr4de payed me to ask.) What were some questions you think the application should have asked, but did not? When did you stop trafficking in illegal drugs? (I have a whole bag full of silly & serious questions...)

      Do asteroids respawn ever?

      Those are all valid points. One major caution, though: Even the most fantastical of fantasies IS based on realism, veer too far and we might as well be playing "Hello Kitty Sings Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds."

      Do asteroids respawn ever?

      Well, I guess I'll weigh-in on this one... Asteroids should not respawn; however, there should be tons more of them to begin with (4 per sector, seriously??!), and some should come in bigger sizes. Limited resources are a fact of life. Think of all those fictional/non-fictional empires that...

      Let reason guide your votes, not just prominent names.

      Well, I'm glad this subject was brought-up by someone that the community likes/respects. (I considered making a similar thread, but figured I'd just catch Hell for it.) I really hope voters get your message, Drakkart. I wish I had more votes to give to counter-balance the "popularity-contest"...

      Square heads are sssoooooo 2014.... Really, Lecic, do we need to revoke your "Cool-dude" card ?!

      The game is much worse than it was a year ago for me

      To be completely honest, the official wiki is rather lacking on some subjects, needs updating to the most recent changes. But if I can figure stuff out, then anyone can... Tutorials, fora, unofficial sources -- it's like every other game today: There is no full manual. And if yer on the...

      Analyzing StarMade.

      Your points are valid, as usual, CyberTao. I'm aware that Schine personal are volunteers. I'm also aware that Councilors know full well that they are volunteers. I want this game to succeed. Still, a watchdog is not a bad thing.

      The council propaganda thread

      No one could possibly represent my opinion. That's not necessarily a bad thing, I'll grant... I would maintain that the council needs a mixture of old-timers, "experts", new voices, good "accountant" types, and original thinkers. All of whom need to be at least competent communicators...

      Analyzing StarMade.

      Well, many of you may be familiar with my unpopular opinions and oblique viewpoints. I will not disappoint here. If it is true that the forthcoming Intergalactic Council is a vehicle for keeping Schine abreast of the community's opinion and desired development/direction of the game, for...

      But but.... That would upset the weapons-linkage charts, and consume 537 block IDs, and cause Galactic Warming.... Oi vey! What a nightmare. (I will not mention my "agree" token. d'Oh! -- I mentioned it, dang-it!) If that is your "first suggestion", what is your second?

      Galactic System "Leakage"

      In my little desert-island galaxy, I currently call home a system with a binary star and far too many pirate stations -- but the excessive number of pirate stations is a separate matter. The issue here is that there is an adjacent system which "leaks" into/ overlaps mine. The "orbitals" of...

      The council propaganda thread

      No No No -- Bad Advice My conscience would force me to vote for myself.... And I'm not running, 'cause I would be a sucky representative of "majority opinion" ('cause they're usually wrong.) Better advice: Vote as if you had a properly functioning conscience. Best advice: Vote or vote not...

      Starmade and Degenerate Strategy

      Well, I'm not entirely sure if the in content of "Spoiler: This was much longer than expected" you were agreeing or disagreeing with me or just soliloquizing (or all of those!) Certainly worth the contemplation. Glad I'm a Noob-Corporal now and not just PFC-Noob or FNG ;) Also glad to know...

      A New "Wave" [Pirate Ship Community Contest]

      Ya know.... I was thinking (always dangerous, I know) that you really need MORE than 5 ships for your pirates. 'Cuz yer gunna get bored of the same group of 5 pretty quickly. I would think you'd need more like 8-10 Corvettes and 15-20 fighters, then get someone to make a mod to correctly...
