Touche.
Also funny enough to earn an applaud, thus voiding my smite.

Yesterday was a record day for the Inn in terms of traffic. We broke 2k visitors for the day, and had better than 9.3k page views. 
A large part of this was due to both comics updating, and the fact that reddit liked them both. Hopefully, we'll start to see more of that traffic coming back... maybe even posting with us!

Welcome to the Inn! sorry you have had bad experiences in the past... hopefully, your luck will change here.
Play by post games are especially useful for those of us who live in the middle of nowhere/have little to no time to play tabletop. Drop on by the recruitment forums and see if you can find an opening to a game that sounds interesting to you.

It does not tell me who voted down. I infer up votes from when people tell me here that they voted.
I think you are probably right, Alacrity. Gag strips probably will do better there. Our net votes are now the same (+2), but the LD strip is 4 up, 2 down, while MADS is 7 up, 5 down.

As far as that goes, I don't think anyone is terribly worried over which terminal or exact section of hallway is in question. Feel free to take creative license, here! sure, some things are pretty set in stone - the location of the bridge, main engineering, sickbay, the department head offices... but feel free to improvise as need be.

The new MADS is currently outperforming the new Loaded Dice in terms of overall visits, even though LD has a much larger "regular" following. Why?
Two more points in reddit. +4 for MADS, +2 for LD.
Okay, I stop harping now.

Two up votes, two down votes. I firmly believe that a huge percentage of reddit users live to vote stuff down.

Stardate: 2368.04.10
USS Discovery, captain’s ready room – 1020
The Discovery’s captain frowned sourly at his PADD. Time in port, especially the time just before launch, contained a hugely disproportionate amount of paperwork when compared to the rest of a tour. Blair was itching to get underway, and the endless administrative tasks only served to augment the feeling. It wasn’t as if the crew had been given the opportunity for decent shore leave; there was little to be done on Starbase 128 that couldn’t be done aboard the Discovery - the station’s holosuites were out of date compared to what a galaxy class vessel could offer.
The past couple of days had seen reports begin to steadily amp up, and the last hour and a half had been mostly dedicated to Gavison’s transfer – which had put the Captain behind on reviewing the various transfer orders. Besides the obvious missing headliner – who the new XO would be – Noah knew that he would be replacing two department heads. Doc White had left as soon as they had docked, making his retirement official (and taking a large number of medical crew with him, presumably into private practice). Lieutenant Raines had accepted a transfer to Starbase 212, which allowed him to be close to the Keely girl. A lot of turnover in two years, he mused. Jack MacTavish had been the only real constant among the Discovery’s senior officers. However, such was a life in Starfleet; he could hardly begrudge any of them the chance to better their careers and lives.
So let’s see what we have, Blair mused.
The first record was the new chief medical officer – a Lieutenant Commander Solkar. Overall, the Vulcan had a brilliant service record, but something incongruous near the end of the data caught the Captain’s eye. Received reprimand for failure to secure a medicine storage unit.
That seemed an odd reprimand to be levied against a senior department head. Surely the care of storage units would fall on a junior officer or an enlisted tech? Furthermore, the reprimand was shortly followed by Solkar’s transfer to the Discovery. It would seem that there was more to this story than met the eye…
Noah’s mouth was set in a thin line as he considered the possibilities, when the chime sounded.
“Come,” he answered, trying to keep the irritation out of his voice. The hatch hissed open to reveal a dark-skinned, blue-eyed Vulcan dressed in medical blues with lieutenant commander’s pips. “Commander Solkar, I presume?” Blair asked by way of greeting.
OOC: assuming an affirmative response…
“Welcome aboard the Discovery, doctor. Please, take a seat.” Noah offered a hand to shake, then gestured to a chair across from his desk.
OOC: assuming he does so…
“I trust that you have found everything that you need so far. Your service record indicates that you are well qualified for this posting, though it seems that you had had issues with equipment in the past?”
OOC: leaving it up to Solkar if he wishes to breech any of this at this time. If so, I will edit Blair’s responses to fit accordingly.
The Captain nodded. “You will find me to be a hands-off commanding officer – you are an expert in your field, and I will give you free reign to manage your own responsibilities as you see fit. That being said,” he continued, “if you have need of me, my door is always open.”
OOC: allowing for a reponse. If there are no other topics…
“Very well,” Blair concluded. “I’m sure that you have enough duties to attend to, so I will not keep you any longer, doctor. Again, welcome aboard the Discovery.”

No worries says the guy with half a dozen posts to my one. 
Anyway, my post will bump us ahead to launch date (or at least lay the groundwork for doing so). Folks can backpost, of course, but we'll be ready to move out.
