Goodie!

...to include our posting guidelines on the first page.

I have set the table for Gavison, MacTavish, and White to begin posting. As far as that goes, the rest of you may do so, as well. Don't get too involved, though - we'll be picking up the new mission right away.

Weeee're back!!!

lol, i've been hyped up for this to start sense you asked me to join ^^ now..

I'm lost....I don't even know where my character is, let alone what she might be doing...

No problem. I've sent you a PM.

Where is the engineering station on the bridge? I think it is the one closest to the turbolift but I am not sure.

Layout: The current standard Galaxy Class layout is as follows. In the center is Command area with three common seats, for the Captain, the Executive Officer to his right, and the Counselor to his left. Further out from these are two more seats that can be used by VIP or other non-stationed personnel.

At the front of the bridge is the Conn, starboard, and Operations, port, stations. Conn is the combination of Helm and Navigation, and Operations controls and monitors most vital ship functions. Operations is commonly in control of sensors aboard Galaxy Class starships.

Behind the Command area is the Tactical Rim. Here is the Primary and two Auxiliary Tactical stations. All tactical and security functions can be controlled and monitored from this point.

On the back wall from port to starboard are Engineering, Environment, Mission Operations, Science I, and Science II. These five stations are normally unmanned. The Chief Engineer is in Main Engineering, Environment & Mission Operations can be controlled at the Operations console, and Science I & Science II are the science department's presence on the Bridge. However, normally the Chief Science Officer [if the ship has one] is not a Bridge Officer. The position is a management and authority one, meant to control all the sub-departments which do their work in the various labs on board the ship. It is not uncommon however for some Chief Science Officers to conduct their business directly on the Bridge.

In the case of the Discovery, the captain has standing orders which require the presence of at least one science officer, one security officer, and one engineering officer on the bridge at all times in addition to the normal personnel.

port to starboard .....

Left to right?

Port is left, Starboard is right...

Easy way to remember "Port" has 4 letters and so does "left".

I was think that Port is a drink and in proper circles you always pass the Port to the left.

But your way works as well.

Don't forget that deck 1 (bridge) also has a medical station. Typical first aid stuff, but it's where you'll find White, Cinna, or at extreme times Dr. Wash. It's rare anyone else is trusted enough to man that station during first shift.

If Gavison has drank enough port he might be found underneath the captain's chair singing softly to himself.

...it's because there's no Scoth left. Besides, port tends to make the man gooshy and he doesn't wanna accidentally pen a love song about Gavison.

Mac gooshy! Riiiiiiight!

White's been busy apparently.

Taking care of mommy and baby Gavison, continually tryin to get Mac on BP meds...
