You know what I noticed?

[richardson]

Why would I need a transwarp hub? I've got a trasnwarp gate nearly completed, and I've got a transwarp capible Firebird class heavy cruiser in my backyard propped up on blocks while I get the landing gear fixed.

[Chancellor Valium]

You poor, impoverished thing. *I* have a Gallifreyan TT Capsule Type 40 mark III - the one with ALL the stylish trimmings. I keep it in Phantom II continental mode - it fits the mood of it - an over-the-top and damn fantastic car....or time capsule.

[richardson]

Did I also mention my sports ship? A brand new connie type B, with less than 10,000 lightyears on it? One sweet ship, as soon as I figure out what the annoying bug in the warp drive is.

[Chancellor Valium]

Ahh, the constitution class. Give me the space-time trail coordinates for it and I'll materialise n give you a hand....It's probably just the syncromesh playing up....luckily, the Phantom II continental doesn't have syncromesh

[richardson]

Nope, it doesn't have one of those, whatever they are. Actually, you wouldn't know what the heck is up, my baby is a prototype replacement connie (Type B) she's got things never seen in the old connies, and she's got the best looks of both the new era and the old.

Plus a good 150 meters extra length.

[Chancellor Valium]

The Kep Salu? It'll be the injection system. It's ALWAYS the injection system on the Kep Salu. or syncromesh. Without syncromesh, you have to match a vehicle's revs to it's speed to change gear. the Phantom II continental is a Rolls-Royce from the 1930s. Hence it has no syncromesh. :wink:

[richardson]

This ain't the original kep salu, the is the Kep Salu 2, my brand spankin new flag ship and command battlecruiser/carrier. Actually, there is a lot more bugs I gotta work out. One of the nacells popped off this morning. :?

[PointyHairedJedi]

You didn't buy it from a suspicious looking Ferengi, did you?

Heck, what am I saying, they're all suspicious looking.

[richardson]

Buy it from a ferinigi? That's seriously low man. I am the ferengi's biggest compeditor. Built her from scratch way out beyond the federation borders.

Considering producing them for starfleet......

[Chancellor Valium]

This wouldn't happen to look like the recently-disappeared Excelsior, now would it?

[PointyHairedJedi]

Actually, it was just misplaced. Though nothing to do with me of course. No siree.

Um, has anyone seen a Galaxy-class ship lying around? I know I put it down just a minute ago...

[richardson]

Nope. Think the connie look, then blow it up to the size of the ambassador class and put in some of the best of the sovvies.

[Chancellor Valium]

Pointy.....the transwarp drive doesn't work. and anyhoo they removed it and replaced it with a conventional warp drive, when transwarp proved crazy.

[richardson]

Yeah, but this is about a century later. We've gotten some hints from the borg technology we've salvaged, and though we've got some major bugs in it, it still works.....

for distances less than a lightyear...... :lol:

Kinda ironic isn't it?

[Chancellor Valium]

True. But your time travel is still a little.....crude.....At least I'm still ahead in that respect.....

[richardson]

Oh, you mean the whole "Sling-shot around a star" thing? Well, I know where to get ahold of a temporal drive, but then, I'd have the temporal police on my tail and *Head explodes from paradox, don't ask what type.*

[MaverickZer0]

At least you only have to deal with the temporal stuff. Playing around with other universes gives me a headache. Especially when there's time travel too.

Plus, there's always the Stargate. And you can always Cyberstream Transfer onto the net and...

I've said too much as it is...


Kami-sama! What's that huge purple thing?

Yoink!

[Chancellor Valium]

Perhaps. but the TARDIS remains the best form of space-time travel unit. And parallel universes ARE a bother, especially in the Vortex, cuz repairing the rip is a bugger. Still, what can you do, eh? At least my TARDIS is stylishly done up....
