Foundry missions are off the table for three reasons:

1. Cryptic's developers are professionals who have gotten paid for making these missions. As Voleron said, they can take a bit of roasting. Foundry authors are, by and large, NOT pro developers who have created something purely as a labor of love. It's mean spirited to go after them.

2. Additionally, a lot of missions are loathed due to technical issues or bugs, some of which have existed for YEARS. A foundry author can do nothing about a game-stopping bug, but Cryptic has that power whether or not they exercise it.

3. Pretty much everyone here has played every storyline mission multiple times. I've played a handful of foundry missions, but not all. To keep these 'reviews' entertaining for all members, let's keep them focused on the main story arcs.


Reminder: I'm looking for these reviews to be FUNNY and WITTY and not MEAN, especially as your challenge is to write a positive review of the mission. Sarcasm is encouraged. Cattiness is not, and catty entries will not receive a pizza roll.

I would say 'yes' out of respect for the authors who work hard on their missions. Cryptic on the other hand, has broad shoulders and can take a little bit of playful criticism ;)

I imagine Foundry missions are off the table. Because maybe that would be just a little too shady.

Haha this seems almost tempting. I sense that two missions in particular would be the focus of this competition and I think we all know which two.

To commemorate my glorious return to STO and everyone replaying storyline missions with their Delta Recruit alts, I've decided to hold a contest for all my lovely fleeties. Everyone is eligible to enter and there will be a PRIZE!!!!*

NOTE: This little contest is in no way created or endorsed by Stonewall Fleet.

Here's my challenge:

Everyone has that one (or more than one!) mission they just hate running. Pick a mission you absolutely HATE. Then, write a review of it as if it is the best mission in the game. Talk it up! Tell us all what's so "great" about it. Post it here for us all to marvel at. The funniest review (as selected by yours truly) will win a PRIZE!!!!*

You have until April 30 to post here, because that's my 30th birthday. 30 ON 30, WHAT. I'll pick a winner then while getting progressively more drunk and lamenting my lost youth. You can enter as many times as you want.

*This prize is not guaranteed to be good. It is also not guaranteed to not be good. But you will get at least one thing in the game itself. Perhaps I will send you a box of goodies in the mail if you don't mind sending me your address and/or postage isn't going to kill me. I could pull a Bilbo Baggins and give everyone a prize just for showing up. WHO KNOWS? But it will be wonderful.

So what you are saying is that even Neelix's eyes were annoying. I'm trying to decide of Neelix or Harry Kim is the Jar Jar Binks of the Star Trek Universe.

Wesley Crusher! :lol:

Depending on which part of Australia depends on the timezone but our resident Auz Admiral it starts 1am his time till about 10.30am

Yep not sure if I will be on for the start of the festivities but I'll give it my best (+8 GMT here in Perth, Australia).

I have seriously considered going this year. The real issue is having the money to go and stay in a room, plus acquiring the costume I want to wear AND then still having lots of spending money for food and niceties. I want to do the Captain's package, I just don't know if it is feesable yet.

yeah, I'm in america, but I live with an aussie schedule mostly (wake in the afternoon, sleep around dawn)

Is that the cool Alienware console computer thingy? I was looking at one of those when I bought my Area 51.

The event is covered throughout the American day, depending on what times you are usually awake you should be able to attend some of the events.

Are you in Auz??

I hope there's some way I can either attend, or catch an "afterparty" set up for aussie time.

Here's my gamer pad when the pub is closed :D
I use an ASUS 2014 windows 8 :) I'm not tech savvy so there's my stats lol



Edit: please ignore my sideway image :D i tried to upload it on my iPad and it turns all images sideways...

Magic leaks and flows through the world, it is not without reason that the right person could absorb different types of magic and refine each on to suit their purposes/needs.

Kudos on a great theory!

I made a Deltan (Alien) named Persis who is an Engineer. It's what came to mind every time I heard "Delta Recruit". Yes, I have an oddly associative mind.

I see what you did there. :)
