  1. Dundun, I never "farmed" rep. I just was a fun guy and I got some. It's not your LIFE... If the forums get hacked again, we might have more issues with rep. Until then, don't rep farm, just... Be you.
  2. Awww I missed it by 2 hours. @Dundun65C
  3. Fourty SEVEN notifications today. GEEZ guys, I was gone for TWO DAYS.

      My highest was 17, and it was because someone went through and liked 13 chapters of a mission report... I've been gone for a week and gotten a normal amount.

      :o I forget what my highest is. Probably like twenty something, and most are usually @NSEP's status updates :D

      Well, among others

      I usually don't get more then 10 notifications, because i, myself, am the notifier.

  4. ha ha okay. I need to block out my real name first though Never noticed you had over 10k rep. Congratulations!!! *AIRHORNS*
  5. Aw for Pete's sake. You know i was a newbie once too. Making challenges FOR noobs is not really a big deal in my opinion. Rep doesn't make me a pro you know. It just means I've posted here more. Did you know I've never been past Jool, and have never rendezvoused or docked without autopilot? Just sayin...
  6. Kerbal States Military-Mission File 10046 OPERATION RED DAWN TOP SECRET, GS-13 CLEARANCE ONLY! Your mission is to launch a military probe into the orbit of Duna which we will use to scope out possible landing sites and mining bases for future expeditions. The best company to launch this mission will be rewarded with a badge and the United Kerbal States Military's respect. MISSION REQUIREMENTS: Probe must have the telescope recently released Must be able to generate power through Solar Panels. (NO RTGS) Launch vehicle should be launched at night and MUST BE UNTRACEABLE (Eg. Put fuel reserves in one the boosters to deorbit them.) Probe must be able to relay information back to Kerbin without any relay satellites. Probe must be placed in a stable orbit around Duna. Dismissed! I know the telescope can't be used outside of solar orbit. It's for fun.
  7. @SiriusRocketry your signature is so large is blocks the page picker. Please remedy this. I just have this one problem in writing where I will start a story and just... Leave it, and then start ANOTHER story and leave THAT one, and the process continues until I have like 150 docs on my computer. I have issues. HOWEVER: I actually am trying to get a novel published! It's a short story about a pigeon from WWI, written from the pigeon's perspective, but the reader doesn't know it's a pigeon until chapter II. It's really well written in my opinion, and I've gotten lots of people to review/read it. My Mom has a degree in art, so she'll be my illustrator. She's already illustrated a few books already. @SiriusRocketry For writing longer stories: If you want to make long chapters, (something I struggled with for a long time) try to describe things in more detail without overdoing it. For instance, let's say I wanted to talk about a man walking down a cobblestone path in England on a rainy night. I would describe it like this: The stout man was strolling down a pathway which shone like a lake from the hard rain that was falling down in thick sheets. Nearby, residents of the small town ran with umbrellas, splashing water onto the young gentleman's shoes. Shaking off the thick mud, he continued his brisk walk, the raindrops falling off his wide-brimmed top hat. Carriages lumbered by him, the steady 'clop clop' creating a rhythm on the stone. If you still have a gap, use dialogue to fix it. Many people fear character dialogue, but honestly it's really easy. Talk to yourself while writing the words and see how you would talk normally. If you have a character from a place with a strong accent, include the accent in the writing.
  8. I did nothing today. Just played Cities Skylines. (In 2 days of owning the game, I've racked up 26 hours. I have issues)
  9. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! WHY? WHY ME? WHY ME KRAKEN? RRRRRGGHHHH!!!! why is this thread still alive??
  10. We need kerbal emergency vehicles! WHOA. Just of curiosity, does the booster texture change after reentering or do you need to configure it in the VAB?
  11. I saw the planet Jupiter last night! Amazing to think that space is the definition of nothing, yet... You can actually see something. It's mind-blowing. 

    I managed to get a picture with my iPhone.

    Apparently Saturn and Pluto were to my left. Not visible, but they were low on the horizon according to my star/planet chart, with Saturn a little up and to the left, with Pluto beneath it.

     

    Now my head is spinning. Help.

  12. Welcome to the forums! As @Geonovast said, it seems like you're mastered KSP. I have 1000h in the game and I still don't know how to rendezvous. If you have any questions about KSP or the forums don't hesitate to ask. Enjoy your time here!
  13. 2013: Play KSP now so you can get the free DLC! Grrrr...
  14. I'm bored and want input on this. I might start a thread devoted to near-future military combat aircraft. F-20 "Serpent" Joint Strike Fighter This aircraft was first made to be a bomber, but soon pilots found that it performed well in hard turns and high-G maneuvers, therefore classifying it as a JSF (Joint Strike Fighter) The aircraft has a slightly peculiar design to it's predecessors, with winglets to reduce drag, and a closed tail with airbrakes that pilots refer to as the "spoiler." Besides that, the slightly drooped nose increases view for bombing runs and landings. It is powered by 2 Pratt and Kritney turbofan afterburners, which helps it achieve mach 2. It can carry one drop tank, as well last numerous weapons on the wings. A specified bomber will be made soon.
  15. Hey guys. Just learned that some close friends had their house burn to the ground. I'm probably not going to be on much for the next few weeks. Keep them in your thoughts. No one was hurt.

      Glad you are taking a break to help man.

      Good luck to your friend, you, and whoever is helping your friend and his family restore their life again.

      Phew, so happy to hear no one was hurt. I hate fire. Of course, I'm just a kid, so what can I say? Raising money is probably the best way to go.

  16. Reminds me of my stupid oil derrick and space telescope fear that I had when I was younger.
  17. Oh, for fu...

      I hate the fact that i can't always show appreciation.

  18. Wait, I thought this thread was locked...
  19. My thought is: Why am I not having enough thoughts?
  20. Maybe it doesn't affect the sounds. I guess I always just noticed the plumes. Other than that, I don't think I can help you. Sorry. UNLEEEES, you and I agree to Mae a sound mod using real engine sounds based on the size. I think it wouldn't be too hard.
