Alpha 360

Another (z)kombie attack! It seems to be a fad with the fan works section right now. Still, I do like your writing style and am intrigued. I'll be watching this closely.....

Come on Heywood! Show those zombies the old one-two! With gloves on of course.

I'm ready. Had past experiences with writing. Wrote Advancing Through Hardships early this summer. Only major story that caught on though. Willing to have a second try at fame. It was a 1,000 views story which gained the attention of Just Jim. I can be a sucker for romance, crazy plot twists, and spaceflight.

Looking forward to this series, looks really interesting. Just so you know though - all that text can be very disconcerting. I would suggest smaller chapters. Since you are using Google Docs one as to scroll down alot and that is the most overwhelming part. This just refers to format, not the story.

Still, pretty funny

This must have been a lot of work. Please continue the Cheapskate Chronicles, can't wait for the next installment

Great Quote by Val. Didn't know that Val watched Frozen.......Or the Kerblish equivalent.

Coming again soon. THIS TIME, I will succeed, I swear...........

I'm back and ready to complete some more challenges Cut and pasted my entry into here below STS-3b Returned to KSP Sorry for the ages long delay. Computer was dying on me, so I had to let it rest. Now ready to return to work. (By the way, will submit for third mission silver stars(gold leaves since this isn't modded). The Extravehicular Mobility suit was just too hard to make. WAY too hard.) Finally, after all the burnt down information store-houses, we finally are going to keep this up. The computer building WILL NOT burn on us again, I sincerely hope. Now, the Marsupial Mk4 is going to launch out into Infinity and Beyond. Well, hopefully not explosively. I noticed that the recent designs need alot of hope to get them working. Also lets not assume that hope is the same as faith, because if we actually had FAITH in these rockets, we would be plunged into depression. Forever. On to less depressing matters. Here is the shuttle on the launch pad. It only took four designs and thousands of kerbal engineers months to finally reach this design. Isn't it a beauty. The Mun in a very scenic position, one would think that such a picture could be photo shopped. But nooo, we totally waited until the correct moment to launch in order to capture these shots. Oh, everybody, don't notice that the tails are on backwards. That is a visual bug, it will be fixed in the next few minutes. Nothing to be alarmed about..... The tank decoupling nicely. (deleted picture) The NewStart was NOT be damaged when the booster collided with it. The picture above might contain numerous explosions but NOTHING is NOT going to plan. Oh, wait, we have deleted that picture already. Shoot. Anyway, here is the NewStart looking beautiful against the islands off the coast of KSC. Now we are in orbit. We skipped ahead because SOME people forgot to take photos, so we'll say that we wouldn't want to bore the people watching this to death going into orbit again and again. Wait, did I make references to many failed attempts? No, there were no failed attempts(-that will be publicized, because what doesn't happen on the news never happens at all). After an insertion burn, this is our orbit. We wanted a full view of the sky, so we put it into this insanely inclined orbit. We also wanted to prove that we had fuel to spare. Here is a EM suit, or platform. As you see, we need some more work for EM suits. Now, Bill has left the platform. Look at that beautiful sunrise. Also, Valentina left the platform and returned to the ship, leaving the platform drifting into darkness. Yes, it was that unwieldy. Here was some of the assembly of the satellite. Bill returns to the shuttle, having completed his duty. Now with the solar panels extended, its time to leave! Here we are changing the inclination of the shuttle. Skip forward a few minutes and we are in a 6 degree orbit. Why six degree? Wellll, I hadn't done the best job with the maneuver node placement. This is the reentry burn. Bill and Valentina are ready and waiting. Burning through the atmosphere. Since we are on the wrong inclination, we will not be landing at the KSC. (I'm a little out of practice) After touching down on the water, We timewarped waited until daytime to catch this spectacular pic. Will this classify for a 3 silver star?

STS-3b Returned to KSP Sorry for the ages long delay. Computer was dying on me, so I had to let it rest. Now ready to return to work. (By the way, will submit for third mission silver stars. The Extravehicular Mobility suit was just too hard to make. WAY too hard.)

sure. but don't let me sway you in any direction. But you knew to work on something more, what that is I leave to you.

I like where you are going, but right now, most people are just going to pass this for lack of content. Content is what must be provided in quantity. Here's some likes to show my favor for this initiative.

do you mind expanding your classifications? Otherwise, impress us.

Ready for the most creepy chapter in the series (obviously since it is Halloween). I'm willing to bet that this chapter will be the stuff the worst nightmares are made of. I know you won't disappoint us, you are too good a writer.

I have completed the third challenge, aiming for a commander badge for once. Here is the thread with the report of STS-3

STS-3a Aiming for gold stars

Not to sound impatient or anything, but when do I receive my badge? Do I have to complete all the sub-challenges then I get my badge or do you have a badge for each sub-challenge?

EFT-1 This is the Doing It Orion Style challenge part 1

EFT-1 By the way, I will continue this progression in my mission report, Genesis Inc.

Is it okay if I post my submissions in my mission reports post called Genesis Inc? They will be just a detailed as these are and I would like to post my progression through these challenges as well.

I am moving posts from the Shuttle Challenge thread to here where I will continue them. This was my first post which got me the silver STS-a badge. These are the missions I have don't so far. The Marsupial Shuttle Program And this is the second mission which hasn't been graded yet.

Greetings Gentlekerbs, I am Mr. Kerman, the CEO of the recently created Genesis Incorporated. It is 2037, not the early 2000s, so everything we do will be over the top and crazy, if our computers can compute it. I will require the assistance of every nation and people group to help construct our future in space. But of course, we will need to explore our solar system from end to end. We will need shuttles, colonies, interplanetary ships, SSTOs and everything in-between. Luckily the predecessors of Genesis Inc. has been working on these problems. Now we need a plan of attack. We have already have been working on a shuttle program, the Marsupial Shuttle Initiative. But we are undecided on other objectives, we need to decide now. I leave this to you, leaders of the reformed nations of Kerbin. Message ended. Now dear reader, put yourself into the shoes of a leader of a reformed nation after the nuclear disaster of 2035. What would you prioritize? Post your answers down below and lets see where this will go! Here are the present challenges which I have accepted Here are the mods for this sandbox play through

Thank you for that tip. But I have sadly adapted the habit of coming in hard from 100 kilometer+ but I am getting closer to the KSC every time I do it! Next mission, I'm aiming for gold leaves.

Genesis Inc. has accepted a contract to put three satellites in Geostationary orbit. We have adapted the Opossum model with several extra Mk2 cargo bays. Here is the Koala Bear sitting on the launch pad. The launch profile consisted of a high-speed suborbital trajectory that drained the outer tanks which were detached, then enter orbit at 1,000 kilometers above Kerbin. Then after releasing a test satellite and another satellite accidentally, the Koala Bear used the Rhino main engine to raise the orbit to roughly 2,800 kilometers. I then released another satellite in that orbit and time-warped to the highest point of the orbit. I circularized the orbit and released another satellite. I repeated the process and ended up with three satellites in Geostationary orbit, two in circular orbit at 1,000 kilometers, and one in elliptical orbit. I de-orbited later and landed without anything exploding except only one tail fin.

Bummer . Luckily I am determined to get this badge or I would have quit long ago. Sorry for not double checking whether or not I'm actually succeeding.
