The Moderation Nation Space Program

Hehehe, that's the way, @Ten Key, we don't pay our workers to faff around taking breaks, we don't pay them at all! 

Treat your staff like we treat our moderators [gets whip out]. 

[Geschosskopf]

Nice way to make something entertaining out of the KSC science rover run

Totally not ripping off @Kuzzter and @Parkaboy

Not bad! Certainly you're a better graphic novelist than I'd be as a moderator! I appreciate the attention to detail in copying paying homage to my stuff,  you even got the VERY rarely-seen passenger word balloon color correct. Add in a few Airplane references and an evil-looking beard or two, and kerbs might not be able to tell us apart!

Well, regardless of that, that's quite a ship!  Even with the reported problems.  I'm impressed, anyway

Thanks for the appraisal! But does that mean that moderating hampers artistic expression?

Well, I hadn't meant it that way...but yes, I think it would. Not in terms of talent but in choice: a moderator must always be equitable, and an artist's job is often not to be. I can think of a few artistic choices I've made in my writing that I might not have made if I'd felt obligated to maintaining that equity.

I took a turn on the save, and, being the noobest of the mods, went for an easy mission to get some credits

[Vanamonde]

Yay! Progress!

Is this still a thing?

[Vanamonde]

Maybe. 

Real life stuff gets in the way. Sick family members, job changes, new babies, etc. 

Thanks for expressing interest, though.

[Pretorian28715]

Comment for following.

And this is interesting, seeing the different styles.

[Kerbinchaser]

Aww man I wanna be a mod just to do this.

Still a few more years til I'm legally allowed to be one. KEEP THIS THREAD OPEN FOR MEEEE......

Something a little epic

 

Darnit, I spelled @Fluburtur's name wrong

Also, spending all those hard-earned science points on the top-tier probe core was totally worth it, and I'm sure my fellow moderators will agree.

[Vanamonde]

But... where's the submarine? There's an airplane on a boat, but no submarine. 

If there is a submarine at some point, you should name it the SubBeagle. 

[Deddly]

[Vanamonde]

There is still a disconcerting scarcity of submarines in this submarine mission.

Hmm? Sorry for the delay in new episodes of the epic mission. I'm busy watching 2001:Space Odyssey, so I should be able to get back to this within a decade or two.

I drove a 2001 Space Odyssey once. It was fun to drive, but whenever I tried to open the window a warning light would pop up on the dash. Something about not being able to do that, Dman979.

Did you then pull on to the freeway and say, "Oh my God, it's full of cars!"

[Random Spaceship]

There are some very interesting - and cool - missions in this thread. Anyway, THE CHALLENGE: Send Val to Vall in a single stage to Vall spaceplane. Feel free to stop by Laythe (please do), use gravity assists, go crazy. ISRU's are allowed, but it must be a single launch - no refueling from the Capricorn, @Snark. It can be multiple parts, and can be assembled in orbit. It would be nice if it can return on a single stage, too. However, it doesn't have to be single stage from the Joolian system, just to it.

Deddly's not finished with his turn yet. 

(Though he's taking his sweet time about it. >:( )
