Calm down everyone, we don't have to pick up the names right this second. I do appreciate the gestures of course. Once it gets to around that time I'll bring up the subject again. Thanks for being so supportive everyone!

here is an idea for you. Have all those interested in donating put in bids over a couple days, maybe a week. and whoever wins names the Ship? not sure how best to put it together but id hate to have someone paying into a ship name they dispise lol

Well, sorry but I am a poor working stiff.....I would be a good soldier in that case, and play whatever ship is offered.

But lobbying is free.....doesn't Guardian just sing....LOL Razz

I will give everyone my word on this: We will not have a name that is despised. I will make sure that everyone involved at least can tolerate the name. I would rather settle on something that is "meh" for everyone rather than a name that is "FRIGGIN-A!" to most and "CRAPTASTIC" to a few.

I propose that we name the ship either "USS FRIGGIN-A!" or "USS CRAPTASTIC".

The Uss Friggincrap the first and last Oberon class Transwarp test bed. She came out of a transwarp bubble right in the middle of an asteroid rich in dilithium.

Which caused the captain to scream 'HOLY FRIGGIN CRAP!" Just before the ship exploded!

I sent out a PayPal request to those crewmen who've decided to pitch in on the donations front. Anyone else who wants to contribute, just let us know here.

NOTE: If someone gets some sort of "reminder" to pay their paypal donation request, please don't be upset... I sometimes like to push buttons... oops.

In all seriousness I think I hit a reminder button even though it looked like a drop down menu. I shouldn't be allowed to touch things.

Embarassed

I'll donate, I've been wanting to do something like this for a long time. My paypal email is different tho so the link on the website works? Or just pm me and I'll give you the email.

Ok then, I believe that brings the current total up to 5:

Captain Brennon
Lieutenant Calodan
Lieutenant Uvek
Lieutenant Croft
Ensign McTavish

That brings the price burden to $8.80. I think that is a manageable price. I'm canceling the old requests and resending them with the adjusted price. Thank you guys, you're all doing a great job and helping to make this an amazing game.

That was painless, I thought I would send a nice round ten bucks but the amount was already in there! Anyway I paid my gold press latinum, when do I get the Colodan bobble head doll?

Hehehe

*bobbles*

While I can't provide an authenticated Calodan Bobble-head (TM) to everyone who donates, maybe the XO can design an award based on the concept.
