To the far rim in a Sidey

Congratulations Frawd! Epic journey! I'll follow Your story until You get back safely to the bubble, when you're finally there, I think You'll have a similar entry like when Caesar walked into Rome. o7

Probably not the best comparison to make at this time of year. [down]

I agree. Comparisons like that are bad ides.

The "Ides of sometime May-June" Just doesn't sound as ominous.

I think where Frawd is concerned, "Quod imperator est nutter" is more like it

Amazing and awe-inspiring!
Congrats commander! Hope to shake your ... erm flash my lights at BP

Thanks Cmdr...I'll do a sidey roll in return.

+1 for the Frawd skin. Making impossible possible

Or maybe they could create a "Filthy Frawd Sidey Skin" for everybody else...complete with BP dirt and grime. A must have for any sidey Cmdr

I'll be back on the 9th April. If it's working.

Hope the problem resolves itself before then...I will probably be in the festivities at BP on 2 April and 9 April so hopefully see you on the 9th.

Seems I forgot to add my written congratulations to Frawd for completing the journey to Beagle Point after my actual words on the arrival

So Frawd:

You are a complete raving loon, and should be locked up for your own good.

Thank you Cmdr...I do try

Traveller_GG said:
I took a look inside your cockpit when you were on the ground; there are ...things... *moving* in there. It's obvious to me now: the invasion will start when you return to the bubble and open the airlock door; humanity is doomed from that moment.

I think you may be right Cmdr...there are definitely things crawling around in here that weren't here when I left...or maybe they are just figments of my stir-crazy imagination...

Traveller_GG said:
Look: I was slightly aghast when I met up with you all those weeks and thousands upon thousands of light years ago; now I'm just more than a little awestruck at the actual real life effort you've put into this endeavour. Many words have been used: epic, amazing, awe-inspiring, magnificent; the list goes on.

Me? I'd like to say it was a genuinely emotional moment when we jumped into the Beagle Point system with you, and I'd like to extend my personal thanks for allowing me to be a part of it.

Hay Cmdr...I was glad to have you along. When I first set out on this journey (125 days ago) I was pretty much alone and you were one of the first Cmdrs I met and talked to along the way. Now I'm at BP and I'm surrounded by many people, all of whom I consider friends and comrades...

Traveller_GG said:
I'd like to hope that I can be there when you return and dock. I'd be honoured to form an escort to get you to your destination of choice when that time comes.

That would be cool...I think I will need an escort because I will not have a clue about bubble protocols and docking etc etc...will probably get interdicted while trying to figure out how to contact the station...and then I have to get into the slot.

Thanks Cmdr..I appreciate your analogy even if I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with that actually happening...a bit of an armed escort to ward off nasty NPC pirates would do me fine

Except it won't be April when I get back...unless it is April 3303...

There are just two screenshots you need on the ED box - this is one of them. The stuff of legends told to wide-eyed spacer kids!

That'll do me. That's me directly behind in the Anaconda [hotas]

Wow... gratz Frawd! Awesome job.

Cmdr Frawd Digger · Mar 30, 2016

And now for my walk of shame...

As previously mentioned, I screwed up the final jump into BP! Here it is in Hi Def...

[video]http://plays.tv/video/56fb8f296190780d5b/jump-beagle-point-cmdrs-frawd-digger-cula-ta-traveller-gg-eisen-iron-orchid-petracleus?from=user[/video]

Hay, but I still made it...not like I died on the jump or anything.

Brother Sabathius · Mar 30, 2016

Many congratulations Frawd, it's an epic achievement, and I feel very lucky to have been in that formation jump-in to Beagle

Thanks also to the Rock Rats, without whom, this would not have been possible.

It was a pleasure having you with us Cmdr...

Actually as per the video above you guys jumped in before me...it was all planned you realise. I wanted to have a welcome party when I arrived

And as for your Rock Rat comment...agree 100%.

Ack, don't remind me. I'm putting off those thoughts for a couple of weeks...

Thanks Cmdr
