Also wanted to say thank you to the Frontier Comteam (Arthur is even more sexy in person than on the streams!) for getting involved and all the amazing Artists and content creators who attended.

Bet that would lead to an awesome IRL chat![]()

They can't salute because they are too busy trying to interdict you.I have an Elite sticker on the back of my car and I always hope that some random Commander will salute me when passing on the road
Didn't happen so far... I remember a post from one of the FB groups, where someone went to a dentist for some treatment and it turned out they played Elite too![]()
I thought it was just tailgating. Didn't see any escape vector projections, the HUD in my Clio must be bugged.They can't salute because they are too busy trying to interdict you.![]()

Yea, I miss that SoTG too on ED Forums - don't use Discord as it is just yet another social media .You guys made a discord channel?
I would occasionally read that thread and laugh and wonder why it all went away. I guess I understand now.
Over the course of the last 7(?) years I've frequently commuted in and out of London displaying clearly visible Elite T-shirts, sweatshirts, badges, and stickers - always in the vague hope that some fellow traveller will point and give me an o7 or stop to say hi to a fellow commander.I have an Elite sticker on the back of my car and I always hope that some random Commander will salute me when passing on the road![]()
I live in Nottingham , and have seen 1 chap in the Founders edition (LEPer) sweatshirt. We do exist, just a lot of us aren't allowed out by our Mums (me excluded, too old for that)Over the course of the last 7(?) years I've frequently commuted in and out of London displaying clearly visible Elite T-shirts, sweatshirts, badges, and stickers - always in the vague hope that some fellow traveller will point and give me an o7 or stop to say hi to a fellow commander.
Still waiting!
Either Elite commanders are much rarer than we imagine, or far more shy ... or perhaps both.
And while I'm here ... thanks Frontier team, loved the Frameshift Lave livestream! It really was a bit warm in that room towards the end so I'm glad it didn't go on any longer, but I enjoyed every minute of it. And just a general thanks too for being so accessible throughout the 'con, and so friendly, and so willing to just throw yourselves into everything that was happening (from panels to playing chess to painting models to coming over to chat with us until the VERY early hours of the morning).

Greetings Commanders!
Just a heads up regarding Community activity this weekend.
As you know, Lavecon is back (thank goodness!) and we're going to be hosting a fun instalment of our own as part of the event's general scheduled, streamed activities.
We'll be hosting Frameshift Live #12 at around 14:30 BST on Saturday the 16th of July, over on the official Elite Dangerous Twitch Channel.
Unfortunately, due to the nature of having a more limited set up in terms of tech from our side, with travelling as part of the trip, the show will not be streamed live to our YouTube Channel.
We can however look to upload the VOD when we can.
The show will be hosted by Arthur, Bruce, Zac and myself, featuring our wonderful devs, Dav, Tom, Derin, Dom and Peteris.
This show is focused on:
- Fun, nostalgia trips and lightheartedness, with some Dev vs Commanders Pictionary thrown in for good measure.
- It's a place to chat in the literal company of our Lavecon Commanders and you, the viewers at home, to bring you into the room with us.
- There will be no special, unannounced, new content or development news related to Elite Dangerous: Horizons or Odyssey shared as part of this show.
- This is strictly a fun focused show as oppose to being dressed in our business clothes.
A few little grace notes:
- We're aiming as ever to share a top quality show for you all, however as mentioned we are 'on the road', so this will have a more "televised feel" as oppose to full bells and whistles we would be able to control with our usual production team in studio.
- We will be monitoring the chat as best we can so we can involve those of you viewing from home.
- Again, due to the nature of limitations on the trip, there will be no Twitch Drops as part of this show.
To those of you heading to Lavecon, we're excited to see you there!
To those who will join us for our 14:30 BST slot tomorrow from the comfort of your home...also see you there o7
Have a wonderful weekend ahead, Commanders.
