Elite Dangerous Community Schedule W/C 11 October 2021

[Zac Cocken]

Greetings Commanders!

All hands are on deck here at Frontier as we work towards Update 8 (currently due next week). Whilst we work on the next big update to Odyssey, let's see what's in store in this week's schedule:

Tuesday
Colonia Bridge Stream: Arthur & Sally will be sharing all the highlights from the community before helping to finish off the current Community Goal on tomorrow's stream!

Wednesday
Stellar Screenshots: Our weekly photography competition returns to its usual Wednesday slot this week, so make sure to get your entries in within the next two days!

Thursday
Horizons CQC Night: Join Bruce & Zac for another round of CQC! Will they take back their crown? Tune in to find out, or play along in Horizons to stop them!

Friday
Commander Creations: Your creativity knows no bounds, Commanders! Our weekly spectacle continues on Friday, when we'll be showing off more of your amazing creations.

---

We'll also be sharing a post on the forums this week from our wonderful UI team who have spared some more time to answer your questions from the UI Developer Stream a few weeks ago. Keep your eyes in the News & Bulletins section for that post in the coming days!

See you in the black Commanders,

Calm down Cicero we're talking about a games community schedule not the rights of men.

No - Monday's remain as is for now. I'm disappointed in the lack of memes at this point, however.

I'll take that no and promise not to badger you or other CM's about it for the next five months.

Monday says....

Oh sorry you said meme....

 

[DrinkyBird]

Is Monday even real at this point?

Will they take back their crown?

NOT IF I HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY ABOUT IT

Cool! Looking forward to update 8!

Unrelated tangent: wonder if there's some way to "queue up" forum posts (s.t. they are scheduled to go at certain times) so you don't need to post them manually. Might require some dev work, but might make life easier.

In case this question wasn't asked, does the UI team have any intentions to fix the mess that hundreds of fleet carriers make of the system map where FCs like to gather (CGs, mining hotspots, etc)?
