MS Update Around the Boards - May 14, 2008 (5.16.08 addition)

The Completely Liability-Free ATB for 5.14.08


EUC

The 12th Starfighter Draft has hit the playoffs. Come on by to see some hotshot pilots! Judging is based on a "reasonable person in the position of a pilot" standard.

The Knight Tournament in full swing so stop on by if you want to see some force duel action. EUC mods assume no responsibility for any injuries sustained by the participants.

RPF

In administrative news, our newly designed, user friendly Guide to Star Wars Roleplaying piece is up. If you've wanted to get into Roleplaying but don't know where to start, this is the place for you! Subject to terms and conditions set forth heretofore in Paragraph 3, Subsection A, Line 26. RPF mods do not guarantee that you will kick ass at roleplaying if you read the Guide. User assumes all risks.

As for fun and games: Star Wars: Episode VI - As Father and Son is an RP making use of a classic premise: what would the last installment of the saga be like if Luke joined his father on Bespin? Play as your favorite canon movie character, a canon EU character, or use your own OC. Join us. It is your destiny. Arguably, it is also an unenforceable contract, given the unequal bargaining powers between the all-mighty mods compelling the users to participate, and the helpless users who fear they have no other choice but to comply with the "request." Or I have no idea what I'm talking about. That's entirely possible as well.

SW TV

The CW trailer and poster is out on starwars.com - and in hi-def, no less! If you're a nerd (and you know you are), celebrate the awesomeness here.

Have you hugged your software license agreement today? When you do, don't be stingy with your affections - choice of law provisions need extra love.

 

Very short, but awesome update. I am glad to see that those activities are getting mentioned.

I can personally vouch for the Star Wars: Episode VI - As Father and Son RPG...very interesting.

 

Thanks for the update!

 

QFT.

Yes, short, sweet, and to the point. Very nice.

 

If I want to submit something for the next ATB post, to whom do I send the PM?

 

I think you can send it to pretty much any staff member and they'll give it to whoever is putting together the Around the Boards for that week.

 

I'd say preferably, send it to a mod in the forum that it pertains to.

 

This thread typically lists who's doing which ATB, but I'd go with Inty's suggestion most of the time.

 

Thanks.
