    New Sith Order/Galatic Defenders War Update(I was ask to do this 4 months ago. :p )

    General Darth Oochy launched an attack against Dantooine with a S-SSD and destoryed the planet, killing nearly 1.8 billion. The brave attack by the captian of a Ryson Defense Fleet ship destoryed the massive SSD by ramming it at lightspeed. General Oochy's force pulled out, leaving two Jedi injured after the space battle.

    In other news the Jedi have made a deal with the Dark Lord Dispicable, to exchange Jodack Palpaitine for the plans for the Eclipse-class SSD. The meeting is taking place at an undisclosed location.

    Jedi Master Booster reports that his brother may have joined the Sith and plans revenge for his sisters death. More on this later...

    Valyn's Hanger Update


    EUCNN, When news breaks, we fix it!

    In other news today, british born man bets life savings and his clothing on a single number on a roulette wheel in vegas, he won. Inthread, we have a lovely topical selection happening based apon what body parts people represent of Valyn's human figure. So far, his hands have still not been taken. Last week, on a split second decision, the Hanger recieved a new Senator, Thok. He promised to not interfere with anything, and allow the crazyness to continue. More news to come, this is Ran Daver, signing off.

    As a Media Studies major, I demand to see your source for such an falsify remark. [face_plain]

    Also, if I don't see a retraction for this, the FADA Minister for Insanity, Lunacy and Fanaticism will not be happy. [face_plain]

    Wow...I knew there was a reason I liked elevators! How about escalators? :D

    [face_laugh] Good stuff.

    Hopefully, we can get Fist some more help with thread reps posting periodic updates here like Thok and Oochy's excellent examples above.

    A good mix of comedy and real forum news - exactly what the thread's all about.

    NJO Fan Club Update - Breaking news


    Adalia-Durron and Jedi_Satimber were both admitted into intensive care earlier this week after several attempts to keep the NJOFC home thread moving along. The pair, both noted inhabitants of the Geriatric Ward, apparently exhausted themselves trying to jolly the thread along, which has coasted towards stagnation recently. Doctors reported that the two are in a "stable" condition, but warned that neither would be allowed out of their beds for some time, to avoid the risk of further occurrences. They also hinted at possible restrictions on the pair's future actions to "ensure that this never occurs again". Whether this will be a detriment to the pair remains to be seen.

    Reports have come out that desertion from some of the lower ranks as well as some prominent Commanders has caused the current situation of the club ("close to dead"), but Grand Admiral and club founder Lord_RJ insists that the "club is going fine, we're active at our social boards, and everything is good. We've had a steady intake of new members in the recent past, although plenty of spots are still available - just speak to our club's Admiral, Iron_Fist". He declined to comment on the condition of Durron and Satimber, although he did mention that "It's never a good day when two such prominent members of the club are both out of action". Iron_Fist was unavailable for comment.

    ;)
