Hey y'all!  Anybody else coming/at BW this year?  I think Phred, Capt Wolf, and MKJ (saw your ship there today, mate - that thing is pretty big!) were planning on being there, right?  Kai and I'll be there with the Innovalug team, though unfortunately neither of us have got any BoBS stuff on display    I'm the guy running around with the coat and the gold sash (and maybe an eyepatch too, we'll see  ).  Would love to get to meet/hang out with any BoBSers who'll be there! 

I didn't know you'd be there! That's great! I'll be there a little today, most of the day Fri, some of the day Sat evening, and some of the day Sun. I'll be around the ChiLUG table, Eurobricks collab, and the GoH and BoBS collabs.

Life has gotten totally in the way for me, and I'm not going to be there this year.  I would have loved to meet/hang out!

Will we see pictures?

(Particularly of the BoBS collab) ?

I have a football stadium in the works - the World Cup just started - and wanted to ask in advance: what category would fit best? In the real world it would be 100% "commerce" for sure, but I guess "art and culture" fits best.

I'd definitely say "art & culture"

[Maxim I]

Yep, my soccerstadium was art and culture as well :)

You spelled "football" wrong.

I do hope for a continuation of the tournament though!

Oh, sorry we'll be missing you!  Hope to be able to come across each other somewhere or another one of these days (or years, maybe I should say )

Nice - great to see BoBS has got something going there!  Glad to meet you IRL and hope we can meet up again sometime tomorrow!

[dr_spock]

Aye, the BoBS Cup tournament is coming to Bastion, assuming Prio doesn't blockade Bastion in the months of August/September.  A little hard to have a tournament when the players can't get into port.  Maybe we can do a sea water football/soccer tournament as a backup plan.  

A winner's trophy has been commissioned for the tournament.  (Winner will have to provide a mailing address to receive trophy.)

[Bart]

Sweet that you are getting this going dr Spock! No worries about the Grand Dutchy I'm sure we can get a free passage for players and fans when the time is there ;) 

[Darnok]

Aye, looking great! I am now even more looking forward to the event.

[gedren_y]

Nevermind.

RULE UPDATE

Dear all,

The court has discussed class 0 boats and come to the following conclusions. Henceforth:

• Prefab boats, canoes, etc. can no longer be licensed.
• Class 0 vessels now count 0.5 towards your shiplimit. (Rounding up)

Existing class 0's will be allowed until sunk, although they will be impacted by the 0.5 shiplimit increase.

 

I will update the relevant rules.

[Darnok]

How is sistershipping being affected by this?

You will not be able to sistership a lost one, if it is a prefab moc. I suppose that is what you mean? :)

Otherwise, it isn't affected.

Aye, that was my point, thanks.

 

Another poor change to the rules sadly.

Excellent change to the rules, court.

Just be glad you got in before they changed the rules. And you still owe me a class 4.

In order to ensure that we don't overlook any vessels being detained in the MCRA, each faction should designate one person who can send me a PM with all the vessels that faction is detaining. All that I need is the name of the ship and the location it is being detained at. Please ensure that the list is sent prior to the MCRA deadline.

[Bregir]

COR detains none. For now... *dum dum DUM! * :P
