SakashiroI just realized I've been playing ED for more than a year.

Let's shut down everything and stay at home for a few weeks to flatten the curve, they said. My husband and I got bored, so we bought a few video games to pass the time. ED happened to be on sale and looked interesting. We expected to postpone our annual trip to Taiwan until autumn. We entertained ourselves while waiting for the lockdown to end. I found Inara and started writing.

One year later we're still struggling to flatten the curve. Recent developments suggest that vaccines won't stop viral transmission, and mutations have already made some of them partially ineffective. Governments seem willing to impose lockdowns forever and enforce them by increasingly authoritarian means.

I guess that's it, folks. The new normal. The end of the world as we know it.

Knightwolf 1785Just to see what people think: What is your idea for an Elite/Star Trek crossover and where would you go?

Just for the fun of it is why I'm asking. For my I'd take my Cobra MKIII along for some wild trouble making with Discovery.

Let me get this one out of the way for every engineer and science officer of star fleet: They have faster then light travel, but no gravity systems?! How can that be?

Knightwolf 1785That would be fun. What ship would you use from Elite to mess with the borg?

Clover ShawYes it's slow, but MORE DAKKA

Meowers

Clover ShawYes it's slow, but MORE DAKKA

You can always paint it red if you think it's too slow, like I did.

Synthya WylderDon't forget the coffeemaker on 1 of the E:D ships... there must be a warning label there somewhere, warning against using it if not on a station, planetary or moon body, or during certain maneuvers generating a simulated gravity effect.
