Ok, now down to the big stuff. Some of you may not like this one, but I nearly fell out of my seat laughing over this guy.

Oh lord, I remember him. I was the one who said "Pass.."

Bloody almonds. I'll poast a few later that I have.

Just go play the game and have fun dammit.

all in all the conclusion is that disco doesn't need antagonist factions, it doesn't need phantoms, it doesn't need nomads, it doesn't need coalition and it doesn't need many other things, no AIs, the game is hijacked by morons to confuse the game with their dickwaving generic competition games mixed up with troll-of-the-day.

Had a laugh when this happened, wasnt on Disco server though, but still xF



Just for the record, Roflcopter = Exile... he and Eppy were testing, cheating, playing and spending all the money the could give themselfs (.setcast works perfectly apparantly xD) More like a time-spender given todays problems:)

OK, I didn't get any screenshots, but this is so great, I just have to type it out from memory...

OK, so first off, the setting. I'm in New York on a level 21 (or so) Mule, who is looting and pirating. My name is Jes.Rogers. What happens is Synth.Foods.Convoy|007 says he's leaving Manhattan. So, here's what happens...

Me: Synth Convoy 007, this is Manhattan Customs, we require all outbound transports to log their destinations, and you've failed to do so.

Him: Check your database, I have logged it.

Me: There must be some error, please log it again and I'll put it in.

Him: OK, OK. *uploading destination info: New Tokyo*

So, I follow him to Colorado, where I have to think fast to get him where I want him, because I'm behind him. So...

Me: Synth Convoy 007, we've gotten an anonymous tip that you're carrying contraband! Report to Denver for inspection!

Him: Customs already cleared me on Manhattan!

Me: We have reason to believe that you took it up after you launched.

Him: OK, we're holding over the Rio Grande, you come to me.

Me: Umm... that's impossible, our only ship is out inspecting some one else, please come to Denver. (right now, I'm sitting at the TL between Denver and the Rio Grande)

Him: Hold on, I'm checking your credentials... there doesn't seem to be anyone by the name of "Jes Rogers" in the Customs databanks!

Me: Umm... you'll notice that if you look me up you get a file so restricted that it doesn't even exist. Do the letters "LSF" mean anything to you?

Him: Hold on, verifying with the Rio Grande Commander...

*few seconds pause*

Him: He informs me that you're not on any files, but also tells me he doesn't have files for the LSF. OK, after consulting with my XO, I'm coming.

He flies through and falls into the trap!

Me: Yahar! Ye fell fer it, ya space dog! Now fill ma hold with yer Luxury Goods, or I blow ya up!

Him: One moment... *comms mute* ... no choice! ... *comms unmute* OK, we'll hand over the goods.



For verification, ask Kuraine, it was his transport. Afterwards, he confided that it was the first time he had been pirated, and it was the funnest time pirating I've ever had! Can't wait to pull it in a Werewolf!

Here is a verification of the transcript between myself and Jes. Rogers (aka Zapp). I was impressed and thoroughly enjoyed getting pirated (obviously i was aware it was a set-up from the start). Unfortunately I have no screenshots either, as my computer tends to crash if i hit print screen within the game most of the time (no idea why). Either way, here is the log:

Me: "This is Synth-Convoy|007 leaving Manhattan airspace"

Jes.Rogers.: "Synth Convoy 007, this is Manhattan Customs, we require all outbound transports to log their destinations, and you've failed to do so."

Me: "This is Synth Convoy 007, check your database, we already logged it with the authorities groundside."

Jes.Rogers.: "There appears to be some error with our databanks, please re-submit your manifest for verification"

Me: "Very well, uploading to your databanks now *processing*...Destination: New Tokyo"

I then jumped to Colorado, where he followed, and shortly after I left Pueblo station I receive further hails.

Jes.Rogers.: "Synth Convoy 007, we've gotten an anonymous tip that you're carrying contraband! Report to Denver for inspection!"

Me: "What? I have already been inspected by customs before launching from Manhattan. I'm sure you are quite mistaken."

Jes.Rogers.: "We have reason to believe that you acquired it after you launched."

Me: "Very well, our vessel is holding position at the battleship Rio Grande, we will await your inspection teams here."

Jes.Rogers.: "Umm... that's impossible, our only ship is out inspecting another vessel, please come to Planet Denver." (right then, unknown to me, he was sitting at the TL between Denver and the Rio Grande)

Me: "Pilot Jes.Rogers, my XO insists that I verify your identification, as there doesn't appear to be anyone by the name of "Jes Rogers" in the Customs databanks"

Jes.Rogers.: "Umm...I work for the LSF"

Me: "One moment, I am conversing with the commander of the Rio Grande for verification..."

*few seconds pause*

Me: "He has informed me that they do not have any data regarding a pilot with your name, but also tells me he doesn't have files for the LSF"

Jes.Rogers.: "You don't want to be in trouble with the LSF, do you?"

Me: "...Umm, we don't want any trouble with the LSF. Very well, my XO is insisting we make haste to Denver. Enroute now"

I get dropped out of the trade lane halfway to Denver, to find Jes and another waiting for me.

Jes.Rogers.: "Yahar! Ye fell fer it, ya space dog!"

Me: "...I am going to have a serious chat with my XO and the commander of the Rio Grande after this"

Jes.Rogers.: "Now fill ma hold with yer Luxury Goods, or I blow ya up!"

Me: "One moment...*comms mute* ...we're going to...listen!...no choice! ... *comms unmute* very well pirate, we accede to your request."

I hand over the luxury goods and we part ways. I continued on to New Tokyo, but I was impressed and it was thoroughly enjoyable. This is the sort of thing I enjoy about disco roleplaying, and it is what makes it all totally worth it. A highly enjoyable experience all round.
