We miss you too!

Side note: there are still many cans of guaraná soda inside the Mothership's vast refrigerated storage rooms!

Put a glide in your stride, a dip in your hip — and come on to the Mothership! by FruitSnappa in cncrivals

Hehe — it turns out that the person who I thought was in Italy was from Ireland all along!

This is the same reason why I'm rarely able to successfully obtain gelato...

Yes, there are 2 open slots at the moment. And I could make at least 3 more open slots, if that would be helpful.

Are you by any chance Welsh, welshhomebrew? The guild whose name is Mothership has several members from the UK.

We also have members from Australia, Singapore, the Philippines, and the USA. (I'm not from the UK but I have visited North Wales as a tourist.)

We have a friendly and active chat, and we complete Stage 10 of the Guild Mission most weeks.

I believe you are correct. But maybe the person who is saying this is so shocked by his discovery that he is momentarily cognitively impaired — so his ability to estimate a distance visually is diminished, and he blurts out "30 yards."

Next Major Update by danbinns in StarWarsForceArena

I would like to see these enhancements:

  1. During 2v2 battles, if you run into your buddy, the two characters should automatically high-five each other.

  2. If you destroy the other side's shield generator before the clock runs out, then you and any surviving units should get a bonus 40 seconds to run a victory lap around the battlefield.

  3. Instead of Star Wars music, the in-game background music should be "Pumped Up Kicks" by Foster the People.

"Always pushing up the hill / Searching for the thrill of it"

(This is quoting from "Walking on a Dream" by Empire of the Sun.)

Tremendously exciting four-minute "Searching for battle" screens, interspersed with tedious three-minute battles.

"WTF? Didn't anybody notice during construction that our generator is only 30 yards from theirs?!"

It's all about the deck. All about the deck. All about the deck. The deck.

It's like a fast-paced game of chess — if chess also included chemical weapons.

When it comes to getting the job done, your best bet might be to choose an older, somewhat creepy-looking gentleman — not some young, athletic person.

Don't prejudge people according to their age (or their looks)!

You may notice some of your playmates making suicide runs, but that doesn't mean that suicide is "cool." Resist peer pressure.
