I've had it happen twice for me, once after Retraining my captain, the other time just now where I don't know what happened. Both times, my personal ground and space traits and starship traits were annihilated from the active tray and all the loadouts I have on my twenty or so ships. Saving the traits to a loadout doesn't…
Literary Challenge #10: Replicator Rations LC10: Stopped Cold === Vice Admiral Remus Lee's thoughts turned to the Kobayashi Maru scenario as he surveyed what remained of his bridge. Much like the infamous test, the day's events started with a distress call from the Deferi freighter Fegtau. When the English arrived at the…
Literary Challenge #9: Shore Leave LC09: Super Cruise Ship Level Detective === Commander Drevis Indoril Nethri's vacation started off poorly. His baggage with his vacation clothes went missing between the Lord English and the Zibalian pleasure ship Queen Tomobiki, leaving him only with his Starfleet officer's uniform. This…
If you search on the forums, there might still be some files related to a custom signature maker, but that was when the forums were still STO forums, so all the links to it might be dead. I don't remember the name of the thread itself. Does that mean we won't be able to write stories on the forum without having new readers…
Literary Challenge #8: Unknown Anomalies LC08: A Prize in Deep Space === "The new government has censored the old name of the species as being a construct of the old Patriarchy. They now insist that we call them 'Ferasans'." Vice Admiral Remus Lee sat at his ready room desk talking about the current Ferasan situation with…
Literary Challenge #6: Not THAT guy... LC06: The Sound of Cats === "'cause suicide is painless, it brings on many changes, and I can take or leave it if I please~" Vice Admiral Remus Lee, having absolutely nothing productive to do with his time, sang alone in his quarters into a small figurine of Fullmetal Alchemist…
Literary Challenge #4: Passing Grades LC04: Testing Positive === From their table at K-7, Vice Admiral Lee and Commander Taylor watched the flow of academy graduates as they scurried to their next assignment. Though some of the newly minted ensigns were fearful about being sent to the Klingon Front, most of them exuded a…
Literary Challenge #3: My Haven LC03: Natural 20 === As the caravan approached the arrow-riddled bodies of the scouts' two horses, four goblins appeared from the brush and attacked. "Battle stations!" the caravan's leader cried as he readied his greataxe. His three companions joined the fight, and soon three goblins were…
Literary Challenge #2: Taking Command LC02: Department Head-aches === From the outside, the USS Lord English cut an imposing figure against the backdrop of the planet Earth. One thousand meters of Federation valor and technological progress, the Odyssey-class star cruiser inspired awe and admiration among the dock workers…

There's also the problem that all the posts after the initial posts are now called 'comments' and so any links that are supposed to direct to a specific post now just go to the beginning of the comments section.
Well, I can find my things well enough, but it's the old BranFlakes and Smirk posts that are no longer linked to our LCs. I'm manually relinking my LCs, but I don't think anyone has the authority to change the links in the index, unless something changes in the forum updates.
I trained all my BOffs in all their respective Career skills so I could plug and play on the go, but the away team skills keep switching back to a set pattern Tactical officers revert to Draw Fire I, II, III, and Ambush I, Science Officers revert to Dylovine I, II, III and Anesthizine Gas I, and Engineers revert to…
All my officers defaulted to the same set of skills; my tactical BOffs have three Levels of Draw Fire and Ambush I, my Scis have three Hypospray Dylovenes and Anesthizine Gas I, and my Engineers keep going to Chroniton Mine I and II, Cover Shield I and Combat Supply I.
Hello out there! Did we miss a message somewhere that discontinued the Official LC's? I am the last person to tell a GM how to do their jobs, but it's not a nice feeling to be left hanging for so long. :(
Not to hijack this thread, but Good Lord, this would make for one hella awesome Literary Challenge. This month, our topic will be a single storyline... Memento Mori (OOC: or some other better title) After the events of "Dust to Dust" and the disclosure of Keten/Harry Kim, public opinion about the Kobali's reproduction…
Captain Beringer makes good points about Facility 4028's relative lack of defenses. As a maximum security facility for the Federation's most difficult prisoners, to rely on its relative obscurity as a defense won't help once everyone knows where it is. I remember when I played the computer game Star Wars Rebellion, I would…
Not to overburden Smirk or Trendy or anything, but our planned once a month Literary Challenges seem to have devolved into a bimonthly tradition. Although it is not my place to criticize, I would prefer LC's that run from the first day of the month to the last before being unstickied and a new LC stickied in its place for…
In the end, I lost control of my entry so many times that it took me almost half the month to bring it to some sort of conclusion. In any case, here is an STO version of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" using an Orion general of the KDF. Be wary, for it is rather long.
Literary Challenge #69: Winter Wonderland Celebrations LC69: A Kot'baval Carol === Once upon a time- of all the good periods in the year, during the Kot'baval Festival- Lieutenant General Vriska Serket sat busy in the ready room of IKS Mindfang. Her ledgers continued to trouble her, since in waging her private war against…
I finished a story that I had planned to write since LC59 but never got around to finishing. This one introduces Admiral Lee's Mirror Counterpart as well as a character I hope to develop into a Klingon-side perspective writing. That way, I can explore writing LC69 from a Klingon perspective as well, since I expended the…
Literary Challenge #5: Shards of the Mirror LC05: Glass Spider === It was crewman Hollister's first week on board the Lord English, and already he was feeling a bit weird. Should he say something to the CO of the Lord English? Try to make conversation? Point things out? Air concerns over his job? As Hollister thought, his…
This feels like the October Halloween entry but with winter holidays in place of Halloween. It looks like some outside-the-box thinking will be necessary.
