all you have to do is send her a pic of you wearing a uniform at at any sci fi convention!!!


Go to a convention. Take picture of self to show you went. Send to lizard. Receive code. ???? Profit.

As I understand, Europeans like celebrating at conventions too! Like Fedcon for example!

Go to sci fi convention. Wear uniform. Get all the orions. Plus code.

    She also said she was pretty sure she's not a lizard. I don't know what to believe anymore...

    since she doesn't specify WHICH uniform, does that mean you can wear anything classed as one, including RL military ones?​​
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
    An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
    A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
    A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"

    "It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch."

    Passion and Serenity are one.
    I gain power by understanding both.

    It's too bad I'm not really the social kind of person. I thought the deal was that, if you are glued to your computer all day like I am, you could get anything you want. Do I really have to go out and be among other people now to get these? :/

    Can I post a pic from 1981?
    I also have a couple of polaroid's from the 1972 Con in NYC...
    But they aren't really public kinda material.
    I do have Spock Ears on though...

    I don't have a uniform that fits anymore. Old TNG halloween costume from the 90s. I DO have the Collector's Edition of STO with the badge though.

    But I'd probably have to wait until next year's Sakuracon, although I doubt that counts either unless I get a pic of me and a few sci fi cosplays. Saw a couple guys dressed as two versions of The Doctor while I was there this year.

    well at least they made it a general thing that most trek fans can get at... I still remain in the 'cannot get' catagory tho :/ Last con I went to was in the early 90s and I wouldnt know where to find those actual physical photos anymore anyway

    I told the german police on my way to the fed-con that technically I’m just wearing a Na'kuhl outfit from Star Trek Enterprise.

    Would my arrest photo still qualify me here? I really wanted to get there you know…

    Dayem yeah. Thats goin back 15 years at least for me last time i went to a con probably closer to 20. Met Robert Picardo, man that was a thrill (seriously hes a great person). I highly doubt im fitting in that outfit ever again heh if i even still have it. Can we make a sacrificial offering to trendy instead :) ?

    Edited: looked like i was whining :) not my intention at all

    Bah...I'd love the swag but some of us are limited to places they can go irl by pesky meat defects (which is a joy to how many games now have a social component that require you to, well, be able to move (I -love- games where you can get items from moving in the world..not)

    If I get bored I'll have to try making my own set​​

    I will send her a pic of me in my official BK uniform, and BKcon later today. I never get to go to actual conventions, as I am too busy making cash to buy zen with.​​

    So awesome! Now my plan is to go to Cherry Hill at the end of the month (since I work like 5 minutes away). And get a pic!

    Now to find a uniform. Hmmmmm.

    She never said Star Trek uniform. So i can use my work uniform? And any convention? Like Republican National Convention?
  • echattyechatty Member Posts: 5,917 Arc User
    I'm out either way. I've never been to anything that even qualifies as a convention. So I guess I'm SooL for convention things.
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D

    What messaging service is preferred to accomplish this task. I tried the forum mail system. Is twitter better?

    Last one I could show would be one that had Koeing, Takei, and Nichols. On the upside they totally loved our TWoK uniforms and said they were the closest they'd seen to the ones they wore.... Thats when we found out theirs were WOOL and the set was at like 60f so the actors didnt overheat in those things. Also they were wearing full turtleneck sweaters under the jackets, we chose a 'fake out' with just the collar and neck area.

    Then again we're from florida... wool and full length sweaters were NEVER gonna happen

    Shame that I've never been to a convention nor own a uniform of any kind I guess I'm still out of luck. No worries though.

    Me too. A darn shame. I really would've liked having Spock and Bones. I sympathize with the bigger TOS fans than me that also don't qualify.
