    Hmm, isn't this a bit too early? I mean surely the Risa Event doesn't start for another month or so, right? :P

    It's never too early for a beach party.
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    What no prizes then whats the point. Just kidding I may be there but won't be sunbathing in a uniform I could get heat stroke. Hopefully Swimsuits will be available for the summer event

    I'm guessing this is 'old' Risa and not the new one? I don't think they'd show that yet on Holodeck till the actual event. Smirk's gonna have to cut through all the friend requests w/ a machete if the streams are any indication.

    Time to dust off the old jetpack and beach-combing shorts...
    Sometimes I think I play STO just to have something to complain about on the forums.

    As a matter of fact not only is it the new Risa but sometime when we weren't visiting they've done some serious expansion work. You can go there right now and it's quite spectacular. The preparations for this years Risa Peak Season are pretty much complete.

    So ... ummm .. .what if you are currently running a Klink or Romklink? ... No beach party for you?

    Unless someone sets up a swimming pool on Nimbus III ... Now there's an idea!

    Really? Is there anything to do besides just fly/run around? This sounds extremely lame. But if its your thing then have fun.

    Marauder is no longer needed to enter Sirius sector. All you need to do is finish the "Surface Tension" FE now.

    New (updated) Risa is already on Holodeck including the new "Surfing Complex", and you can already ask the Tailor about Swimwear ... you just can't buy it yet ...

    Good, concentrate on her. I don't want to see your hands and a bottle of Sun Lotion anywhere near Smirk. :mad:

    This explains the Risa Cruise liner model.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    I completed the current FE and got access to Sirius Sector block, but it did not give me access to Risa, nor did it allow me to depart into Sirius Sector Block from Risa orbit, I had to return to Eta Eridani sector block, as I am NOT a T4 Maurauder, I'm not sure if it's intended or something that was overlooked when the new FE came out.

    Too late. :cool:

    We spent last weekend in Tahiti together, with Trendy and Mrs. Trendy on lounge chairs being pampered by their servants.

    I love being Grand Vizier!

    I'll probably come down and have a peep though.

    Are you STILL without your pleasure palace?

    Damn it!

    Right, I'm calling the Coms-net service staff, and the Pleasure Palace bureau, and everyone else short of the Sovereign himself (who's on vacation). This crappy old Coms-net has plagued the Sovereign and his minions for far, far too long...

    Hail Ba'al!

    It does? How? o.O

    Cause the way I see it, the cruise liner was already explained by the very nature of Risa.
