Check it here:(URL) ExoJeep> This is my second entry to the space wheels contest. A little bit more rugged than the Moon Buggy, and better inspired by landscape scenes of Mars and my Jeep. -Avery (20 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.gaming.starship, FTX)

(...) Speaking of being alive, Helix is running, just not a lot of players in-sector. Maybe your space liners would profit by taking tourists to see the race. Otherwise, the inter-adventure lull may hold clues to the next adventure... Shamelessly (...) (20 years ago, 22-Oct-04, to lugnet.gaming.starship)

Hi all, Yeah, I finally get to make a post about Starship-related stuff. But first a bit about how I'm able to post this. If you don't care, skip this section. My math problem has not been fixed, but it has not worsened. My teacher, noting that half (...) (20 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.gaming.starship, FTX)
