   Hello all,

After the “false alarm” stories and finding that I wouldn’t be promoted ‘cause I didn’t really get everyone to safety, I now wonder how to get promoted without eating donuts or something like that. Please let me know.

Cheers (*waves blaster*)



C/O Hennen

how you get your rank is your own business.

but i’ll tell you how i got my rank. i was promoted by Adm.Giddens for excellence in building (i think). Adm. Giddens was promoted by the Grand Adm. Sandlin. The Grand Admiral has been Grand Admiral every since he helped invent Spamcake Drive http://news.lugnet.com/space/?n=5174 , but he was a Grand Admiral before, too. I guess he’s just always been the Grand Admiral.

Or you could go the Napoleon1 - Adm.Wells 2 way and promote yourself. But I personally believe in hardwork, creative building, and krispy kreme doughnuts.

1= Napoleon, as we all know, crowned himself Emperor of France, but who’s gonna argue with the Emperor?

2= http://news.lugnet.com/space/?n=23773

I resent that!

Dean, it really isn’t that important. People don’t care whether you’re a Grand Admiral, Donut Admiral, or King of the Fleebnork Fighters. The importance is what you build, how you build it, and how you contribute to the .space community.



Hey Admirals!

Since you don’t think I’m in your league, accept my resignation and I’ll go back to being captain of my squadron.

Also, how do you define contributing to the .space community? I mean, Chris Gidden’s creations are awesome, but I know he’s got a lot more bricks than me! Are you worthy only of Admiralship if you have tons of bricks, and make big ships?

Hope there’s no hard feelings...

(...) Yes, define contributions. By the loose rules here I guess my rank is Troll, because I do not contribute my creations to .space.
