      Yes, the one in the same system as New France. If you look in the data file, it has a description which identifies it as a penal colony. Rak apparently knew this and sent Thought Police there, so I rescued him, and used the opportunity to make a shameless plug at the same time. 😄 EVula would probably be proud. 😉

      Mac comes and glues Luke's eyes, ears, and mouth shut, to protect both the squirrels and Luke's self from Luke. He then adds another layer of glue to the wall for good measure. He also glues Luke's arms to the wall.

      Mac puts up a sign over Lukes head.

      +--------------------------------------------------------+
      | Throw baseballs at Luke, only 10 credits! |
      +--------------------------------------------------------+

      Mac puts a radar gun in the sign, so people can find out how fast their ball went. Mac throws one which hits Luke in the arm at 68 MPH.

    • Skyblade pulls out a Dr. Pepper / Coke automatic machine gun and sprays Mac long and hard for commiting acts of violence (as if I haven't... :p).

      After Mac drops dead from the millions of cans slamming at him, Skyblade picks him up and again dumps him in the farthest corners of the galaxy.

      (You know, we outta become allies again in the bar ;)).

    • Rak reincarnates and boards the Insight. Blasting off with Rebellion Fleet X1, Rak assumes atmospheric dominance. In a coordinated action, the Machine Guns and Proton Turrets in BB9 suddenly activate, slaughtering the people in BB9. Outside, TTP is frantically running to his Scoutship...
      ---------------
      TTP frantically runs to his scoutship, and yells to his first mate to start the engines. Jumping into the cockpit, he straps himself into the seat and arms his quad turbolaser cannons. Suddenly, the warning klaxon bares and his TWR screen goes beserk. A trio of over stuffed space bombs are diving at his scoutship. He presses the ejection handle, but nothing happens. Inside the engine of the Scoutship, the emergency eject button has been drepressed, but due to a connection failure, the cockpit seals itself...
      ---------------
      A huge explosion rocks the ground as the scoutship and its crew are killed; the puny shuttlecraft destroyed...
      ---------------
      Mac, in his shiny decked out Corvette, cruises into space. Using a false transponder code, he appoaches the Insight. He launches his nuclear payload, and hits the deck.
      ---------------
      Warning klaxons blare in the Insight as four nuclear tipped cruise missiles rocket towards it. Scoring direct hits, the Insight is destroyed. Rak ejects to another Rebel Cruiser. Unfortunately for Mac, the Rebel Destroyer Nova Scotia has a direct lock on his ship, and shoots a battery of rockets up its engines...
      ---------------
      Floating back to BB9 in an escape pod, Mac relaxes. Just then, a missile penetrates the escape pod and blows him to kingdom come.

    • Mac voids Rak's post on the grounds that fleets are not allowed, at least not to attack. Also, I don't have any nukes, and you couldn't fire them if I did. The rules are single, legal in game ships, and let's make it ciilian ships too. Government people would hang out in higher class, less dangerous bars. OK, everyone? I think it'll be more fun if we all just get one civvie ship, with maybea fighter escort or two, since Kestrels have Lightnings.

      Also, for Skyblade. Don't you remember, we've been through this before? Shooting cans at either of us doesn't work, we just catch and drink them. 😛 Of course, I can't drink as fast as you can, so I start making a pile, and soon have to start throwing them out the window. By the time Skyblade gives up, a full acre is covered with Coke cans. Mac and Skyblade become friends again, and decide to work on drinking all the Coke cans. Mac has to take a while to let his stomach recover first though (it's weaker than Skyblade's), and by the time he goes out, Skyblade has drank it all.

      Mac takes off in his Corvette again, and flies out to the main spaceport a short ways away.

      Don't forget the unwritten "no killing everyone" rule. 🙂

      Starkiller, slightly miffed by what just happened, and suspicious about a possible temporal change, steps in to the Boozerama Bar (9), and promptly falls out the window.

    • After thanking Mac for saving him from awful prison food and getting him a nice shiny scoutship, TTP communicates to UGE that their shipment won't be making it. Using the trade in value of the scoutship and the insurance on the clipper and cargo, TTP can now afford a second-hand Argosy 🙂

      "Thanks Mac, need any cargo runs done?"

      ::Attends the funeral of his escorts::
      ::Returns to the bar::

      (No Shuttlecraft were harmed in the making of this post)

    • Skyblade, happy to hear that Mac and him are on good terms once again, orders a free Dr. Pepper for all the Boozerama members. 😉

    • OH! Free DP! Insano drinks it and wonders what it tastes like. After all, I've never had a DP. Insano then sells his highly modified rebel cruiser and buys a kestrel in order to obey the rules. He then parks it outside and asks if the duck races will ever start again.

      Starkiller looks suspiciously at the drink that has been placed in front of him on the floor. He watches as a cat comes in, drinks the Dr. Pepper, scratches his face up, and then leaves. Starkiller then wanders over to a gumball machine, and inquires about purchasing cat insurance.

      Insano watches Rak and reminds him of this simple rhyme.

    • Rak backhand slaps Insano with a pair of brass knuckles on. As Insano falls, his mouth bloody, Rak wonders why Lyra quit the BB series. He sort of misses her confrontation and smart allecking. Wait... Rak is dru...u...un (Rak slumps over unconcious).

      Didn't I say no escorts except possibly a few fighters? 😛

      Mac flies back from the spaceport, 4 Defenders flying cover, and lands again. He walks back in and takes advantage of the free DP. Since Mac is the bartender, though, it doesn't mean a lot to him, and he dumps it on OV, making him more sticky. Then, he gets himself another, and goes back to where Luke is stuck to the wall. Sipping his DP, he adds another layer of glue, in case the first layer was weakening. "Doesn't anyone want to throw baseballs at Luke?" he asks. "Remember, only 10 credits, and you get your throw clocked on the radar gun, fee of charge!"

    • Rak, in his drunkness, accidentally grabs some golf balls instead of baseballs. He begins pelting Luke. Suddenly, Luke begins to foam at the mouth and his eyes roll up into his head. The next ball, clocked at 120 mph, hits him square in his head...
