    • Ambrosia: Can't come up with origional names?


      While playing the triple-agent plug in, I noticed that Azdgari, Zidagar and Igadzra use the same letters, just inan anagramic order. 🙂
      Has anyone else out there just realised this, or am I just wayyy out of touch?

    • Peter Cartwright made the EVO scenario; he's outside of Ambrosia by a few thousand miles.

      BTW, you're WAY out of touch, otherwise you'd also realize that 'Gadzair' is spelled with the EXACT SAME LETTERS.

    • Yeah, slug. Pretty cool, huh? Did you also notice that the planet that Council Station orbits, Gadzair, is an anagram of the above three? Try giving Beyond the Crescent a run-through. You can find it in the archives.

    • Actually, I'd call this style rather than a lack of originality. It gives much more cohesion than a collection of names with very different feels to them.

    • If you read the documentation it'll tell you that all 3 strands are the same species, just different political groups.

      Put 1 un punctured hot dog in micro wave. Set Timer on 5 minutes. Watch as the hot dog grows and bubbles. Minutes later you'll have your very own personal exploding hot dog.

    • Hmm. Would that make it "Escape Levo City?" 🙂
      While we're talking about system names, I'm sure most of you have noticed the Curzon and Jadzia systems in the original EV, right? Has anyone thought to add an Ezri system in one of their plugins? (I could try to list a whole bunch more names, but I can't remember them all right now)
