I come back after being away, and . . . . . . .

What worries me about 'the second big announcement' is that it smacks of Mongoose being taken over (ala TSR, then Wizards).

Even though sometimes its a good thing, it still concerns me if you kwim?
 
Hey Lt. Welcome back :D.

May things go well for you.

Watch that AWOL stuff, though. LTs can receive administrative punishment too, you know. :lol:

What is coming is not too far down the road in the grand scheme of things and it will blow your socks off.

Grand scheme of things ? That could mean 2 years or more couldn't it ? In that it sounds like talking about decades mean nothing compared to eons ? Hope not.

Yes but Matt may have no choice but to be vague, based upon past declarations. This way at least things can change down the road and it still fits with what he said. I'd say he's learning. The only other method of being 100% accurate is to have never said anything at all.:wink:
 
@ BuShips
Good point. Look how well posting their release dates has done for them. :wink: By leaving it vague, Matt has left himself some wiggle room.

@ Lt. Rasczak
The yahoo group has been ominously silent actually until lately. The original "big announcement" really slammed the brakes on things, both for me and for the group. I was even thinking about giving up on the whole thing for a while out of frustration, but I decided to stick with it. Right about the time that it all happened, I had some ideas for extra things to do for the group that I was considering (more regular content, maybe some contests) but without regular releases it really derailed that whole plan Hopefully once the production troubles with SST:Evo are resolved I will be able to start making some of these pipe dreams a reality. :D 8)

Welcome back.

The Fleet Landing Party has just been released. So that is something new.

Btw- What happened to your website?

According to Blueyonder there was a copyright infringement complaint, so they took it down :(

Sorry to hear. That stinks. I'd guess it was the Dalek SST stats and hope it wasn't the SST material.

I suppose I'll post some of those SST articles I had for your website to dyssnowman's Yahoo group instead.
 
Man LT! Sorry to hear about the website! It was one of my favorite haunts. I guess your run of luck is continuing! :(

If it was the Doctor Who material, I can imagine the drone from the lawyers... "Exterminate, EXTERMINATE!!"
:lol:
 
Could it have been Blue Yonder just trying to cover their own butt, rather than an actual complaint? My swiss-cheese memory doesn't remember what was on the site and I am not familiar with Blue Yonder or their policies; just a thought really.

There were disclaimers about it being a fan work etc, and usually the Beeb are fairly cool with fan works.

They were very specific about it being a complaint in the Email.
