Colonials allying with Kusari. <-- me becoming head diplomat
Colonials signing peace treaty with Bretland. <-- me leading negotiations (coolest RP ever)

Colonials allying with Bretonia. <-- Linkus as lead diplomat. I was on vacation.
Colonials fighting with Kusari in Kusari and the Taus.
Colonials helping one of the parties in some Coalition civil war.

Colonials still around?
RE: The big Disco timeline database? - Ironwatsas - 01-09-2014
Ame-chan is still around.
Also, when exactly did this happen?
It would have had to been before even I went to Discovery (bulldogNK is visible in the background). I am aware it was the legendary RM-TBH war, but what is the timeframe? Is it 4.84 or earlier?
Another problem is getting the Sirius Years, Real World Years, and Versions to line up. Since we had quite a bit of dissonance there.
Yet another issue is the depth of RP/Admin Policies dictating how things were operated at various times. For example:
Early Discovery (before it was an "RP" server, with lots of import ships.)
Clan Era (Groups like NovaPG, AW, Phantoms, Helghast, Bushido, Hellfire Legion, SA, Etc. Their existence is important enough they'd need to be reconciled with current RP.)
Golden Age of RP (when all the movers and shakers were around. 4.84/4.85 era)
Gallic War era (Degenerate era as I like to call it. I won't be shy about it)
Whatever we're calling it now that Igiss is gone and the admin policies are changed. Nearly all of the 'classic' factions are gone, and the admins, rules, and mechanics are changing.

Now THAT I remember.
One thing I'm curious about is the Outcast-Corsair war. Was that written in by the dev team, or does it take its inspiration from actual server events?
RE: The big Disco timeline database? - Ironwatsas - 01-10-2014
It's a little of both.
It was a turf war extrapolated from Vanilla FL (see rumors on Yanagi and old news articles), but blown out of proportion by Discovery players. They've been dukeing it out as long as I've been here. It's quieted down almost completely as of late, since Omicron Eta was mostly closed off, and Sigma-13 isn't a huge point of contention.
There is, was, and always has been animosity between Corsairs and Outcasts, but the full scale war and massive invasions of Alpha and Gamma are a Discovery invention. I don't believe it was consciously planned beforehand by anyone really. It just sort of happened.
Most of this was back in the era where there were several coalitions of player factions and independents who just wanted something to kill, and Gallia and the SCRA hadn't become huge at that point. Back when you had the 101st/Shadow Outcast Brigade/RoS fighting the Brotherhood/OPG/Benitez. =CR= would periodically mess with the outcasts, and the RHA and BHG would mess with the 'sairs.
RE: The big Disco timeline database? - lIceColon - 01-10-2014
Well, I set up a prototype database on google sites here. Nothing fancy but should get this idea up and going.
Do your part and participate now, try the input form and give me some feedback
RE: The big Disco timeline database? - Ironwatsas - 01-16-2014
A problem occurs.
Nobody, myself included, remembers the exact dates of all of this. Most of the forum threads or screenshots I could use to find out are so old that they would have been long since eaten by the forum.
We'll need to go back in time to dig them up. Look for anything big enough that we remember it.

RE: The big Disco timeline database? - ProwlerPC - 01-19-2014
Well I couldn't get exact dates for everything yet, I also might not have gotten everything I could in here either so some edits might appear here as I uncover more details I mighta missed. Still for the one's I couldn't get dates I did as much research and cross referencing as I could so that I could place it all in proper order. It's as close as I can get it at the moment and I'd be happy to hear anyone's input if they know something I've missed.

818 A.S:
Merc Wars in Liberty due to Natalie Callahan infamous and glorious bounty on Liberty Navy and Security Forces capitals.
More than 700 or 800 million credits were collected by various mercenaries/freelancers, all independent. Basically, capitals that logged in Liberty were immediately showered with novas and snacs, due to the inability of the lawful forces to keep track of what freelancers and mercenaries were doing it.
Another contract to kill mercenaries and freelancers shooting lawful capital forces appeared after a month, resulting in the Merc Wars, where you would see mercenary vs mercenary while capitals kept exploding all around them.
