I haven't been around that long so I have no right to any present yet. So hereby I exclude myself from receiving any. I do however want to say that I love this community and hope to actively contribute into the next year aswell . This is really a game I feel like investing in.
I would simply like to thank the developer team, the cooperation that took place this year between the OFLs and them was just great, having us be able to influence the future of this overall great community feels good. And regarding certain members themselves, where should I even start? There's so many to list who made the year 824 A.S. a damn lot of fun for me and just listing a few while excluding the rest would be rude. No need to list more than 20 people now, right? Riiiiiiiight?
Special thanks go to my faction members who made me get way too many ideas for the future. I love you guys!
Oh, my character's christmas wishes? That's.. complicated. Most of them don't really celebrate Christmas, some don't have the time, others don't see it as necessary (due to loneliness). But the few who would celebrate it, one of them being Sanae, have quite some wishes. For example Sanae would wish for nothing more than the well-being of her beloved ones, while Rosa surely has a nice imagination about how she ruins the Christmas of a handful of other people as an revenge act...... don't even ask me for the rest of the characters wishes, that would be.. omg way too much.
My last word should be for the community in general, despite the odds, the drama times, the dislike towards other and the weird habit to blame others for every little mistake, we are still playing this old game on a pretty well-made mod, and we all do this (99% of us, atleast I hope so) to have some relaxing nostalgic RP and fun time. And I believe in you all that we can keep this little retreat place alive in the next years and never really lose our will to have fun here.
So, I had been away from Disco for a good few years before coming back around this time and I have to say a big thank you to the people who helped me, I guess in the order of which they did.
@the original ToI team, most of us are still here but here's to our fallen comrades!
@Stolt. Helping ToI be less new, helping out with diplomacy and getting us started.
@Steiner for being there with advice from the start (I guess just after Stolt ), being a solid sounding board for the transition from ToI to BD| and going as far as writing a lot of the lost content we are rebuilding.
@Skorak for basically being my 118118 (directory service for those not in Britain) when I first started he would always answer any questions I had, or point me in the right direction of who to ask next
@Durandal Still in the early days but your feedback on the new BDBS really helped shape the model Swallow is now making for us
@Swallow for actually building the battleship and our cool new theme but also for not losing his shit for being harassed by me basically daily XD
@Xion @Shizune @"NieRdackel" for the handover of BD| tag account and faction.
@St.Denis for general advice and helping explain/sort out our activity tracking.
@Laz for constant forum and bbcode support XD as well as being up for a good laugh.
@Inferno for quickly deleting my threads when I accidentally double post!
@the new and current BD| team, you guys are great and I love enjoying the game with you all
As well as a big thank you to all our friends and enemies in Kusari!
How could i say? I could have too much to talk about how much disco affected me. In short, Disco made up my boyhood. I joined this server in 2010, at that time Sirius was way more bustling than these days. I AFKed for 5 years and returned to Disco 3 weeks ago. Surprisingly i found disco was still alive. Thanks to all the devs, admins and RP immersed folks, i found myself still enjoyed this game so much though years has passed. I Wish Disco could last forever and more players would return. I wish all of you enjoy would be fine both in Sirius and RL. Also, Merry Christmas!
Disco's been consistently amazing for me. This is the most psychotic community of the nicest people in the world, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Also, Bro, invest in a vet package if you haven't already.
Oh my. I actually always wanted to drop a couple of warm words to my Disco guys and the whole community.
Discovery is a good place full of good people. Even those who create problems do it not because of anger, but because of simple misunderstanding or fear. In any case, I'm not here long enough, but for this time I can not just imagine my life without this project. I improved my English, spent a lot of time enjoying the game and talking with interesting people. I wish merry Christmas to everyone here. Spend this time with your families or friends.
Also, I would like to drop a couple of really warm words to the next individuals:
@"Exodite Asmodai" - despite the fact, that we had some musunderstanding in the past, I found out, that you are a nice person. You helped me to go through all RL stuff, happening with me. Also your hugs are really nice.
@JorgeRyan - It's always nice to fly with you, moreover, you are literally the last [KSP] member, who is always ready to help. I wish all factions could have people, like you.
@casualty - Kudos to you for my first RP story, as PFI. It's sad, that things didn't go our way, but still. Also kudos for what you have done in [KSP] and Ageira as well.
@Mr.Mike. - Despite your character, you are a good person, who, probably, just don't know how some of the ropes work.
@Rusty Wing - It was nice to RP with you in [RN], please, come back.
@Dino - Thank you for creating this thing. It's really nice of you.
Merry Christmas everyone!
To review this year, First it started grim for me disco-wise, CR| was in the hands of corrupt, deceiving and unjust. We as players had to set it right, so we were split and gathered under =ARC= to make our belowed Crayter great again. When the year started we were in the middle of an oorp fueled battle least to say. Each pf us defending our causes gathered under CR| and =ARC=. About what was right and what was wrong and how the faction should go. Before that, CR| was a place where poeple had fun, bonded together for a greater cause. Fast forwarding one or two months, with hard work, decidation and some good ol' elbow grease, things been set right.
Old and new players joined alike and formed =CR= afterwards, when tensions dropped down again and a consensus was reached among both factions leaders. After some time, some people left, and =CR= had to be reformed, i was chosen as =CR= s new leader at that time to carry us ever onwards. Thankfully to that time our journey became better, funnier and more glorious. Filled with victories, defeats, some of us flying their ships right into the enemy to save their comrades and sometimes, tears. Despite its start, its ending as a great year for me and =CR=. My christmas wish is enough Money for a CAU8, in my almost 4 years of playing i never had a single CAU8 of my own.
