Not even, more like 400, maybe. Of the ones that read here, about 250.







/agree Rangers are more rare then Jedi. And master rangers, that aren't grinders, rarer yet.





But a lot more worthy of their title.

Hello, everyone. I am a Ranger, andI have been since September or October of last year.


I spent 10 hours at the fan fest today, and I was in on the discussion for Scout/Ranger/Creature Handlers.


GreenMarine (who's real name escapes me right now) was the guy who built Ranger in the first place. He expressed his own disatisfaction with not being allowed the time to polish Ranger the way he had intended. He has some geat ideas for us, he has some great stuff WRITTEN for us. He has done some really cool new traps and such...


Greenmarineis currently tied up building the Space Expansion, but even at that he is actively trying to get us some changes. Hehas personally read the Outdoorsman proposal and he said he likes what he sees. He didn't say he endorses the entire plan, but that he "liked it".


Oops, my appologies, the other programmer in this discussion said he had read the proposal and liked it. My mistake. Sorry for the confusion.


Hewants to changeTracking intosomething morepractical, he wants to add additional types ofcamps (including things like Hunting Blinds), he wants to make campsmore functional - saying directly that he would like to see the high tech field baseremain activeeven in combat. He has already scripted new traps, but hasn't been able to implement them yet. There is a lot of stuff coming.


We are going to have to wait though. They have stretched their human resources as thin as they can. While we cannot expect any love until after the Space Expansion ships I personally think the quality of the attention we are going to get will be worth the wait.


Here's the Kicker: GreenMarine is the same developer who did the Chef revamp. I think we can expect some great things.


Just my 2 creds.


Warm Regards,

I'm not sure that's a fair comparison--some of those boxes are really fun.








I enjoy boxes. I built a submarine out of a bunch of HUGE boxes when I was a kid.


It sank.




Mine was a carrier spaceship that brought the mining equipment (the toy in the box) to the planet Zarkon. Can't remember what happened to the toy... funny that...








LOL I have some thing to do with all my shoe boxes in my closet now
