I don't know if there are any Snap players amongst the startrek.website community, but I've created a loosely Star Trek-themed Alliance, if that's something you'd be into.

Just paste the following into Alliance Search: [UFP] Delta Shift

 

I guess it wasn't an on-camera appearance after all.

It probably wouldn't be newsworthy at all, but my understanding is that municipal governments are required by law to balance their budgets?

They've now released a dev blog about these new ships, so I pasted some comparisons into that thread.

There we have it - it's not so much an "update" as a "replacement."

Aurora then:

The original STO Aurora-class.

Aurora now:

The new STO Aurora-class.

Quasar then:

The original STO Quasar-class

Quasar now:

The new STO Quasar-class

To be clear, those are both the old skins of the Aurora and Quasar, respectively - I have no idea what the new versions look like.

This is a case of Fun With Commas - Sobeys is owned by a different obscene conglomerate, Empire Company.

Metro, Walmart, Giant Tiger, and Empire are the co-conspirators along with the Weston companies.

The Aurora and Quasar variants of the Science Vessel family have been totally remastered!

These are original, alternate skins for the Nova class - it's always interesting when they go back to touch up the really old stuff that nobody really uses any more.

I’ve realized it’s just the colors I don’t like.

Yeah, I think it suffers from the same issue that I had with the New Paradigm Daleks - the colours make it look very plasticy.

If the blue bits had more of a brushed metal appearance, I think it would look a lot better.

I have to admit, I don't envision this thing flying off the shelves.

The detailing is pretty cool, though - it's a shame that hasn't really come through on-screen yet.

We finally have a name!

According to provincial companies office and land titles documents obtained by CBC News on Tuesday, Kelly Vasas is the sole director of a numbered Manitoba company that owns 285 College Ave., where the evictions took place.

Of course, his presence there would have basically made the whole season pointless

I think that's probably why they tucked him into season two instead. I'm guessing they wanted him to appear in a way that wouldn't break the story, and that was easier to do in the time travel caper.

You're right, though - it was a big missed opportunity to reunite him with the cast, and even the set, of the old show.

Well, that's embarassing. I'm a little surprised they don't just disqualify the team and get on with it.

I don't know when it will actually be released, but I think the Lemmy devs are actively working on a post-tagging system. Once it's in place, we will probably figure out how it might best be used in our communities.
