I just completed the polaris string 10 mins ago, and I think it is not that logical. If they say that Ory'hara (myself) had just sacrificed himself, and why would I go to Our Spiel? and the dialog box says that millions of years had passed, then it was june 16th 2009nc before i completed the string, and when I was on our spiel the date was still june16th 2009nc? It was STILL not a day! Does the evn programmers know how to count months? And the pilot file should be deleted because it says that ory'hara had just sacrificed himself! Dosent the word "sacrifice" means gone forever? Like Iusa did in the preamble. Consider this, folks.

Either you can tell yourself "it's just a game, now that the game has ended it doesn't have to hold true to the story."
Or, you can figure that your pilot is now a reciencarnation(sp?) of your previous pilot, and is flying around trying to figure out why only a little time has passed.

I didn't think Ory'Hara sacrificed himself. The Polaris sacrificed themselves, their independence, and probably much of their culture.

Ory'Hara became one with the universe. That would make him a disembodied, nearly all-powerful spirit - much like Prime and Krypt. Just how much of the universe his conscience permeates isn't clear, and it's probably not important. He's big.

The text says that he can return to material form, and will do so in the distant future. It does not say that he will not do so at other times as well.

WraithSniper is right. The game is over. You may continue if you like.

Oh my god! I need to do a plugin something like reign of the voinians for evo! I want a reign of the Polaris plug! I dont know anything except to edit mission's availrandom to 100%! I have installed novatools! Resedit isn't user friendly!! Please help folks! Email is zerg.zergling@pacific.net.sg!

P.S. Mu'Randa, if you're in this forum, please transform me back to human! I have done sooooo much for the polaris!!

------------------

I am Ory'hara!! I am waiting for either Mu'hari or someone to transform me back to human form!

:smirks: Get Unity, Part One. It will extends the Polaris Storyline.

------------------

NOTE: I am Zergling, this time backwith a fully Polaris name. Email is the same.

I've been destroying auroan ships in Sender system for the past 3 hours. I cloak when my shields run low. Take a look at 2 extracts of my pilot log:


-----FED SPACE----

Current system: Sender (269)
Legal status: -409 (in system 269)

-----POLARIS SPACE-----

Current system: Mu'hari (245)
Legal status: 113 (in system 245)

I turly love the Polaris!

Plz help me design a plug! Where can I find unity?

P.S. Mu'Randa, are you in this forum?

I am Ory'hara! I am
waiting for either the
Mu'hari or other castes

I'm very glad you seem to have enjoyed our game. I'm not sure, though, that many people on this webboard will appreciate your attempts at role-playing. I would suggest reading the board guidelines before posting again.

It's just a game, man. A single-player game. No one can tell that you've killed their ships. No one really cares.

Attention Ory'hara. You have done well. This is Nil'kemorya Command. I have issued data to your vessel's environmental controls. The cabin is now being flooded with an invisible chemical which will protect you from SARS for 48 hours. Please land on Earth and proceed to the nearest Denny's eating establishment. Mu'Randa is being held there against her will by the manager. Go at once to rescue her. You are our only hope.

Ory'hara, this is Nil'kemorya Command. Stand down your attack on Earth, it is a diversion. forge is making a strike at Outbound.

lord_scythe: Indeed, but we must be aware, Ory'hara will try to intercept us on this dangerous mission. Keep you lasers, rockets, and shotgun toting redneck badgers with six heads on standby.

BattleDoctor: Roger that.

Rooster He'Okka's Striker quickly docked with the Scythemobile and the Ory'hara walked with him to the bridge. Rooster took the tactical station. Scythe: "Analysis, Rooster!" Rooster: "The fleet seems to consist of three Unibrow Cruisers, a Sombrero, and Pikeman's foreskin. Ory'hara, what should we do?!" Rooster slapped a kitten impatiently as he waited for Ory'hara's response.

Polaris 2: oh is it?
ory'hara: i used a plugin.
Ory'hara: Leave now.
Polaris 2: yeah, buddy, lets leave. We have a movie to watch later.

Ory'hara: Site admin still havent listed it, i dont know why.

Ory'hara:Polaris Commander, when can I get my new nil'kimas raven? and my credits?

------------------
Search!

Rooster turns to see Ory'hara writhing on the floor, delirious, chewing the kitten playfully. Scythe: "What's wrong with him?" Rooster pulled a syringe out of his drug bag. Rooster: "Mu'Randa was successful in lacing his brain with semi-gloss paint through the eyes. Damn her loins!" Rooster inserted the syringe and Ory'hara asked where he was. Rooster: "You're aboard the Scythemobile, and we are in great danger! We need you, Ory'hara!" Scythe ejaculated.

To reach that which you seek, the Walmart, there are certain mental boundries that must be crossed; rules that must be broken, and time spent in a place far from where you will ever be.

So cast off your shackles which are shackled to that which shackles you to your own shackled indifference, and follow the true path where the path that once lay ahead of you will lay behind you when you reach it. And it will be so that you will reach the Walmart.
