Des smiled at Bjorn, he could tell this was the type of person he would have as a friend. He could sense I kindness in him he hardly ever sees in others. He knew somehow that Bjorn was the type of person who enjoys helping others.

"Yeah... Things have been hectic since I arrived, couldn't sleep. And no, not really a therapist, more than that. I think its a great post to be in and I am looking forward to it."

Des noticed a shuttle craft fly-by to the back of the Academy, its registration showed it belonged to the USS Braveheart.

"Would you look at that?" Des pointed out with controlled and calm excitement.

Bjorn liked too talk to Des. He is the first one Bjorn spoke too that was also an Cadet ever since he had arrived at the Academy. Bjorn hoped that they could become friends, because he doesn´t knew anybody at the Academy so far. And well, it´s nice to have friends altogether.

Bjorn noticed that Des was looking at something and followed his sight. A shuttle craft flew-by to the back of the Academy. Bjorn couldn´t see the registration of the shuttle craft.

"Would you look at that?" ,Des pointed out. Bjorn continued to follow the shuttle craft through the sky and was hypnotized by the rising sun. The beautiful orange glow lighted up the sky and made the shuttle craft shine in the morning sun glow.
" What so special about an shuttle craft?", Bjorn asked Des. "They fly-by often here", Bjorn said with a grin on his face. Bjorn looked outside and saw an gardner working. Poor fellow, Bjorn thought, he must work a lot, since all the cadets rush to there classes and crush the flowers in there hurry. Bjorn looked at Des, awaiting his answer.

Des looked at Bjorn with a almost like a question mark hanging above his head. He couldn't believe Bjorn didn't know what was special about that shuttle. Des had realized it was probably there to pick the cadets up for the ceremony.

"Well, that shuttle belongs to the flagship of Taskforce 354. The USS Bravehart. It is my dream to serve on her class, the Sovereign Class." Des replied to Bjorn

=^=Too all Cadets, please meet at shuttle bay 12 for the departure to the ceremony at 1830. =^=

"Well, I guess we better get going. I will chat to you soon, maybe have a game of Squash when we get back?" Des said enthusiastically with a big smile and a hand shake. "See you later and hakuna matata."

Cadet,

I suggest re-looking over the ship assignments for the Fleet! The USS Braveheart is not listed as Flagship for TF354.

"Well yes, let´s do thatWink Sounds like fun!", Bjorn said will shaking Des´s hand. Bjorn looked at Des walking away.
After watching Des walking away, Bjorn turned and walked back to his Quarters.

Bjorn arrived at his Quarters and found and PADD at his door from Admiral Malloway saying that Bjorn was invited to an ceremony on Starbase Thrinacia. Bjorn instantly got the biggest smile on his face while reading the invitation. He just couldn´t believe that he was invited to an ceremony. The PADD didn´t stated where the ceremony was about.
He packed his suitcase and got a coffee from the replicator.

This is all very exciting, Bjorn thought while sitting in a chair.

OOC: Cadet Angelicus, may I inform you of the following:

Quote:ALL Cadet training is suspended for the time being. For now ALL Cadets are required to report to the FLEET MISSION thread, and join in the Fleet Mission Party. Once the party is over, ALL Cadets will return to their respective Academy Classrooms and resume training.

Captain Ethan Train

Quote:To ALL,

Please remember we have a Fleet Mission to get through! We'll get by quicker with all crews of all ships participating - not just the COs and XOs! The more there are, the more fun it becomes! AND I have something up my sleeve for people to sink their teeth into!

EXECUTIVE ORDER
In order for our Cadets to learn, as well as add to the fun as mentioned previously, you are hereby GRANTED PERMISSION to join the rest of the Fleet officers on our Fleet Mission. THERE ARE SOME STIPULATIONS:
- You are still ranked as Cadet
- IGNORE any posts you have done in the Academy Grounds - they are practice only
- You are still undergoing your training at the Academy and should have arrived as such, planning to return to the Academy AFTER the mission ends after the ceremony
- You are NOT therefore assigned to one of our ships as of yet, and you are to play as though studying the chosen class you are receiving training in
- REMEMBER your post training - use timestamps and bear in mind those that have already been used by others - you should have arrived at the ceremony by 1900 hours, dont post as being late!
- You know NOTHING about the Iconian Gateway until it is unveiled during the ceremony

To summarise: Cadet Something may have arrived by shuttle from Earth at 1830, gone to change, and arrived at the ceremony on time. Cadet Something is on invitation BY ADMIRAL MALLOWAY to attend the ceremony and could be studying Helm back on Earth. He plans to leave the Starbase via a return shuttle at 0900 hours the next day. As an example.

If you are a Cadet who has not yet reported in to the Academy via the Headquarters forum then please do so FIRST and wait until your training is confirmed before joining us.

Anyone with questions/concerns/issues, please get in touch with me.

Regards,

Admiral Steve Malloway, Commanding Starbase Thrinacia
Fleet Commanding Officer, United Federation of Planets Defence Fleet

Remember to also read other posts. In here , we´ve also said that we where leaving with the shuttleWink
So you´re timestamp isn´t possible. But if you chance it to, let´s say 12H00 Hours, i can reply to youWink

Sincerely,
Cadet Bjorn

Cadet Bjorn,

First off, I appreciate you trying to help the new cadet, however, that is my job, and I have given him other instructions for the time being. Please refrain from posting ANY instructions for others, as you are just as new.

Second, please recheck your use of timestamps...I believe I asked that you use our format, being the following:

as an example:

USS Braveheart
Bridge
0700 Hours


NOT

USS Braveheart
Bridge
07H00


Thanks,

Captain Ethan Trane

Angelicus entered his quarter. He looked around with his sack still in his shoulder. "Well, this is going to be comfy", he thought to himself. "The room is just the right size, not too big nor small. It is also quiet, just like what I need.", he murmured to himself.

He then put his sack on the floor and start unpacking his stuff.

"Computer", he cried, "Music, Voyage voyage by Gregorian."

The computer complied and the music starts to fill the room. Angelicus continues to unpacking.

As the song nearing to an end, Angelicus put his last item to one of the drawer. "Hmm...I pack lightly, so unusual for me, well I guess there is the first time for everything.", he thought. He puts the item to the drawer then close the drawer. "Tea, earl grey, double sugar, hot!" he ordered in strong French accent as he approaches the replicator. The replicator buzzing and voila! The cup of tea appeared before him. He took the tea, and sit on the chair.

"Computer, play something soothing now, I know, Irish harp!" He said. "Please specify title" replied the computer.
"Down by the Sally Garden", replied Angelicus.

As the computer start playing the music, Angelicus sip his tea. "This tea is excellent", he thought to himself. "Ah c'est la vie. Une tasse du thé, belle musique. C'est parfait."

Suddenly his bell door rang. "Hmm..I wonder who could that be?" He thought. He wakes up from his chair and put his cup at the table and approaches the door. He then open the door.

Cadet,

While I am not going to directly respond to your post, I do want to point out a few things for you with posting format.

First your timestamp is almost perfect. In the last line, the hour line, we use a 24 hour clock, also there is no need to put an H between the times. So to use your timestamp as an example, it would look like this:

Starfleet Academy
Cadet Quarters 3A
1900 Hours
                                        ******simply remove the 'H' between 19 and 00 the rest is perfect.

Please read the following material as well

How to lay out your post.
Below are a few guidelines on how to make your post clear and easy to read. Could you make sure that you follow these guidelines so that the rest of the crew know exactly what's happening. Hopefully this should avoid some confusion.
•  At the top of each post, you should start with the time/location stamp e.g.:
USS Braveheart
Bridge
1000 hours
As you read other people's posts and create your own you will become aware that there are several different ways of writing them. There isn't one way that is right and one that is wrong, instead different styles will suit different occasions and different people. There are two general styles of role playing:
•  The 'prose/story-telling' method. Better known as 3rd person. An example of this is:
John awoke after the annual office dinner party, he felt cotton-mouthed, and his head felt as though his brain was raging a war against forehead. As he stood, he slid his feet into his slippers, and stood up to look into the mirror. “Oh god, I look awful.” John moaned aloud…
•  The 1st person is another common style. An example:
I awoke this morning, feeling cotton-mouthed. Last night was the annual office dinner party, and now my head felt like a war was raging within; the brain versus the forehead. As I stood, I slid my feet into my slippers and looked into the mirror. “Oh god, I look awful.” I moaned…
As well as these 2 main ones, there are various others, and varying people use unique ones to themselves. It all depends on how people prefer to RP.
The name of the game is to use your imagination and not just say, 'Aye, aye Captain' or 'On my way, sir' but rather to create your own little piece of the story. It is up to each of the crew members to create their own little pieces of the story and weave them into everyone else's little pieces to end up with an exciting and compelling mission. Your guidelines are to work with the information presented to you already in the story and in other characters bioprofiles.
A Few Guidelines to Observe
One question which I am frequently asked is whether it is alright to use other people in your posts. I actually encourage it as that is a large part of role-playing. However, unless you want to upset people you should try to stay within the guidelines already laid out for that character by relating to their bioprofiles and previous posts. Below are a few guidelines laid out for you to follow that are intended to make the Roleplay more enjoyable for everyone.
•  Don't kill, maim, marry, or otherwise significantly alter the life of someone else's character without their permission.
•  Be careful, when writing for someone else's character, to try and stay as closely as possible within the parameters and guidelines that player has already established. In other words, try not to get out of character.
•  Please do NOT publicly criticize another player. If you have a problem with someone, there are proper ways of dealing with it.
If it is personal, player-to-player, then write an E-mail to the player concerned. Please don't send copies to anyone else unless it directly involves them or you think a moderating voice will be needed (preferably the Commanding Officer or VCinC/CinC).
If it is a question of difficulty with a post, refer it to the offending player, the Captain and Admiral. Cross-postings and other such difficulties are best handled by a little judicious brainstorming and a 'patch' post, resolving the inconsistency. Often, the Captain will catch and fix these things before they even become a serious problem.
•  When creating NPC characters the rule of thumb usually is to try to keep them of same or lower rank than your highest ranking character. Especially command rank NPCs are a field where you can get yourself into trouble. Permanent NPCs you want to keep around your PCs are suggested to be Ensigns or NCOs. It is favorable to request consent from your CO for more pips on them. The use of NPC Captains and above requires clearance and advice from the Admiral in charge.
Playing Your Character
Everyone plays and has suggestions on how to play a character differently. As a player you should work to develop your own style of play as long as it doesn't adversely affect other player characters or make a dramatic change to the current storyline.
One mistake new players make when they first start role-playing in a Free-Form format, is including too much information. Remember to keep a little mystery. Only give enough information to allow others to interact with you. If you 'tell all' the first time out, you'll have no room to develop your character.
Forms of Communication
There are several different forms of communication practiced in the Star Trek continuum. Each mode has its own symbols used to note its use and to keep you from explaining each time where it came from.

•  "Standard speech uses quotation marks."
•  Intercoms and communicators use =/\= or =^=
•  Computers tend to use asterix, such as *Information unavailable*
•  Telepathic contact and own thoughts are placed within [ i ]italics[ / i ] (without the spaces)
Also to make something bold, either to stress a word or words, and to make your timestamp stand out, we use [ b ] word or words or timestamp [ / b ] again, without the spaces

For ease of use, if you use the forums to write your posts, the buttons above the posting box have B and I buttons for bold and italics. When you click them, it will add the code for you, you just need to type what you want in between the codes.

Other forms may develop as needed.
How To End Your Post
When you have finished writing your post, you have one of two options. TAGing, or not TAGing.
TAGing signifies you need a response from another character, and not TAGing the opposite. Most people use TAGs all the time, sometimes ending ‘TAG: ALL’ or ‘TAG:ANYONE’.



I also still need you to choose the area of study you wish you pursue. Once you do that, I'll set up a classroom for you, and we can continue your training there.

Time flew by.
Bjorn was busy settling down in his quarters. He was unpacking all his stuff, but left a bit in his suitcase, because he went to the ceremony tonight at Starbase Thrinacia. Better to have a fresh clothes with you, just in case. You just never know.., he thought to himself.
As he looked through his quarters, it felt a bit like living alone. And i´m just 18..
He loved the smell of his just neatly decorated and clean quarters. Well, you can´t say that i didn´t do my best!
´Computer, dim lights´, Bjorn said to the Computer. *Acknowleged*, the Computer said in response.
Bjorn looked at his map of the Academy, where is the canteen around here..., he questioned himself, Sometimes, the real thing is much better than all the replicated stuff...
After a few minutes of searching, he found the directions towards the canteen. Well, let´s get some food!, he thought.

Hungry, hungry, hungry, was the only thing Bjorn thought about enroute towards the Canteen.
