Student Activity Center

[Marcus Brodie]

Captain Brodie comes into the center with a mug in his hand looking around at the cadets.

"Good evening everyone."

[Ardeth Wildcat]

Hal slammed through the doors again, entering, and leaving a trail of grease inside the room.  This led all the way to Classroom 1.  "Da*n it!  I hate when Ardeth does this, and All I did was forget one little spot on the wall and he yells at me!  I'll show him!" Hal screamed, knocking a chair over hatefully.  He then screamed in rage again, and threw a fit.

[Will Matthews]

"I am eager to get to a ship and work my way up the ranks. I know it will take time but I am ready for a challenge"

[pfakkert]

After a bit of reading , ensign pfakkert took a look at some of the other cadets that were in the Activity center.
There was an impressive Marine recruit at the other side of the room together with a Vulcan.
Some of the other students were human cadets that had also just arrived.
Shall I walk up to them and start a conversation?
Suddenly Ensign pfakkert's padd makes a sound and starts to light up. Aaah, my first Diplomacy test case!!!

[Thomas C. West]

West grins at Hal's antics, then turns his attention back to the conversation.
"I'm not even sure that force is inherently evil. There are good uses of force."

[Ardeth Wildcat]

"Trust me, I can make it difficult.  It's simple.  All you have to do is move the pieces according to where they can move." Hal activated the Chess Program, and sent out a simple hand help pointing device.  "These pieces," Hal said, pointing at the rooks, "can move in straight lines, but not diagonals.  The knights move 3 squares, then 1 square at a 90 degree angle.  Pawns move 2 squares to start, and then one after.  They attack by going sideways.  Bishops move diagonally, and only diagonally.  Queens move in any direction, and like Rooks and Bishops, aren't restricted by numbers.  The king can move 1 square, any direction.  Ready?" Hal said, a chessboard crackling to life. "Use the handheld device I have provided to move the pieces.  Just move, point, and push the little button, then move the piece." Hal said, reading his hard drive for the right kind of pieces.  He settled on old fashioned black and white.  Course, he could also pull a rotten little trick and become one wicked chess player in the middle of the game.  "I warn you, though, I'm gonna get better after this game.  I'm a tad, well, out of practice."

First Contact, is a Delicate Matter, Kawolsky, Your essay is good, but you must remember that First Contact may happen when you least expect it.

*OCC: Am I allowed to switch to cadet, year 2 avatar yet? I've been here for a month?*

[Balkazar]

"I dont care if you have a field commission as a ensign mr reynolds, the day you become a full ensign is the day he will call you, sir.  IS! that understood!.  No Reynolds, he shouldnt.  You should be calling me sir.  Respect your fellow cadets, and never demand they call you something that, I dont think you have earned.  You earn the respect to be called sir, you never demand it.  Now lets all head back to the class room for a pop quiz."
