New: USS Majestic (free, open-ended, email, human, space) From: donotreply@pbm.com (PBM List Autoposter) Date: Thu, 14 Apr 2005 19:13:01 +0000 Name: USS Majestic Costs: Free Frequency: 2-3 per week Email: rykaufmann zat yahoo.com URL: http://www.ussmajestic.co.nr/ Type: Star Trek Last-Update: 2005Apr11 Keywords: free, open-ended, email, human, space Description: The USS Majestic is a newly-commissioned Cantell-class frigate in the 9th Fleet's 47th Task Force, assigned to guarding the Romulan Neutral Zone. Captained by Commander J. Eccleston, an acclaimed physicist and Scotsman, she is an Obsidian Fleet Peacekeeping Operations Unit (OFPOU), charged with the mediation and resolution of diplomatic disputes and armed conflicts between Federation member systems. In preparation for her first 3-year mission, Majestic is slated to embark upon a standard crew shakedown and general systems administration test. An additional number of senior officers are currently required to provide for the viability of this assignment, especially qualified engineers, flight operators and tactical systems specialists. A Command Master Chief is also especially needed to provide for the oversight and management of the ship's enlisted crew. Members of the Majestic are routinely expected to publish posts of better quality, length, and consistancy than is the average for Star Trek sims in general and organized Fleet sims in particular. While the group is rated for writers over 13, it is unlikely that applicants will be invited to join unless they can display a comprehensive affinity for and understanding of English and a demonstrable talent for strong dialogue and characterization. The game is written exclusively in third-person, novel-style format, and will emphasize cooperative storytelling and narrative realism over straight combat and dramatic oneupmanship. While explicit material is strictly forbidden under the guidelines of our hosting Fleet, some thematic material will likely be geared more toward adults than minors, and inexperienced writers are strongly discouraged from applying. An online application is available through the Web site. If you have any questions, please direct them either to me or to the moderator first, since declined characters will be automatically referred to the Fleet Command complex for reassignment. Thanks very much! We hope to hear from you. Lt. Eduard Stanlsevic Executive Officer, USS Majestic TF47A [ This is a new entry for the PBM List.
