Just a note for all of you who will also be participating in the World Creation Draft next week.

I am feeling a little aggrieved at not receiving any votes in a previous draft this year so if this continues I might be a little bit mean as the admin for the next draft.

 

I note that one person wants to board the Greasy Bastard but that does not mollify me in the slightest.

If I win this one and I was being quite mild in my story and choices, I would feel well disposed to all concerned. But losing might make me angry and you wouldn't like me when I'm angry. I learned that from Bill Bixby.

So I think you know what you should do.

Finally someone wants to board the Liberator.

To the surprise of no-one the Nostromo is not going to be boarded.

 

And if anyone thinks that I will show mercy after what looks like a dismal showing here for me, well if you are in the World Creation Superdraft 'Fasten your seat belts, it's going to be a bumpy night'

I am unsure why anyone would want to board the Titanic.  Haven't you heard....?

Hey, fame is hard to get most ways ;)

 

and depending on the time period, I can leave writing on the side of the ship that says 'JAMES CAMERON DID IT'

Nostromo isn't supposed to have good food.

 

This is the case for most ships, as I understand. "Warm beer and bread they said could raise the dead", as Jimmy Buffett put it.
