We had the pleasure of having a mother-daughter team on this mission:
MountainGrown inducted her mom, now known as Zebra. She witnessed
several misfortunes. USB Famine suffered a mechanical failure. Pants
were caught in chainrings on two separate occassions, one of which
produced a new artifact, the Shroud Of Bushido. We decided to head off
for our usual derby fun. MonkeyBoy's ship, MMC VilliageIdiot suffered
a complete structural failure in a bunnyhop manuever. After discussing
several options, we were forced to send for transport. Waltor returned
and shuttled MonkeyBoy and his broken ship back to base, only after
some navigational errors literally putting him "on the wrong side of
the tracks".
While awaiting for transport, the fleet kept themselves amused with
BRC Summer slalom, which Moose seemed the luckiest. Other pilots also
did well. Several crashes occured. A few derbies provided more
crashing and injury.
After the transport shuttle, we retured to base with yet another
crash. MountainGrown had to switch ships, for Famine was refusing to
behave. Cest la vie. From there we split up, half of us returning to
base to lick wounds and sleep it off, and the other half ventured
onward to Space Station Barfly, where cold chillin was in effect. It
was a welcome sanctuary after a punishing yet somewhat enjoyable
failed mission.
