Weekly Blue Planet Trafficshare Update
May 17th 2011

Welcome once again to our Weekly Update! We have a few cool things for you this week as the Trafficshare system is up and running fully now! Of course with this it means that the weekly update form has to be filled out and delivered by Monday of each week by the official Trafficshare rep. Of course I would like to thank those that filled it out for this update and I hope that it helped determine what to update!


Trafficshare Announcements
Our main announcements this week come along the lines of our Section 31 partners. They’ve been undergoing some changes, growth and attempts to bring activity back up. On top of that, there are some new sims beginning in the near future so there’s some exciting things happening!

Current Trafficshare Sites


Section 31 Roleplay

Section 31 Roleplay is primarily a RPG-X Based Group, onto which we
roleplay on our 2 servers. We are a group of people aiming to create a
welcoming environment, onto which our officers can relax and enjoy their
time. We do not wish to burden anyone with lots of responsibilities, or
make them feel like they are not wanted, as everyone in our community
is!

The sim is not yet ready for applications as we are still working on the logistics of getting it set up, however keep an eye on the page, you may see a major graphical overhaul very soon http://www.section31rp.co.uk/challenger

We are also proud to announce our new SRP Star Trek: Outpost 12 by Richard Evans. Outpost 12 is a Live RP using the Star trek voyager Elite Force mod RPG-X, the complete version is available here if you wish to get involved: http://last-outpost.net/forum/index.php?topic=1118. For more information on Outpost 12 visit this URL: http://forum.section31rp.co.uk/viewforum.php?f=298

Section 31 of course has just undergone a theme change thanks to Richard Evans of S31 and Honor of Blue Planet



Battlestar Valfreyja

[i]Welcome to The Battlestar Valfreyja, BS-03. Have you got what it takes
to defend your 12 colonies against the Cylon threat. if you have. Enlist
aboard Virgon's own. See you at boot camp Nugget!.

Battlestar Valfreyja is currently gathering feedback from its members in an attempt to improve the roleplay experience, so log in to BSV to throw in your two cents!

Flash Trek: The Unofficial Forum

FT:TUF is a general site for sci-fi fans and a home away from home for many. Starting out as a basis for the Broken Mirror 3 flash game, FT:TUF has since expanded to become much more than just a sci-fi forum!

Flash Trek: The Unofficial Forum is currently undergoing a very large theme overhaul, including changing the engine from PHBB3 to Invision. This skin will take some time to be complete but there looks to be a lot to change and should hopefully result in a very cool theme.
FT:TUF has tried to start an RP called “Divide and Conquer,” however it appears is if it may be cancelled before it even begins due to lacking of activity in it. You can post any comments or suggestions in the discussions thread.

Blue Planet General Update
Not too much has changed for this week regarding Blue Planet, however the main update is that character registration will no longer be done through forms, but through forums in each RPW. RPLs and members are responsible for transferring their bios over if they haven’t done so yet.

Creative Suite
This week we’d like to show you some pictures taken be a couple of members. As always, it’s quite interesting to see where are members come from as in a way, it’s a small piece of the world and a cool way to see different nationalities come together!

The Water Cooler
The Book of Questions

The Book of Questions is a small book that has questions in it. It is a book designed to ask questions for people to learn about themselves and others. It is entertaining and fun and also brought about some debates and arguments regarding social life and society. So we’re going to throw one question up a week and let us have a little fun with it.
If you could spend one year in perfect happiness but afterward would remember nothing of the experience would you do so? If not, why not?

Join in the debate over at the Cooler today!

The pillars of the universe are about to fall and the only thing that
stands in the way of space being destroyed, is the crew of the
Darkwing...

dying sun begins destroying the solar system. Take your place amongst

‘humanity’ keeps you safe with Wolves as your only saviors...

rule, and try to make a life for yourself. That is, of course, if you
manage to survive disease and rogue Warriors.


Illusions of Fantasy
It is an ordinary morning. You wake up, have your toast and juice and

It is an
ordinary morning. You wake up, have your toast and juice and head out
for a day at the office. Nothing out of the ordinary happens, until you
are hit by a car on your way to work.
Two realities. Two lives. One person.


The Christian Crusade
Join Jake McCormick and the Crusade, Christians against the evils of
this Universe. Demonic forces are attacking all around - it is the

you're a Jedi in hiding. Maybe you're a simple farmer, who decided to
join the fight. Maybe you're a diplomat, working the Rebellion
underground. You get to choose!


Star Wars Rebellion is now open for gameplay! If you haven’t registered your character yet, do so to join in the Star Wars universe!
