Orbiter Day

[Brad]

Maybe the much-talked-of OrbiterCon will finally occur.

Ditto! Let's pick a place and time, and we can all get together. (Maybe secretly we could all suprise Martin at work and take him out for an extended lunch.) :lol:

Brighton Beach around noon? :lol:

Hopefully Martin will see this thread soon, maby he will have some ideas.

What about a flash mob at the UCL? :lol: We all dressed in astronaut suits bringing a large birthday cake to Martins office.

Of course, we shouldn't let Martin know about the flashmob, so he has no chance preparing an urgent key note for a conference in November 2010.

I'm going to be co-ordinating a UK meet up sometime in December, there seemed to be quite a bit of interest in that.

Now that is a GREAT IDEA!... everyone wearing an Astronaut suit.

The Orbiter 10 year anniversary will occur in:
[eventTimer]2010-11-27 00:00;%dd% Days %hh% Hours %mm% Minutes %ss% Seconds[/eventTimer]

10 years is a long time in the software world, even more so in the open source world.

DGIV skins obviously but what else

XR2 skins?

 

[Moach]

i think we should build a big baloon and parade it around like it's thanksgiving - then we'd march by the unsuspecting doc's place, pick him up and take him for a "boys night out" :rofl:
:happybday:

Old thread is old. Just saying. :shifty:

The flash mob would be a great idea. All I need is an excuse to go to the UK (if he's even there; his country is listed as Jamaica ATM) and I'm totally there. If anyone asks, it's for science. Why else would I bring an astronaut suit?! :lol:

Oh yeah, we all missed Probe Day on October 4th. Argh.

 

[HAL9001]

maybe we should add that dates to the calendar?

Done and done.

Like the countdown timer, how/where did you do that?
Maybe we should get him a trip to the ISS on a later Expedition. No? Ok.

Edit:

 

[HAL9001]

someone should make a Orbiter-day-celebraton-DGIV skin and upload it here at the Tuesday before Orbiter day.

Or we make a nostalgic remake of the very-first Orbiter 2000.

Hmmm... if someone could run to the parking lot where Martin's car is parked, you should drive it away, and lay a big carton on the place where his car stood. :lol:

Scribbling "Hail Probe" in dry-wipe marker would be slightly nicer and would prevent depriving the good doctor of his mode of transport - he'd have to open up the scenario editor and spawn a deltaglider, and that gets old quickly.

 

[Fabri91]

Wouldn't be it better to put a crudely drawn probe on his car?

 

[HAL9001]

I just work on an animated ´gif animation (something like a smilie) now.

No, put the carton OVER the car. Works for Solid Snake.:lol:

 

[HAL9001]

here it is: a dancing probe

That's a penguin tag. We don't want him disappearing now.
