Stars: Pretty much agree with what everyone is saying. A big star goes out to the group dynamics outside the game, which is always a good metric for longevity. In-game, stars go out to:

* Qralloq for his outside-the-box thinking of how to use Gino's truck. Traveller is often about using creativity to accumulate better odds on a skill check, in an OSR kind of way, and I love seeing what creative ideas people come up with to solve problems. Also, love how you're portraying Seally being stuck up enough that her royal heritage shows, but without being unlikable. Tough balance to strike, but you did it.

* Nezz for portraying Fallon's investigative journalism instincts - it's like she's hard-wired to get to the bottom of things, which is such a useful trait for a character to drive stories forward. There wasn't too much for her to chew on in this adventure, but she'll find plenty of corruption and injustice out there. Also, I respect that you wanted the failure during the evacuation scene just stand for itself.

* KCC for moving the story forward when things were getting bogged down in mechanics. Plus, you're always ready with a fun gif and an encouraging word in the discord. Like Qralloq pointed out, you've created opportunities in the story to make Alerio really stand apart from the crowd.

* Windyridge for Zuni being the life of the party. Whether he's waggling his eyebrows or making innuendos at the beach, it's a delight to read. And when you switch to serious mode, it is entirely believable. Great portrayal of a Xander-esque character.

I'm surprised that the art actually made a difference. I wasn't sure if it was value added, but I guess a picture is worth a thousand words. Would love to learn how to make non-humans better, like Vargr. It would be sweet to get it to draw Wayward Wind in new poses.

Glad people liked the setting. I poured my small-town Canada experiences into Walston. Like, every town has their equivalent of the Museum of Sand, it seems. And Gino was based on a real person I know from Northern BC!

Wishes: My wish is to launch into interstellar sandbox play. Sandbox is always tricky, but especially PbP. Yet, I think it will be a lot of fun, and excitedly jump in with both feet. Walston is set up to be your Jaynestown, a safe harbour to return to when you need it, and the Bowman Arm (and beyond) is all around you to explore and get into trouble. Larger events are queued up, like the Wayward Wind's inaccessible memory banks, that might provide solid A and B plots, but you can also just go ignore all that and go asteroid mining, or try to install Zuzu as head of government on some primitive rock in the boonies of space.

For the immediate future, I think you might try your hand at hauling freight and passengers to raise funds for ship repairs / upgrades as you travel from system to system, and see what freelance work comes up along the way that interest you. But we'll see what ideas your downtime posts inspire, and we'll go from there.

You do have a very nice combat rifle.
