Some people have been receptive to the talk about this sim in the
past, so I thought I would share the most recent advertisement. We
have been challenged to gain about 15 members in 6 months. I want to
prove that Firefly is a totally viable simming choice, and would love
to surpass that challenge. If anyone is interested in playing -
either on a full-time or part-time basis, please check it out and
consider getting involved. :) For those that have never done it, it
really is quite a bit of fun!!

Firefly: Objects In Space is proud to announce the launch of a brand
new, re-designed website, as well as a new space station in the
Firefly 'verse!
The new website (http://www.fireflysim.com) was a collaborative effort
between the hosts, FSF Griffen (fsfgriffen@sb254.com) & FSF Hawg
(fsfhawg@sb254.com). Griffen created a new look that re-energizes the
website, while Hawg took that look and fleshed out the site, keeping
the look consistent throughout all the pages. The new site gives the
sim - one of the only Firefly sims in existence - a professional look
as well as a portal for Firefly/Serenity information.
Also launching is space station Tiryns, an Alliance run space station
on the rim. But unlike the ships Serendipity & Bonifate, this time it
is under Alliance control. Want to play an Alliance officer? How about
a resistance fighter organizing under their noses? Or maybe a merchant
trying to get by and feed his/her family? There is *NO* requirement to
join the sim to post on the Tiryns station, and there are *NO* weekly
or monthly posting requirements to play. Simply head to the message
boards (http://www.fireflysim.com/forums.html) and jump on in!
More about Tiryns:
Space station Tiryns is about taking sides and making choices. You
make your choices and deal with the consequences. You have to be
careful about what doors you close, and which one you open.
It is about taking something you believe in and working to make that
happen.
It is about pain and suffering, but it is also about joy and happiness.
It is about fear and loss, but it is also about hope.
It is about dreams being destroyed...and it is about dreams being born.
It is about respect and forgiveness, and it is about never being able
to forgive.
The characters are flawed and because of that, they are believable.
There are tensions, things happen, characters change.
Station Tiryns; the newly commissioned station on the Rim who's seen
better days. Now, corruption's set in and its up to the new commander
to set things right. Civilians, Merchants, Alliance; All living
together. All trying to make a place for themselves. All hoping to
call Tiryns, home. There are incompetents and thugs, unable to
appreciate the future of the Rim, bent on making their mark. Likewise,
there are idealists, the ambassadors who have the needs of the many
foremost in their minds. No matter what they are, each have their own
visions of what the future holds.
It's the truth. Sometimes, those visions tend to clash. But that's the
beauty of the Rim.
