This'll need some major cleanup, but I wanted to make a list of the clever email notification texts I've been getting. Sorry it's a little messy at the moment. --Calvin November t/c on 19:15, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Location Info[]

  • Just thought I'd tell you, I've landed on <<skyland>>
  • Reporting from <<skyland>>!
  • <<character name>> has landed on <<skyland>>! And boy are my arms tired.
  • <<character name>> reporting in. I just finished up my list of tasks and am currently sitting pretty on <<skyland>>
  • Destination reached! <<character name>> here, specifically on <<skyland>>, looking for something to do.
  • This is <<character name>>. Just touched down on <<skyland>>, awaiting further orders.
  • <<character name>> here. Phew, caught a nasty tail wind coming in, but everything's a-ok. <<skyland>> is looking fine, but I'm raring to get airborne again!

Comments on Skyland[]

  • <<Faction name>> is all crowing about one of their members named <<other character's name>> who the people here seem to favor most highly
  • The mechanic let me in to the back room to show me a version of the regular <<plane name>> for sale here, but painted bright orange...I wasn't too keen.
  • The mechanic offered to let me try a <<upgrade>>, I declined for now.
  • Give it to me straight, Boss. Do I need a breathmint? I ran into <<other character's name>> at the hangar, but they just ran in the other direction!
  • A group from the <<Faction name>> were doing a survey of the land here. Apparently a new source of minerals has been found in the southern tip of the skyland. How they plan to dig for it, I have no idea.
  • Brrr...it's pretty cold up here. I'm going to have to buy some warm weather gear.
  • I was approached by someone and asked if I was, 'looking for trouble.' When I bristled, they explained they were a navigator and could help me find it if I wanted to.
  • A group of diplomats came to look at the plane as I brought it in. They all clapped as I came out. Bunch of weirdos.
  • Took a look at <<other character's name>>'s plane, the '<<other character's plane name>>'. Believe you me, it doesn't compare to ours. Ours has HEART.
  • Nothing against this place, but they seem to really like <<Faction name>>, but there's no accounting for taste, eh?
  • I kicked the tires of a <<plane>> I saw at the hangar. Nice looking plane.
  • Ooh, ooh, ooh, I saw the shiniest <<upgrade>> for sale that I bet would look great next to the ficus. What? You didn't know I got a ficus? It gets lonely on flights.
  • Spent some time window shopping. Apparently some scientists are coming up with an 'Auto-Mechanic' that will let you try different upgrades (like <<upgrade>> on your ship to see what it's like
  • Apparently some skyrate named <<other character's name>> has been doing a lot for the people here. I wonder if I could get that kind of famous...
  • Hope you don't mind, I spent a little cash in the tavern. Met a nice <<crew type>> named <<crew member name>>. Promptly lost my shirt to them in a game of poker.
  • A navigator named <<crew member name>> bought me a drink in the tavern and told me about news around Skytopia. Honestly? I think they're just really bored and wanting to get off this Skyland.
  • The ship could use a <<upgrade>> dontcha think? They've got some in town!
  • While by the hangar, I took a peek at the planes. They've got a pretty nice looking<<plane>> for sale, although I'm sure the real thing is nothing like the model. That's the last time I leave the shop without a warranty, believe you me.
  • I dared <<other character's name>> of <<Faction name>> to a spitting competition off the Skyland ledge. They apparently had 'more important things to do.'
  • Regrettably, the people here seem to favor the <<Faction name>>
  • The western ridge here is mostly peaceful settlements that try to welcome anyone who comes by in.
  • The eastern ridge here is mostly of guard towers built to defend the monument from pirate attacks.
  • While walking around, I heard these folks talking about some Skyrate named <<other character's name>> of <<Faction name>>. Apparently they're the person to know around here.
  • While passing by the hangar, I saw a skyrate installing a new Explosive Roundson their ship.
  • <<other character's name>> is the talk of the town. A lot of the people asked me if I had met them, and then were disappointed when I said I hadn't
  • <<other character's name>> was hanging around the trading post. I tried to sneak a look at their ledger but got caught in the act. Phooey.
  • When I got here, I saw a group of people watching me in the distance. When I got out of my craft they had vanished...
  • <<Faction name>> has set up a pretty comfortable base of operations here...
  • Conditions here aren't nearly as nice as they could be under the banner of the <<character's[verify me] Faction name>>
  • A trader named <<crew member name>> told me that our trade profits could increase by a bunch if we just took them aboard.

Closing Remarks[]

  • I'm going to take a brief break to fish.
  • Off to water the ship's ficus.
  • I saw some weird lights on the ocean surface. I think I'm going to take a look.
  • I think I'm going to do some fishing now...
  • You want me to do more work? Oh what's that? *krshsdlk*, you're breaking up boss! *kshrjkcd*, I'm going to head out *kzzzsttt* to the tavern for now!
  • Also, tried to see how many times I could loop the plane before I became sick. <<number>>.
  • Enough with this, I'm headed back to the tavern!
  • I'm going to take a nap now until you get back, k?
