America has won the Gameplay Award in the Tournament of Sims!
I apologize for my absence. Running for judge has been time consuming. Also, with my wife having had breast cancer surgery, I was on triple duty between playing lawyer, taking care of family, and running for judge. In the interim, I was hoping for a set of posts to start, but they had not. So, in the next few days I'm going to set a post up assuming part of the plot occurred and getting things moving again.
Let's make America even greater!

General News - Status Update - September, 2020 Edition
The following is a news item from Captain Kelly Jean O'Connor.
Normally, I send these status updates out on the first of the month (give or take a few days) to give an overview of everything that happened in the month before and of what our goals are for the upcoming month.
Crew
In August, we gained two crewmembers, boosting our numbers from 5 to 7.
Our new crewmembers are:
Chief Medical Officer, Lieutenant Dacia Stallworth and
Chief Engineering Officer, Lieutenant Glenn Radars

We're going to continue improving upon the site to make it attractive and informative for all. If there's something that you want to see that we don't have, please let us know!
Sim
We had 9 posts in August. Great job, people! However, we have not had a new post since August 23, 2020, so we can do better. Let me know how I can help!
Mission Recap
Having set off with a new crew, the often cantankerous Captain Kelly Jean O'Connor is disturbed to be sent out on yet a new diplomatic mission. They are investigating a world called Aenerth for its admission into the Federation. On their way, they have found a crippled Aenerthan ship which requested assistance and seems confounded by America's willingness to help at no cost.
America has arrived at Aenerth and attended a brunch with the Aenerthan officials. After the brunch, the away team was split into groups of two. The away teams discovered that agriculture was continually bent on improving crops by genetic splitting. Industry had no safeguards for workers and Brian and Cara watched someone lose their arm and beg to stay on the job. The Chief Medical Officer and XO went to view the university and medical facilities. During a surgery, the student surgeon was failing and nobody assisted. The CMO did and saved the patient. It was explained that doctors that committed malpractice were let to die along with the patient. Because the CMO assisted, she accidentally ended up engaged to the student.
On the ship, T'Pruk, Cara, and Pendragon were exploring the news outlets and discovered that the planet was highly laissez faire and that the only area that got free anything were military members. Government officials had the best products, as well. Everyone else was left to their own devices. T'Pruk revealed to Pendragon that she is on the verge of pon farr and implied that she would prefer to mate with him as a logical choice.
While that mission is finishing, America has gone back and picked up new crew on two weeks of shore leave. O'Connor and the XO have decided that they highly dislike their new Chief Engineering Officer, who is excessively lazy.
Objectives
Finish gathering information and file report with Federation regarding Aenerth's admission on Mission 7. Meet with your fellow personnel on shore leave on Mission 8 before flying off.
Player of the Month
Our player of the month this month is our new Chief Medical Officer, Dacia Stallworth who has had 4 posts this month, all torturing various crewmembers with physicals (except the one with the Captain). The detail which Darrell remembered some of the classic TOS medical equipment added a great deal of color to our sim!
Ideas
If anyone has any ideas for character development or even some subplots, share them with us. I know that my door, as well as my XO’s are always open. Any questions, comments, or issues, please don’t hesitate to contact the Command team. We are here for you!

The following is a news item from Captain Kelly Jean O'Connor.
It has been nearly nine months since I last sent one of these out. I think that I should get back in the habit of doing it. Normally, I send these out on the first of the month (give or take a few days) to give an overview of everything that happened in the month before and of what our goals are for the upcoming month.
Crew
In July, we had 5 crew members.

We had 4 posts in July with 5 people. We can do better. However, it appears that activity, in general, is picking up, especially with two new players arriving in August.

We doubled our posts from one to two this month. We can do better. However, it appears that activity, in general, is picking up. I know that both me and the XO have ideas and there are posts in the hopper, so indications are that things are picking up.
