Hello subscriber to the sc2-announce mailing list! Yeah, that's you, though you may have forgotten all about it. After all, it has been 9 years since we last used it. Well, we did say it was a low traffic list. So, let's catch you up, while skipping through the boring parts. The most exciting development since we last spoke, is that the creators of the original Star Control II - The Ur-Quan Masters, have started a new company, Pistol Shrimp, and that they are developing a sequel! That calls for a party! And it so happens that there actually is a party, hosted by the Pistol Shrimp team on Twitch. The party celebrates the 30th anniversary of Star Control II - the Ur-Quan Masters, because, as you might have guessed, it has been 30 years since Star Control II - the Ur-Quan Masters was released. So when is this party? Just a moment, let me check... it's the 30th of November! Wait... That's tomorrow! I guess that leaves very little time to look forward to it. Better hurry. So, the details: * The celebration will be on the 30th of November, at 1pm PST / 4 pm EST / 21:00 UTC. * The location will be Twitch, at https://twitch.tv/x33n/ (hosted by X33N). * I think it's white tie. Or maybe it was fancy dress. Or fancy tie. Oh well. Hope to see you there! The Ur-Quan Masters Open Source core team.
