Thanks for the great comments, everyone!

I must pass on these amazing thanks to all of the contributors to this edition of the times: Voleron, AstroRobLA, Brandon, MrIzzy, DoctorDisaster, SiranNataan, Chipz416, and backyardserenade. Thank you guys so much - we couldn't make a magazine without you!

bug us KDF types to give you more content on what's happening on the cooler side of STO!


I would love to have more KDF content, and have been trying to find people willing to contribute material. If you can help me get in touch with willing contributors, or can contribute some material yourself, I'll love you forever! :cheer:

I really want to get some GW2 articles added. I wish someone with some writing skills would contribute... I think I lack in writing skills, but I may have to step up eventually. Fractal experiences, new content reception, member interviews... I'll have to ask some fellow GW2 players for some help maybe


Same here, Elquin. If you can help me find people willing and able to contribute material I will love you forever, too! :P

If you don't feel able to write anything yourself, there are other ways you can contribute. The biggest thing we need is ideas, and we also need a big collection of screenshots from the game that we can use to illustrate articles. I don't play the game, so providing me with content ideas and screenshots would be a tremendous help. And spreading the word to help me find writers would be awesome!

Thanks again :)

Re: Guild Wars 2 and SweetFX

December 09 2012
I kid you not... I just did a fresh install of windows 8 and loaded up Guild Wars 2... I was like... "What is wrong with my graphics... they must be on low." I made sure everything was set at max and it still looked off. Then I remembered... Sweetfx!!! It really does make a world of a difference! I didn't know how much until now lol. Anyone who tries it... let me know what you think!

Re: HALLOWEEN FLEET EVENT!

December 09 2012
As Previously Announced!

This issue of the Stonewall Times features remastered, high-definition screenshots, taken from the runs of eight randomly selected teams, who participated in the Halloween event! The screenshots are found on page 17 of the Stonewall Times. Check to see if your team was featured!

REMEMBER: You can click on each image to enlarge it to a full-desktop sized shot! The quality of these shots is amazing, as they capture the thrill and excitement of the event! The size of the screenshots is suitable for any single monitor desktop size, and would make a terrific desktop wallpaper!

This edition of the Stonewall Times can be found here:

Thank you for the publication, Ali. Great work!

Headset Recommendation

December 09 2012
So... I'm usually not big into headset gaming, but I think I'm going to give it a try. I'm on a bit of a budget and couldn't see myself spending anything over $50. Can anyone help me in the right direction?

Thanks guys! ;)

My God, I am always impressed by our fleet members' talents, but the Times continues to raise the bar. Huge congrats to Alimac and everyone involved, a great read and a visual treat.

Oh, and now knowing that Voleron is a police officer will bring a whole new level of pleasure to watching him explode. :-P

P.S. Only request, bug us KDF types to give you more content on what's happening on the cooler side of STO! ;-)

Yet another masterpiece! What an amazing publication :D

Terrific work, Ali... I enjoy reading these so much! Now begins the wait for the next one... Maybe Stonewall can employ you full time so we can get weekly releases? We'll pay you with a combination of dilithium and energy credits!

Thanks to Ali and all of the contributors! :D

Name: Mindor Kal
Race: 3/4 Betazoid, 1/4 Human
Rank: Commander
Specialization: Biochemistry, Medical Devices

Addtional Details: A graduate of Starfleet Medical's research track, Mindor Kal spent his first years in Starfleet working in planetside research laboratories as opposed to serving as a doctor on a starship. However, emergency deployment to assist with a mercy mission on a far flung colony gave him a taste for the unknown of the final frontier. Since then, Mindor has made a name for himself as a 'researcher on the frontier', taking rotating assignments through Starfleet's ships to conduct research and medical engineering projects that are more applicable to the needs of Starfleet's mission of exploration and defense.

I’m sad to say that we still haven’t had any contributions related to SW: TOR, GW2 or The Secret World. We need Stonewallers to contribute articles, features and reviews for these games. We can only include content if you guys give it to us – so please email times@stonewallgaming.net to let us know what you can do!

Happy holidays, and I hope you enjoy this new edition of the Times!

See you in 2013.

Re: Getting to know you.

Hi, everyone! I'm Eric. I'm 29 and live in the San Francisco Bay Area (and grew up here, too).

I'm actually not a new member; I joined Stonewall back during the launch of STO. About a year ago I ended up taking a break from the game, partly because my life got busy, but also partly just because I felt I'd done all I could in the game. However, I recently got an itch to come back. I'm a huge Trekkie, always have been, and the recent Star Trek 2 trailer sealed the deal.

I'm updating my game as I write this, so here here some tidbits about me:

-- I'm a scientist, first and foremost. I recently got my doctorate and am now conducting research into biomedical optics for my postdoc.

-- My hobbies (in addition to gaming and Star Trek) include martial arts and fitness, singing, and writing.

-- With regard to writing, I've actually written a few STO/Stonewall fiction pieces. In addition to the Stonewall stories (which I'm flattered and honored to see are still stickied!), I also wrote a series of stories about my main ship, the USS Pandora.

-- In addition to Star Trek, I'm also a massive Whovian. I can't wait for the Christmas special and the return of Oswin!

And I see Starbases are finally in the game! Good lord, I trust Stonewall's is the most fabulous of them all?
