It is almost time for the TW2002 Awards for the year of 2002.  Cherokee will be hosting them this year so if you do not have an account  at https://tavern.homeip.net/TWGS/ (The Lost Traders Tavern) then you need to do so.  Nominations start April 11th and April 18th the votes start being taken.  Sorry to post this to everyone but I feel it is important to our community.

Silver Dragon posted some USO info in the forum:
“I must say its been a pretty good game so far, we are a few weeks into the game and still have several corps alive and well. Star Endeavors have built themselves a nice little lead. Scoring 22 kills giving them 220 points, they have also invaded 13 lvl 2 and above planets which should pay out some nice dividends at the end of the game providing they can hold them.  “ More..
