Howdy!
A year has passed since the founding of our small (yet in ways – mighty) organization.
A year of fun and memorable encounters with the people of DU community.
First of all, I want to thank those who supported us in our clumsy early steps – rescued us when we were stranded, helped with parts and advices.
Your help was not in vain! Being too lazy for creating our own empires, we ended up… well, returning the same good back into the Universe!
The mission statement of Triumvirate is simple: "Have fun and help others, when you can".
In my mind, this goal has already been achieved – we trained some newbies to be relatively decent astronauts (most of them survived are now conquering the stars somewhere), generated a healthy mix of enjoyable failures and successes and now looking into the wider roads of Beta to come.
This is an open invitation for everyone to visit the campfire of our Discord. We're a colorful bunch of international space adventurers (with pinch of special humor) ready to welcome newcomers for stories and doing some galaxy-saving quests in non-optimized, but memorable party. We have no cookies, but will gladly treat you with big bowl of baked beans.

See you on the flipside

Introduction

The primary mindset behind our conception is to promote and establish strong bonds through unity and order.
Triumvirate functions like a Brotherhood.
We teach and learn to cooperate in a Tri-force fashion instead of isolated singular units.
 
 
Symbolism
The three colored triangles stand for individual Faction members and the triarchy among our ranks. Their position inside the circle is a reflection of the teamwork required, to support each other. The circle represents the Faction's Unity as a whole. Everyone in line within will find support and sanctuary. Last but not least, the central white triangle reflects the fruits of everyone's labor through unity and cooperation.  
Recruitment
We are looking for people that strive for teamwork and dedication. If you want to be a part of your own small crew then Triumvirate is the right place for you. Here, all new recruits are divided and organized into three manned squads in relation to their aspirations.
Form an application through the Community Portal or join our Discord Server and pm @Armedwithwings directly.
 
 
Choose your Specialization
 
All work within Triumvirate is divided into three specializations.
Members are encouraged to dedicate themselves to work that's related exclusively on their respected profession.
 
 
 Architecture Designer
Builders and Architects of all kinds. Members part of this profession specialize in everything construct related.
From structure designs to room decoration they are responsible for providing the Faction's living and working facilities.
 
Excavation Specialist
People in charge of Ore Prospecting and Resource mining are part of the Excavators.
Through their hard work we create the essentials to operate our Faction. They are the heart and lungs of Triumvirate as without them nothing would be possible.
 
Ship Engineer
Created for ship designers and haulers alike.
The Mechanized Division is in charge of maintaining crafts and run resupply missions. Constantly on the move, there is always something to be done.
 
 
Faction Structure
 
First Echelon - Triumvirate Company
Squad Members - Supervisors
──────────────────
Second Echelon - Triumvirate Officer Party
Commanding Officers - Administrators
──────────────────
Third Echelon - Triumvirate Central Command
Chiefs of Staff - Legionnaires
──────────────────
Senate - Triumvirate High Command
Legates - Triumvirs
──────────────────

 
Tri-Squad Members
Tri-squads are tasked to cooperate united at all times towards a single goal. Triumvirate Brotherhood detachments share the same workspace,living quarters and remain unchangable for their remaining enlistment period. They are charged one vessel and perform duties as a single entity, never divided. Each Tri-squad will be assigned an elected Supervisor. Among other duties, they will be tasked of keeping their squad present at all times  and conveying orders from their superiors.
───────────────────
Commanding Officers
A Commanding Officer will be overseeing one Tri-squad and assign their daily work schedule determined, by either through "job boards"or Administrational orders. The job of a Commanding Officer is to keep a detailed log of his squad's completed assignments and report them to the "Administrator".
─────────────────────────
Administrators
Administrators are individuals in charge of the Faction's needs by coordinating the Brotherhood's workforce/military. Their tasks among others include holding responsibility for two Commanding Officers,regularly updating their designated Platoon's job board and formulating their activity reports. They receive their orders from either the Chiefs of Staff or the Legionnaires.
───────────────────────────────────────────────
Chiefs of Staff
Command of each legion lies in the hands of two Chiefs of Staff along with their Legionnaire. Being the cream of the crop of Triumvirate,these highly skilled individuals hold tremendous authority and equal responsibility. Through their Ranks, a Legionnaire is elected in power though the legion's favor.
────────────────────────────────────────────────
Legates
Generals/Senate along with the Faction Leader are the ones who make the plans to shape the Brotherhood's future. Behind any major decision,a council is organized to determine the best course of action. Each General/Senate party will be held responsible for a Major Faction Asset.
────────────────────────────────────
Triumvirs
The central leadership role of Triumvirate is in the hands of the Faction Leader and two prestigious legates called Triumvirs. These influencial parties can be elected in power through the Senate only once every year

Like any good journalist monsieur mouse is speaking in riddles, so allow me to offer some additional context behind his train of thought.
As i walked through the market and the ship shop areas in Beta i figured the importance of a good starter ship and decided to have my own twist in it...   So in collaboration with @vertex and COPYCAT (CC0) i present to you Project egg :         Project EGG is an acronym which stands for "Economic Galactic Getaway" It's a tiny vessel designed to be both atmospheric and space capable and above everything, economic! Below you can find an additional list of features and specifications :   BUILDING REQUIREMENTS   PASSENGER CAPACITY  
  STORAGE  
  PERFORMANCE Our organization deeply cares for new players and their needs. As such i have decided to make the blueprint publicly accessible and share it with the community. Come visit us at the TRI Assembly center located in Sanctuary and get your own copy FREE! Our coordinates are ::pos{0,26,41.5035,4.5834,4.0546} , I'll leave a full container open for anyone interested. I will also commit in supplying every new Triumvirate member an EGG as their first ship!   See you on the flipside

Well NQ, to be honest, yes these steps you made are totally necessary, BUT the DLLs gave us features you still didn't gave us and that are absolutely required.
 
These are for example:
- external requests for receiving and sending data to our own apis (VERY IMPORTANT)
- a json encoding/deconding that is not stupidly slow
- communication between programming boards
- and more
 
The coder community in this game is big and needs more specialized features to make this game as great as it deserves to be. But if you restrict everything and give us nothing back, I don't know how long coders will stick to the game.
 
I am actually quiet disappointed how coders get ignored and handled like 2nd class people.

Hi guys, 
 
It's time once again for NovaWrimo! If you don't remember what it is or you're new around here, let’s catch you up.
 
What is NovaWrimo?
NovaWrimo is a contest inspired by "Nanowrimo" (National Novel Writing Month) that happens during the month of November (from November, 1st to November, 30th). The goal of NanoWrimo is to write a 50,000-word novel in 30 days. If you're curious, here's the official Nanowrimo website: http://nanowrimo.org/.
 
NovaWrimo is slightly different: 
 
It's not strictly tied to the month of November (meaning we might hold similar contests several times a year). To be accessible to a broader range of participants, the minimum word count is only 5,000 words instead of 50,000. Ideally, entries would have a word count between 5,000 and 7,500 words. Depending on the number of entries, it can take a lot of time to review everything. Of course, if you're really inspired and the result very good, there's no hard limit. Who are we to tell Shakespeare when to stop?  
The rules:
The 2017 NovaWrimo contest starts today, Thursday, November 30th, 2017 at 9:30 PM PST.  It will end on Sunday, January 7th at 11:30 PM PST. The story should be compatible with what is known of the Dual Universe backstory so far.   
For reference:
The Official Dual Universe Lore Bible The short story written by Alain Damasio The mods of the novel by Alain Damasio mentioned in the beginning of this post, some info here and here too The Backstory Page of the official website   Some more recent information  
If you spot an inconsistency between the different sources, the Official Lore Bible should be considered authoritative.
 
The story must happen between 2049 and 2450. (Between the creation of the United Earth Federation (UEF), the transnational institution in charge of coordinating humanity’s efforts and response to the Star Kiss of Death (SKiD) and the time when the Arkship technology is finally mastered). No alien creatures should be involved. Physical violence should be limited (No gore or similar things).  Verbal violence and cursing is tolerated but should be limited and not gratuitous. Explicit sexual content isn't allowed. Hate speech toward specific people, ethnic groups, or religions isn't allowed. You must submit your text in the form of a PDF file and you must attach it to a dedicated topic (with the tag [NovaWrimo2017] in the title) you created in the "Novaquark Archives" forum section. The PDF file must not exceed 500 kb in size. You also must send your file in Word or .txt format to both Nyzaltar and Nomad to be eligible. You can do so by private message on the forum. By submitting a fan fiction with the tag [NovaWrimo2017] in the topic title, the poster will explicitly cede author rights to Novaquark. While these texts won't be sold in any form, they might be used (fully or partially) as promotional materials or in marketing campaigns for the game Dual Universe. For more information, please read our "Terms of Use" and our EULA. You also must accept and you must respect the legal conditions bound to your Dual Universe account (the aforementioned game's EULA, but also the Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, and NDA if relevant). Your submission must be written in English. Your submission must not contain elements or information under NDA you may have found while playing the Pre-Alpha. A non-native English writer can seek help from a native English speaker to polish the text in English. The native English speaker must be aware that it can help only on a volunteer basis: he won't be eligible for any reward. If a non-native English writer seeks help from a native English speaker, he/she must submit the complete text before proofreading. Once his/her text is proofread, he/she will have to keep both pre-proofread and post-proofread versions of the text available on the forum. If several people collaborate on a story, please be aware that only the individual submitting the entry on the forum will be eligible to win any prizes or awards. We will not have group prizes available.  Because the juries are completely different, a participant may win a Novaquark prize and the Community prize. You may submit multiple entries, however, you may only win one Novaquark prize.  If an entry does not meet all of the requirements for eligibility (not reaching the minimum word count, missing the deadline by a few days, etc.), the author won't be considered as eligible for the Novaquark and the Community prizes. However, it may still be considered as a participant to the contest. It will be up to the Novaquark team to decide on a case by case basis.  Late entries will not be eligible for either the Novaquark or Community prizes, but will still be considered as participants.  A gentle reminder more than a rule: please consider the reading comfort of your future readers by formatting your text in a way that makes it easily readable (make sure to put some space between your paragraphs, etc.). 
The rewards:
1st Prize: 
1 Digital Gold Founder Pack

2nd Prize:
1 Digital Silver Pack

3rd Prize:
1 Bronze Pack 
1 Closed Beta Key

Last year winners were: 
• 1st Prize: Aetherios, for his short story "That Bright Dawn"
• 2nd Prize: Temerian, for his short story "Rebirth"
• 3rd Prize: Devious_T, for his short story "Left Behind".

Community Prize:
Unique in-game title: "Famous Writer". Won by Kurock last year.
 
Only one vote is allowed per person, regardless of the number of accounts he or she owns.

How the winners will be selected:
For the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Prizes, the winners will be selected by the Novaquark team. For the Community Prize, the community members will vote for their favorite fan fiction.  
Last year saw very cool entries. If you want to discover them, you can download them all here.
Good luck everyone! 
 
Cheers,
The Novaquark Team.
 

Btw. its a sandbox game so winning is all in your mind and what goals you have set for yourself. There is no true way to win the game. Also in DU (afaik) you train Skills so buying a DUA wont shortcut you those skills. I really hope that NQ do NOT include a skill injector equivalent.
