For a member of the crew to be considered part of the team, they have to change their avatar on the forums and check in to crew's official thread in this forum with a funny quote, quip, or greeting. (i.e.- "Trick or treat!"). Please keep any other extraneous posts out of this thread as it will be used to count the ship's participants.
