If you were supposed to get an email from the forum but didn't (e.g. to verify your account for registration), email Wes at stararmy@gmail.com or talk to me on Discord for help. Sometimes the server hits our limit of emails we can send per hour.
I'd go with a generic ship page, list the basic things in the ship specs, and create your captain under the character thing. The captains are still considered player characters.
We now have an OOC Hangout, with first episode under draft. Please get me your Captain sheets ASAP, and see if I screwed you Ships up on the plot page.
