Huh, odd. I must have misinterpreted and misremembered some elements of what he had written. That's a real shame, it was going very well. Thank you for the information.

Again, I apologize for the gaffe; it will not happen again. I have been away for several years, and will reread the rules.

Sso of course I forget to ask myquestion HERE where you said it should go. ><

Ahem. So. I remember that Stavro finished Starcrossed, but for some reason I cannot find the last chapters here. Did I miss something in the past few years? Or is there a database glitch or something like that?

apologze, I hadn't realized that the other thread was offlimits. I'll do better in the future in being more thorough in what to post to which thread.

Wow... haven't been here in a goodly while. I wonder who's still here that I remember? Anyway, I vaguely remember Starcrossed, Stravo's epic fanfic, finishing at some point, but the Cleaned topic for it ends at the battle of Andor. Does anyone know what happened and where it can be found, and/or wha...

Obligatory StarWarZ site reference: http://www.starwarz.com/starkiller/ The Jedi Bendu Script Site. Interesting stuff there. It was really only in the EU that the Sith were defined to be an opposint Force tradition to the Jedi. I don't think it's even been discussed in the official books or the movi...

There's a sly little comment by Kirk about all the links people have made between him and Spock (i.e. the K/S 'slash' stories) which basically says, "I neither confirm nor deny, but even if I did it's my business, friend *wink*.'

How odd, I'd thought ADF was dead. I'm glad to see he's not.

At the risk of opening myself up to a flame, please correct me if I'm wrong, but if that is an airless moon, then it's possible it only LOOKS small. many of the features on the lunar surface appeared exaggerated or minimalized when photographed; there's nothing to measure it by. Though I will readil...

Well, why not something with an SW flavor? This was written by an antecedent of the Sith tradition in the SW game I'm running, some 5000 years after the founding of the Republic, right before he and his Brotherhood fled accross the galaxy. ===== CORUSCANT PRAYER Ku Radama Awoken in shadows The dawn-...

The lightsabre would have to be an incredibly reliable item, then, if a Jedi would trust it more than a blaster. (For all we know, of course, they are.)

Because I didn't think that the SW.com databank would mention anything about the TU. Phooey! Thanks for the link. =)

I don't peruse the mothersite all that much unless I'm looking for schematics, but the Starfleet Museum site is a joy to behold. I read it and all I can do is sigh and think that THIS is how Enterprise should have been. Oh, well. I'm glad he's continuing it in spite of the existence of Enterprise.

Depends on what you call 'real.' For gritty, hard-hitting scenes that evoke images of 'Midway' and 'The Sands of Iwo Jima' and 'Victory at Sea' and other early-color movies depicting WW2, then, oh me oh my yes, SVC would trounce B&B seven ways to sunday. If you want something dramatic and pulse-...

I was mostly wondering just what role these guys played in the Republic. :) I mean, okay... I can understand the Trade Federation. I can understand the Minding Guild. I can even understand the Banking Clans (just not their name.) But what in the world is the 'Techno Union?' Besides 'bizarre.' :wink:

It's possible that the Mining Guild (as well as the Banking Clans and the Techno Union (WhereTF did this things COME from?!) is eventually folded into the Corporate Sector Authority, depending upon the canonicity of the CSA, of course.

Malcom McDowell as Tarkin.

"Now then, my deah young Princess Leia. If my droogy-droog stormtroopers haven't been able to drag the information out of you, perhaps it's time to do some of the ol' ultra-violence 'pon your snarking little world of... Alderaan."

A friend of mine might be intrigued by this idea. She has a fairly low opinion of George Lucas as it is, but here goes. GL might have put that little scene to 'legitimize' Anakin's and Padme's relationship -- after all, it's unNarrowMindedFundamentalist to have a child out of wedlock! So Anakin and ...

Honestly, I'd say Other (Heal Other.) Telekinesis is a way cool power, but I know I don't have the ethical standards and sheer Zen-like control and serenity of Qui-Gon to use the power properly -- quintuply so for 'mind trick!' So I'd remove any chance of gross abuse of power by myself, by going for...

The q-torps were fired from a launcher beneath the saucer portion. The photorps were fired from two locations: one just above the hangar bay, and one at the BOTTOM of the engineering hull, and both emplacements appeared to be double launchers -- possibly triple, since the salvos fired to the stern e...

No, Space Battleship Yamato was not in the same universe as Space Pirate Capt. Harlock/Galaxy Express 999 (or to go by the title song, "Galaxy Express Three-Nine") though they were created by the same artist, Leiji Matsumoto. There's evidence of questionable canonicity that they're in the...

I liked how the Feds broke out the phaser rifles when battlestations was called. That made sense to me, in a universe with transporters. Pity we didn't see any shots of crewers getting into hazard suits. That'd have been really appropriate. Pity that won't happen, but, still...=)

The fun thing about SFB, is that if something can conceivably be used as a weapon, it CAN be. =) "Captain, I'm reading transporter activity from the unknown ship, but our shields are still up." "That's odd. Number One, what --" *FOOOM!* "What the HELL was that?!" "...

The quark plasma mentioned here, properly 'quark-gluon plasma' or as Stephen Baxter coined the term, 'quagma,' has been created now, by using a supercollider accelerating iron isotopes at high-fractional-c velocities and impacting them against gold targets. The quagma lasts for microseconds but it i...

*watches Kung Fu Kenobi's Big Adventure*

I think I sprained my brain or something watching that....

You're right, it's pretty funny stuff. I remember watching Quentin Tarantino's Star Wars. =)

IIRC, Freedon Nadd was Just Another Jedi who wanted power sooner than his master would grant him, and he sought forbidden darkside knowledge. I admit I found something vaguely dissatisfying about the Dark Horse comics origins of the Sith, though Lucas's origins are just as dissatisfying. Ah, well. A...

Guh, hit 'enter' too soon! Thanks for the link!!
