welcome jkd112. From the statistics I’ve heard, sadgeezer.com gets more hits then lexx.com. I’m not sure about scifi since there statistics aren’t broken up by different show pages. However (as its been expalined to me) many sad hits aren’t for the sadboard. In terms of on topic posts sad sees more traffic then scifi and lexx.com. But lexx.com has just been reborn and its future usage is unknown.

Works for me, general scifi fic forum sound good?
I just accessed the page now. No problems here.
The link: [url=http://www.sadgeezer.com/cgi-bin/news/newspro.cgi]http://www.sadgeezer.com/cgi-bin/news/newspro.cgi[/url]I originally had problems with my password and newspro. You may be experincing the same problem. Sad set it up so its a different password then what I normally use, and it’s very case sensitive! Copy and paste the password (sad should have sent it to you in an email (I got mine right after I became a mod)) to the password prompt box. And make sure your cookies are on so you never have to deal with it again!
Given the definition of palidrone, and your format of day/month – military time – year (in CE)The next one will be Feb 1st 2010. The are a lot of times during the day that this can occur. for instance 01:10, 02:20 … 05:50, 10:01, 11:11 … 15:51, 20:02 … 23:32
But if your reffering to yesterday’s occasion where all three sets are the same number and a palindrone, then this is the last time it wil ever happen. Unless we switch to a different clock or calender.
The last tiem this happened given the orginal condtions (excluding yesterday’s assorted times)was Feb 10th last year, again with a whole assortment of times.
But if your looking for the tripple set thingy again, then the last one was Jan 10th, 1001 at 10:01 am. Ironically most people back then didn’t even know what year it was! Nor did they have accurate time-keeping devices!
Of course this thing can occur again should the day be represented the American way of Month/Day instead Day/Month. Or other calenders could be used, different time keeping systems etc.

I think that the Lexx eats the Netherlans as opposed to blowing them up. It was forshadowed in 4.04 Stan Down that it was going to be eaten anyway.
If Bunny reaches the “peak of sexual extasy” then I’d say that her and Xev were doing more then going at it a “little”. [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
Its funny that you should bring up territorial and rude posters. When I made my first post here at the sadboard, the response to it was quite rude and it almost kept me from making another post. It was another week before I got the chutzbah to post another reply. Whereas my first post on scifi had alot of good friendly replies. My first impression was that sadboard was for hardcore scifi fans and veteran bboards posters, whereas scifi was more friendly to newbies. Well as time progressed I realized this wasn’t nessecarily true. I found that this place is really more friendly in general, and that that first guy was just a dick. Scifi is still a friendly place, but I’ve notied that if you say the wrong thing, people will come out of the woodwork to jump all over you. And I’m not talking about stupid trolls being themselves, but rather normal posters.
Lexx.com has just been reborn. There’s the old veteran posters, and then theres the new guys trying to become alpha male of the new forum. So there’s people who wan to affirm that they’ve been there for awhile and want respect from “their” bored, and then there’s the new guy trying to beat his way to the top. Which is worse, you tell me. I’m certainly not saying that everyone over there is like that, just a small but loud few.
There’s jerks where ever you go in life.
Thanks Doffy. I put in a bid, but I doubt I’ll win it. I know this eccentri person keeps gobbling up all the costumes, Brigadoom especially.

I think Agent Moss is only a small story arc within the series. Much like what Vlad was, or this new mini-arc about Prince,Kai and chess. I beleive the overall story arc has to do with the bad carrots and the destruction of the earth.
I don’t think I’m a mod for these forums, When I looked to see who else got these messages (I got 4, one for each forum) I noticed one was sent to flamegrape, and another to getbackboogie@aol.com, which I’m assuming is Dgree. Frey isn’t there, so my guess is that my eddress accidently got on the list instead of Frey’s.
I liked it up to the last five min. It was such a great parady of American suberbia. This episode annoyed a lot of people for that reason. They think that the Canadians beans are America bashing. I disagree, much like hte Simpsons, Lexx doesn’t descriminate about cultures. It mocks them all. America is sucha a large traget because we are the superpower, and our culture pervades all others. Hell the most recongized symbol in the world in the McDonalds Golden Arches. And what’s more American besides fast food?
Before the 11th that last scene would have been more funny. I almost got a chuckle out of the shear nonsense of it all.But satiracle senseless killing just isn’t as funny anymore.But that scene did have its moments, kai missfiring, the two kids at the end finding on another, and Stans comment about his definatly beign a type 13 planet.
As sgtdraino poitned out, they fianlly got home, and it was screwed up lexx style as always. Plus we goto see if Sad’s predictions of what the characters would be in real life was true or not. Overall I think Prime Ridge made up for 769.quote:

[img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
A few days!? Try almost 2 weeks. And Squish and I started the whole thing with our ideas about the Great War, over 2 months ago. I haven’t been adding too much because of school, which I think may also be a problem for Hypatia. I’d like t see a general scifi fic fourm. Something for original scifi stories and teh adda line stuff that myself, Squish, Hypatia, and even DT, have been doing recently.

LEXX will be next week. The Chronicle which normally got 1.2 on Saturday nights, is being cancelled. Scifi may be dropping shows
which don’t pull a 1.0 or better in their Friday Prime slot. Here’s a list of past and current prime shows.Black Scorpian- Ratings FAILURE! dropped mid season, Thank-you scifi
Jules Vern- Was to have a second season. Reruns were to start 9/17, the previous Tuesday changed that, not renewed
Farscape- ending 3rd season startign 4th season in April, bought through 5th season
LEXX- last season, ends in April
First Wave- poor ratings, and the producers wanted to end it. Finished in the summer
Outer Limits- season ended, I believe it will be back fo another season
SG1- Starts final season in June
The Chronicle- Good ratings on Sat, alright ratings on Fri, cancelled, fianle in April
Iman- poor writing in 2nd season lead to poor ratings, last episode just aired
Strange World- sucks imo, just aired ratings unknown
New Battlestar galactica- starts in fall(?) concurrent airings with partner FOXUp in the air
B5:LotR despite dissapointing ratings, evidence indicates it may happen
LEXX spinoff (?)
I’ve also heard rumors for a few other shows, I can’t remeber any names right now. Some shows may be soinoffs of Outer Limits episodesquote:

Iliek the idea of making announcements when someone reaches a new level. I’m pretty sure those settigns could be changed (as far as user status) I’ve sen other UBB boards have several different titles for users. It would seem odd to me that settign them is a one shot deal.
not only that but those are not SCIFI CHANNEL shows. Those are NETWORK shows.
Scifi.com shows three categories of scifi ratings; network, syndicated, scifi channelAt least you know how to do web pages. I’m having a hard enough time with the uncon page. Frey can testify to that. I’ll eventually get it right BTW its at: [url=http://thefrey.com/uncon/uncon-main.htm]http://thefrey.com/uncon/uncon-main.htm[/url]
but it will soon be: [url=http://thefrey.com/uncon/main.htm]http://thefrey.com/uncon/main.htm[/url] agianAny input would be greatly appreciated!
**************What do you all think about this idea:
below every name in post is their status, for some its aspiring sadgeezer, committed sadgeezer, moderator, and administrator
After 50 your committed. Can we had a few new categories? Like after 100 your completly sad, 250 beyond all hope, 500 Dalektek 790 (nothing personal, but so far he is the only non-mod to get that high) or maybe alien abductee or somehingFrom what I can tell there is no reall word limit, at elast in the moderators forum there isn’t. I copied all the text from above 4x times and put it into a test thread with no problem. So if there is a limit of words per post, its very large! I doubt we have anything to worry about.
Two considerations,
#1 I’m a mod so my rules i.e. flood control are differnt from another user
#2 I performed this test on the moderators forum, which may have differnt posting rules then other forums. I doubt this is a real concern though.Finally I knwo the board can crash if a thread gets too long, hence why FX is always making “thread name” pt 2 stuff
If someone has a very long story, this could occur, so a thread may have to be continued elsewhere, for board security.One last thing I just tested, it is possible for a non-moderator to create a thread on the announcements forum. But it has to be done in a round-about way.
Dead is never truelly dead in scifi. Just look at how many people came back from the grave already on Farcape.

You forget Squish. I’m on the side of light. My only goal is to make certain that the US sees 4.24 first. And sine your too bust fighting with your boss, Hypatia over who has the better clones, I will easily reach my goal. ButI;m not completley harmless, I may let england see the finale right after we see it first. Albeit at 4am your time.
your mutant armies are no match for my army of “light”.quote:

Excellent, this is just what I need. I’ll prepare the first offensive, and when the Squish Liberation Army comes to retaliate, the mutant army will be ther to stop him and protect me. mu-wha-ha-ha-ha-ha

I like “SadWriters”!Start off with Lexx forums and then add more later. That’s your best bet.
Ditto, lets first see how the LEXX FF works out, then move on to other shows when the time/demand arises
The impression I got was that these new forums were for LEXX fan fiction. Hence the title “New [b]LEXX[/b] Forum” at the top of all these recent threads. I have been wrong before though.

I would think it would work the same way as feedback is left on every other board: the reply button.
quote:
From the page where you must press agree before registering:
You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use the SadBOARD to post any material which is abusive, hateful, harassing, profane, threatening, invasive of a person’s privacy, or otherwise violative of any law.Although SadBOARD does not and cannot review the messages posted and is not responsible for the content of any of these messages, we at SadBOARD reserve the right to delete any message for any or no reason whatsoever. You remain solely responsible for the content of your messages.
That sums it up for me. As long as they are registered they agreed to this or at least pressed the “Agree” Button. So just make it that only registered users may post on the forums. Or just copy these statements to the new forums.
Or to keep it simple, no xxx, no snuff/slash.[ 06-02-2002: Message edited by: Headgehog ]
This may seem arbitrary but, where on the sadboard page should the new category go? Right after general scifi? Below LEXX? Right above the Members section?
Thanks, that clarifies a lot. But Oak Ridge can’t have that many rednecks, can it? A prof told me stories of how when they first opened the lab and factories they got some of the illiterate teenage hicks to run the reactors. But that was before the AEC, NRC and their 4 trillion rules and regulations. Besides having that many scientists and engineers (especially nukes [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img], we are the smartest brand of engineer (shamless self-plug)) should rub off on the inbreeds.

Thanks too. I could never figure what he was. Too many conflicting signals.
I agree with dgrequeen, a pic forum would take a lot of storage. And I still haven’t figured out how to upload stuff to my sadgeezer account. I imagine it may be harder for someone to try to upload their stuff here without one.

Sorry, I was just incredably excited when I read it and figured it out. I didn’t mean to come off as arrogant. The realization hit me like an H-Bomb!
In retrospect, I may have been better to wait for the episode, just becasue I can’t speculate on it anymore. AlthoughI wouldn’t have posted my specultion becaue I knew I would be wrong. Noone can predict the beans!But if DT remains true to himself, he won’t believe the blurbs anyway and still come up with his time loop/insect theories. He’s done it before!quote:
Originally posted by SadGeezer:
[QB]Should we set up a new CATEGORY? One which had a forum for fanfic, a forum for LEXX 5 scripts, and a forum for Fun One-Line Story posts (or indeeed, others – such as artwork etc.)
Even though its not my forum(s) Here’s my two cents;
I love the idea of putting a list of links above the forums. It was help me out a lot, sicne now I only need to get to the moderators forum to get to the /mods page and newswire page. I’m too lazy to bookmark it, or I’m too lazy to remember to do it; one or the other. Not to get off topic but I think this should be doen with the other forums.
I agree with the idea of having a seperate “fanfic” category, with several forums within it. Having sperate forums could eliminate your situation of mods disagreeing. Has such an instance ever ocured before? Each mod could have their own forum within the category, with major forums having two or three mods. I’m not nessacarily advocating such an idea, but it is an option.
Some of the rules in these new forums should be carried over from the other forums. I don’t belive porn, foul language (the board stops that usaully), flaming etc, isn’t permmitted on the other forums, so why should this be any different? Although considering the sensitive nature of some of the new forums (posters and their clones) new specific rules should be adopted. The OPEC rules seem like a good start. I’m also 95% sure that you can configure the board to show the rules as the top post everytime. I’ve seen other UBB boards do this. There’s no need to make everyone scroll down a few pages before they can view the posts.
One of the things I dispise about scifi.com is that people post one chapter at a time (of their 400 chapter novel) as a seperate thread. Thus flooding the board. I know this is a result of not being able to post more then x number of words per post, luckily our limit is much larger then theirs. (Mine is bigger then yours [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] ) Also scifi.com doesn’t have flood control. So this may also discourage posters from posting two paragraphs at a time. OT but can the flood control time be lowered, or must it stay at 120 sec? I think 90 sec would be better. A rule should be that a story that originates in a thread, should remain in that thread! Just hit reply to add more to the story.
An idea for another forums should be a clone forum for CF and CT. My ideas for forums are lexx 5 scripts, clone, one word story addition thingys, and general fanfic. Of course you or I may think up others.
I think that in the beggining the forum will require a little maitnence. Fanfic has always been a touchy subject here. I have no problem with it so long as its kept in its respective forums. I expect to see a little resistance in the beggining, even a minor flame war from some die hards at scifi.com, claiming that we’re moving in on their domain. But like the angst forum, it will die down in a week or three. However, I believe that in the beginnign month or two , the mods may have to move threads around to put them in their proper place (there’s a place for everything, and everything in its place [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]) this may include copying/deleting chapter 2-7 so that they’re replies to chapter 1. After a little while though, like any forum, the maitence will be minimal. Unless its the contriversal angst forum.
I don’t hink that script/fic addtions should be discussed unless its really “out there” even by lexx standards. One problem is that this baord is viewed by people spread out over at least 18 time zones. Austrailia-California. There not enough tiem ot excahnge emails over mundane/simple things, and have to wait for the other guy to wake up and reply. Unless your an insomniac/collge student/both like Mary Beth and I, and are up 20 hours of the day. Then soemthing like that is feasible. Luckily the 3 mods are only in EST and CST. An hour isn’t too bad.I couldn’t even tell you when its going to be rerun in America! LOTR was made by and for SciFi so they have first dibs. SciFi UK isn’t airing it any time in the next two months, so you probably have a while to go. If your lucky, you may have a VCR that can read US videos, and then find someone who hasn’t already sent their copy to another country.

I’d have to agree with JJ, I liked the Final Fantasy movie. But I’ve never played any of the games, and I can’t stand anime. True figuring ou what those thigns were was frustrating at first, but I thought they put a nice twist on two already cliched topics.
Thanks FX, hopefuly that day will never come.
Now that you mention Frey, I could go for an oatmeal raisan or maybe a peanut butter cookie.
Wow this an old thread! I remember reading an interview with Jerry Doyle on scfi.com from awhile ago and he mention that he was runign for congress. Does anyone know if he won?
Yes Bruce Willis and Jerry Doyle would make one kick ass team. Die Hard 4 anyone?

I’d just like to remind everyone that you need to let us know by midday Friday if the 20th or 13th works for you. We need this to make reservations at hotels! Your not commiting to anything yet. I know its too early to commit or get psyched up about, but we just need a round number. Honest if you back out in two months we won’t stalk you until you agree to come! So can everyone who hasn’t already, please take the poll, reply to this email or contact me.

No prob, I’ll just repost it.
I pretty much said that I agree that a LEXX story section would be good for the growth of the sadboard. New blood, new opinions. Degrequeen will make a good mod for that forum, and I too feel that Flamegrape will make a good moderator.I also mentioned that I’ll try to help anyway I can with the new forum and its designs. But only on a limited level, I don’t know [i]that[/i] much about web design. But I can solve problems, like in figuring out why soemthign isn’t working right. I’m also busy with school and uncon.
As for giving credit or blame to me for making technical suggestions. I didn’t make that many. But if it comes to blame, I’m blaming it on the dude who doesn’t speak english.
Thanks Sad.
It looks like it’s going to be the 20th of July. Unless a whole bunch of people decide the the 13th is better by friday, or a few actors(actresses) say that date is bad. If all goes well, we’ll know by Friday afternoon(mst)But it looks like it finally all coming together!
