Slow Day...
Cut me some slack. Things have been slow, I haven't been on the board in a while, we're between seasons...and I could have whipped up an article named more appropriately, like "All Your Basestars Belong to Us." --Spencerian 17:43, 13 May 2006 (CDT)

Not funny
I don't think this meets my exacting standards to stand among the small number of silly pages. Seriously, AYB was played out three years ago. --April Arcus 17:40, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
- Okay. I don't really think there should be any silly pages.--The Merovingian (C - E) 18:24, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
- Actually I quite like the silly pages. --Mercifull 03:40, 24 May 2006 (CDT)
Let's play the Feud (vote)
A quick vote (let's give it a week max, to 5/31) on if this page is sufficiently funny. I won't be offended (no, I won't, really...) if the page is judged as boring. --Spencerian 08:22, 24 May 2006 (CDT)
Keep the page and nurture it until the page appears as a worthy featured article that appeals to family and friends, and is later cited by Ron D. Moore himself as too funny to die:
Rip it out of its namespace like a bad seed, crushing it utterly into oblivion and pouring a gallon of RoundUp on its remains for good measure:
