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)

Actually, the plot of the miniseries fits this pretty well. --April Arcus 18:39, 13 May 2006 (CDT)

Should it not be "All Your Battlestar Are Belong to Us" ;) --gougef 00:15, 14 May 2006 (CDT)

Well, I wanted the title to sound grammatically correct, and not like engrish. --Spencerian 10:38, 15 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:

Well, it's just my opinion. --April Arcus 18:47, 24 May 2006 (CDT)
I think it could be funnier... unfortunately, I don't know exactly how it should be funnier. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 20:39, 24 May 2006 (CDT)
Hurl it into a sack, hurl the sack into a river, and hurl the river into space. --The Merovingian ^{(C - E)} 21:06, 24 May 2006 (CDT)
If I worked hard, I might be able to increade the funny-to-not funny ratio, as I have some experience with that, but I don't know that it's worth the time. It would probably mostly mean reducing the amount of text, but, really, there's just one joke, here. If it were a voiced-over re-edit from actual BSG footage, this would be very funny, I think (Engrish included). Anyway, bleh. --Day ^{(Talk - Admin)} 23:07, 24 May 2006 (CDT)

OK. Get the RoundUp, the herring and the Garden Weasel. I can't bear to delete it myself, but the voting leans strongly to deletion, so smoke like it ain't no thang. --Spencerian 09:05, 25 May 2006 (CDT)
