Periodically Updated Thought[edit]

"True glory consists in doing what deserves to be written; in writing what deserves to be read; and in so living as to make the world happier for our living in it." -- Pliny The Elder

Let's get out there and write what deserves to be read, people.

Working on the Featured Episode todo's:

Who's your daddy?
Who's your daddy?

"The Man with Nine Lives" is the current featured episode. Contributors are encouraged to watch the featured episode and update its episode summary and help work on the episode's to do list.


I have watched this featured episode.

Podcast Transcripts[edit]

I finally caved and added this to my list. I always felt that my transcription was too slow, and preferred verifying, but I've been doing some transcription lately.

Development Pages[edit]

Experimental pages or pages in development that aren't ready for the main namespaces (yet).

Future Projects[edit]

  • TOS nitpicks - a neat link I found looking for Red Squadron info.

Steelviper's Thoughts[edit]

Pages in my userspace where I reflect on wiki or BSG stuff.

2007 Kansas City Corporate Challenge[edit]

  • 2.5 Mile Bike Race: Rained Out
  • 5k: 24:59

Origin of Nickname[edit]

"A truly fearsome beast, the great viper of Arcadia possesses strength and tenacity unmatched by any other predator on that world. It coils around its prey in a crushing embrace, then finishes its kill with a deadly poison. The warriors of the Clan I name Steel Viper show remarkable tenacity in battle and in their service to our great mission. May they continue to serve with unshakable faith, and may their opponents learn to fear the fangs of the Steel Vipers."
-- From Birth of a New Society: The Collected Writings of Nicholas Kerensky, Strana Mechty Press, 3025

Gun Stuff[edit]

Gurth-Telechý[edit]

Gurth-Telechý has been operational for some time now. However, never to be satisfied with the status quo, I decided to swap out scope rings on her the other day. The result was the scope being as close to the bore as I could imagine (at least while still being able to move the AO). I had to swap scope bases to get it up a little higher, as the bell ended up touching the barrel with just the ring swap.

Site Role (if any)
Battlestar Central Technical Advisor
GalacticaBS Artist
Official Scifi Boards
Mortal Storm Commander/Wiki-helper

At GalacticaBS (and now at the Mortal Storm board) I'm known as "WikiViper" due to the abundance of Vipers there, and the fact that "Steel" and "SV" are both already taken.
