Way to go, RecentRecruit! Keep up the conversions -- it's the only way we're going to get more 'Fly.

As for this place, you're #20874 here, and it's so shiny to see you. I'm hoping FollowMal's newbie-detector will sniff you out so she can fit you with your own virtual browncoat.

Meanwhile, come with me to our galley. There's a lavish buffet ready to be questioned, and at its center is a big bowl of strawberries. Do be careful of the punch. It's mostly Mudder's Milk.

Keep on spreading the good word!

sounds like you are doing the same - welcome aboard RecentRecruit.... make yourself at home.

This is a pretty interesting place - we may not all agree on everything, but we do all agree on one thing - our love of Firefly - and that makes us mighty...

It is true, the word is spreading quickly, I recently introduced my cousin to the verse and to his suprise and mine also his step-mother was already familiar to the verse via serenity, we showed her firefly and she watched in a marathon session. she is already introducing the verse to her people. i would say at least 20 or so new converts in 2 weeks time here in vegas and that is just within my family. Everyone we introduce it to has become obsessed with it and a few have actually gotten angry when they find out how fox burried firefly. The snowball is in full effect!!!

Welcome, RecentRecruit! Don't be ashamed to be a newbie, I'm still one too, but we all have to start somewhere.

Nice job on the conversions too! FollowMal should be around sometime with a Browncoat for you, just make yourself at home, have some strawberries...there should be a Fruity Oaty Bar around here somewhere if you want to be really daring.

Mine is an evil sugar high laugh! Bwahahahaha!

Welcome, RecentRecruit (I hope you're gonna stick around long enough for that name to lose it's initial meaning.

)
Hehe, not used to geekiness, and the first you hear is about virtual browncoats and beverages.

Don't be scared, we just wanna play.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Welcome aboard RecentRecruit! Glad to have you aboard!

You're right, word of mouth is what has got us this far, and it will carry us further still so long as all the browncoats out there are spreading the word.

Tell friends, family, coworkers, total strangers, whoever, about our wonderful movie, show, and 'verse. The more the merrier and we need to push those movie DVDs!

RecentRecruit! We're so glad you're here!

It's my acquired job on this shiny site to hand out browncoats to the new folk--- I really like my job.

*hands RecentRecruit a new browncoat from the new shipment in the storeroom*

It's a good thing my new shipment of 'coats got here, cuz there have been lots of new folks here this week.

And that is what it's gonna take to have more 'verse too.

I hope you love it here as much as I do, RecentRecruit.. this is a most wonderful place.

We are busy planning a whole Summer of Serenity to
make folks aware of our series and movie. We all want more, and we're all grateful for what we have too, and want to show it.
There's the screenings that Anonymous1 mentioned above, and they are such good works. Be sure and check out if there is one close to you.
There's a mass buying of the DVD of Serenity and hey, even Firefly, if you can afford both on that day.. that day being June 23rd. Then after a whole summer of shindigs and writing campaigns and oh, many shiny things, including cons- we are going to have the big celebration of the anniversary of the release of Serenity, called Serenity 'Versary on Sept. 30th of this year. We plan on saying thank you to Universal in a big way.

So welcome RecentRecruit, make yourself to home.

UncleSpikey,

You need a 'coat too!

*hands UncleSpikey a browncoat of his own*

I want to echo the cautions you've received about not prowling around the board too much before you see the Big Damn Movie... you don't want it to be spoiled.

We do want you to feel welcome though, and I'd reckon there'll be folks along soon to welcome you to the galley as well.

Post often, we love to yack and we're glad you're amongst us.

Welcome, welcome, welcome RecentRecruit!

Glad to have you amongst our ranks! *Hands Recentrecruit their very own rain stick.*

(I'm starting a new tradition here. You're the first new member to receive this honour!)

This is a great wee haven, with lots of different things to do. There's the Blue Sun Room for all your fan fic, wallpaper and artwork needs. There's a lot of interesting stuff to read in the community too, and the archive goes back a couple of years in both these areas, so you'll never be bored!

The folks around these parts are friendly and welcoming too.

Take a seat and make yourself at home!

I only got 19 year old daughter stories... sorry gals.

I'm so glad you spoke up, SassyBrownCoat, we'd have missed out on you! Which wouldn't have been good, I can tell by your post we've been needin' you to brighten our board!

*FM shakes out a browncoat from over her arm, gauges the size and guesses right, hands SBC a browncoat of her own*

Now you're official! Welcome home. And I hope it's like home as much to you as it is to the rest of us. I always think of the crew sitting down to the table when I say this stuff...cuz we're like that a little.

FloralBunny and Chindi and all the others will be here soon with goodies and I'll drop back by and grab some of Jossisagod's coffee and some strawberries and ( I hope she nabbed some!) hopefully cream. Mmmm, my favorite.

I love our shiny ship, it just keeps getting better and better.

*the bun arrives from another raid to find two more new 'coats hanging out here*

Wow! Do I hear rainstick music? CosmicFugitive, what a great idea. Pretty soon we'll have a whole rainstick marching band.

And look at Uncle and Sassy in those coats. Shiny indeed. Welcome to our magic place.

Here are the promised berries, along with some tomatoes and rosemary. On the mule is a whole case of Mudder's Milk and a cooler full of ice-planets (chocolate and vanilla this time)and, if it didn't fall off during the chase, you'll find a big basket of greens right up on top.

The word here is "spreading" all righty, if you're referring to my hips. We eat well.

Dig in, everyone!

Sure! Sorry about the delay. They were delayed in transit from Persephone.

I couldn't get a hold of Saffron.

I think she's tied up with work commitments.

These rainsticks are custom made to your needs though. They all are, including Recentrecruit's.

See you guys around the board!
