At this moment, you need more than a 100 posts in their forum to vote. The are afraid of a browncoat invasion. We are mighty and feared. Remember though fear leads to the dark side, so be careful.

Re: 100 vote rule
I have been registered on the site for a while, and I didn't see the 100 min. post rule, and in fact, looking thru the thread a bit, still don't see it.

I've been registered since April, so... if they don't like me voting, let 'em rip it out.
(They might also be surprised how quickly I can get to 100 posts ;-) )

Yeah, but a presence on the skiffy board is good, there is a Firefly part of their forum.

The more Browncoats Skiffy sees voting and posting and taking part over there, the more they know we're a viable and active fandom. Please register-- you won't be sorry the Firefly board over there is very fun and it's easy to get 100 posts... although that's not required to vote.

No you're not Canter! It's a bit confusing compared to FFF.net. But it's very similar to the Browncoat Board ( www.serenitymovie.org)and they make you feel very welcome over there on the Firefly skiffy board. They're very active and fun.

Any vote we can dominate puts our fandom out there and in the public eye. As long as we're nice about it and uphold the dignity of the Browncoats, we're doing a good thing.

Very shiny LeadB.

I think as the con season and the screenings draw closer it might be nice to choose a day to fund raise a bit for Haken and our home here. We're all so fortunate that he's kept it here for us to play on and organize on and enjoy each other's company on.

I went and donated.

I'm still waiting for my conformation email after registering

Is scifi prejudiced against the browncoats ?

No! Not at all.

They've been our friend for a long time now.
Running marathons, giving the BDM a big write up, following Nathan's career, I'm sure they'll say something about Summer's new series in their next magazine.

The site has literally 10s of thousands of members, go check out the folks talking on the Heroes board BSG board and the SG-1 & Atlantas boards. It's like the GateWorld forum... huge and with new people applying every day- they are overwhelmed. Give them a little time.

If you still have trouble write 'em! They want you as a member, they're just slow.

My recollection was the first time I tried to register, the confirmation email didn't show up; if you dig a bit, you can find a place "resend email confirmation" (or something like that); have them do so.

Be aware there's a minor flame war going on in the thread; try to be civil and present a "good face forward" for the Browncoat contingent.

One of the reasons I have not wanted to post at the scifi site is there are too many flame wars going on

I can only say the topics I've followed and posted on in the past on SciFi have been pretty well behaved; I was rather surprised this flared up as it did. On the other hand, in the past I had only looked at some pretty "targeted" threads, so perhaps my experience isn't the common one.

Well, not sure if it makes you feel any better, but they might well have been trying to block out a set of "cheaters" who were trying to create a large number of id's so they could vote multiple times; and you might have got caught up in that.

At this point the contest seems to have blown out the flame, and it progressing pleasently. You might (or might not) want to take another stab at registration. So far Serenity is holding her own....

I'll leave you more hardcore browncoats to keep the faith at scifi.

Personally, now that scifi blocked me,
I've no time for those scifi administrators

Scifi can run whatever polls they want on that site. Serenity is an icon and everyone who knows Firefly loves it unlike BSG. Serenity went out with a bang and no dumb Skiffy game is going to put a dent in her, and in dull soap opera dramas like the new BSG things get worse before they get better

There's no need for scifi to reimagine flying cycles.
For me this stupid bsg series jumped the shark a long time ago

Fair 'nough, Mr. Town.

Definitely, this should be done for fun than anything else; while I'd like to see serenity come out on top, it is, at the end, nothing more than a game.

FANTYORMINGO

They banned me a few weeks ago.

If you register at SciFi vote down Galactica the scifi mob will hunt you down, they even made threats against the wife of the BSG producer and almost chased her off the internet for good.

A website for loons, avoid it at all costs.

FIZZIX

I'm going fine, and figgering that if they don't smack me out/off for being PISSED at the Who fans and their wonky pacts that they claim that we broke (omg, if there's an independent browncoat who doesn't fricking live on the Skiffy Firefly forum who doesn't read the Skiffy Firefly forum and joined the Skiffy forums for a different fandom to begin with, and doesn't know about the pact, and they vote the TARDIS down a point EVER, they get pissed and fly off the handle and decide they're going to have a total fricking alliance against Firefly and break Serenity to all HELL despite my arguments that Serenity and the TARDIS are kindred spirits... *breathe* ... I know. Just... it's retarded.)

There are four ships left, the fricking GOD of the forum, called the Galactica (Who would have guessed? It's sponsored by the fricking BSG forum!!), the TARDIS, Serenity, and Moya.

We're in third place - if there are any who follow this at all, and are over at Skiffy, and have a couple of posts (25, or so, to keep them from magic-uber-banning you) want to help... now would be the time. If we can frack up the Galactica while the Whovians and Scapers aren't looking, we have a better chance of going. And make sure Serenity doesn't die when you blink, 'cos the fricking pissed Whovians are on the warpath like the Daleks or summin'.

Sorry.

OPTIM

There is a whole lot of in-house politics at skiffy, the fans stick together in their own seperate parts of the forums like some kind of crazy tribe, rocking the boat will always get one group of fans upset. DrWho people will go crazy if you knock their show, the RDM fanboys will go insane if you mention how dull their show is.

don't bother with this link, I know what the administrators are like at scifi. If you go over there voting against their own show then scifi will have you banned. The channel own the property of the galactica franchise and want to promote the show as much as possible even if it is doing poor.

This is the official site for the channel they get lots of trolls, so the administrators don't deal with criticism very well.

This flame war stuff is very new to me... I'm really not having any trouble over there on the board other than the vote goes very rapidly as folks whose ships you're voting against pounce on your vote and negate it. LOL

I've never had trouble with anyone or a mod or admin over there either. I love the skiffy board particularly the Firefly forum for it's zest and fire. So many of the FF/S boards have slowed down and are losing members or interest ( this one included ) while skiffy is still up and ready for the future. Admittedly it's easier to be up when you're new and they get lots of new folks over there.

Anyway, I'm participating because ShanYu from over there asked me to and I'm having no trouble, just fun.

Here's the latest vote:

( oh and I vote strictly for what I like, no alliances formed for me )

Galactica (BSG) 218
Moya (Farscape) 158 ( -1 )
Serenity (Firefly/Serenity) 224 (+1)
