wanna have fun in fandom?

Because whedonland is awesome, it has now 2 sister communities: jjverse (teams are LOST, Alias, Fringe and Trek) and spnland (...duh?).

I'm not joining these but some of you might be interested.

I wish there was a BSG community like that! Coming up with team names is hard though (because you want people to join all teams). Possible team names: Cylons, Final Five, Military, Government, CIC, Deck Hands... or by ship: Pegasus, Galactica, Colonial One, Basestar... or maybe by planet? Caprica, Kobol, Earth... can't find a fourth... Team No Planet! Space! hahaha

Emmys noms in 40 minutes! Preparing myself to be disappointed! yay.
I love this post @ ew.com. They're rooting for Eddie & Mary in the lead actor in a drama category aww. I swear I didn't write this article.

Mary McDonnell, Battlestar Galactica: Seriously, Emmy, THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE. McDonnell's been revelatory for four seasons of BSG, and her final episodes showcased some of her finest work, as her Laura Roslin convincingly shifted from flirtatious lover to defiant cancer patient to resurgent fleet heroine. Failure to recognize her genius would be like calling Bill Gates a small business owner or saying Michael Phelps is just an okay swimmer. (Okay, so those are frakked up examples, but you know what else is frakked up? The inevitability of another McDonnell snub!)

Edward James Olmos, Battlestar Galactica: Can you imagine one of the best SciFi dramas in recent TV history without Olmos' stoic-but-tender performance? Yeah, me neither. If McDonnell gets her due, so should this dude. So say we all? So say we all!

Speaking of awards, but better ones, I forgot to post about the new Tubey Awards round. Go vote!

Been skipping a lot of your posts, f-list, because you're all posting your HP6 reviews. Who's with me to create a "I can't see the movie until August" support group? I know I'm not alone ;)

The big Emmy rant post, as predicted

( in which I discuss the categories I care about and rants about the usual snubs )

Maureen Ryan from the Chicago Tribune says it better.

yes another post, and it's pimpage time again!

so remember how a few hours ago I was ~*subtly*~ trying to make someone create a whedonland-like BSG community? It worked! goloptious created twelvecolonies!!! GO JOIN NOW!!!

The teams are: Galactica (I'm the team leader ^^), Pegasus, Colonial One and Basestar!
Positions of Team Leader are still open for Pegasus and Basestar as far as I know (xmaidelx if you still want the leadership of Colonial One it's yours!)

If you don't know what I'm talking about, it's very similar to the HP sorting communities. You get sorted into one of the 4 teams and compete in activities such as graphics, writing, games, trivia, etc. No need for special skills, you get points for participation (anonymous when it's graphics & writing) and for voting.

I know many of you are BSG fanatics like me so come have fun with us!

(it's just getting started so there's only the application post for now)
