[color=#000000:post_uid0]Halfway through our celebrations, here's today's material:<ul> Derek Dean brings us the next DS9 Mirror Universe episode with Five-Minute "Shattered Mirror (http://3sygma.com/fiveminute/ds9/shatteredmirror.html)"
Marc Richard also makes a contribution in his own section with Five-Minute "Remember Me (http://3sygma.com/fiveminute/nextgen/rememberme.html)"
One of my favorite [i:post_uid0]X-Files[/i:post_uid0] episodes happens to have an A/U theme, so here's Five-Minute "4-D (http://3sygma.com/fiveminute/scifivers/4d.html)", by me
And finally, our newest staff member tries his hand at our feature with Sleapers, part 4 (http://3sygma.com/fiveminute/features/sleapers4.html). Â Come to think of it, Derek's stand-alone tendency for bad puns means it's probably a good thing we didn't try to have a guess-the-author contest this year...
Speaking of last year's constest, now seems as good a time as any to announce what we've devised this year. Â It's not a contest, per say -- more like a game. Â Firstly, there is at one cameo per part by a guest author or a forumgoer. Â Some of the cameos are much better hidden than others, and I doubt any one forumgoer would be able to guess them all without putting their heads together with at least one other person. Â (You're welcome to try.) Â This isn't an official contest, just something to entertain you in the forums. Â (So don't bother emailing your guesses to any of us.) Â Secondly, in part 1, IJD mentions that we've been to at least thirty worlds, by his count. Â Well, we've dropped subtle and not-so-subtle references to places we've "sleaped" to throughout each part so you can try counting (and listing) all the worlds. Â I'm curious to see whether anybody can get them all. Â Hopefully you'll all have as much fun figuring these things out as we had putting them in.[/list][/color:post_uid0]
