One of the problems we BSG jihadists face is that people are stubborn. No matter how many times we drill it into them, some people just don't get that this show kicks their behinds. What's needed, clearly, is a Top 10 list! So here for your future BSGvangelical work is The Top 10 Reasons Battlestar Galactica is Better Than You. You're welcome. Of course, this site hasn't been fully converted yet either. But I've gotten a start on it -- the Statement of Purpose has now been cleansed. Perhaps this, and the new graphics (thanks to IJD GAF for the forum one), will make it clear to doubters that I'm not just whistling Boxey here. |
Is Ron Moore going to submit five-minute podcasts which consist of him smoking an entire pack of cigarettes in one massive inhalation, and then cackling about how fracking awesome Eddie and Mary are? 8)

Frak. I've gotta PHP that section so those errors will quit happening (replaced by new ones).
|
If I refuse to abide by this new order, can I start my own five minute star trek site as a protest?
|
Boy, I picked the WRONG time to come back to these forums...
I mean, I haven't even watched a whole episode of BSG. Hope that doesn't make me a sinner here now. |
The church of RDMology demands you say 50 so say we alls.
|
IJDGAF, shouldn't that be the TOS Galactica:
http://www.phoxim.de/gordon_brinkman...lactica_01.jpg , not the Ent-A (Forgive me Zeke). If you crop, edit, flip, and resize one like this, you ought to be able to whip up a more conformal avatar in half an hour or so. |
I still maintain the Dreadnaught/Battleship/Whateverit'scalled in Starcraft was modelled after that thing. Nobody else believes me.
|
I'm confused. If this is FM-BSG, why does the heading above the list say "Five Minute Voyager"?
~~Lostoyannaya :wink: |
I can stay silent no longer!
Evil must be opposed! [hangs self.] GAK! |

http://www.rpgclassics.com/subsites/...tlecruiser.gif I think I've always compared Starcraft's battlecruiser to another computer game's ship: The Ur-Quan Dreadnought http://starcontrol.classicgaming.gam...s/urq5_sc2.gif But they're all relatively similar. (Well, okay, the Ur-Quan ship is green.) |
I personally think it looks like the JX-359 Battle Cruiser from the series "Planet X"
(it was short lived, never made it past the 1st episode before being pulled because of questionable content. Think Zeke post questionable content.) |

I'm sure Leto II would heartily approve of all this, and so do I.
Down with the unbelievers! |
Okay, you've had your fun. Can we have the regular, NORMAL site back now? Seriously, even BSG gets stale after awhile. Not that I've ever seen it. I'm still in broadcast-TV-only purgatory.

We're all missing the point here. The other series were cast out from the 12 subsites of 5m.net... and soon they will return...
The only way to prevent it is to stop the subsite heads fraternising with the old content... Or else you'll be driven out, with a rag-tag group of followers - forced to produce a fiver every 33 minutes or be exterminated by the forces of that which you once shunned... |

(Actually, I'm neutral. I want to see how far this goes.) |
Who is with me to find the mythic plug, to stop this evil invasion! *Gets a hand-raise from Kirk, who he sends to illogic Zeke out of this madness.* :lol: :wink:
|
Zeke, if you just chucked five years work down the drain with absolutely no way for us to rent the scuba gear necessary to find it again, you are even more evil than Zuke.

I still maintain this is a big old funny joke, that took way, way too long to produce, so everyone (and I mean everyone) will see it and laugh (Cry, etc) before it's taken down.
I meant, I hope, sirs. I like Battlestar As much as the next guy (Probably more) but I am a Trek boy. It's like insulin to me. If I don't get several hits a day, I'm finished! I do like the BS ship, though. Anything city-sized in space gets a tick in my book. |
Chilling thought:
What if this is the evil LORD ZUKE in disguise, at long last beginning his new campeign of conquest? *Shudders.* I'm evil, but not this evil... *Watches BSG once or twice to keep people away from him, while trying to decide what next to defend himself with... Kahns, or Kirk clones set for 'computer kill'.* |

As it is, I'll just wait a few more centons for the Official Five Minute Memo regarding the changeover, and then take the last functional subsite and an odds-and-sods assortment of fivers and go in search of the original site from which all the others sprang... ...which I will find in a followup series, coded in BASIC and featuring ANSI graphics. Oh, and you'll take my White Star when you pry it from my cold, undead hands. |

*Bows again.* If only ze- wait, the hero of trek has returned!!!
*Drags over 5MV, and protects it on his own site, with massive legions of trek-warriors to prevent it's recapture by the obviously temporarily deranged zeke.* For middle earth! Wait, that's not right... For the Voyager! There we go. Yodck, cover me! *Grabs the One Site!* |
I still find it disturbingly coincidental that my roommate got hooked on BSG (and I mean hooked) the same day that this, ahem, 'joke'. Came out. I'm thinking we may be dealing with a wide-ranging conspiracy here to wipe out ALL known sci-fi but BSG. Zeke and my roommate may be only the vanguard. Be on your guard!
|
Nice bit of scuba gear. Just hope I don't get the bends swimming up again.

...Does this mean the Fivers will still be late? Ahh, sweet nostalgia. ~~Lostoyannaya PS. To evay - I liked the evil mirror makeover for TripHammered you did this week^^. Very...evil. :wink: |

so is BSG like Trek? Cause I'm confused. I've never seen the show Battlestar Galactica and I have no clue what it's about. I know it's sci fi though. And who's Ron Moore? lol j/k. I think he wrote for Trek at one time, right?

The film was almost immediately followed by a television series that continued the storyline, and after the show was cancelled a new one ran in 1980. It was then re-vamped in 2003 as a new television show, amongst the contraversy that Starbuck had somehow gotten himself a sex change. Although the original film was awesome....BRING BACK FMV PROPERLY! ~~Lostoyannaya :wink: |
Hear hear! :D

Before Marc fived The Gun On Ice Planet Zero (that title alone should give you some idea what the series was like), I used to refer to Five Minute Battlestar Galactica as the last-ditch scraping-the-bottom-of-the-barrel never-ever-gonna-be-fived-as-long-as-there's-something-else...I've forgotten what I was talking about. Anyway, I think that something like Earth: Above and Beyond is going to now be the mythical Last Fiver. |
No, I think the last one will be Howard the Duck, probably because it makes everyone's eyes burn.
|
Oh, please don't tell me that the fivers will ever end! Maybe if you insist that only sci-fi and similar things are acceptable (beside Shakespeare, video games, and other similar deviations), that still leaves a LOT to five. Maybe we could five Star Trek novels, too, or start caption contests like over at Sev Trek. The possibilities are endless!
