[color=#000000ost_uid0]Zeke here with new fivers, a TJI, and a bunch of small stuff. Sorry for the lack of new material lately -- it's been a busy month for Kira and me. We'll be getting back to more frequent updates now, so keep an eye on this page.
Here are today's updates....

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Marc Richard has added "The Next Phase" in his section[/quoteost_uid0]
*reads it* *head goes [iost_uid0]BOOM[/iost_uid0] trying to keep track of all the references* Derek's fiver was really really funny! :lol: [quoteost_uid0]Sisko: Hey! You can't throw O'Brien in the box for playing with technobabble; that's my job! Alixus: One more word and I'll put you in the box. Sisko: Alixus: Ben? Sisko: Alixus: Who wants ice cream? Sisko: Oo! I do! Alixus: Ha! That was three more words! In you go.[/quoteost_uid0] And Zeke's satire is absolutely brilliant. The cameos by Gore, Christian, Merlin Missy, Falwell...oh, all of it is hilarious. :lol: One of the best ones yet! Great job. Good to see descriptions up for the three Mudd fivers too, particularly the one for "I, Mudd".[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I preferred "Mudd's Passion"'s blurb the most, but they were all good. Great fiver, Marc. Loved all the references, and, of course, Monty Python references especially. [quoteost_uid0]Ro: Look, you're not fooling anyone. Now just wait here with me for the wooden cart, will you?[/quoteost_uid0][/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]>> O'Brien: Hey, it's a technobabble inhibitor that runs on technobabble. How ironic. <<
LOL![/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]My personal favorite from "The Next Phase" was:
[bost_uid0]Worf:[/bost_uid0] What have you decided for the memorial service you are planning? [bost_uid0]Data:[/bost_uid0] Tradition calls for Ensign Ro to be honoured with the ancient Bajoran Death Chant. [bost_uid0]Ro:[/bost_uid0] Oh, no. I wish he'd settle for the modern five-minute version. [bost_uid0]La Forge:[/bost_uid0] Why? [bost_uid0]Ro:[/bost_uid0] Because the Chant is long and life is short. This needs to go in the Hall of Fame of 5MV references in fivers.[/colorost_uid0]

Could be my computer's senility at work, but the cell for "I, Mudd" is wonky.[/quoteost_uid0] Ooo, you're right. Thanks for pointing that out; I've fixed it now. (I hope that empty black cell wasn't the blurb NAHTMMM liked.) [quoteost_uid0][Kira] This needs to go in the Hall of Fame of 5MV references in fivers.[/quoteost_uid0] I agree -- it's up there with IJD's inspired bit at the start of "Blink of an Eye." What others have there been? Off the top of my head, the only one I can think of is my Chaotica scene in "Shattered." I loved both fivers, but my favourite part was this one from DD's: [bost_uid0]Alixus:[/bost_uid0] We were alone... in an uncharted -- [bost_uid0]Sisko:[/bost_uid0] Yeah, great. You were alone, let's go home. Longtime 5MV fans are more likely to see why I found this so hilarious. Hint: It's similar to something IJD did in his "Trials and Tribble-ations" fiver.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]There's sort of one at the start of Part One of the "Final Fantasy Tactics" series.
(Edit) And also one in "Cathexis". [quoteost_uid0]I hope that empty black cell wasn't the blurb NAHTMMM liked.[/quoteost_uid0] :smile: Nope, I saw an actual description there. I'm guessing that I used the all-seasons view while Nan used the single-season view. Or maybe vice versa, but I don't think so.[/colorost_uid0]

Along the same lines: there's an empty white cell where the blurb for "The Next Phase" should be.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]NAHTMMM: I'm not counting just any fiver that uses the word "fiver" at some point. Lots do that -- more subtantial references aren't as common.
Marc: Actually, that's because I haven't done the blurbs for that one or "Paradise" yet. They'll be up later today [EDIT: by which I mean now].[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]OK, I think I've thought of a "good" example, although it was unintentional. Janeway's J/N remark in "Macrocosm" versus the J/N example in the Submissions FAQ--someone even commented on it at the time the fiver was published.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Good ones, all!
[quoteost_uid0][bost_uid0]Sisko:[/bost_uid0] Then I'll blame it on the rain. [bost_uid0]O'Brien:[/bost_uid0] Yeah? [bost_uid0]Sisko:[/bost_uid0] Yeah. [/quoteost_uid0] Okay, I remember the two skinny, dancing dreadlock guys, and all the hoo-hah that came a bit later, but the song itself left such a non-impression on me that I had to look this up. Turns out it was written by Diane Warren of [iost_uid0]Faith of the Heart[/iost_uid0] fame.(?) Heh. [/colorost_uid0] |

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]...we need to hitch a ride on the next shuttle that's heading over to the Romulan ship.
Ro: Won't the whole shuttle go right through us as soon as the pilot starts to accelerate? La Forge: No, the shuttle seats are made of the same material as the floors of the Enterprise.[/quoteost_uid0] :lol: Nice to see that plothole caught in the fiver -- I always wondered about that one myself. I was also laughed a lot at O'Brien's attempts at Vulcan techniques. And, "Lexxican"... As always, very enjoyable![/colorost_uid0]
