Today's update: a new Top 10 list from the staffer with the fewest to his credit so far, Derek Dean. (Which is only fair. Not only has he been on staff less than a year, but he produces so many fivers I'd just be annoyed if he were churning out T10s besides.) Here's the Top 10 New Year's Resolutions of the [iost_uid0]Deep Space Nine[/iost_uid0] Cast, slightly delayed for reasons of I forgot I had it in my inbox, dagnabbit.


And hey look, I picked a colour code for T10![/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Supplemental: Speaking of top ten lists, there's a highly amusing thread going on at the 5MV Forums on that very subject, entitled Top Ten List Of.... If you don't visit the forums, here's an example of why you should.[/colorost_uid0]

[quoteost_uid0="Standback"][color=#000000ost_uid0]I didn't get this one.[/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]
[color=#000000ost_uid0]I didn't get it either. My humor must be pretty abstract.

Well, that or a minor glitch in the posting of the list.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Supplemental Supplemental: If you found #8 on Derek's top ten list confusing, that's because my aim was off when I pasted that one. I accidentally pasted it over #7, leaving #8 unchanged from the previous list. I've fixed it now; sorry for the confusion. (Also, apparently the main graphic on all the T10 list pages never got uploaded. I'll upload it when I get home.)[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]4. ...and then you actually have the same exact entry, word-for-word, at the same exact rank, as another Top 10 List--even if it doesn't make any sense
[bost_uid0]--from the top ten list thread[/bost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]

Cool - now it makes sense, [iost_uid0]and[/iost_uid0] it's even funnier. [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Well, considering I`ve seen 11 DS9 episodes in the last 11 days (including one just an hour ago), this list was more than welcome,

[quoteost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Odo: Get into shape[/quoteost_uid0]

Heheheh. Â [/quoteost_uid0]

Double heheheh :lol:[/colorost_uid0]

Whoa, I hadn't even realized that. :O


That's so very weird. It's like I have ESP or something.


Scary stuff.[/colorost_uid0]
