Heee! smuffster is making a webpage for daysofatlantis and she's got the forums up.

Picture five authors making up accounts and starting random shipping wars and snarking at each other and using the worst grammar they can possibly manage and then others berating that grammar and... and it's all about fictional characters in a fictional soap opera based on another fictional show...

I am amused!

By the way, several episodes have gone up in daysofatlantis since Christmas, so wander over if you haven't read them yet! :)

Oh My God!

DAYS OF ATLANTIS TV GUIDE WEBSITE BY SMUFFSTER!!!

Check it Out! Smuffster rocks by socks! Look at the advertising! Eeeee!

The latest episode of Days of Atlantis is up. Check out Episode Five. If you find that you've lost the plot, there's also a really quick recap up to episode five over here (clicky)

Cheers

Episode 2 (by Sethoz) of daysofatlantis is up! For those not already addicted to this soap opera...why not? Go read, I command you.


Sounds like a storm is coming in. A big storm. Lots of thunder. *peers out the window*

Episode One of daysofatlantis is up care of lavvyan.

Copied from lavvyan's journal, because her summary made me giggle:
See Bates’ and Teyla’s secret love affair! Watch John and Rodney struggle to find love under the watchful eyes of John’s "official" lover, Elizabeth Weir! Boo at the screen at Kavanagh’s evil plans! And see lavvyan write het.

Check out the latest episode of this on-going soap opera over HERE.

The pilot episode is over here.


We now have five authors, so things will hopefully move a little faster. *rubs hands together in evil glee* Whee!

Hi all,

I've updated the userinfo page for daysofatlantis with the vid and the new premise and I've put up a short first post.

We are open for business! Let the wacky-ness begin!

Just a reminder that anyone can friend the community, but I'm only joining up people that are writing or making things for the community at present.

Cheers
Starrylizard - who is currently over-excited about her weird little comm. :p

Woohoo! Finally yokiem has been brainwashed into delurking enough to get her own LJ. Go friend her and make her welcome.

In the meantime, she had asked me to post her latest vid up here. (I assume she will post it to her own journal at some point.)

Anyway, this is for the silly comm daysofatlantis I am trying to set up. As you know, any good soap opera needs an opening theme and credits and yokiem had fun making me some. Here it is.

Please leave comments. They are loved and adored.

So, since the conversation I had the other day with smuffster, and the silly conversation that I had with rinkle a long time ago, I've set up daysofatlantis.

I'm not sure how to go about this, but I'm sort of hoping to find a few writers to join me in the silly-ness and share my crack.

Each author could join in at any time and just write the next bit of one of the on-going story-arcs, with lots of plot lines happening at once...just like in an episode of Days. (See the comments of the above post for examples)

If anyone is interested in writing some of this, just comment here or email me (starrylizard at livejournal.com). I'll join you up and we can figure out the details of how it should work.

Also, if anyone is good at making layouts and would like to overhaul it, please let me know...mine is pretty bad! I'm not good at these things. The banner is bad even for me, but I'm just not patient enough to play with Photoshop tonight.

If I can gather a few writers and start something going, then I'll pimp the comm, but at the moment it's just an idea really.

Just came back from lunch with Yokiem and another friend in the Student Room. Yokiem brought her lunch from home, so she beat us down there and got bored waiting, so she turned on the TV. We haven't actually used the TV since cricket season, but when I say TV, I mean there is a TV/VCR/DVD combo thing tied into a projector, so when you turn off the lights it's kinda like watching a movie screen. Plus there are nice comfy couches to lounge about on.

So yeah, we got bored with Oprah and ended up watching Days of Our Lives. Seriously, I've never really been into soapies and this was hilarious. The three of us were doing voice overs and preempting what the characters would do next, plus the story recapping on these shows is hilarious.

They had this whole scene where one guy's dialogue told us how this woman had not had one, but two bouts of amnesia, of which she hadn't recovered from either one yet. And her doctor (the guy doing the dialogue-ing) had just revealed that he was actually her husband. His reason for not telling her sooner -- "I was afraid that if I pushed her too early she might have a psychotic break" I kid you not.

OMG! Hilarious! Best lunchtime fun I've had in ages. Plus it reminded me again of my 'Days in Atlantis' crack that I was on for a while -- before I realised there were RPGs on LJ already doing a better job than me.

Yes I tried to rope some of you into writing this round robin-style with me, but had to give up. You're all just too intelligent to join in with my stupidity. *grins* Smart people!

As for the most recent SG1 and SGA episodes (10.5 and 3.5), may I say "Wha?" ( this post was just getting kinda long... )
