I was just thinking about a funny user's guide to the stargate, and did a google search for it. Unfortunetly, All I found was the gateworld report on it, and the page no longer exists. Does anyone happen to have a copy? I remember that it was good for a laugh.


Here's the article from http://www.gateworld.net/news/archive/0205_fandomworld.shtml

Written from the point of view of the Stargate's manufacturer, the comical site includes such troubleshooting tips as "What do I do if the iris won't open?" and "Help! I've accidentally activated the Auto-Destruct. What do I do now?"

"If this [auto-destruct] countdown is not terminated by a ranking officer, village elder or other appropriate authority," the site reads, "a nuclear blast will detonate, instantly vaporizing the facility and everything within it and a 500-yard radius, with subsequent shockwaves and firestorms extending approximately 20 miles in all directions, given level landscaping. Always be sure to have a ranking officer, village elder or other appropriate authority available!"
