    Which reminds me of a fanfic a friend of mine wrote where Repli!Weir saved Kate during Doppelganger by transferring her conscious into her own Replicator mind and then into her own replicator body.

    So yeah, anything is possible.

      What about a turtle soup for appetizer?!

      So back to the seriousness. I feel the SG:C became a completly dead place. The buzz is over and the message board is getting quieter every single week. I tried to post a few things, but the same 5-10 people respond only. Where are the fans?! Everybody couldn't ignore me or could they?

          Oh... that place has been dying for a while now. I find that when I don't check in a couple of days, I literally haven't missed anything.

          Oh, and I do plan to do that connection-game but my brain wasn't in it this weekend. It was convention-weekend this weekend and I was dead when I got home both days. Working the Millenium Falcon cockpit on saturday, visiting on sunday.

          Unfortunately true.

            This place was on its way to the grave as soon as Origins finished. They didn't add anything new other than a couple interviews.

            Back to the graveyard where it belongs.

              The only reason I am sad, because that place could have been so much more. I try to stay enthusiastic, so I have posted a few quiz questions just to entertain the few remaining active fans. Just I feel that the wrong decisions of the wrong management can push Stargate back where it was already. So if the SG:C fails, then probably all our future SG projects goes with it. Just it is annoying, that somehow MGM can never find a really professional company. You know the Stargate : Worlds was also not finished by the previously unknown Cheyenne Mountain what could have been a strong leg for the franchise. Now they have also chosen this TopFan company who only managed to divide the fandom instead of serving them with articles, videos, new contents. And I am pretty sure TopFan will blame the fans that they have refused to renew membership, SG is over blablabla. There will be some pathetic excuses, while they won't admit that they have caused it in the first place. While other companies put down on the desk such high quality tv shows that Stargate : Origins felt like a bad joke or a really poor attempt next to them. So I don't know what the future holds, but we have passed the testing the waters time or this little social experiment, if they don't announce something quickly then they will lose everyone.

                Agreed 100% with what you said. Thing is if, and I stress the if, we get new SG shows, I hardly doubt they would've used this platform anyway. It's simply not practical, and looks a bit more like a news feed from Facebook than an actual board where you can discuss fan-related topics.

                  TopFan only provides the template of the app and the website. They are not involved beyond the technical support aspect of the thing. They have plenty more big customers, like the DC Universe app that is about to launch in the US.

                  The content is all MGM and Stargate Command, so it's they who are actively dividing the fandom.

                  But they don't care about that aspect. They don't care about what fans want. It's what they want to offer and to whom that counts. If they truly were "for the fans", they would have put more effort into it.

                    SG:C will represent itself at New York Comic Con on 4th-7th October. Probably they "are working on it" what to promise or lie again...

                      Actually, if you search for Stargate Command on the NYCC website, you'll find you come up empty.

                      The booth is registered to MGM Networks so they're just a booth with stargate stuff, nothing more. Kinda like we were the booth with the millenium falcon cockpit at last weekend's convention.

                        I don't expect anything, just I mentioned it here. They have wasted the big opportunity in San Diego and then in Vancouver, so if MGM started a serious talk with Brad Wright, it needs at least a few months to create a new SG show.

                          Isn't Brad Wright currently involved in Travelers? (Excellent show btw, can't wait for S3!)

                            Yes, he is the showrunner there, but it doesn't mean he couldn't focus his creative energies in some other projects. Hopefully.
