ROFL at the confusion a bit of UK slang can cause!

[Lt. Aiden Ford]

LOL, there is a "Talking American" thread, there should be a "Talking British" thread.

Is "British" an okay term for UK-ers?

If you say "Talking English", you'll confuse a LOT of people. ;P

Has any one noticed that in Stargate epp "48 Hours" Mckay was calling everyone lunatics because removing the master control crystal from a DHD and activating it would overload the stargate because their would be nothing to regualte the power between the DHD and the Stargate.

So how the Atlantis gate could still dial out "Safely" without a master control crystal in it?

I hope that makes sense

Maybe they couldn't.

[Dazzar]

Maybe they couldn't.

If they couldnt then how did they get to the planet?

Touché

[Dazzar]

lol

[Major Tyler]

That's a good question. You might have to catch the ear of one of TPTB to get it answered.

[Dazzar]

TPTB??

Sorry if dumb question

[Major Tyler]

TPTB??

It's an acronym for "The Powers That Be" of Stargate, such as the writers, directors, producers, etc.

BTW: (By the way ) Welcome to GateWorld!!

I believe that the crystal was not the master crystal but a special on that added a long distance factor to the DHD so that they can use the 8th chevron.

I think greytop may have the answer.

ah yes it could be

Well the only problem with this episode was, as pointed out the fact the people they met. I mean to my knowledge Hammond never met Weir, although she may have known of him, it would have been cool if Weir thought he had a beird, lol. But I just think TPTB used this ep to get a cameo with Hammond and Walter, and nothings wrong with that!

It also had a lack of guest actors around in the SGC, the most I ever saw was at Sheppard's "Dead Mates and Girls that turned me down Reunion", which notably had a few product placements.

By far the best scenes and quotes were McKay, though Sheppard and Tayla got a few too. What puzzled me was the fact that Weir came through the Stargate alone, but later met Rodney in a lab coat.

Favourite Line: "Dancing Hamsters"
