You see this is why I asked that question before I got in a muddle with my posts on the spoiler comm.

Now lets see if anyone can wheedle any info out of Joe about those last two empty spots.

See what you did, PG? In all your haste to rule the season 5 board, you made mistakes!

From 'two mentiones = new thread', to 'one mention deserves a thread' my bum.

Where can you hide from the end of everything?

Ragnarok will not happen... for now

LOL

[PG15]

Indeed; my hubris was my downfall, just like all great tyrants.

[PG15]

And the downfall continues. To be fair, Joe was the one who caused my confusion!

PG15 writes: “ Episode 15 = Marty’s pitch, but you’re writing it. You’ve now named it Remnants.
Episode 16 = Very Special Atlantis Episode, Marty’s writing it (and directing it).”

Answer: Why would I be writing Martin’s pitch yet keep the title I came up with for my story? Nope. I’ll be writing my story, Remnants, in the 15 slot. Martin will write and direct his story in the 16 slot.

Commence spoiler restructuring!

EDIT: Ok, here's all the vague spoilers that's supposed to have been in this thread:

Small update:

Speaking of scripts - I’ve finally made some headway on episode #15. Sort of. I’ve expanded the story and included throughlines for three separate characters, an A story mystery, and a B story probationary review.

Update:

I’ve discovered a cure for insomnia! If you’re ever lying wide awake in bed and unable to fall sleep, all you have to do is start thinking about the outline for your upcoming script. I guarantee you’ll be out before the first act break. Amazingly, it seems to work for mid-afternoon naps as well. Yes, the outline is slow going, but I hope to have a rough beat sheet in by end of day Tuesday after which everyone will weigh in and no doubt help me fill in the missing pieces that will send me on my way to script. If I can lock in a structure by early next week, I could probably turn in a first draft before mid-June, leaving my hiatus more or less free and clear for reading, Esperanto lessons, and my beginner’s garroting class.

New update:

Back at the office today. Watched a director’s cut of The Queen and a Day 1 mix of The Seed, dropped by stage 2 where Will was shooting the inserts and missing shots for Whispers, had Bob Picardo drop by the office to say hi and bye enroute to his convention in Italy, chatted with a familiar face from the SG-1 past at the lunch line, beat out the tease and first two acts of the tentatively titled Remnants,

Joe has got me seriously confused with this now - he's completely contradicted himself. He should take pity on poor idiots like me.

[Platschu]

PG15: It seems I was right. But you still make a wonderful job and it wasn't your fault.

[GoSpikey]

Bwahahaha!

Spoiler:

PG got spanked by Joe!

At least, that's what it felt like when I read it in his mailbox a few min ago!

But doing this is hard work, so thanks, PG! *Kissy*

[PG15]

PG15: It seems I was right. But you still make a wonderful job and it wasn't your fault.

That's correct; it wasn't my fault.

We'll see what happens. I pointed out in the comments section that it was his mistake, so I guess I can only expect more retribution?

[Platschu]

He answered simply, so he didn't want to make retribution. The written words can't express his feelings.

[PG15]

Ok, now we're back on track. Update:

But rather than dwell on that sad tale, why don’t I tell you about my no-less-sad though far more monkeyless day. Well, I’m pleased to report I’ve finally completed a very rough beat sheet for Remnants, formerly a “very special Stargate: Atlantis”, now a “not so special Stargate: Atlantis”. However, I’m sure that once the other writers weigh in with their brilliant ideas, it’ll go from “not so special” to “one of passing interest”. So far, I’ve got the word out to a couple of potential guest stars, discussed the look of the mainland, and have been considering some of the more important character moments I want to explore with Sheppard, McKay, and Woolsey.
