Just wait...Spoiler:the demon spawn love child will also be Chinese and hand the gate over to China.... [claps hands over mouth] OMG I wasn't sposed to give away the plot [/snark]
Originally posted by minigeekSpeaking of those two nations - holy hannah on the foreshadowing commentary by the Chinese delegate, huh? I guess that plot's already in the making. But I hope they don't try and turn it into a surprise. Because if *we* got the gist of what she meant when she said (what she did) to Daniel, I think he would have too, and he'd have warned Landry the second they debriefed after the emergency was over, imho.sigpic

Originally posted by Agent_DarkActually, I saw a pretty good explanation as to why they had pistols rather than zats in the episode thread. Basically had to do with not wanting to give the Chinese (and possibly the French) representative an eyeful of advanced alien technology. It even works with the distrust thing they have going on between the Chinese and American governments over the Stargate.

Originally posted by DEMIf I understand you correctly, we mostly agree. I didn't think she thought the advisors would get in trouble necessarily; rather I thought Carter recognised that someone needed to remain because safeguarding them was SG-1's mission. So, seeing as Cam had trotted off without so much as a by-your-leave, Carter stepped up and did her duty -- painful as it may have been.

Sam/Amanda have been a wonderful rolemodel for me too through my teenage years. Please join in the discussions and most importantly, have fun.
If you're interested, on page one of this thread at the bottom of MajorSal's post there is a link to the SaGC index, where you will find the Reader's Digest version of this thread. But don't feel that you have to read back.

Originally posted by minigeekYes, essentially moving Samanda away from this thread... that's sort of what I meant.
It would have to be.
I think trying to keep unbendable stricture on topic never works.While, in theory, it looks good and organized on paper (so does Communism), in reality people are people, we form communities, we chatter, we aren't robots and we don't fall into neat little patterns the way forums are structured. That's why there are moderators in place.
Even so, given we're not discussing world-altering seriousness here, I'd vote to either move Samanda to a new thread and leave the Sam Carter Character thread as a Sam Carter Character thread OR... I'd vote to keep it all here and just let it be. We fall off topic, we're nudged back on, either by Skydiver or by some other vigilant soul, no one ever minds that (at least I haven't seen it happen).
The more fragments we break off from the whole, the more we'll notice a fracturing of the community. That's inevitable, which is why I'd be reticent to jump into this, unless there was a really big rift in idealism that necessitated two seperate forum discussion groups.
This thread has been home to the SaGC thread *and* Samanda, quite happily, for a very long time. I apologize if I'm a bit dense in this, but I don't really understand what the problem is now that's any worse than it ever was before? Or maybe I just don't get it?This is my favorite place in the whole forum. The people here are smart, talented and kind beyond words. The majority of the posts are very interesting and on topic. If the posts are OT and I'm not interested, I speed read through them.
I don't want to have to find another happy place!!!!!!!

Originally posted by ÜberSG-1FanI respectfully and humbly agree with Strix here.
We are a community bound by our love for the fictional character Samantha Carter and our respect and adoration for the very real, gracious and delightful Amanda Tapping.
I come HERE. When I've had a crappy set of days where works falling in on me, this is my happy place. This is Samanda in all its glory...with its wide variety of people with their different backgrounds, interests, careers and personalities. This is where I come to be amongst friends and family.
So sure there is the occasional this or that. Heck I mentioned Passions airing on SciFi for crying out loud. It is moderately related though if you think about it since it's further indication into the mindset that makes the decisions on the network level. But as long as we don't spend pages talking about the latest contestants on American Idol or wonder if Donald Trump's hair can remain completely still for yet another season, I don't mind a bit of off topic chatter.
So again, I respectfully agree with Strix and let's keep it here!
But that is the selfish part of me.
People have expressed their dislike for wading through lots of Off Topic posts. I don't want to make it hard for those people, so as a result I would restrict myself from chatting off topic so much that I would no longer have anything to talk about, and would probably disappear until season9 airs. I don't really want to disappear, but I would feel bad about posting in the thread if I couldn't come up with something on topic.
So therefore I support Lys in having started up an off topic thread. I will of course first and formost post here, and that should be possible for me if people feel like discussing earlier eps such as the Tin Man.
Otherwise, now I can attempt to keep the majority of my general posts in the Blue Jello Corner.
And apologies for this OT post. Last one, I promise.
