    See, that I can agree with. Changing the status quo is risky, but it's also a lot of fun if done right. I would definitely not mind seeing others in charge for whatever reason - that's why I didn't state a position to the "Relived of Command?" thing. In the other Young thread (the one with the really long title), I said that it'd be interesting seeing Telford in command for a while, for instance.

    And sure, seeing Rush and Wray in new roles would certainly be a great way to flesh out their characters. We saw the budding interactions Wray had with the Destiny crew in Justice and I would love to see more of that. I agree that Rush is more suited to doing his own thing with the science team, but I think it'd be great if he was forced into command, somehow. Again, push them out of their comfort zones. That's usually good for drama and such.

    I like how this little snarkfest suddenly turned serious and cordial.

                no, no, no...it's the talking first, and then I ask for a headbutt and the Mighty Shiv of Justice from Rush, just to make it all go away

                  Who let these people in?

                  I don't know, it's like you think this show is supposed to be entertainment or something...

The first law is: nobody asks for just one favour; the second request (after the granting of the first favour), prefaced by ‘and can I be really cheeky…?’ is the asking of the second favour. If the aforesaid second request is not granted, the second law ensures that the need for any gratitude for the first favour is nullified, and in accordance with the third law the favour giver has not done any favours at all, and the favour field collapses." - Terry Pratchett.

                    Wow xxxevilgrinxxx I've just noticed what you have written as your signature! I feel honoured.

                    So, erm... will I be getting a royalty cheque in the post?

                        darn skippy!

                        I think we should start a poll. Who everyone thinks should be in command. We have all put in our comments about Young's pro's and con's and also about whether Rush or Wray would do a better job or should be allowed to give it a try.

                        So let's have Destiny Elections!

                        Here are the candidates. And please people, put yourselves in the position of a member of Destiny, civilian or SG personnel. Remember that whoever gets the job will have it for the forseeable future, not just for a day or so and can be replaced whenever. Young will still be available to lead the military on defending the ship, but remember that if he is not in charge then his ability to do this is severely limited from currently because he will be in the position of getting us (the crewmembers) out of trouble rather than preventing us from getting into it. We know more than the Destineers because we have the all seeing eye of the viewer, so we can make an informed decision.

                        When you have chosen who you want to lead us, say their name and increase the number next to it by 1, so that it is easy to see how many votes people have. Or if you prefer, reply quote the bullet points I have put below and increase the number of your candidate. One vote each guys! And remember, this is to last, so think about it cos there will likely not be the opportunity to change your mind:
                        • Col Everett Young
                        • Dr Nicholas Rush
                        • Camille Wray
                        • Lt Matthew Scott
                        • Eli Wallace
                        • Lt Tamara Johanson
                        • Col David Telford

                                I thought about that, but I always go to the end of a post I am subscribed to (or rather the first unread post) and so wouldn't want to check the top every time. I also thought about starting a new thread for the poll but I decided that those who had already been discussing this topic would have had the opportunity to really think about and listen to the various arguements, and could therefore make a more informed decision. But hey if the majority wants to do that I will go baaa (like a sheep).
