still part way through season 2 in the UK. I'm sad its ending coz season 2 so far has been good. Still think it took too long to establish parameters in the first season, probs why people gave up on it.

I mean taking a season and a bit to discover the bridge? hello!!!

I agree, this was one of my favorite sci-fi series of all time... I liked that it was dark and gritty. One of the things that always annoyed me about SG-1 and SGA was that they cheated too much with all their advanced technology but still tried to pull-off the "modern day" Earth.

(On a side note: I liked Chloe a lot more in the second season.)

Thanks for the heads up!

I took a closer look at that grid square and if you follow it back in the general direction of Earth you will find Azati (where the large weapon was built; "Azati Prime" ENT-318), Triannon (the crazy religious zealots; "Chosen Realm" ENT-312), and Xindus (the original destroyed homeworld; "The Xindi" ENT-301).

So, I'm convinced now that this is the right neighborhood. Since Gamma Orionis is "Borg Space" in-game, what does that do as far as mission accessibility for lower level players if a Foundry Mission is created in that area?

I'd suggest using a paint thinner product (not a paint stripper) and apply it carefully and only to the unwanted layer of paint, maybe using q-tips. This should allow you to remove one layer of paint at a time without damaging the layer beneath too badly. I'd do this as soon as possible to reduce the staining or discolouration of the paint beneath. You will still need to do some restoration to the original paint layer, but this method should not damage the plastic model.


Thanks guys...Zepari, I'm tempted to try that but I REALLY don't want to damage the original paint :(

Re: Doctor Who?...

I'm liking it. :)

It does feel a bit "up itself" sometimes and like it's trying too hard... the "Bad Wolf" stuff from a while back was at least noticeable, but they just did exactly the same thing on a smaller scale with "Silence" - not quite as epic and just a bit pointless!

You can't really complain about plot holes in Dr. Who... it's been riddled with holes for at least the last 4 seasons! I can think of about 20 for the last 3 episodes! :laugh:

It's got some good ideas tho. I like the new doc (needs his Fez back), I like the "living lives back to front" thing, and the last (pirate) episode was "Classic Who" (to quote my ex).

There's rumour this might be the first series ever made without Daleks.. not sure how I feel about that :(

I'm guessing Eyepatch woman is a midwife that delivered/delivers Amy's (half-timelord?) daughter. That'll obviously be the thread holding the series together - will be interesting to see how it ends up!

How are you all finding the series so far then?

I think the first two were some of the strongest episodes since the reboot - the second episode in particular had a great mix of drama, comedy and horror. Everything in the orphanage was sheer brilliance, especially Amy seeing herself reflected in the glass. I was totally on the edge of my seat!

The pirates episode was OK but nothing special - riddled with plot holes and inconsistencies, and do we really need another 'Rory dies then comes back' bit?

Now... what do we make of eyepatch woman? :blink:

According to STOwiki it's Humans, but this is subjective, and not a hard and fast rule. I like my Caitian, but didn't grab the lunge as I'm more of a space player - really I just wanted a cat.

I for one am sad to see the series ending, and all the movies scraped :( Enjoyed SGU more than SG1 and Atlantis.

Here's hoping for a reboot in a couple years time.

Stargate Universe Series Finale

May 10 2011
Yestarday, SGU's Series Finale aired.

It was an all and all decent ending. At least it wasn't a cliff hanger like Atlantis was, but in the end it was an ending. I'm rather sad to see it go. I think the storylines and episodes in the second season where some of the best Stargate, nay, best sci-fi I've ever seen. Based on the first season, I wasn't surprised they decided to cancel it, but the show really matured in the second season. I have hopes for a tv movie that finishes out the storyline, but I doubt that'll ever happen; it didn't even happen for Atlantis.

So what did you all think of it?
