sounds like fun, cause there's a Verse out there for the takin.

only caught a few episodes when it first came out on TV because 1) they kept getting played at different times or interrupted for weeks before the next episdoe was shown and 2) didn;t seem to be shown in any sort of order that made sense (i think i saw Saffron's RETURN episode before i saw her first appearance). then bought Serenity when it came out, friend let me borrow the oginal series to watch in order then went out to buy it myself.

I do love Clan Wolf, even the ones who have been a might off since they were dropped on their heads as young-ins.

I'm not yet sure how the Clan/House/Mercenary Organization/Guild/Friends List/Etc structure will pan out in MWO, but I would love to be a part of the Firefly tradition. "We do a job. We get paid."

This may not be the Alliance, but when has a browncoat ever turned down a good war?
Seeking fans of the Firefly 'verse, if any are to be found.


No power in the 'verse can stop me! Just check out my "handle." Btw, we're I unwed, I would take Christina Hendricks in a manly fashion...because she's pretty.

Still can't believe that no other network picked it up.

I think Joss Whedon has the rights to Firefly if they could ever get it picked up again. Nathan already said he would be Malcom Reynolds again.

Firefly was a great show. To bad Fox was stupid enough to put it up against Stargate SG-1 and the final season of Farscape. Might have lasted longer otherwise...

Actually, 20th Century Fox owns the rights to Firefly.

And I would've brought enough grenades for everyone, but Cap'n said he didn't want 'em.

I think the best bet would be to release Firefly novels and have original actors read their parts for the audio books. Nathan would play Cap'n Mal again, but he couldn't vouch for the other actors and actresses. Also, Joss Whedon has announced that he has, regrettably, moved on. He may be convinced to write novels, and he has already given his blessing to other authors. However, A couple other movies and an MMO, like "Privateer" or whatnot, would be EPIC!!!

Not sure if any of you watch Castle, but there was a Halloween episode where Fillion was in a costume very much like Mal's.

well i do recall they made Joss redo the series openner because the Fox folk didn;t think the crew (or maybe just Mal) looked "heroic" enough when dealing with the bad guys or something in his initial premier episode. and things went downhill from there.

edit- thought i toss in the "Ballad of Mechwarrior Online"

Take my love, Take my land.
Take me where my Mech can't stand.

I don;t care, i'm still free,
you can't take my Mech from me.

Take me out to the black,
Tell them i ain't coming back.

Burn the land and boil the sea,
Plenty of heat sinks here for me.

There's no place that i can be,
Since i found the Periphery.

You can't take my Mech from me.

Tanar, you in your mech can both burn land and boil sea.

And Naglinator, **said with a smile** Let us meet as men of honor on the field. Not as enemies, or rivals. But as warriors.
Not to say I won't trade bullets with you, that I will do, but we'll do it without the mocking ridicule of amateurs.

Well I will, anyway.

Welcome to the Independents, one and all. Glad to have you!
Our door is open to all and sundry. Most owing to the fact that it's still on the blink...
But come on in anyhow!

Loved the Firefly series! Decided to work on a logo. Got the idea off of Geaux Tiger's sig.

Top part says "We will rise again" in chinese. Doesn't look to good with the forums dark background so click it to see it with the white.

http://i.imgur.com/HyvYn.png link to the bigger version.

Personally I think the black on gray looks pretty good, though I suppose you could always go with a black backing and a goldish font if you wanted it to show up in the forums better. Also a dark blue or black star probably would look better and be closer to the actual prop insignia, or at least a darker shade of brown.

Can everyone else post on the HQ forums? It won't let me type anything, which is why I havn't been updating the News thread. If anyone else has had it and managed to fix it, how?
