Back when Rangers was announced...

Beyond the rim
Well, back when I was watching b5 on Scifi, a thing said "Be in the movie Contest." It was the first talk to Legend of the Rangers. Well, as soon as I saw that, I typed in www.legendoftherangers.com in the little address box thingy. A page came up that said "Under construction" And it said that clear to the showing of the movie and after. Today I tried it again, and it can't find the site. Did anyone else ever try to go there?
 
Unless I'm completely mistaken, wasn't the domain name registered by JMS back then? I don't think there ever was a site with content for it though... I'd guess the name was just registered in case a series had followed.

In any case, the domain name is now available for registration. (I just checked.)
 
I dunno, I never tried that URL but just to nitpick a little here ... the contest was to have a character named after you not to actually be in the movie. /ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif
 
Yes, but it was called, "B5: Be in the Movie Contest" Even though you would only have your name put in at the rank of a Captain.
 
... with the assurance said character would get killed. /ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif I remember that contest ... hell, when I saw the ad I was like "Holy *%#^!!! New B5!" The contest was only secondary. /ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif

I imagine said character was David's CO at the beginning?
 
Ah, that was the infamous Captain Cregg who was killed off in the first minute or so (fortunately, I would say, since the actor seemed kind of wooden).
 
Up for registration?

Ahh, but I still have my vain hopes.

But if a series were to be announced, it would definitely clash with my upcoming fanfic, uh, thing. /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif
 
Rangers Redux.

Or, Channe goes about attempting to answer in a very bad way all the questions that they proposed in the pilot but never actually got around to answering because Sci-Fi never picked up the series.

It's not turning out the way I wanted it to, but it's not that bad.
 
It promises to be interesting. Very interesting, if any of your previous stories (especially the one with the sandwitch /ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif) are to be trusted.

I hope that you will (pretty please) tell us...
...when something nears readyness?
 
Of course. I'm thinking a week or two - but don't quote me on that.

I'm still figuring out the arc.

The fact that you remembered "Spoo and Rye (In Medlab)" is to be commended, especially since I forgot about it entirely and would have been in for a surprise today, did I not locate it on my hard drive last night. /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif
 
channe ... hurry up and write and display this ... keep me from developing my own ideas that have been trying to creep up this past week ... damnit, I have too many stories already and not a fast enough typing speed! /ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif
 
You got it, Loadhan.

*evil grin*

Tomorrow. The first episode. Or as much of it as I've written. I'm still figuring out the arc.

Warning: this will not be great literature. But it will be fun, and I hope, surprising. We'll see. Drum roll please.
 
Ahh, writing again, is ya?

Is that going to be posted on your website?

ps. Get well soon, I just saw the thread about your accident.
 
Hey, Obsessed, good to hear from you!

Yeah. I'm always writing. You can't keep me away from it. If necessary, I will scratch on rocks.

It'll be up on my site, as soon as I can get it running... again.

Thanks. My back still hurts, but I'm spry as a youngster again. Oh, wait, I am a youngster...
 
I've been debating on writing a fanfic that has characters from all 3 B5 areas, Rangers, Crusade, and B5 itself. I am not quite sure where to start and what to have in the story. But if I ever get around to attempting to write it, I will put it up in the fanfic and books forum at my message board. /ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif
 
I'm rationalizing this fanfic (first part is up) by saying that after a while, it won't really be a fanfic, since I have to actually take these characters further than they were delinated in the pilot... hmm...
