So Creation's "final salute to Stargate" is this weekend in Chicago (Friday 8/14 to Sunday 8/16).  Who all is going?  I know a few of us are, but if anyone is interested in getting together or such, please let's discuss!

Picking up the meme started by sixtail: 100things That Are Canon About Specialist Ronon Dex. Please come add to the list!

For one of the current challenges at stargateland, we have to create a manifesto for our favourite Stargate pairing. I chose McKay and Sheppard. It's possible that I got a little carried away. The post is long. And very heavy on pictures ( Read more... )

So, I've decided to start a discussion on a topic I usually wouldn't touch with a pole at least as long as the Milky Way is distant from Pegasus-the Tau'ri and Atlantis's diplomatic standing with Pegasus's indigenous cultures.

Representing SGA fandom are John, Rodney, Teyla & Ronon.

If you want either, or all of them, to progress to the next round go here and cast your votes.

Thank you for your time.

Hi! So the "Were you looking for that story where?" post went from under 20 to close to 50 entries over the last few weeks, and I'd like your help.
