There seems to be a lot of discussion on what the slogan is for Serenity Day, June 23rd.
We have:
One movie.
One day.
One mission.
On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.
and
One day.
One plan.
One army of Browncoats.
On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.
and
One day.
One plan.
One crew of Browncoats.
On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.
and
One Plan
One Day
The Browncoats Unite
June 23
We Aim to Misbehave.
and I've seen slight variations of these. So which is it?
I've made some banners, but the "slogan" seems to keep changing and, as I said, there's discussion as to exactly what it should be. Can we at least agree on it first before we plunge headlong into this?
(At least we agree that we're misbehavin'
)

I still like the last one.
It keeps Browncoats, and keeps the idea of One Plan, without the possible military overtones. And I like saying that we're uniting for a common cause. :)
The first one is good, too, and would be my second choice.

We already are united.
There was also
One day.
One mission.
One army of Browncoats.
On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.
I actually like that better than "plan", and it would get my vote. I just haven't changed mine yet because I don't wanna keep changing it, and I still like it.
The "plan" is better to motivate fellow Browncoats, while the "mission" is better for use outside of the fandom, and I guess the plan is just about to turn into the mission.
But I guess it would be better if we don't argue about what means what and suggests what, but just put our suggestion on here and say which one we like best. No more discussing, just voting and 1 or 2 comments, sorta like I just did without this paragraph. Just so we get somewhere.
Agreed?
EDIT: Oh, and just to make things a wee bit more complicated, how about
On June 23rd, it's time for some thrilling heroics.
Or maybe we could change only the LAST line so it fits the picture it's on. The above being the obvious choice for a pic with Jayne wearing his hat. Kinda long, though. Just a thought.
One day.
One plan.
One army of Browncoats.
On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.

I like the first one to. And also agree that the seconed would also be a good one.
Someday the verse will spit in your soup but at least they gave you soup.
-Our mission as browncoats is to make us known.

How'd we arrive at June 23rd again?
I'm for it, of course, but I missed why then, and not say...May 5th.... or some such.
Just wonderin.
People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss

Joss's birthday and the last pre-screening of Serenity. Also, there's the Serenity Now/Equality Now screenings on that day.
One day.
One plan.
One army of Browncoats.

I am sincerely hoping that the Serenity with all the extra features is released by then because if I buy the DVD without it to support the cause, i won't be able to afford it!
Any reason we are doing this PRIOR to the new DVD being released in the US?
Or are we gonna do it AGAIN with that release?
