Okay, maybe it is just me, but there seems to be a lot more focus & debate on wording and sigs than anything else right now. I know we need to be unified in our slogans and all, but are we losing sight of what we are trying to do?

looks like!
in the best possible way, of course. at least everyone's arguing over related details!

on another note, any browncoats in the Perth area of WA who want to organise a screening/shindig/flyer campaign, me = willing collaborator

We could be, Browncoat1, but I don't think so at this point still.

There is so much debate because we ARE Browncoats I think... we're an ornery bunch, given to thinking our own way. Which under normal circumstances is a good thing.. but this is a time for coming together. We need to decide on this slogans and this name for this day and get on with it. I for one have looked at the task I have in front of me and it is a mighty big task, and I want to do it right... because I want my shiny ship and crew to come back to us all and I want to do right by my fellow Browncoats.

I've stayed out of the debate so far, not wanting to muddy the waters further, waiting until I saw some consesus... instead I've seen increasing measures of non-love on the board.. and that's not usual for this place... this is one of the friendliest places I know. Sadly, the last week, it's grown a little strained. Now, I know the process is always hard... but it's been some time now... I think it's time to come together behind the folks doing the leading and get busy.

There has been much debate about the "army of Browncoats" part of the sig. I am so proud to be a member of "the army of Browncoats". We took the name from the army that Mal fought so bravely with. Joss named them that. This gives us a feeling of unity and being a part of a brave fight. We use the military analogies around here all the time, with our encouragement to each other to hold the line, and to stand firm. I think it's appropriate to continue this. It unifies us when we have to do a "mission" like this. For that is what it is... a mission. The plan has been hatched, we need to start the mission stage.

Well, I've gone on long enough, I think I've made my 2 cents clear...

I am behind the leaders of this mission with all my strength and my heart. I am also in support of the use of the sig that says

One day
One mission
One army of Browncoats

On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave!

I also think that fireflyday has won with a resounding victory in the votes, much to my dismay as a matter of fact.. as I thought it ought to be tied to the movie and to our beloved ship's name. But I will go with the vote.

So I've written a book here. Didn't mean to, but thought I ought to mix in this too.









One day.
One mission.
One army of Browncoats.

On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave!

Wasn't FireflyDay disqualified because it was taken, and it's in December?
All this slogan fuzz is making me confused.


One day.
One mission.

Y'all been busy over the weekend! Just found this thread.

*ahem* "I solemnly swear to spend a ton of money on officially licensed Serenifly goods, especially the BDM, on June 23. I further swear that I will give away all such goods purchased on said date to either friends or friendly strangers, with an explanation of what we are trying to accomplish and how much their participation will be appreciated.*

Welcome aboard oldfogey, glad to have you with us. Numbers are very important to what we are trying to do here, probably the most important thing. We just have to keep the signal up and running and this will be a success.


One day.
One plan.
One army of Browncoats.

On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.
