People, please comment on this NOW before critizising it when it's gone "official". Don't you think it's a great name? I'm happy.
I'll be more happy when you post how happy you are. Make me happy.
This post is all about happy. I thought I'd give it a little theme there, hope you like it. Happyhappy.

Well i like it, its a little bit of a tounge twister, but i do like it.
I alsoo kinda like:
BDA day.
and
S.A.D
Serenity Appreciation day, which ties in with the thanking universal stuff
Is it just me but the boards gone alfull quite the last day.
So just a small
BUMPing to get more opions.

I found that "Serenity 'Versary" began to roll off the tongue better when I thought about how the words kind of rhyme, and have a bit of rhythm like music.
While the "Big Damn Anniversary" name is fun and we fans immediately understand the connection to one of our favorite quotes... the name of the day also has to appeal to those unfamiliar with Firefly/Serenity. They wouldn't get the "damn" reference, and the word could seriously work against the endeavor when it comes to media attention.

Appreciate the thread bump, thanks.
Think you're right about the board getting quiet. The good news is that a successful compromise was achieved. My guess is that folks may need a breather after all the intensity of the past couple of weeks.
I know that I've been needing to refocus on things in my life that got shoved aside during all the activity here. This could be the case with a lot of other people too. I'm sure that things will pick up again soon... especially when the campaigns start kicking into gear for this Summer!

I like it. Very cool.
Though I keep saying it as "SereniVersary" as opposed to "Serenity 'Versary." Probably because I'm just used to collapsing words like that out of laziness.
"Knew it...probably...saw them cops...and...turned...tail..."
"Can't...sentence...properly."

There's always time for that! I'd better get some sun-bathing in or else I won't be able to be a Browncoat whilst still being nekkid!
Ooh, I'd better be careful not to over do it though, or else I could turn into a purplebelly!

Same with me. When I´m saying it, it sounds like "Sereni....mmmmmblll...University". Try saying "Serenity Adversary" or "Serenity Adversity" and it´ll just come out perfectly. Might as well be the german accent...

A.
The Wizard paused a moment before speaking to focus his eyes, which had recently developed a tendency to cross, and looked gravely at Dildo.
"It is time to talk of the Ring," he said.
"Ring? What ring?" said Dildo.
"Thee knows only too well what Ring," said Goodgulf. "The one in thy pocket, Master Bugger."
"Oooooh, that Ring," said Dildo with a show of innocense, "I thought you meant the ring you leave in my tub after your seances with your rubber duck."

personally I had just avoided the boards during the ... er ... um ... last few weeks....
I respect the compromise... in fact I embrace it!

actually I'm busy arranging my life around 'Serenity Day' (aka Joss' birthday) right now...
because I'll be attending the shindig, followed by the midnight screening, in support of Equality Now,
after I have gone online and bought some extra copies of Firefly & Serenity for friends and family
and some Navy personal who can get stuff like that (go to):

and I just want to add that I LOVE 11th Hour's B&W posters, they look awesome when printed out on bright neon colored paper (plus they save my colored ink cartridge)
I wish there were more of the beautiful Art Gallery Cards:

(those are so beautiful)
And finally, I ordered from 11thhourart at Cafe press for some Christmas presents last year and everyone LOVED them! Thank you!!

PS I am definitely on board for whatever we want to do to celebrate Serenity 'Versary!
