Please let me offer you an Irish whiskey to sip while ya wait for FollowMal, who's a wee bit busy these days. She's organizing our Summer of Serenity campaign. If ya want to find out more about that, head for the 'Browncoat Events' discussion area.

I will certainly do that! Thanks for the welcome and the Irish Whiskey. Considering I am half irish, the whiskey is the perfect thing to hit the spot!

I've been lurking here for awhile also, saw close the community was and just didn't really know how to jump into things..guess I can start with how I came to love Firefly and Serenity, I remember seeing the ads for Firefly before it debuted but I was in high school at the time and being home on any night for that matter seemed impossible so I didn't get to see it on its original tv run.

Eventually saw that dvds were available but never really had the money available to purchase the set, even though I was interested in watching, caught word of Serenity coming out on the internet I believe and thought I recognized the actors in it, then put 2 and 2 together and realized it was a continuation of Firefly..

Went out the next day bought the dvd set, watched in all the way through, thought it was an amazing series and couldn't believe that it was able to take off..Started lurking around the different firefly/serenity boards, really getting alot of info about everything...

Saw Serenity 4 times in theaters bringing different people with me each time, own the dvd, seems like I watch it once a week...Recently started watching the dvd set again and just decided to finally hop on here and make a post..So hello to everyone here and I look forward to posting more..

Thanks RMMC!

My e-mail notification stopped working quite a while ago so it's a bit hard for me to keep up with the number of threads in the main section. I don't really have much to add most of the time but I enjoy ghosting.

There's actually quite a few FFFn old-timers over in the RWED. We've been carrying on variants of the same discussion for coming up on two years now (the decision back in 2004 to split RWED threads into their own section was a really really really good one, we get a mite testy at times ).

I have a question...

I'm interested in participating in this thread:

But I don't quite know what to do...are we just telling the story in turn? Are we playing roles...???

it's kind of an RPG but minus all the frustrating dice rolls

we're just there to have fun, and we'd be happy to have you, but I would suggest you read some of the backstory first (to avoid sub-plots that don't fit the continuity) so, see you onboard Serenity

I'm so into Firefly, my butt glows in the dark.

RMMC thanks for the warm welcome.

Our unit doc was telling me about his mission to “convert folks to Firefly/Serenity” and I asked him if I could borrow his DVD. He gladly gave it over and that was the beginning of the end for ol’ Pell. Doc is crazy by the way but that is how I like my friends, makes life loads laughier!

Thanks also to Floralbunny. See you round about.

Whoa. Nice Whiskey. *sip, sip* *sip again* Mmmmm.

Nice welcome too! To be honest, I'm not sure why I waited to de-lurk, but here I am. I guess I am in need to participating in an active, welcoming community of Firefly / Serenity lovers.

Since I've mostly been lurking lately, I have a question: what happened to the other forum: serenity.browncoats.org?

Cheers to everyone wearing brown!

Well, lesse... I've been lurking around here for a few months. Since about March, I think. Joined up in May. We don't have cable. (I know *gasp*) So, we missed Firefly entirely.

But we (the husband and I) are huge Sci-fi fans. (Our 9 month old son is named Anakin. LOL) And we'll give almost anything sci-fi related a try. So when we saw previews for the BDM we thought it was wicked cool!

We ended up not being able to see it in theatres, but rented it the week that it went to DVD. And I believe we bought the box set of Firefly about 2 weeks later. It took us that long to find it here. (We live in a somewhat small town in the foothills of the NC mountains.) We watched it straight for four days and I wanted to cry when it was over 'cause I knew there wouldn't be any more.

I've been re-watching a lot of the episodes lately. I see something new everytime. Plus I've developed an unhealthy obsession for all things Jayne and Jaylee. The Bule Sun Room is my friend. LOL
