Had this same problem myself, but figured something out that might help some of you. Just right-click on the white and choose "Open This Link" (or something to that effect. It could have something to do with a pop-up blocker or something. And you can't be a dimwit, Marc. Geez...just think...

Thanks, guys. Interesting commentary there, LOAF. I didn't realize things like this were so prominent...kind of confuses things. And to think, here I am trying to be anal-retentive as possible to keep my facts straight! :) Quarto, thanks for your advice. Sounds good to me. At the very...

Geez...that makes it clear... :rolleyes: So is one favored over the other as more authentic and reliable? Or are they (somewhat) interchangeable? Or does "Daniel" mean the same thing in some Border World dialect that "Eugene" means in some Confederation dialect? :) Sorry to...

Random question based on the first few posts of the thread: Is Wilford's first name "Daniel?" In the encyclopedia on the site, it lists his first name as "Eugene." Just wondering if that's something the encyclopedia is off on. - FireFalcon ~};^

Thanks, criticalmass. No worries...I'm not trying to make any kind of written porno or some lengthy battle with bajillions of ships (mind you, those battles are in there, but I try to condense them as much as possible). In some ways, I'm getting a little hung up because I'm trying to move the...

Heya, Dahan. I just wanted to post here as a follow-up to your referencing of this thread in some Nephilim post we were going back and forth on last week. First off, I have to say this strikes me as a fantastic idea if you guys can pull it off! It's awesome to see the fan activity in the...

Yepper...though I think we were given the impression that (at best) the treatment only limited the spread of the infection, and required multiple (infinite?) treatments. To my knowledge, we're never given any evidence of any kind of cure...only this Iron Maiden treatment which doesn't sound too...

Could anyone elaborate on that idea? What about Cavazos gave off that impression? (Ironically, he IS a guy with a bit of "an agenda" in my follow-up story, so I'd be curious if there's any evidence or impressions people got off the character that makes them think he's into some kind of shady...

Good discussion, guys. Just a few points I'd like to share my own thoughts on...(of course, bear in mind that I'm just a tad bias with this discussion considering the idea I've formulated into my head for the current fan fiction story I'm working on): I agree with you, LOAF, that when the...

Ehhh like I said - afraid of bruising my own ego too soon, Ice. Best to get it done, then put up the whole thing for anyone who wants to read it. Besides, I'm only up to 150 pages in Microsoft Word at 10-point font; I barely have anything to share, darn it! ;) When it's done, I'll definitely...

Still working on my own little bit of fan fiction in a three-part set (trilogy thingeemabob) in my alternative FireFalcon's Take on the Future WC Universe following the events of Prophecy and Secret Ops picking up where things left off with a long list of known characters we all love and a...

Heh, Ed. :) Took me a second to realize that was a throw back to the topic title. Funny commentary, man. :) I like the topic, G Man. In hindsight, I suppose there were other things they could have tried with the cast of Wing Commander to make it work a bit more smoothly, but I (like at...

I think I'd have to agree with LOAF on the plausible cause of Amazon's visitors' tie-in between Forstchen and literature perhaps appealing more to Republicans. For me personally, I'm definitely a Wing Commander fan, but strictly in movie and game media format (haven't read any of the books...

*reads through the forum thread* Wow...heck of a discussion. I, like LOAF and many of the others here, like tying the movie into the whole Wing Commander Universe. While it's true that it has its slight quirks or incongruencies that can, will, and (most importantly) have been argued by some...

I'm with KrisV here. I have an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro as well as Doom 3, Half-Life 2, Far Cry, etc.; no slow-downs, running in max detail. I also own other graphics and memory hogs in the form of SOE MMORPGs (Planetside, Star Wars Galaxies, and the Matrix Online). Either nothing slows down or...

Interesting topic here, Monsterfurby, and one I myself have considered, especially after playing WC4 after Prophecy...even if Tolwyn was referring to races like the Mantu at the end, it still seemed almost foreboding of what was to come in Prophecy. As for Tolwyn himself, I could take him or...

You guys are (as always) right...this time about the whole Angel name thing, so sorry for bringing it up. I could point out, though, that that serves as another minor flaw of the Wing Commander movie...the fact that if you're not a fan and just some joe shmoe watching it, you'd think her name...

As is always the case, you would know better than me in all matters Wing Commander, LOAF. :) I don't have any tangible evidence to back up this claim...only that I don't believe we hear or see the word "Jeanette" once in the movie that refers to Angel. Even Blair continues to call her "Angel."...

Fun and innocent enough topic here that I figured I'd share my reactions to the movie: All in all, I liked the Wing Commander movie and always have. Sure, trying to get all of its little nuances to fit into the game series, or "canon" on the subject, can be a little ugly (from Angel's name...

OK..this will be my last post here (in this thread)...let me preface it by saying that nothing below here is intended as a last-second sucker punch. I'm just hoping to clarify my stance so I can leave here feeling like I gave it one last shot to explain my position relative to your guys'...and...
