Battlestar Fan Club

Posted by Shawn O'Donnell on February 20, 2011 at 1:13pm

I want to thank Dan Allen for giving me such a warm welcome back. Thanks Dan!

I think I mentioned in my email to everyone that I've been on a ship of light for the last two years or so & while the actual reasons are a lot duller than that, I think I'll just stick to the ship of light story.

Suffice to say that I am indeed back & ready to face the challenges that we will make for ourselves together.

I also want to second Dan's welcome of Jack Stauffer (Bojay from the original series) but also to welcome Terry Carter (the original Colonel Tigh from the original series).

Both of these gentlemen are wonderfully talented & great guys.

Speaking of challenges, since the site's reconstruction our first challenge has & will remain rebuilding membership.

So here is an incentive to all of you, your mission: Create your own Battlestar!

While we will roll the program out officially on March 1, 2011 with more details, the criteria is simple: to qualify for Battlestar status you must recruit 25 people that we can verify & you get to name your Battlestar, appoint your officers, get your own forum & design your own patch.

Each Battlestar will serve as a local chapter of the Fan Club.

Simple!

The various Battlestars will be empowered to go to local conventions, set up tables, recruit new members (there is no size limit to your crew), do community events & show everyone what Battlestar Galactica fans are all about.

So start revving up your engines, we have a plan!

May the Lords of Kobol bless our mission!

So say we all!

    Hi Shawn

    Regarding Terry Carter, has he joined the club? Is there an official place to welcome him?

    Hello Mikhaila, nice to meet you...I'm one of the founders of the club way back in '99. I've known Richard since then as a matter of fact, you are lucky to get him. Since I do have contact with much of the original cast I would be more than happy to facilitate any communications if they Cyphan has any issues. If so, please message me on site.

    And though I don't know you, Shawn- Welcome back. :-)

    Very intereresting idea. I'd like to see how this forms.

    I have a FAB convention I'm helping to  promote and hopefully I can get some help or suggestions.

    It's in the Chicago- area, called Cyphan. Very BSG heavy and best of all with guest Richard Hatch!

    ( I think their trying for some original members as well. ) SO SAY we all!

    Do you mean the forums themselves? If that is the question, I believe once each Battlestar has met with approval they themselves should be able to create their own forum.
