HAKEN
For those requesting that donations be made through PayPal, beginning Monday I'll have a button for that. Also in the works are photolog/moblog for members and the start of a RPG management system ...
FOFFILMS
All I can say is I did a stupid thing with my computer, trying to do a little techie geek upgrade crap and I ended up having to reformat my C drive for the effort and in the process lost all my textures ...
RANGER
Firefly Traveller- Science Fiction Adventure in the (not so) Far Future The first time I watched Firefly I felt like I was watching a Traveller adventure unfold. The Firefly ‘verse has that gritty ...
SUCCATASH
It's true. Tonight I recorded a live conversation I had with a girl and maybe I'll get lucky. I plan on posting part 2 soon. To better understand what I'm talking about, please download this 2 MB ...
Where does Firefly Traveller take place? Okay, based on previous assumptions, I am going to locate the Firefly ‘verse in near earth space. This is the only collection of star systems close enough ...
DRACOS
What are they used for, alternative power to reduce strain on the engines? And why do they only apear on one side of the ship? Maybe the Alliance requires all vessels to fly in a clockwise orientation ...
WERZBOWSKI
So I have this custom avatar icon I want to use and I've emailed it to Haken. Where do I go from here? I'm not so much with the patience thing and Haken is admittedly a very busy person... :crap: So ...
KOZURE
Well, this is it. I've dived into the deep end, swallowed the red pill and jumped down the rabbit hole. Or, in a more appropriate metaphor, I've packed up my bags and climbed on board [i]Serenity[/i]. To ...
A few major successes last night were coupled with some minor setbacks. Most exciting was contacting gaidheal by e-mail to ask permission to use his fabulous deck plans as part of the main game-board. ...
BROWNCOATCAT
...when you see the train you are supposed to be on sail out of the station 1 minute early, and you swear at it in Mandarin.
PUMAMANREDUX
Well ... Its been days since I started my last blog The Role Playing by forum game I got myself into is slowly taking shape ... geting a wee bit frustrated over not getting just feedback on the ...
I thought I was ready to move on to the next stage of the project, but I realized that there were still some things rattling around that need to be tied down before I did. So, we have travel times ...
REDJACK
I didn't want to watch FIREFLY. The idea of using American Reconstruction as the backdrop for a scifi series was, I thought, a dicey proposition at best. The Civil War is ongoing in many quarters and, ...
Firefly Prayer
From 2004 to 2517… The first bit Once again, we have to make some assumptions. This time it’s about technology and how fast we will progress. Traveller has a pretty well defined set of Technology ...

CHANNAIN
"Why do you watch Firefly?" I’ve been asked this question more than once, most recently by a fellow browncoat in England who was trying to convert a painfully skeptical friend. My answers were all ...
I was recently in a conversation with person who regarded "Firefly" as something she scraped off the bottom of her shoe because it was a TV series. I love all science fiction, no matter what form it ...
I was recently on the website for the big video rental chain up here in Ontario, Canada. I was checking for the availability of a recommended Adam Baldwin movie, by searching the actors name. In ...
I have always loved the design of the Alliance ships like the IAV Dortmunder. Cities in space that just bristle with power. I never understood why the Star Destroyers in [i]Star Wars[/i] needed to be ...
Well, the game continues apace: [b]Rules:[/b]
Well, it’s been a few days since I started this and I guess it’s time to make a couple of observations and suggestions on the project. The reason I started this as a blog instead of a discussion ...
Well - after a scarey computer crash and several explitives later I am back up and running. Many thanks - ONCE AGAIN - to Biotech for resending his A+++ model I had to retexture, and ME THINKS ME ...
ZERN
Greetings & Salutations, I've been procrastinating becoming a member of fireflyfans, but have finally done so. I'm just tired of there not being anything new for Firefly itself. I picked up the series ...
EMOPIRATE05
Alright, this isn't really FF related but I figured why not talk about it here. I just saw Underworld and I have to say, I [i]loved[/i] it! I thought the Matrix-esk elements were very cool and pretty ...
CAPNRAHN
I have been asked (in various ways): "Why are doing a spin-off of Firefly concerning the Alliance, aren't they the bad guys?" The end of that question aptly illustrates my VERY reason for 'going ...
For anyone who missed the thread in General discussions - a board game based on Firefly... [b]Rules:[/b]
An English teacher friend of mine recently asked me to take htree days and teach her High-school Creative Writing class about Sci-fi. Like an idiot I accepted.:crap: Now Im stuck doing this next ...
I was going to keep plugging away at the backstory but I think we have enough base in technology and history to work on game mechanics for a bit. I think you need a base of tech and story to do the mechanics ...
SUENOS
Hey all, Long time no blog, I know. Things just kind of took off after the holidays and its taken some time to get back in the groove. During the time I’ve been on the road I’ve seen Dean self-destruct, ...
Gorramit it's been a long week! I had a FF moment in Chemistry today and I thought I'd share with you guys. I figured you'd see where I was coming from. I had to do this science fair project and we got ...
TEELABROWN
Holiday wishes, or something. Since I'm volunteering today, I really have no one to spend it with. I'm humoring a friend, but it's not a true date. So, everyone here who is alone, I'll try to be here. ...
NESS
I don't get why the WB wouldn't renew Angel. So ratings may have dropped, but that doesn't mean they should cancel it or whatever. Their decision doesn't just effect American viewers, but the rest of ...
GUNRUNNER
Well today was the day I FINALLY got to take a little trip out to the black errr Best Buy and get my self a Firefly DVD set! I found it tucked away on a half empty shelf.... the last one, AND ITS MINE ...
SERENA
I lent my friend the first DVD and tried to encourage her to watch it without sounding like a psychotic maniac. She had the DVD for a week and didn't find time to watch it, so I continued to enthuse ...
KRYSTOPHER
It's been a week since I got the Firefly Box Set. It was the last one on the shelf... I love getting good grades, my dad paid for the whole thing himself. President's day is cool, no school. I convinced ...
Another headache, blah. School was decent, had a sub in science (Bio) which made it that much harder... I think out of the cd's I got yesterday my fav has to be Toxicity by System of a Down... *shrugs* Out ...
Got my friend to watch it, and he fell in love with it. Yay! So, I have the rest of the world to convert. Um, rather big job. Oh, well. I'm trying.
Okay I just re-watched Safe. I love the dance scene but my absolute fav part would have to be when River steals the roll off of Jayne's plate. She doesn't even do it fast like, she's just slowly reaches ...
HOTPOINT
Hi All, I find myself slightly conflicted today because my distaste for any television company owned by Rupert Murdoch is clashing with my overarching egomania. Ordinarily I baulk at the idea of giving ...
One good thing about today, I got out of half a day of school. Reason: dentist. Blah. Anyway... I have Aikido later today. For those of you who are saying 'Ai-what?' it's a form of Karate... sorta... The ...
Apparently it is a day for appointments, or routine maintence as I like to call it. I always feel like the proverbial blind bat when I go to the optometrist. They take your contacts (well, technically ...
SPAGHETTI
i am now SUFFERING serious FireFly withdrawl! i bought 3 copies from Amazon, gave 2 away, and selfishly kept the 3rd from myself. Watched it end to end 5 - 6 times. Now i'm loaning it out to my friends ...
Oh god, bad day. Before I can tell this story you have to understand how my mind works. I have to do everything 'perfect' I have to be 'correct' if not the first time then the second time. I can't forget ...
Well as noted in at least one of my prior logs I had gotten stuck at [b]Out of Gas[/b] and had jumped ahead and watched [b]The Message[/b]. Today I finally watched [b]Ariel[/b] and [b]War Stories[/b] ...
Finished my teaching gig yesterday. Went pretty well. Had to throw around some subtle sarcastic insults and shout "silence" a few times (much more effective than "be quiet" or "shut up") but it was fine. ...
Alrighty then, I rewatched 'Serenity' (fourth time) and I noticed a couple of things. One, River has to be close to, if not past, her seventeenth birthday. Two that moment between Mal and Inara when he ...
EBONEZER
I hate men. There just too damn attractive and taken and nice. I was depressed and this guy talked me into telling him that i like him (even though he has a girlfriend and there are a million ...
I'm now at Serena@BrownCoats.com You too can have a BrownCoats address -
I took a walk around Media Play today and I spotted 6 copies of Firefly for 5 dollars more than what I purchased it for at Best Buy located 2 miles down the road, Best Buy's Firefly shelf was emptied ...
In the event that you've missed my blog entries or the short-lived thread, I'm developing a board game based on Firefly. ... Well, it's finally done and I had a chance to playtest it with friends this ...

Well, he will be on DVD 3, when he gets it from me tomorrow. He loves "The Hero of Canton" aka "Jayne's Song". He sang it any chance he could today. His favorite episode (And in his opinion, the funniest) ...
An old college buddy of mine came to visit recently. There was a terrible winter storm, so we couldn't do much, but he was about to leave soon and catch a plane back home, weather permitting. I tried ...
Well I had to go back to the eye doc's today. We had just gone not even three months (right before X-mas) and I told him that my right scrip was what I was using in my left eye. So we did the exam and ...
METROPOLIS
My roommate turned on "24" and I was amazed to see Gina Torres on the screen. As I am not a fan of the show (how much can happen to one guy in a three day period before he goes completely insane?) I had ...
Last night there was noting on so I watch this biography of John Wayne. Well they show this scene from one of his movies where he is walking to confront someone and this person behind him draws his pistol. ...
I've been editing some pictures and making icons using Print Shop 8. (I decided to try the ol' trial version when none of my friends would make an icon for me *shrug*) Anyhow, some of the icons I made ...
A friend of mine that I haven't seen for about a year is in town visiting this week. He'd never seen Firefly before, just heard about it from the emails I send him. He comes over last night for a get ...
I want a square bed, with square sheets and a square blanket. I want to toss and turn at night. I don't want to wake up with cold feet because my blanket is turned sideways.
ASTRIANA
Okay, so I've been reading and posting to the site for a bit now, but I never really thought I had a reason to do a blog until now. A friend of mine celebrated his 47th birthday last night. We took ...
