Greetings,

I keep noticing this more and more. So many people love this show.

I play an online rpg game, World of Warcraft, in some of my spare time. Recently while preparing to enter a rather involved combat area with a handful of guildmates the Raid Leader does a ready check and I respond:

"Lets be bad guys."

"Hey, lol. I love that you're a Browncoat."

For the next two hours most of the chat, while we utterly destroyed the place, consisted of Firefly quotes.

Turns out all ten of us in the group know and love Firefly and we all thought we were alone in that.

Or, it could be Virginia Tech.

But don't feel too lonely, mal4, I'm not far away from you in Mass.

I don't disagree on any particular point.

Cool, it's good to have someone in the neighborhood!

Virginia tech, I didn't think of that...

The VT stands for Vermont. Quiet little state in New England with a strong independant spirit.

We wear coats here, it's cold. More then a few of them are brown.

We wear goofy, hand-knit hats also, it's really cold.

And we got guns......

The Con in Orlando this month is Firefly and Serenity themed.

I hope some of you guys get a chance to come down

I play WoW on Earthen Ring, mostly.

I have been contemplating giving Eve online a good look.

So far cursory glances make it look like it could help get me a fireflyish (is that a word?) type of fix. Not sure how that game would treat someone just starting out as well as somone not really able to devote huge time.

Welcome VT, pull up a chair. Someone will be along with your official browncoat, and I think our resident chef is somewhere ready to fill your belly with all the protiens of the rainbow.

Till then have something to drink; Mudders Milk; All the carbs and protiens of your mothers best turkey dinner.... plus 15% alchohol.

What is this rpg you speak of? You speak in tongue. Then again I have been hitting the Milk real hard these days welcoming all the newbies. *hic*

Have you gotten a copy of Serenity Role Playing Game (RPG) book? It is shiny. Hardcover. Color pictures from the movie.

I don't RPG. But I got a copy after I got one for my brother. I love the conversations with Malcom Reynolds. Chapter 7 Brief Guide to the 'Verse. Each world/moon listed with information on each. Appendix: Gorram Chinese

I saw two on the shelf at Barnes and Noble recently, if you want to take a look at them.

Hey, VTBrowncoat, you need a browncoat to go along with that shiny name.

*hands VTBrowncoat a regulation browncoat*

There you are. We're glad to have you, looks like the crew has fed you and given you.... fresh rice wine?! We sure have been flush with extra rations and goodies lately. Somewhere on another thread I saw brownies too!

This is home, hope you will come to know it that way too. Welcome!

You got guns?! Good, you're gonna need 'em, holdin' the line with us.

Followmal you can't forget the Mudder's Milk, one must have at least a pint of Mudder's Milk, then you can have the guts to lay around with your favorite someone and talk about hampsters cause they're, you know, nice.

Maybe I should put my pint down. *hic*

Oi, I think I'll be making a hell of a lot of midnight runs, gotta be careful though smuggling it off the planet, last thing I want is to be pinched by the Canton mods. They pinch pretty hard over there.

On the plus side I love happy hour, sitting around and singing about The hero of Canton. You can't help but join in.

Did I ever offer you a pint? Damn me, maybe I'll lessen my intake.
