Well said FM.

I've been out in the black and just gettin back to the verse. Started reading' up on this 'nitiative yesterday (on the old thread) and continued to this one today. And for the most part there are warm and fuzzies abounding, although the not so warm and fuzzies that exist are jarring. We're all on the same track, just some is stubbing toes while walking on the ties!

That being said, we are the army of browncoats. There are upwards of 20,000 of us on this one site alone. We have the numbers, we have the one purpose. I think it's extremely shiny that we're doing this. I also think since we're asking the browncoats to participate in this, the wording of the sig is appropriate. We are trying to reach browncoats with this message, not joe what's your name. We'll reach him after we get our new copies of the movie!!

I want to help because I believe in the goal - we can get more of our BDH's. How will i do that??? Buy DVD's and help ensure the preplanning for a charity screening here in Ottawa DOES in fact happen. Oh, and maybe make use of 11th hours fantastic gorilla marketing posters, with overlay of Charity event info! (if' she's okay with that??)

my .02 on name of day = how'bout de-unification day. I'd like to undo what the alliance did!! All kididng aside, any of the proposed names would do.
As for writing a book FM - heck, you t'wern't even close! JBW

I'll be in Jaynes bunk

One day
One mission
One army of browncoats

On June 23, We Aim To Misbehave!

I've been casually lurking, visiting this site every few months. Then I rented serenity on a whim and it got me really excited about the whole firefly universe again, but also sad because I knew there wasn't any firefly stories left to see, and prospect of a new series with dead characters is disheartening.

So I checked this site again, and what are the odds, its a day after this original post. O_o!

So yeah, I'll be buying serenity&firefly June23 off amazon, and I'll try to get involved with whatever flash skills I have.


If anyone else is lurking, just post and say hi, visable support can snowball.



As for names, I like the name Fireflyday because it rolls off the tounge so much more easily than anything else I've seen.


Will there eventually be a giant "June23, etc." static link blatently obvious at the top of this site? As it stands, one really have to hunt for this thread and any info reguarding June23 right now.


And if theres 20k people here, why are there so few votes on http://www.straightfromthehorsesmouth.co.uk/firefly/ ?
June23 needs more advertising, even if its just giant static text, it'll work just fine :)

Ok guys and gals. BIG news here.

Go vote over at the new thread for Browncoat Army: Firefly Day vs. Serenity Day.

Second issue, our main slogan we're pushing is:
One day.
One mission.
One army of Browncoats.
On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.

I know I wussed out earlier, but crew doesn't have the ring to it that Army has. We're an army, no denying. And Joss called us that. He's the creator. He's the genius.

So everyone who's working on adverts, run with it. Everthing I've seen so far has ROCKED!

Keep up the excellent work.

You all are one shiny group of folk.

Well yeah, when the votes are that heavily weighted for "Firefly Day", then that seems like the fans have spoken. But I'm still scratchin' my head over it. We're pushing to buy truckloads of the "Serenity" DVD, but it's called "Firefly Day"? Honestly, it does tend to confuse... but, oh well...

Of all the different combinations, this one seems the best. "Mission" does describe our endeavor and is a very activated word.

Joss is Boss.

"Army" does go together with "Browncoat", just like healthsome apples goes together with some kind of protein cheese food substance.

As for folks concerned about the whole "browncoats" and "brownshirts" association, this should be able to be avoided because our promotional materials will have Sci-Fi/Westerny imagery on it. So NO swastikas people!!!

Actually what I posted was that "Browncoat Day" was already taken. It's December 9th, the day the Firefly DVD was released.

I think someone got the words a little confuzzled. But Agatsu, I do appreciate that you stepped up to defend the name of the day!

As far as I know, "Firefly Day" was not officially designated by the fans yet. But it may have been... this campaign hasn't really reached other message boards in a big way yet. Those folks also didn't vote on the name of the day.

But I still don't get why so many people want to use "Firefly Day" as the name to mark the day we all push to buy "Serenity". Really, shouldn't we save "Firefly Day" for when we something that's really centered around Firefly?

I know a lot of fans had resistance to the word "Serenity" because it's a very misleading word to new folk. But our plans include flyers and banners and the images connected with "Serenity" would be our gorgeous cast, Sci-Fi/Western, and probably lots of pics of Serenity flying in space. So people would see the unsual combination and it would get their curiosity going.

People may not all agree that "Serenity" is a good name for the movie, promotion-wise, because the word does not say "Futuristic Adventure Story"... but like it or not, it IS the title of the movie and should be dominating our promotion. We can't dance around the subject that Serenity is a misleading name, we gotta keep putting it out there SO PEOPLE KNOW WHICH DVD TO BUY.

I know the votes are in, I don't really want to cause strife or nothin'. But if we don't want to come off sounding a bit amateurish in our promotion campaign, we really should name the day after the DVD we are pushing so hard to get known.

Otherwise, if the media does pick up on the story... I can tell you right now, THOSE writers are going to snicker a bit over how the name of the day and the DVD we're promoting don't match. We fans could end up looking like we didn't think the name of the day through well enough.

********************************

Calling it "Firefly Day" when the whole thing is about buying "Serenity" could end up causing us embarassment. We're going to be pouring all kinds of time and energy into this promotion... we may be shooting ourselves in the foot to have a contradictory name.

********************************


Okay, I've said it... but it was said with love...

I know, 11th, because those were my thoughts as well. But people have been pushing me towards fireflyday and the website is fireflyday.com.

Although...let me speak to Pizmobeach. He also purchased serenityjune23rd.com and I'm thinking we can run with that to be the website for Serenity Day IF that's how we feel.

Serenity Day makes perfect sense to me.

But it's gotta be decided because there are tons of people working on flyers/avatars/banners who need an answer.

Now, I ain't a dictator, and this is why I went with Firefly Day. If you all want Serenity Day, then I'll go with that. Making a new thread for people to vote... Since Max isn't here for us to use his nice voting software. (I'm so computerally inept.)

What 11thHour said. And, my take is:

I think the way to go is with the url that echoes what we're doing. Buy the SerenityDVD on June 23rd. Same message for Browncoat and the new fan driven there by curiosity.

It's easier to remember for the non-initiated.

www.serenityJune23.com

Wins my vote.

-Hera

EDIT: also, thinking long term, if fireflyday is taken by us, what if some future initiative, doing something Firefly-centric, could have made better use of that URL, marketing-wise? Us using SerenityJune23 opens up the opportunity for us continuing to use this URL to drum up support for the third movie, etc

Absolutely! I did mention it in my post, but it sure needs to be emphasized ~ Save "Firefly Day" for when we do something that really revolves around Firefly.

So...is June23 about promoting sequel to Serenity? Or is it about getting Firefly back on the air? Why would you want another movie, when the Half-season of Firefly was so much better...not to mention longer...than Serenity.

I originally thought the people here were pushing for the purchase of the Serenity DVD because it would be cheaper and more reasonable than asking people to buy a season of the TV show. Then I looked it up and the season is only $25....

This entire effort seems to be focused on getting another movie made. I thought we were fans of the show? Movies are great, but they are few and far between. Why are you pushing for a 2nd movie, am I missing something?

It's because right now Universal owns the rights to the 'verse. No TV show can be made without them, and if they were to make anything it would be a sequel. Purchasing the series on DVD is great, but it gives nothing to Universal. Therefore we need to send our cashy money their direction by buying the BDM in order to turn some heads. Hope that cleared it up.

Don't they own the Sci-Fi channel, as well? So technically, they COULD do a new series.
If nothing else, we'll get a fun and exciting day out of it. If we're lucky, we get an extended special edition with more commentaries and goodies or something. If we're the luckiest bastards in the 'verse, we get another movie or even a series.
It's nearly impossible, but hey, look where we all are - and why.

Well, actually, Fox still own's the rights to the 'verse on Television as far as I'm aware. Universal simply owns the rights to the films. That said, they could potentially purchase the TV rights from Fox, which is something worth pushing for.

We all would love to have the show back.

But the facts are that we stand a much better chance of impressing Universal with our numbers and our buying power with this mission and getting a movie is much more realistic.

It's like much in life.. we have to do what makes the most sense.

I do agree that a Firefly series would give us so much more to enjoy. But this push to buy the Serenity DVD will demonstrate the active fan base.

When Universal sees that there's still a big, and growing, audience out there for Firefly/Serenity, it'll be a sound business decision to make more. However, it doesn't mean the next incarnation has to be a movie. As already mentioned, Universal owns the Sci-Fi channel, they could very well decide to produce a series or mini-series.

As to 20th Century Fox owning the television rights... well there's good news from them. They're finally realizing that the fans are out there and they are officially licensing merchandise. The Firefly Official Companion books are being produced and that's an excellent indication of faith in Firefly.

Who knows? Maybe Universal and 20th Century Fox could work out a joint venture that allows Firefly to return to TV? When there's money to be made, studios find a way to work things out!

Malnourished, there's a poll in another thread about the name of this day (Firefly vs. Serenity). Is there any chance you could collect the different propositions for the signature and have a vote on that as well? It might go easier with some kind of voting website like they do in the caption contests, but I don't know much about that. There's some disagreement on this, and I think it would help settle the issue once and for all. (I've got the sig Kaele put in the OP, but I'm not 100% ok with it.)

Its basically a news site that is run completely by the people that go there and view the articles. Nobody chooses what goes on the front pages except for us. It all depends on how many "diggs" the article gets. If it gets popular enough, it will make the front page.

If we can get it to the front page, I figure thats just another way for us to spread the word about June 23rd. Heres the link again.

I may have missed this farther up, or on a different thread because I'm in a bit of a hurry and didn't read every single post, but is there any kind of official Serenity Day logo? I've got one that I designed that's on my bumper stickers, buttons, t-shirts, etc., but I wanted to know if there was another one I should be using.

Uhm, I'd wait with the trying to sell official merchandise for Serenity Day until there's an official logo.
If I were a Browncoat with only a vague understanding of what is going on and found that shirt and ordered it because I thought it is displaying the official design, I'd be pretty pissed to find out it isn't.
So please, everyone, don't start putting out merchandise just yet, because it will only be confusing and unorganised, AND LOOK THAT WAY, TOO.

Right so, I had this idea. I had started a thread but no one responded Anyway. You know those postcards with the sticky fronts so you can stick pictures on them. Well, we could stick Serenity Day posters on them and send them to random people with what Serenity Day is about typed on the back.

This is something everyone could do if there was a specific poster and letter we could put on the back.

We could also send this to the cast. It would be interesting to see if they started helping.

Just a thought.

I'm trying to link to all pertinent information from Jaynebunk.


I also noticed that a google search for Serenity Day mostly comes up with day spas. We need to keep clicking those Serenity links that lead to Serenity related stuff to raise us up in the listing.



The logo should be just about done:

I don't know about the banners, though.

I tried googling Serenity Day just now, and we're at 4th place behind some spas. Don't worry about that, we'll come up number one soon enough.

I am very new here, but I am a dedicated browncoat nonetheless. I want to help with Serenity/Firefly/Re-Unification Day, whatever it is called, June 23rd. I have a bunch of spare time on my hands. I cannot program too well, and am no good with graphics, but I still want to help, if I can. You can contact me on here or at jimi.spettel@gmail.com if there is anything at all that I can do to assist.

Thanks, Jimi.
If you look down the topics list, you'll see a call for volunteers to help spread the word. Check it out and enlist!
Nothing needed except a computer and spare time.

We sniff the air, we don't kiss the dirt.


My computer skills are limited(not to mention my computer itself) but I mentioned it in several chatrooms and also printed the flyer and hung it in the local comic shops and book stores. If there is anything else I can do, someone let me know.

hum, I feel a bit out of the loop here in Norway, and I feel like I can't very well boost a screening here in Trondheim as I'm travelling abroad that day, but I do have a friend who works at the movies and maybe he can pull some strings for other browncoats.

I will spread the word and I suppose ordering the DVD's from play.com also counts for something on that special day. I already feel mighty.

Also I will get my boyfriend on board, he makes daily comic strips in one of Norways biggest newspapers:

I am sure he can make something good for June 23rd!!

Keep up the good work!!! You're all my kind of stupid.

I like it! Not only am I finding every browncoat I know but I am posting it as all my signatures on all the message boards I am on.

Regretabbly I will be on vacation without an Internet connection (tear) however I will have someone still go out and purchase it for me on that day (Serenity HD-DVD).

Thanks, Kaele!

YAY!

Hey, gang! Just a BIG reminder to those who are posting that they're spreading the word across bulletin boards and stuff- It's great that you're enthusiastic and gettin people involved. That's what we need.
But we also need to be coordinated. Too many people showing up at random sites and saying "Serenity DaY" is going to look like spam and make some people unhappy!

Spam Job: ZISKER has volunteered for this mission.
AND ZISKER said---
Actually, if you wish to volunteer please visit: http://www.geocities.com/browncoatsignalcorps



If you're posting to non-Browncoat related sites, we should coordinate that as well.

Kaele?
Should we start a thread for that?
Or I could just ask people to post at the Jaynesbunk corkboard where they've spread the word so far?
What do you think?
