image When dancing... lost in techno space trance. Arms flailing, gawky gravity only brings you down. Then find you snagged on frowns, and so slowly dawns of time... you're jazzing to the bleep tone of a life support machine, that marks the steady fading of the star you call Sun. And when midget midnight sirens lead to blue-flash road-mash. Stretchers, covered heads, and slippy red macadam, and find you creeping 'neath the blankets, to snuggle close a mangle bird, hoping soon you too will be freezer drawered. Then welcome... mmm... ooh, chemotherapy wig, welcome, to the Trash Epics SciFi Fantasy challenge...

Consistency is the name of the game in week 2*, with most players clocking up a similar score as last time and nobody moves up or down more than a place. Giftastic Onyx is still light years ahead of everyone, she will take some catching as time slips, turns, slides, warps n runs out. The equally giftacular Troma tightens his grip on second place, but has pressure from Ballz (hee) who is ploughing (hee) his way through some classic TV and foz making good use of his free Netflix trial to challenge for a podium, or at least hold off beatnik. There's a bit of a gap developing to the midfield, and even more further down as inevitably interest begins to wane.

Onyx could not watch anything else for the remainder of the challenge and I'm pretty sure I'd never catch up to her. I (barely) surpassed Troma at least once before though and hope to do so again, even if that's not how it ends.

Thanks for the pun-filled update, foz.

yup, Onyx has got it sewn up, tho judging from the comment below there'll be no complacency creeping in. should be close from 2nd to 5th tho, and there's plenty of time for a late surge from midfield.

any excuse to sneak a C&H ref in and i will pounce on the chance as soon as it walks through the door!

your ahead of the Star Trek race, that's worth some borg bonus (sorry). i never got into ST and there's so many spin offs wouldn't know where to start. are any of them on the more horror/adult scifi side? I have seen wrath of khan & liked the brainmunching slug/earwig in helmet bit

I actually never really got into ST either, except just watching the orignal series as a kid. I happened upon this Voyager series kind of by accident and I'm having a really good time with it. I haven't seen anything of Next Generation except for the first 10 eps or so and that was back when it aired, and none of the other series.

I have to say, based on what I've seen, there are some dark(ish) episodes in Voyager though, For one thing the entire premise of them being thrown into a remote quadrant of space has allowed the writers a bt more leeway and creativity with some of the alien ancounters, etc. I'd say the "grossest" ep so far is one called"Threshold" where the ship's pilot tries to break warp 9 to warp 10 and he experiences some really negative (and grim) body effects afterwards. That ep got nominated for an award for the makeup I think. There are other eps dealing with death. etc that I don't recall seeing as so dark in the original with Kirk too.

one word of warning (which may not apply to you): it's one of my least favorite eps so far, the ending is pretty cheesy. But the makeup was bomb. So... you've been warned. emoticon

noticing that was the catalyst for my 'numbers' bit, was trying to think of a way to make updates more interesting.

is 41 any good? the brief premise on imdb sounds intruiging - "A young man discovers a hole in the floor of a local motel that leads to yesterday."

Yeah. 41 ain't bad. Much better than it has any right to be. The hole in the floor thing is about as bottom of the barrel of a time travel method as you're going to find. Not the most uninteresting Australian movie I've seen...
