It's a comm!

Hear ye, hear ye... 

Announcing the arrival of

[profile] redial_the_gate, a comm in which we're going to rewatch all - yes, all - of the Stargate episodes, including the film. Yes, this will take about four years. What, you had something better to do?

It's still in the stage of being set up, so please step carefully around any exposed cables, wear your hard hat at all times, and don't lean against the paint. It'll be fully operational (fingers crossed) for discussion of the film on Tuesday 24th July, just in time for the 10th anniversary of the debut of Stargate: SG-1 (27th July). *gets misty and sentimental*

So dust off that old VHS of Stargate the movie, give it a watch, visit the comm, and join the squee!

And don't forget to bow down in praise to [profile] abyssinia4077, the genius who thought of it in the first place, and the driving force behind setting it up. KNEEL BEFORE YOUR GOD, TAU'RI!

*picks up tools, gets back to work*

Oh, before I forget - does anyone know how to chat to more than one person via IM? So that all the people involved can chat at the same time, in the same window, I mean - like a conference call (I can do the holding-two-separate-conversations-at-once thing, although it does make my head want to explode). Is it easy, or do you have to download a specific IM service? I've failed at teh internetz, and can't work it out.

I'm so ridiculously excited about this re-watching thing. It's like...the show never ended! Or...never will end?

Something like that.

As far as chatting...I'm sure it's possible to set it up in Trillian, seeing as how I'm nearly sure I did a lot of chats in Trillian when I had it...but then again, haven't used it in about 8 million years, so...

Good luck?

I know exactly what you mean. I'm so excited about the rewatch thing, too. By the time it actually comes around, I'll have worn myself out. *g*

You know, I bet I just didn't see the right button on Trillian, or something. Or perhaps it didn't work 'cause I wasn't actually talking to anyone - I was just looking at the, um... thingy. The bit that's not the message window. (Gawd, my technical vocabulary is non-existent.) Maybe I needed to have a messenger window actually open. I shall experiment this evening.

The buddy list? Yeah, possibly. You might also look at File/Edit/Something else>Invite to Chat. Or maybe right click on someone's name and see if there's a chat option there...

I've found it on Trillian. Looks like I'd have to invite people individually on that, though, rather than just saying 'this is the chatroom name, turn up'.

Blast, blast, blast. Further investigation needed.

At least I'm getting the gist now, though.
