It's fine for the Enterprise to have corporate sponsors...right?

Here's what I'm going with for the colour replacement:

The darkest green in the template = "medium grey"

The lighter green = "light grey"

White = "light grey"

Light blue = "light grey"

Leaving the other ones on top is exactly the plan!

People are already drawing "over" our template - this is absolutely fine, since they almost certainly can't see it, or what we're doing.

I think it will be cool if we can just go "around" their stuff, so it appears that the Enterprise is in the background of whatever they're doing.

I'm glad they made the call - I'm certain the same thing would have happened had there been a game in Winnipeg this week.

I don't know about "quickly" - at the rate they're going, the show won't end until 2028...

I'd be happy to move the Enterprise to a more clear space - is there an obvious way to do that that I'm missing?

I'm just mad we're exporting the stuff for free.

We get some additional mentions of how young Rose is, which always kind of throws me.

Yeah, I've never bought the whole "19 years old" thing.

i would guess getting the earth to destroy itself with its own weapons would skirt around any shadow proclamation rules outlawing their behaviour.

Damn that Prime Directive!

I think it's high time they showed us literally anything from "Academy." Footage would be great, photos would be acceptable.

The low end of the merchandise continuum seems to be their biggest weakness. This higher-detail, higher-end stuff is plentiful, but the prices are unreal.

Yeah let's face it if you're going to own a model Gorn, this is the one you want.

All Gorn are beautiful!

They seem to be playing things close to the vest for now, but I'm sure that will all come out in time.

It's such a shame, too - I really want the Schooners to exist.

I don't think that sort of arrangement is all that unusual - deposits are generally used to gauge interest, in addition to funding the project. And they appear to have had CFL backing.

Where they got sketchy is the apparent lack of an automatic refund process.

That's a mighty thin schedule.

I'm not thrilled that the Bombers are off again this week - hopefully they don't accrue too many injuries after this, because the schedule's going to be a grind.

I've started and stopped trying to put together a reply to this several times, and I'm not really any closer to anything coherent.

The bottom line is that I have historically liked Fontaine as an MLA. I think her concern - obstructed sightlines from the stage - is understandable.

But I can't fathom expressing those frustrations in that manner. There's really no excuse. Whether that's worth a resignation...I don't know. I wouldn't be mad if she stepped down, but I'm also not necessarily mad that she hasn't. I guess time will tell whether she learned anything.
