More FanLib Hoo-Ha

I still wouldn't trust FanLib any further than I could spit their dubious TOS.

Trek working with FanLib?? WTF?!

No, I hope they don't get many entries. But you have to admit that for a franchise facing a big birthday and no show on the air, it's a good piece of marketing to try to engage the fan base. Of course they're trying to engage the segment of the base they usually antagonize/disregard in favour of the cool, hip 20something male(dreamland) fanbase, but whatever.

It keeps getting better, doesn't it.

Wow, Kirk *vs.* Picard. How many fics have you seen pitting the two against each other? Me... none.

Crossovers usually involve working together.

More proof they don't get the female space of fan fiction. This should get the fanboys motivated, huh.

Yeah. Marketing. ::shudder:: I have a friend who was in a Trek satire musical that ran without objection for years until out of nowhere Paramount decided on a whim that it needed to stop. I do not trust Paramount. I really do not trust FanLib. I'm a little surprised and disappointed in Takei and Wheaton for going near this project. It's all just too squirrely for words.

We'll just ignore the fact that Janeway could kick both their asses, shall we?

I've never seen "K v. P" either. Granted I've not been looking, but I still find it v. unlikely.

I'd be surprised if anything beyond an all-Trek-girl Jell-o wrestling tourney could motivate the fanboys they've been marketing to for the last decade. (Bitter? Moi? >:-P )

Didn't you know? Female Trek fans don't exist! *eyeroll*

[monkeybard]

Right. And the Earth is flat, the moon landing was faked, and there were WMD in Iraq. Bleh. (I'm getting dizzy from my own *eyeroll*ing.)

True that...but in this case, Picard would totally kick Kirk's fat ass! mwahahahahaha!

Naw, you're not bitter. Just cranky! ;)

[monkeybard]

Bit of both, really. ;)
