OT: SEIV Movie??
 
I wonder if we could interst the Sci-Fi channel in one or more of our current Space Empires IV stories?

I mean we have a wealth of great stories currently posted on this forum that would make excellent mini-series or even a weekly original series.

Think about it for a minute or two and consider the possiblities. With so many great stories and on going stories about SEIV, written by people who love the game and enjoy writing, the supply of scripts would be endless.

Wouldn't you love to see a series or mini series based off of someone's story? I know that I would and I would even love it more if my Story were selected as one. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Just to see what would happen we should send a few emails to the sci-fi channel and see if we could get someone interested in the concept or at least the game.

That would be SO COOL!!! I don't get to read the stories vary often, I wish that it would go back to the way it was, there was a web site set up ONLY for SEIV stories http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif . To bad that site closed down http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif .

Fyron is in the process of getting all the stories hosted on his www.spaceempires.net site. With any luck most of them will be hosted there by summer.

REALY??!! I MUST check that out. I am a very avid book reader and I think that many of these stories would make good books http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif .

Yes I know. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif I wish I had the interst and motivation to finish my Story. I have started a re-write of it, and so far so good, but I just keep running out of steam.

You would figure that if writing was so enjoyable more people, including I, would do it more often.

My hang up is my lack of proper skill in spelling and punctuation. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

I have plenty of imagination and the more you write the better you become. So I guess I should just buy a bottle of Jack, get slightly buzzed and start writing.

The story is really a good one, I just have to get back into it and finish book one.

Oh ya, a few of the current stories are listed in the second STICKY at the top of the SEIV forum page under FAN FICTION.

Well, in the US, our friend Jack Daniels is legal. Absinthe, however, is not.

Not that it really stops the people determined to get it...

I don't have the time to read these stories. Maybe I should one of these days. I like the concept, Atroticites, but since the Sci-Fi channel is run by suits and not geeks, whatever may come of this may not be to our expectations. Not that I get the chance to watch the channel that often, but it seems to me they watch the bottom line more than reading the scripts. Good luck.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">That's not exactly correct. Depending on what state you're in it may be leagal to posses and consume real Absinthe with limited levels of... what's the stuff called? Is it 'thuzione' or something like that?

It's even legal to buy it here in Colorado.
