Printable and redeemable online, I believe. Looking very tempting.

That would be a good hope. If the editing team simply worked on a few shots or scenes, in the end it could be pieced together as desired. Perhaps the vote thing gave some direction, but perhaps it also lost too many's interest, as you pointed out. I think if you simply put ships wherever you wanted them, that would be fine for everyone else. That was my hope initially, anyway. I simply wanted the editors to have a great deal of latitude to use their own creative juices as desired. Whatever you want to do, wherever you want to put it, do it! Then share :)
I don't really hear anyone else in my head, but I have to say that I picture Moth3r exactly the way his current avatar shows him: a grumpy grump with glaring eyes, looking specifically for any infraction of the rules:

Found a whole thread devoted to a very strangely named Darth!!!

When the Spanish comes up I can make some sense of the words utilized, but in reality, the joke of this thread and all associated jokes inserted in other threads just about takes the burrito when it comes to confusing Bingowings posts. I wouldn't have any idea what Bingo was getting at, even if it were in English.
Well this pleases me. Nice ending to the story. Thanks for the response :)
That looks pretty fun, Johannus, though I admit I broke out laughing when I saw Chewie yanking that stormtrooper around! Perhaps this can reignite interest. I have a feeling some more recruiting will need to take place, as well as some speaking with folks who still seem to be on board. Let me ask, are you willing to take over for a time as the coordinator of the project? I know you're busy, but do you think you could get people motivated for even a short time? I haven't given up on this project, though I personally can't push it anymore at the present.
So sean wookie, you ever gonna let us know what happened here? Did she come back? Did she like the plush doll? Are you married with 1 and 7/9ths children? Did she dump you for a real loser that thinks the Enterprise-E could take out the Star Destroyer Avenger?
PS I wanted to bump an old thread like everyone else, and this one really tugged at the heart strings ;)
Well, I think this will appeal to the OP, as it's a good clean Mormon joke.
President Thomas S. MOnson (leader of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) was returning to Salt Lake City after speaking in a local congregation in Boise, Idaho. Sitting in the back of his limousine, he became quite bored, and thus decided to make a request of his chauffeur.
"Pull over, Jimmy. I'd like to have a turn at the wheel. You hop in the back."
In no time at all, Pres. MOnson was cruising down the Utah state highway at 67 mph, but he felt the urge to go just a bit faster. He depresses the gas peddle and takes the limo up to 90...100...117 mph!!!...that is, until he noticed the flashing police lights behind him and hears the megaphone voice shouting at him to pull over.
On the side of the road, Officer Murray got out of his police cruiser and slowly, confidently approaches the arrogant driver of this fancy vehicle. He'd show him a thing or two. But when Pres. MOnson lowered the automatic window, the officer halted in complete shock, did an about face, and returned to his cruiser to get on the radio.
"Chief, this is Murray. I have a bit of a problem. I pulled over this limo going down the highway at close to 120 miles per hour, but I don't think I can write out a ticket."
The chief's voice comes back. "Why, what's the problem?" he asks in a voice filled with static.
"Well, there's somebody extremely important in this vehicle," replied Murray timidly.
"What do you mean? Is it Utah Governor Herbert?" queried the chief.
Murray stammered, "N-n-no. Somebody far more important than that."
"Is it President Obama???" asked the chief, getting nervous himself.
"I'm afraid not, sir. It's someone far more important than that."
The chief was both terrified and confused. "Who've you pulled over? Who could possible be so important???"
Murray took a deep gulp and began to explain. "Well sir, the windows are tinted and I couldn't see in the back...but President Thomas S. MOnson is his chauffeur!"
Thanks, Ron :)
That was good fun!
I hope this can continue. Angel has dropped out, and aalenfae does not have the time to devote to this that we would likely need. In all honesty, if this is to be completed, we need some leadership that I can no longer provide due to real-word commitments that I'm actually trying to succeed at, and we need to see who of our team is still committed to getting this done. We'd probably need a new version of aalenfae due to his busy schedule at the present, and could probably only ask him to do a few things.
Yes, Ronster, I have my doubts as well, though I hope things pan out, but I really cannot keep everything going, nor do have the skills to make it a reality. And no one else has stepped up to the plate. I never got around to finishing up the script, though changes there would be relatively minor as most major things had already been decided. But I really am trying to succeed in this nursing program, and I bombed a recent test in part due to my misallocation of time. If I get the script done, I'll make it available here for others to use, and probably put it in the scriptwriting forum too so anyone else can get inspiration from it. I would love to see this done, but I have my worries and my doubts.

Proved by actual science and sociology, real reasons why the good guys won!

It would serve the same purpose as fake script pages. To confound and confuse as to the real plot line. ;)
I thought that was what the real script pages were for ;)
Personally I think that the Galactic Herald should have posted a somewhat anonymous Haiku in her memory as part of the obituary.
You should have joined me

I hope you'll consider posting your rough cut somewhere, as it really is a unique and interesting telling of the Star Wars tale.
Looking good. Keep up the good work. I love to see these deleted scene restorations, (though I'm the biggest fan of ROTJ scenes ;)
YAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!!
Bingowings meant to say:
I ingested several small leafy vegetables, green, slightly bitter but savory, with a permeating earthy flavor of such supernal quality as to endow the senses with an overwhelming aura of subliminity, reminiscent of the days in Belgium's grandest metropolis after which these sprouts were named. And I melted some butter on them. Yum.

... George Lucas ?
I have to be honest, that is pretty funny :)
Yes, indeed. It's okay, Warb. Take a break if you feel the need, but really, we all need to just not take things so seriously, myself among the guiltier.
Hey, MrinsaneA, you haven't missed much. This project is unfortunately stalled. It seems that everyone is quite busy, and unless I go into my usual obsessive overindulgent phases, this project has a difficult time continuing. I do worry about the viability of it, but I really don't want it to die.
When starting this thread, I honestly had no intention to be any sort of leader. I lack virtually any skill useful to this project except decent organizational abilities and decent writing/story skills. But I also suggested this project partly with the idea that when participants drop out, others can take their place. I'm not dropping out per se, but I feel my utility is largely used up, and I'm really trying to use my personal time better.
I've stated this before with little success, but I'm going to go for it again:
Who will lead this project? Who will keep the energy alive? Who will continue to supply ideas, organize what is necessary, and help see this thing though?
I still have a small role to complete, that is updating the script, perhaps writing a little extra for it to allow for some additional filmed material, etc. But I think I need to fade away into one of the peanut gallery members.
If I may posit a few suggestions:
Aalenfae, I think this project will never be completed without you. You have the greatest technical skills among us. I know you are busy with your personal life and your other edit, but if you are willing, you might be the best fit.
Johannus, you have shown the most initiative in reaching out to tap additional resources with costuming and puppetry and you helped me organize the last vote. Perhaps you've got the skills and passion to fill a leadership role for a time.
None of you is obliged to be a permanent "leader," and I think any other participant could take on the role: I know the whole editing team has offered or continues to offer a lot. Other participants have a passion for ideas and trying to provide mockups and scripting suggestions. Someone can do it and keep the energy alive for a time. But I can't
So this week, assuming I have time, I will update the script to a largely finalized version, perhaps add a few potential clips or scenes with suggestions of how to implement them, and then go back to reading but not commenting much. Please, please, someone step up to the plate. As Sluggo said (and I do appreciate it), we should not give up. This project can be completed if even one person has the determination to push it forward. Who will that be?
Whatever your ambitions, I would like to see the closest thing to a finished project you could provide.
XyZ, I was not replying to a specific post, but all your posts. Perhaps you were just teasing (over and over and over), and yes, it's the Internet, but apparently it was causing Warbler distress, and I for one don't enjoy reading all this crap, whether he reads it or not.
Yes, Bingowings, who cares, it's the Internet, and I'm sure it could be said in many, many more words ;) But look guys, we come here to enjoy ourselves and discuss Star Wars and other topics we find entertaining or enlightening. Collective and ongoing harassment take away from that pleasure. You have every right to be a jerk, and I have every right to tell you to knock it off. It detracts from not only Warbler's enjoyment, but others'.
I don't mean to cause offense to anyone (but it's the Internet, right, so no one should get offended). I just want my experience as well as others' to be pleasant.
Warbler, I do know that Bingo's posts often make little sense at times, but I honestly have never gotten offended by him. I actually enjoy his bizarre humor. Considering you're unblocking his individual posts in order to read and respond, you should probably just unblock him. He's really not too bad a guy.
