Oooh. That'd be simple. Create a Random Fiver of the Day thread. Maybe I'd cut and paste a fiver into the thread on Monday, Maverick would cut and paste one in on Tuesday, Arzosah would do it on Wednesday, and so on. Emphasis on "Random Fiver." No picking of favorites. Maybe have additional rotating theme days. TNG, DS9, VOY, TOS/ENT, Misc. (that should be about equal-sized fiver pools, right?)

Wednesday here, and it will continue to be Wednesday for about another seven hours. Only Alaska, Hawaii and some bits of coral get more Wednesday than I do.

Ok then, todays Random Fiver is...

I used the newspage, picked a random month (June 2005) and chose semi-randomly a fiver. That work?

Meh. Do you really need a new thread? This one is called 'Random Fiver Option?'. It's like you're asking if anyone wants the option of a random fiver, cos here it is.

So who's on Thursday? and what's on Friday?

Okay, official post.

On your given day you will post a link to the random fiver in your assigned series, along with commentary about your favorite jokes, questions about references, and so on.

Monday: Nate the Great/Infinite Improbability
Tuesday: MaverickZer0
Wednesday: AKAArzosah
Thursday: Sa'ar Chasm
Friday: Chancellor Valium
Saturday/Sunday: Zeke can handle the weekends. Probably one fiver for the whole thing.

Response to Message in a Bottle:

Romulan Officer: Lovely. What are we supposed to do, just ask the ship how to attack?
Computer: Attack mode activated. Engaging target. Please press F1 if further assistance is required.
Romulan Captain: I love the Federation.
Nate: If only Microsoft was really that helpful.

Doc: I swore I'd never use one of these. Computer, activate EMH.
Doc 2: Hey you, you're an idiot!
Nate: Gotta love that default insult subroutine.
