Insofar as this is a retread of one of your ideas, Nate, sorry about that. Hopefully this project will be a little more successful, because, like the Z said, I've got all the production details in place. Just need some scripts. Feel free to throw one in if you're so inclined.
Zeke, your dibs is acknowledged enthusiastically! I'll cross my fingers that you'll able to find the time for it.

Well, there's a difference between a project here and a project somewhere else, isn't there?

Hey, that's right, I do have a new laptop with potentially adequate recording capabilities, don't I?
*plots* Anyway, good luck with your idea, Wowbagger. I think it's a good one.

^ I read this post days ago, and it just now suddenly occurred to me:
If it's a good idea, why not participate? *winning used car salesman smile*

Yikes. You've been around here too long -- my response lag is rubbing off on you.

And, yeah, NAHT, I'm not in the least worried about actually that five-minute runtime. Looking at the enormous range of runtimes we've had for Excelsior eps (33min to 93min), I've clearly enjoyed the flexibility that comes with an online time slot quite a lot myself! Thanks for giving it a go! Got your PM, will answer it as soon as I remind myself of what the heck happened back in Season One. :P EDIT: Come to think of it, if we've got "Valandrian Expedition" through "Wildfire" covered, somebody really ought to do the season finale, "Down the Rabbit Hole." Any more takers?

Here's what I have at this point:
Turns of Events Wildfire Please feel free to correct any terminology, rank, speaker credits, etc. I messed up or was foggy about. I've tried to keep stage directions and explicit hisses and inflections and such to a minimum. I figure you people know how to execute that stuff better than I do.

I just read the current draft out loud, without pausing for scene changes, additional sound effects, or comedic timing, and it took six minutes. And that's with one scene left to write. This isn't going to be a fiver, strictly speaking, if you don't mind going a few minutes over the limit.
 Otherwise there are a few bits I could cut.I was pleasantly surprised. I figured I'd have my hands full just keeping track of who was talking, but I managed to get a handle on the main parts' names well enough. And when I got to the second episode, the jokes came easily enough that I quickly decided that would be the episode I'd tackle. All in all, it was surprisingly painless. Having a good storyline didn't hurt either.[edit]I'll try to do one more, "Wildfire".
