As I write these two are playing their 95th game of the fifth set. Incredible stuff; anyone else watching them?
EDIT: 100th...
EDIT2: 59 - 59 games in the final set, and the match has just been suspended due to bad light. Going into a third day tomorrow.

This is a post written simply to test the water, so to speak. At the moment I'm considering seriously encouraging more non-canonical content on the LBT wiki. This is for two reasons:

1. Growth
I feel that a good wiki should always be aiming to grow, and as Universal aren't planning on coughing up more canonical material just yet, non-canon is the only way forward at present. In any case, I believe that as long as it is clear to readers that what they're reading is non-canon, it will be a great addition to the wiki if it truly takes off. Although canon is important, the surrounding LBT community is important too, and it is still LBT-related.

2. Member Numbers
This is one of those things one shouldn't perhaps admit, but I would be hoping that members here editing their own fan-work over at the wiki would get a taste for it, and start editing the wiki as a whole. There's been a real slump in editors of late, and it would be gratifying to change that if possible.

A start has already been made with the introduction of the Own Character section, which has had a few entries to date, but I would really like to expand non-canon as a whole more dramatically if possible. But before this all gets going, I'd like to know what everyone here, the place which most editors in this departament would come from, thought about the idea. There is a bit of work to be done before a lot of this can really get moving, and I don't wish to waste time doing it all if it turns out that noone would be interested, which would, after all, be fair enough.

Things that immediately come to mind are fanfictions, roleplays and the like, although things like the game currently being worked on here (unless it's been finished during my abscence!) would certianly warrant a page in my opinion. In any case, all I want here are opinons, ideas and a general indication of the level of enthusiasm.

P.S Good to be back!

I'm going on holiday to France over the Summer holidays, and I was wondering about getting an internet connection over there. At the moment we have a household network, which I can tap into with my laptop's built-in wireless. So I'm just asking for a quick low-down of the different ways I could get onto the internet for those two weeks, without having to hand over large sums of cash. I'm not that desperate, I'm just considering the possibility here.

I spotted this recently and thought it might be useful to people making  music videos with stills, or just generally. The site it's on do a different program every day, usually anywhere in the region of $20-$50, but on one day only it's free. If you want a DVD image capurer worth $40, then for today only it's free there. I've downloaded a couple of things off this siter before, and never had any trouble at all.

This is really for the "Foreign Songs" topic. I have a program called "DVD Decrypter" which I have tried on one DVD, but it only came out as Japanese, which was the default language. I need something which I can use to get the songs from any language off my LBT DVDs. It doesn't have to be a proper ripper either, just something to record the audio. I'm asking here to a. save time and b. ensure the best possible qualtiy is obtained.

Thanks in advance.

I've recently got into this wonderful comedy TV series, after discovering that someone has uploaded them to Youtube. I'm just wondering if anyone else here is a fan.

I was thinking the other day about the way characters talk in LBT. At the same time I remembered how "The Teletubbies" got some bad press a while back about ruining how young children speak, and I wondered if the same thing could apply to LBT. To those of you whose English isn't particularly good, do you find that your grammar is messed up by the way LBT characters talk?

This is just an idea I had, not sure how it will pan out. Before I start asking if anyone's interested I thought I'd first check how much people know about the d20 system (I have a feeling that only one or two people will have even heard of it...).

I recently re-discovered The Land Before Time at the grand old age of fifteeen, where I dragged out an old taped version of the first film and watched it. Quality wasn't great but it was still good viewing and a trip down memory lane.

I also have vivid memories of Chomper eating dragonflies, so I must have seen number two at some point, but can't find it anywhere in the house.

I probably won't be as active as I'd like to be as I have to split my time between here, coursework, a novel I'm writing, piano practice, school and the Hard-Light forums but I'd like to think I can chat with some people here.
