The contests in the Prequel Trilogy and Classic Trilogy forums to write missing scenes and rewrite existing ones are still going on. Winners get VIP colors for a few days. Join in
The CT Scene Write/Rewrite Contest, and The PT Scene Write/Rewrite Contest, and see what they've already done.

The new season for American Idol started on January 16. Check out the discussion in YJCC. We're in the crazy, no-talent stage!

What comics did you pick up this week? Go to SFF: Books and Comics and let us know!

See if you've missed anything in the Battlestar Galactica discussion in SFF:Films and Movies.

Are you in the Burning Crusade? If so, they have a cream for that. Go check out the WoW discussion in Games: Videogames to talk about hordes and alliances, and...stuff.

Do you know the meaning of "balderdash"? Check out Bluffin' Balderdash if you don't! The game is returning from its holidays in Census and Games today!

What do you think the title for the new Indy 4 movie will be? Let us know in Lucasfilm Projects/Indian Jones 4. Check it out here!

In The Senate, The JC's Top Twenty People of the Twentieth Century has some interesting discussion going on. Go put in your two pence worth!

 

You have more color in your updates than all the others lately Roo

 

Yes, tonight see if you can find the Seattle geeks on AI - be VERY afraid of the city that Simon called the worse he's ever been to

 

Ahem. I would be remiss if I didn't point out that sign - ups for the latest round of the SFF Film and TV Trivia Game are now open. As our wonderful host Jedi_Master_Conor would tell you, it's fun and there are no gamebans.

 

Thanks Juliet316. Yes. Please join. It's been a while since I've had a game with a full group of people signed up. I'd like to get that happening more often.

 

Thanks for the info and links.

 

How does that distiguish it from the later rounds?

Indiana Jones and the Really Last Crusade
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Geritol
Raiders of the Lost Ben Gay

 

Indiana Jones and the Rest Home of Doom?

 

I need at least 1 more person to sign up for the SFF: Films and TV Trivia contest so I have an even amount of contestants. Please sign-up!

 

Sweet! I love watching the auditions for American Idol. I crack up every season from the horrible singers.
And shouldn't the title be edited from American idol is lame to an Official American Idol thread?

 

Also, the sign-ups for Mafia Game are going on in Census and Games. You can find the thread HERE.

 

The next EUC Starfighter Draft is up and running. If you're quick, you can sign up here

 

Personally, I'd keep it as it is. The title is part of the way the thread evolved. The thread has done well since its creation (without the need for obvious signposting), and so it should do as well this time round as well.

EDIT: Although I do think it should be put in the thread index.

 

I agree about the title, but I did put in the JCC Index and note that it was the official thread.

And thanks for bringing threads to the update! That's what we like to see. If you know of a thread (don't pimp your own per se, just for attention) and think others might find it interesting, please feel free to post it to any update! Make sure you note what forum, the title of the thread and provide a link.

 

Signups have also started for Classic Trilogy Trivia Game 42
