PMing or posting?

 

I PM'd...

 

We're still PM'in votes. Just need a couple more before i post results.

 

Sock army PMing time?

 

So, some friends and I have a running table-top rpg game as SG-21. Some of our sessions should really be tv episodes, really capture the feel of the show and can be quite epic. We're on a hiatus in the middle of season 8, though once we finish up the Reckoning plot stuff, I think the GM's planning on sending us over to Atlantis rather than sticking around for the Ori.

Anyway, I think I should be able to vote for those sessions over weaker SG-1 episodes.

 

That would put the rest of us at a disadvantage


We only hit about 2/3rds normal participation this batch (I guess a couple folks are on vacation) so quite a few tie breakers involved.
