It's two .. two .. two months in one! Appropriate, since "The Alternative Factor" is about two visions - what Star Trek is, and what it might have been. Klaus challenged us to present a vision of Star Trek from another perspective, an alternate timeline where things are familiar, but not the same - true to Star Trek's universe, but not necessarily the universe as we've always seen it. So step through the looking glass, see the other worlds of Star Trek, and vote! Two days from now, someone from another universe will be challenging us anew . ================================ gazomg ------------------------------ kitkatkatiekin ------------------------------ Klaus ------------------------------ Ptrope ------------------------------ The Lensman
Tough choice this time! Ultimately I went with The Lensman just becasue he did such an excellent job combining those different elements. If I weren't as familiar with how Star Trek actually unfolded, I might be tricked into thinking this was authentic, the compositing is so well done. But everyone else had something going for them, so, like I said, this was a tough one... --Alex
Thanks for the kind words everyone! In all honesty, I'm a bit surprised at the positive response. For me it was a tough call between Klaus and Ptrope as both are brilliant. I think this was one of the tougher ones to decide. Ultimately I went with Ptrope because I have a major soft spot for well done "period piece" book covers that evoke a sense of wonder. Well done you guys!
Thanks, The Lensman, and once again, congratulations! You 'played your card' and now you get to deal the new game for November . Well done, everyone who entered, and we're looking forward to more from you - and from more of you - this month . Thanks to those who entered, and thanks to those who voted - thanks to you all, the fun here never stops .
Yeah, I kinda miss the old days when people would go into more depth in their critiques and feelings about the various pieces, but it is what it is.
