    Obviously it’s another fan fleecing. The implied question is: Why is anyone dumb enough to keep falling for it?

    The hatred of CBS runs deep.

    A crewmember from that episode could appear in Picard...

    Do we think someone can be conned into replicating/finishing what Tobias Richter planned, before they were leaked by Burnett? They were cool, remember? ;)

    Deliberate misspelling to put distance between CBS Trek and Peters shit?

    That’s my belief. Hit AP where it hurts — brand recognition. He’s been stealing off of Trek IP for almost a decade based on a planet barely referenced. If they didn’t spell it onscreen, that’s an easy way to nip it in the bud.

    I still think the way to do it was to make the Ares a garbage scow.

    "Laddie, don't you think you should rephrase that?"


    "You're right, I should. I didn't mean to say that it should be hauling garbage. I meant to say that it should be hauled away as garbage."

    Naaah, definitely think it would be hilarious if one of the shows just dropped in a reference to a garbage scow named the Ares. LFIM would fume.

    Number One fell into step with her captain as they headed back to the bridge from lunch. "By the way, we received a message from the Ares; an invitation to some sort of celebration."

    Pike stopped in mid-stride and shook his head. "The Ares. Have you ever met their captain?" Pike couldn't bring himself to say the name. Number One shook her head to indicate she had not. Pike began walking again, "The man is a walking contradiction. Book-smart, full of arrogance and hubris, and yet utterly incompetent. He got lucky in battle once, so now he has the Admiralty thinking he's the greatest officer to ever serve in Starfleet. It's a miracle he didn't get his whole crew killed."

    Number One wisely changed the subject to discuss upcoming crew evaluations.

    This video just popped up on my YouTube feed. I love how LFIM is showing off the bridge set and promising that filming will start soon like we're still in 2015

    Latest Donor Emails: Casting for the L.A. shoot has begun, and "garage sale" emails from Ares Studios at least twice a day for the last couple of days.

    The email that angers me the most is that AP will be doing another Kickstarter for the feature length Axanar script to be printed because they "owe some donors of the 2015 Indiegogo a bound copy of the script that didn't get one." Well, if it's the version of the script that I already read, it isn't very good.

    I'm so angry about it that I'm not going to say anymore.

    When a dog pisses on a fire hydrant, it's just being a dog.

    That email means Alec Peters is just being a dog.

    Is there a half-hour script out there? I only remember the execrable feature script that leaked.

    Yep, it came out around when the lawsuit with director #3 hit. It's likely on Axamonitor somewhere

    Okay, I had to know what these hit-worthy stupid questions were. Source.

    I missed donating to the Axanar Kickstarter. Can I still donate?

    Can I still get a DVD or Blu-Ray of Prelude to Axanar?

    I donated to the March, 2014 Prelude to Axanar Kickstarter. When will my perks arrive?

    When will the digital download be available to donors?

    I haven’t received anything yet. What should I do.

    Are you shipping perks for the feature film’s fundraiser that ended in August of 2014?

    When will the Backerkit email be sent out?

    How do I change my address?

    Can I upgrade my donation that was made to the feature’s fundraiser?

    I'm guessing it's the "I haven't received the stuff you haven't sent yet" question that got annoying.

    All these "stupidest" questions were avoidable by... sending out the perks that were paid for in good faith.

    :eek: Shocking... the sheer nerve of these people to politely ask about what they're owed!

    How dumb are you to get in on the scam pyramid scheme at this point? A kickstarter to pay for the perks of a previous kickstarter from years ago that they’re straight up telling you they never bothered to honor. But donate to this one, we’ll totally honor it, promise.*

    *with proceeds from a future kickstarter in 2027

    I really hate to say this but I really like that bridge design, a nice updating to the TOS without going over the top tech like the current offerings
