"The Homecoming"/"The Circle"/"The Siege" Line-by-Line!

O'Brien: Listening to Kira about all he was, all he did, all he was going to do, she makes him sound like he was larger than life. Like he was some kind of military genius. But the Li Nalas I-
 
SISKO: Chief, Li Nalas was the hero of the Bajoran resistance. He performed extraordinary acts of courage for his people and died for their freedom. That's how the history books on Bajor will be written, and that's how I'll remember him when anybody asks.
 
On the Promenade, people being to arrive through the airlock. O'Brien moves against traffic to get into the airlock.

Jake comes out of the airlock and sees Sisko.

Jake: Dad!

Jake and Sisko hug and start walking along the promenade.

Life on the station slowly returns to normal.
 
What can happen on these is that there's a beginning rush, where they'll be a lot of activity, after that there's a lull where people will post at a lighter pace.

On 2 parters and 3 parters that lull can last awhile until the thread gets to within striking distance of the end.

Then usually 2 or more posters will go to the finish. Single shot episodes the beginning rush and the striking distance phases can be very close to each other, making them go very fast.
 
Congrats, everyone!

I was away from the BBS yesterday, so I didn't get the randomization process under way. However, LeadHead has been kind enough to compile the list of participants for me, as he's (it is "he," right? :) ) been doing for the last several threads. I will toss them into the randomizer and be back with the results before you can say "Adjust the sine wave of this magnetic envelope so that anti-neutrons can pass through it but anti-gravitons cannot," backward seventeen times.
 
The participants from our current thread are as follows:

1. CoveTom
2. leandar
3. Admiral Shran
4. Vanyel
5. LeadHead
6. KirkPicard
7. Alienesse
8. Brian
9. Vulcan Princess
10. Enterprise1981
11. Ziz
12. JanewayRulz!
13. Skywalker

Those names should be in the order in which each person first posted to the thread. No "weight" is given for who posted more or less often. Special thanks to LeadHead for compiling the list!

(If anyone has been inadvertently left off the list of participants, please let me know and I'll try to make it up on the next go-around.)

And now, it's time for random.org to do it's magic...

*drumroll*

Vanyel!

So, Vanyel, the next move is yours. Would you like to select the next episode we are going to do line-by-line? You are free to select the next episode or pass and I will re-run the randomization.

Once a new episode has been chosen, I will fire up the next line-by-line thread in the appropriate forum and post the link here.

NOTE: As has been agreed, when a person is selected as the "chooser," they will have 48 hours to post their selection. After 48 hours, I will assume they "pass" and will re-run the randomization.
