I don't know the Canon, but I'm not sure if the story is really that bad. Not all of the 32 billion might be Mary Sues. Some might be bit characters (easily tricked into crashing).
Since you're new, here's a laser-proof scimitar from the Raven Armory. (It wasn't laser-proof until I had someone tamper with it.)

it's always starting stuff that I have the most problem with. Guh. What exactly is this 'Pink Stuff' though?

the satisfaction that, while the Emperor of the main race of my alliance was also a Goa'uld, he was evil and wanted control over everything. After people found out he was a Goa'uld, civil war FTW.

I've heard that some people weren't impressed with Season Five (mostly because of Keller), but you're the first I've met. :D I've never actually seen Season Five (no TV connection), so I'm waiting for the DVD release.

I didn't think *hits self on head with a pillow*, now if you'll excuse me there is a certain cat with a habit of walking on peoples faces when they trying to sleep that I need to ... talk to ... then maybe finaly I can up catch on a few minutes sleep so that I don't make any more mistakes.

I know that feeling. You have my deepest sympathies, and also some Pink Stuff, if you feel up to it.

How would I go about changing my e-mail address for this account? Or is that even possible, since my e-mail address is what is used to sign in?

I don't want to keep having to check my old e-mail just to see whether or not someone's replied to a post I made on these boards.

This Board is an international one. Please be considerate and either stop throwing out spoilers for shows that only aired in the past two days, use HTML to hide them or give a warning that you're about to spoil. Some people won't have had a chance to watch Children of Earth yet, and you're being rather rude by spoiling it for them in this manner.

Could you also please consider using proper spelling, grammar and punctuation? It's getting a bit painful to read your posts.

Can't really comment too much on the second one, not having read the book it's based on. It looks pretty bad, though, in terms of Sueishness (of course they have magical mind-reading powers...and mysterious visions...*bangs head against wall a few times*) And it looks to have serious timeline issues with regards to their ages. (This is the problem with usurping an immortal character's place in a story that spans sixty years :P).

As for the first one, though...words fail me. KILL!

... who has seen the light like Egeria and has found a way to undedetectable create this perfect society that the Goua'uld don't want to destroy yet it is a civilisation which is perfectly fine with the Tok'ra and Earth even though it won't help the Goa'uld (as they wrong and evil) but won't help Earth (as "Ninmah" doesn't want to betray her people) they're like the Ascended yet their not Ascended. Oh and its set before series 9 so they have a valid excuse not to fight the Ori.

I think I smell a Mary Sue ... Oh Dear gods no the 456 from Torchwood: Children of Earth are Mary Sues ... it Makes perfect sense: the ability to survive a completely toxic atmosphere, the Destruction of the torchwood hub (classic Villan Sue) and their Message "WE ARE COMING BACK TOMMOROW" (which means today now). Every Doctor Who and Torchwood Mary Sue is going to come back to life At 9PM GMT by possesing evey child on earth in the doctor who universe ... What Are we going to do?!

he isn't an aircraft carrier so he doesn't have to worry about a massive airal disaster and the Sea Monsters are either Non Sapient/Sentient super weapons, Non Sapient/Sentient mutants or Cosmic horrors created by their being to many mary sues in the multiverse (or a mixture of the three) so their either Non Sapient/Sentient or their pure undiluted evil which is trying to detroy all life in which case I honestly just want to stop them.

but that would mean I would have to accept the Stargate:Atlantis finale as an actual episode which I just can't do.

I'd have to accept that they wasted an entire episode in a paralel reality playing CSI, I'd have to accept that was should have been an epic space battle like the end of season 7 but was instead a complete disapointmen, I'd have to accept that the IOA got hit with an idiot ball and moved the chair to Area 51 instead of keeping it antartica, I'd have to accept that Status Quo is as god when its clearly a Goa'uld and that they could have killed ***** off and actually made it terrifying instead of going all comic book death on us.

No, I'm going to wait for hotpoint to write his XSGCOM version of Atlantis on http://www.tthfanfic.org/ as it'll make me feel a hundred times better. But if you want to incorprate a Super hive in to the plan go for it just don't tell me where you found it.

BTW if we end up on Plan C we'll be risking damaging canon so lets hope we either get plan A or B to work or we come up with a better plan as Plan C is pure desperation incarnate and plan D is even worse.

sorry about the footnotes i'll try and cut back to one or two footnotes at most.

Secondly the problem is that a population of 32 billion or 82 billion (the author thinking of changing it) maintain a fleet of twelve thousand Hatak vessels when its commonwealth is spread across only 27 planets. Which is like 27 worlds in star wars maintaing 12000 star destroyers. it's impossible for dozens of reason especiallly consdering that the majoritiy of those people are going to be on a few of those planets which will be industrilised while the rest will be farm worlds for maintaing their common wealth.

I don't think in the entire history of the goa'uld that there have been more than a 1000 ha'taks due to the resource cost of building and maintaing one as the current standard ha'tak is mothership is a 700 meter long, 650 meter wide, 315 meter deep vessel with 60 staff cannons with a shield that can withstand an estimated at 1 gigaton of explosive force without it having any measurable decrease of the shield's power; The fact is, at least, that it consumes naquadah as fuel. We could expect the naquadah to be a refined version which may be as potent as weapon-grade naquadah and provide high power. Although much of this is open to speculation, it's more than likely that Goa'uld reactors are fusion based.
To maintain such a fleet would be impossible for such a civilisation the only way to be able to do so would require a galactic spaning empire or for it to be a Mary sue Utopia.

And that with out considering that the goa'uld are paranoid
about being found out as false gods aand are less stable than the average agent they'd destroy said civilisation in its infancy. Like how they treat Harcesis children and the Tok'ra. the only way for this Ninmah to be able to stop the goa'uld from stopping her would be mind control.

Also she has a change of heart about how she treats her subjects which only Egeria he founder of the tok'ra movement (due to being a Goa'uld Queen she literally spawned the movement) has ever done (the tok'ra don't count due to the fact that goa'uld genetic memories are controled by the queen who makes the Goa'uld.

And there is the fact that Stargate command never give up hope they have been fighting against enemies far greater than them since they stepped through the stargate. Even when there is no hope and the light at the end of the tunnel is a flame thrower mounted on a train they always find a way to win and with 4 months prep time they'd have found a way to stop this commonwealth.

And finaly they trust this commonwealth even after it was going to kill all life on earth.

I could go on but then I'd get in trouble due to spending to much time on the net and quite frankly I've babbled for long enough and I'm probably getting self righteous and annoying (if I am I appoligise).

Note: info from http://stargate.wikia.com/, also refrences to Tv tropes are made.

but what about a Wraith Hive ship with three ZPMs powering it?

Let's hope he won't end like the previous ones. And don't forget he won't participate in killing people. That includes the Sea Monster, if it's sentient. And this ship is his own person, your penguins will have a very hard time dictating him anything against his ethics.

"The premise of the conflict is well laid out"

I'll take your word for that, not having any interest in the fic, but what about what happened before this conflict?

How on earth would the Goa'uld not know about these people? When the Tau'ri (us) started to become a threat, the System Lords began to form alliances against them. If this random commonwealth has twenty-seven planets and twelve thousand Ha'taks, then the Goa'uld would surely have called upon all of their forces and laid waste to every planet in the commonwealth.

And, depending on when the fic is set, why didn't these guys help out against the Ori?

*looks at second paragraph* Hmm... come to think of it, I once had a group of races like that (though with fewer ships). I can't remember why the Goa'uld didn't attack them, but I think it was a good reason. Meh. That fic is likely to never exist again anyway.

Glorgathon, Devourer of Worlds, as I used as a placeholder name until I could come up with one, is not an acceptable elf name.

My navy Penguins have been cheered up no end as budget cuts due to my Penguin Air force accidently sinking their Carrier fleet due to a rather over entusiastic young Penguin who had only become sapient(1) 3 months before causing a rather large arial incidence meaning they've only had 5 small lifeboats to operate from which annoyed them no end Now with The Cuauhtemoc they can deal with the sea monster problem ... by the way keep Apprentice Overkill away from planes as we revoked his flying privilages because ... of a ... incodent involving ... noodles ... and due to being 6 months old he doesn't really listen to authoritie figures so just keep him away from planes.

(1)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sapience (we give the Penguins Sapience 3 months after their birth we tried to give to them earlier but the test subjects became pascifist hippies which when running a supersoldier project is highly annoying

I am so stuck on the writing sample.

Okay, the fic isn't going to win any awards, but it doesn't suck, either. The premise of the conflict is well laid out, everyone seems to be in character, and I don't see what's wrong with using diplomacy to solve problems.

Furthermore, I looked over your review and the author's response. I didn't read them fully, because your use of footnotes (and footnotes within footnotes) is, frankly, annoying. However, based on what I did read, your concerns were well-answered, and the responses make enough sense for me. As the author points out, the fic doesn't contain any more plotholes on average than SG-1 itself, so I don't think we need to be getting up in arms over it.

If you intend to hang around the Board with us, that's cool--you're quite welcome to do so--but please calm down and make an effort to spell, capitalize, and punctuate your posts properly in the future, preferably with paragraphs at appropriate intervals. And please, please ditch the footnotes.

My Agents will like it. Enjoy your sailing on the Cuauhtemoc.

Thank you for you kind gift, Please have this genetically modified(1) super soldier Penguin(2) which has been trained to kill Mary sues in 30972.876 ways in return for your generosity.

Language: English (change)

We might not be able to use Sun crushers due to the fact that there is a canon way to destroy stars(1) in the stargate universe meaning that we may have to get past a fleet of 12,000 (posibly 24,000) hat'ak mother ships(2) one of their ha’taks is easily a match for two System Lord flagships while their squadron flagships(3)could take on an Asgard vessel on even terms. their foot-soldiers have weaponry far superior to staff weapons(4). Seeing how out matched we are in terms of tech I have come up with a plan A, a Plan B, a plan C and a plan D .

Plan A requires we capture the Temple at Dakara(5) so that we can use the Dakara superweapon(6) in conjunction with the stargate network(7), then we use the weapon in its basic mode to destroy all matter on the 27 planets and the surrounding space, then we'll hide away for a few months so as to not be killed for killing 32 billion Mary Sues(8), while we hide away(9) we'll steal Asgard Black hole tech(10) then when the hunt for us dies down a bit(11) we'll use said tech (while ensuring no canons are in those solar systems) to turn one or more of the stars in to a black hole (depending how close the systems are). there are flaws to the plan as Dakara is an important planet(5) controlled by Baal meaning we have to take the system with out killing the canons which will be hard and then we'll have to put them somewhere safe so that when we trigger the Dakara superweapon from the nicely shielded control room they won't all be erased from existence.

If that fails we will have to go to plan B) taking control of the Ascension machine(14)so that we can Ascend say 27 Agents and then have them destroy the solar systems, of course we don't know if the Ascended have been affected by the mary sues and may/may not try and stop us(15).

If that fails we go to Plan C) we tell the Ori(17) about the existence of the Akkadian Commonwealth and hope that they can destroy them.

If the Ori lose the war(18) then we will be forced to go to plan D) FULL SCALE WAFARE against the Akkadian Commonwealth as Canon will be so Warped that we'll have to use everything at our disposal. To do so we shall bring the Attero device(19) to the Milky way galaxy, if we can we'll turn off the stargate network (with the exception of the Akkadian Commonwealths stargates) and then turn the Attero device on (regardless of whether the stargate network can be turned off) with it set to destroy Goa'uld Ha'taks, we'll wake up the Wraith and give them intergalactic hyperdrives and tell them about the Akkadian Commonwealth while detonating ZPMs(20) next to Akkadian Commonwealth stars basically the gloves will come off and we'll do whatever is in are power to restore stargate canon.

Hopefully Either someone will come up with a better plan or we'll succeed at plan A As plan B, C and D are filled with too much risk (not to say that plan A isn't risky but it's less likely to go horribly wrong)

(2) there is no distinguishment between normal ha’taks, Ha'taks enhanced with ancient weaponry and Anubis' mothership which is very very bad as the vagueness means they can basically rip to pieces any ship we could "borrow"

(3) never mind the fact that no one has enough hat'ak mother ships to have Squadrons!

(4) They appear to have guns but could be armed with other weapons

(7)using a 'hack' of the DHD's correlative update function we'll dial every Stargate in the Akkadian Commonwealth simultaneously

(8) Unfortunately due to the massive canon alteration on such a large scale I calculate a 99.7% chance that the canon characters and civilisations will still all adore the Akkadian Commonwealth meaning that they will see are attack as a crime against humanity. we won't be able to move freely until we destroy the Akkadian Commonwealth systems and thus reset canon.

(9) possibly at head quarters

(11) Due to Stargate Command decreased ability to plan, the mellowing of the Asgard(12) due to the Akkadian Commonwealth

(12) they said they weren't ruthless enough which is insane as the Asgard destroyed their own home world to stop the replicators(13)
