15:16:55 [MissParker] It's week 4 for LJ login...that's me...so I'll go do it..brb
15:17:03 [MrZenith] I am barely here, though.
15:27:54 [MissParker] ok...i was already logged in...cookie...hope you enjoy the drive nonetheless Q!
15:28:22 [MissParker] Shall we talk about new addresses for Fox?
15:28:43 [MissParker] Do you guys need 5 min to go scour the webpage to look for one?!
15:29:01 [MissParker] I can give the Sims update in the meantime...
15:31:03 [Ruben20] I have not found anyone beyond the latest ones. On that, has anyone sent any letters? (don't be afraid to say no if you haven't - it's just important that we know) - also, MissParker, have you recived the sase?
15:32:10 [krisrussel] I actually think we should start focussing our actions on scifi...
15:32:23 [MissParker] No SASE yet...I will email Melissa
15:32:25 [MissParker] Sim 1 still enroute....
15:32:53 [Ruben20] Why Sci-fi?
15:33:03 [MissParker] Same for Sim 2...according to the blogs at Fox forum
15:33:30 [MissParker] Because they recently brought back a series to life...right kris?
15:33:46 [krisrussel] indeed MP
15:33:58 [krisrussel] several of them actually...
15:34:14 [krisrussel] some of them only online, but that would be good for us too, right?
15:34:18 [Ruben20] Oh?
15:34:43 [krisrussel] Farscape and Babylon 5 for example
15:35:51 [MissParker] Yes kris...at this point I am willing to consider an online series....as long as it's the original characters of course
15:35:51 [Ruben20] I Babylon 5 back? That's amazing. I never thought that would be revised.
15:36:45 [krisrussel] exactly...
15:37:45 [MissParker] But are there actually any SciFi PTB...or is it just NBC Universal we have to write to?
15:38:17 [krisrussel] I actually have no idea about that... I think there are scifi ptb...
15:38:17 [MissParker] http://www.nbcuni.com/
15:38:53 [MissParker] Email relating to Scifi channel should be sent to : feedback@scifi.com
15:39:10 [Ruben20] Still, we do need an address to Fox when the GGL get's on it's way
15:39:28 [MissParker] Yes we definitely do
15:39:45 [krisrussel] very true Ruben
15:45:43 [MissParker] I think we need someone to make phone calls at this point, in case our last round of letters also come up "empty".
15:46:33 [MissParker] I have drafted a letter to USA Network....because of JD in Burn Notice...should we go ahead and draft a "template" letter to email to Scifi channel now?
15:47:02 [MissParker] sent the letter by email
15:47:07 [krisrussel] ok
15:47:21 [MissParker] Hope I remember to check my hotmail acct for a response next week
15:48:00 [MissParker] Outline: First paragraph: talk about The Pretender, a brief synopsis
15:48:31 [Ruben20] (anyone who'd make a phone call would be reciving a kiss on the feets from a kneeling Ruben with soft, soft lips)
15:48:43 [MissParker] Second paragraph: reason for writing-we want Scifi channel to consider reviving tP as a miniseries, tv movie etc
15:49:20 [krisrussel] lol
15:49:26 [MissParker] I think I will have to blow some of my minutes on a long distance call when I get my brand new phone next week...
15:49:26 [krisrussel] ok
15:49:39 [MissParker] if we don't get any takers....not just for the kiss!
15:49:42 [MissParker]
15:50:21 [MissParker] Third paragraph: Justification for bringing it back? talk about other revived series
15:50:26 [krisrussel]
15:50:52 [MissParker] what else can we say?
15:51:02 [krisrussel] good idea
15:51:16 [krisrussel] I think that's about it I think...
15:52:56 [MissParker] how about adding something about marketing licensed products?
15:53:10 [MissParker] just remembered that from reading something on nbcuni site
15:53:49 [krisrussel] what do you mean by that? cups and t-shirts and stuff like that?
15:54:02 [MissParker] Yeah...I mean there is great potential there...if they do it wisely..
15:54:17 [MissParker] I know lots of fans who want tP stuff...especially the pez!
15:54:35 [krisrussel] DUH!!
15:54:37 [krisrussel]
15:55:32 [krisrussel] was there ever some decent tP merchandise?
15:56:46 [MissParker] none i ever heard of
15:57:06 [MissParker] I'm pretty sure I would have heard of something...even if I did come late to the fandom
15:57:13 [krisrussel] thought so too... lot of potential there
15:57:22 [krisrussel] indeed...
15:58:08 [MissParker] right...so we have the outline...I say we can all draft a letter to Sci-fi and send by email...we can copy to nbcuni by snail mail perhaps...if we have a SASE...?
15:58:30 [krisrussel] ok
15:58:34 [MissParker] Snail mail addy: NBCUNI.COM FEEDBACK
15:58:39 [MissParker] 100 Universal City Plaza
15:58:43 [MissParker] Universal City, CA 91608
15:59:37 [MissParker] Email for general questions: NBCUniSupport@nbcuni.com <NBCUniSupport@nbcuni.com>
16:00:30 [MissParker] I suppose we should introduce ourselves in the first paragraph as well...nothing too long...
16:00:43 [krisrussel] good idea
16:01:40 [MissParker] ok that's about it...next week, we'll report on that...if anyone needs their letter proofed...i'm sure mattali would be happy to volunteer! Or I can help!
16:01:51 [MissParker] We should try to get them sent soon...
16:01:56 [MissParker] Moving on...
16:02:08 [krisrussel] ok
16:02:13 [MissParker] The campaign site...proofreading...has anyone had a chance to look at that?
16:02:46 [MissParker] I'm thinking I need to assign specific articles for each person to check...what do you all think?
16:03:22 [krisrussel] good idea
16:24:27 [MissParker] Ok...Q & Z (is he here...?)...do you think you will follow through if I assign you an article to read/proof?
16:25:05 [Quibus] I will try to.
16:25:16 [Quibus] he is here, somewhere.
16:25:45 [MrZenith] Z is in the hereness.
16:26:20 [MissParker] lol
16:27:57 [MissParker] ok....i am assigning you both articles...as well as Ruben and kris...will post assignments to you by email...that might be easiest for me...than figuring out where to post for everyone to see!
16:29:31 [MissParker] actually I can give you your assignment now..
16:29:45 [MissParker] Q: Letter Writing: Magazines & Entertainment Publications: http://www.campaign.pretendercentre.com/index.php?page=20
16:30:24 [MissParker] Z: Giant Letter & Red Notebook Projects: http://www.campaign.pretendercentre.com/index.php?page=14

16:31:29 [MissParker] Ruben: Harpo Hookup: http://www.campaign.pretendercentre.com/index.php?page=11
16:31:43 [MrZenith] Z's article looks good.
16:33:05 [MissParker] ok...you sure!?!
16:33:21 [MissParker] because I will say Z says you may bless it!
16:34:50 [MrZenith] bless away.
16:34:50 [Quibus] can't read all of mine right now but the first two paragraphs look good.
16:35:16 [MissParker] lol ok Z, ok Q that's cool
16:35:42 [MissParker] just let me know when you're done, Q...you can post a message to me somewhere....
16:36:08 [MissParker] I think that's it for today's chat....any burning issues...?
