- The Atlantis crew. Is that what we call them? Can we call them Atlanteans now? Something else? How about the mission teams? Do they have designations ala SG teams? Are they going to start calling Shep, McKay, Ford and Teyla "AG1" or something?
Yeah, that one's already been asked of me when in sort-of-beta mode. Shep's called his lot his "team" at least once, but... err...
Also, how many people are there in Atlantis? Did they ever say?
Umm... err... don't think so.
So far they've lost only Sumner, so that's not too bad, but how many did they bring? What's the ratio of scientist types to military?
So far I'd *guess* there's more scientists, and the Athosians certainly drag it over into civvie-majority, I reckon. Dude, Shep's the highest-ranking officer, so how many of them can there be?
Who's doing all the dirty jobs that have to be done in any society?
The Athosians are for cleaning and sex, yo.
It must have an address in the dialing computer, right? Is that all they're calling it? What about the mainland? Like nostalgia_lj mentioned, we're not gonna call it Atlantica. That's just stupid, yo. Everyone agreed Ford didn't get to name anything.
Fuck knows... so far I'd say they're gonna stick with "Atlantis" and "the mainland". For naming is EFFORT.
- Those nifty little Dell Inspiron laptops (which look exactly like mine, except mine's blue and silver, heh), are those running only on battery power? I never see them plugged into any walls. Are they on a network? Can they actually talk to other computers? It's not like they have a local ISP in Pegasus.
They communicate with magic. No, really, they do it in 38 Minutes so it MUST be magic.
- The different colored uniforms.
This is so they know who to eat first when the food runs out.
- Everyone has the same watch. They're big and bulky and I'm not sure I like them. How'd they decide what time it is in Atlantis? How long are the days on Atlantis? Months? Years? Did the Ancients leave old versions of calendars lying around so they'd know?
I assume they just stayed on... Colorado's EST, right? Which you could do if the day's near *enough* to 24 hours, with the odd adjustment every now and then. ("Right, we've got to lose an hour, so everyone just sleep more, k?")
- Did Daniel finally figure out the entire Ancient language and teach it to everyone? Is he the author of The Language of the Ancients for Dummies"? Weir and McKay seem to be fluent already
Weir I could give the headstart that she knows Latin and they seem to be related in some way. Err... MAGIC! MAGIC! *flails*
Who decided who got which quarters? Did the main staff get first pick?
ooh! There's canon! Ish! Living space they seem to have just set up wherever they could. There's a line in Hide And Seek about Shep being a lazy bitch about okaying enough rooms.
How do you get from the Jumper Bay to the Gateroom?
MAGIC!!!!!!!
And yet, they try to trade medicines for food. Morons. What happens when you run out?
They're so damn blase about that right now. I hope they start getting a bit more paranoid about supplies once they realised they are STUCK THERE FOREVER!!
Somewhere down the road, are all the women in Atlantis going to resort to sticking cloth rags in their panties once a month? Are they all taking some sort of drug so they won't have to deal with it?
When the tampons run out... err... I think it's gonna have to be rags. ><
Please tell us more about how the Wraith do what they do.
FUCKING MAGIC!! DAMN YOU!
Before they killed Steve, did Carson take a sample of that chemical they inject?
I like to fanon that they totally kept bits of Steve. And hopefully a sample of the Hoffan vaccine.
