trinityvixenOn a more or less serious note, depending on the day and my escalating levels of excitement, I was looking at the completed versus claimed lists over at the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
1character fanfic challenge for Battlestar Galactica.
Some of you might remember ::COUGHCOUGH:: that I completed a 1character challenge for Starbuck a few months ago, agonizing over every bit of it until I drove![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
feiran mad (in all senses of the word). Well, I'm looking over the claims list, and shoot my monkey if Kara Thrace hasn't been chosen two times again, with one other person completing their challenge (I believe ivy03 pointed out the other completed Starbuck challenge originally). Besides Starbuck, Helo is the only other one so favored. I was prepared to laugh if Apollo didn't have any takers, but it seems someone's claimed the whiny git.
Not surprisingly, there's a real bias towards the pilots in this fanfic thing, though Admiral Adama and President Roslin are slated to get their due. I wonder, though, when there are so many other characters that share equal time to the pilots that none have been claimed. Only the one Cylon has been claimed, and I bet you can guess who. But not Six? For shame. Maybe it's because Six is too transcendantly cool to write. I understand not picking Baltar--woo, is he crazy to write--but how about Chief Tyrol? The XO? Admiral Cain? Where's the non-pilot love, y'all?
(Okay, so I can't really talk, but I chose Starbuck first, damn it.)

Also: Kudos to the writer/artist for VGCats saying Pokemon Snap was the only non-annoying Pokemon game. If they have that on the Wii, I will pay to download it onto anyone I know who gets a Wii's machine because I friggin loved that game.
