Riceball 150 Posted April 16, 2019 As TL, it's your job to apply for fan tables at local cons and get people to man them. Of, course, you can delegate this task to others as you see fit. You can also organize get togethers for your team, at least for those in your local area. And if there are other events in where SG costumers would be welcome, like charitable events, it would the TL's job to get people for it. It's not a whole lot of work and like I said earlier, you don't necessarily need to handle it all personally, you can designate someone to be on the look out for cons and other events and let you know that they might be good for the team to go to and represent SG-Command at. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Riceball.. that clears things up abit. The organising get together s for your team(s) at cons and at other events in where SG costumers would be welcome, like charitable events, and looking out for/ informing our team(s) about cons that actors are at and representing SG makes sence. I sort of half do that anyway on other media were i know SG-fans. I think wen SG-23 reaches 8+ Team Members, id like to put myself forward for Assistant Team Leader if that,s ok?

Dan, thank you for offering to take up the role of Assistant Team Leader. I would like to stand down from the Team Leader Role. I am posting here rather than Pm's so that we can all see and take part in the discussion. I am shown as Team Leader, by the fact that I came and registered us as SG-23. I am not very good at organising things and I am not active at cons etc, although in the future I may go to one or two. Would someone like to step up for the role of: 1. Team Leader. 2. Assistant Team Leader. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you want to you are free too.. im not good at organising things ether....lol..well i might be ok at some of it. this year im only attending 2 cons (so far) , Cal Mah in September and Wales Comic Con end of April..both having SG actors going.

Honcho 175 Posted April 20, 2019 When teams get big enough for more localized groups to form up, we form them up as Detachments. So lets say you get a group of 4 folks in Scotland, and the rest are spread throughout the rest of the UK, the group in Scotland could be formed up as a Detachment of SG-23. The main unit would be Detachment Alpha, the second subgroup in this example the Scotland group, they would be Detachment Bravo or known as SG-23B, the next subgroup would be Detachment Charlie, then Delta, then Echo, etc... All members would still use their SG-23 Team patch. Canonically, SG-25 is the largest Team number used on the show. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boss 13 Posted April 24, 2019 Hi everyone, I am Kevin, originally from Switzerland, but have been living in Cumbria, UK (obviously) for the past 13 years. I watched the original Stargate when it got released waaaayyyyy back when I was younger and also SG-1 for a few seasons in the 90s. I only recently re-discovered it and been hooked again. I have done a few cons in UK and Germany, usually cosplay as Star Trek (sorry) but will do more Stagate now, with Wales this week my first outing as SG-1 member together with my wife. Thanks to Cathy, who first mentioned this forum, and Dan for reminding me after I forgot all about it again... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Creeping Spleen 26 Posted April 24, 2019 Greetings from sunny Scotland. 😃 I'm Ronnie, AKA The Creeping Spleen. Been a fan of Stargate since day one. Member of informal Scottish SG team SG-999. Which was formed in late 1999, in the bar of the Thistle Hotel (now the Hilton Doubletrees) in Glasgow, during a lull in that year's Scottish Star Trek con. Being the only bald guy on the team, I soon got roped into being a Jaffa - Bru'Tak by name. In universe, SG-999 (AKA The Gatecrashers) are the SGC's dedicated combat search and rescue unit. Providing medical aid, technical assistance, and heavy weapons fire support for the SG team in danger on a hostile planet. In reality, our plan was to put together an all-in-one package of first aid cover and event security to sci-fi and fantasy conventions in central Scotland. Unfortunately for us, the Scottish convention scene collapsed in early 2002, just as we were about to launch. This is us at the Wolf Events "Shanks & Judge" mini-con in Glasgow. I'm the one with the Staff Weapon to Chris Judge's left. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Honcho 175 Posted April 24, 2019 Great going SG-23, you are up to 10 members! You are officially the largest SG-Team in the World to date! You definitely will need an ATL. How you decide to pick the ATL is up to the Team Leader. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
