Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Wallbangers in this series:

  • They allowed the ship that they are on to be taken over by an enemy that they LET come through their Stargate.
    • They have no control over incoming dials. Blocking the gate would have resulted in the death of dr. Rush.
  • A coup attempt took place, and no one suffered any repercussions when it failed.
    • Any repercussions would have solidified the whole "military junta" image, and would have led to all out civil war.
  • Scientists who should know better decide to leave the safety and security of their ship to stay on a planet IN ANOTHER GALAXY because they think, without evidence or proof, that doing so MIGHT provide them with a way home.
    • The planet had a weird effect on the people.
  • They don't search the Ancients' database in Atlantis for a way to repair the ship, nor use the communication stones to get specialists who could do that work for the ship they are stranded on. Instead, the communication stones are used for a series of largely meaningless contacts with family members and friends on Earth. Priorities, people...
    • Because seeing people look at a computer screen is a great way to fill an episode. Whenever the communication stones are used for personal reasons, only two are used. That means three more are available for specialists, consulting with earth administration and beating up people who slept with your wife.
  • Going to the Destiny at all, instead of to Earth and then waiting for another planet to try again.
    • ...that was kind of explained in the first episode.
    • For that matter, all of these were explained or obvious.
