Hello! I’m the other new (well, new-ish) person around here. Have some new member questions, in no particular order!

-Who’s your favorite Doctor, and why?

-Which episode’s your favorite, and why?

-What’s your favorite villain?

My answers are:

-Eleven, because he’s the one that got me interested in the show,

-I……[Read more]

@missy

Seeing yourself being born would be disturbing on so many levels.

So close…

Why, December? Why can’t you get here faster?

@thedentistofdavros

Really? You find Alpha, Beta, and Omega creepy? Honestly, I just can’t help but giggle when I hear them, for the aforementioned drunk and helium reasons.

“DIZZY- DIZZY- DIZZY- DOCTOR!”

@puroandson @thedentistofdavros @missy @1997whovian @Theconsultingdoctor

I took the quiz too! I got Cerulean, and then I took it again and got Arcal.

I also took the Sparta quiz, because it looked fun. I also got old age, which apparently has all the sane answers!

Slightly off topic, but there’s no thread for it. I checked. Also, SPOILERS.…[Read more]

@1997whovian Hello! My favorite Doctor is Matt Smith, but Capaldi is awesome too. Favorite episode… I don’t know, but if I had to pick right now it would either be Dalek or Asylum of the Daleks.

Favorite companion is a Classic Who companion, Ace. Ace is different from other companions because instead of standing there and screaming or running…[Read more]

SPOILER, SPOILER, SPOILER...

@pedant

That’s… that’s horrible! Why are people doing that? I mean, I can understand being a bit upset over the way your favorite character is being portrayed, but DEATH THREATS?!? Why?

@puroandson

Wait, there IS a music thread? Huh. I did not know that.

@missy

I was just quoting the song. Nothing really clever about that.

@puroandson

Music thread sounds like a great idea!

About paradoxes…

“Oh my god, I don’t have a clue, these paradoxes are hard to construe. My mind is blown, I bet yours is too, well I guess this is Doctor Whoooooooo…” So true. 🙂 It’s what makes the show so awesome.

I have just discovered the band Chameleon Circuit and they’re really good! Here’s one of their songs. SPOILERS FOR ANYONE WHO HASN’T WATCHED THE SERIES 5 FINALE.

I hope everyone likes it too.

@mersey

I believe that they handwaved it by saying that they don’t remember it until Eleven because of Timeline Crossing Physics or something else timey-wimey.

@desamintion

I don’t know where it’s from, but I can see why you want to find the video. The gif is really funny.

@epikrocket

I certainly got a positive impression from the preview, but the three-episode-rule has to be implemented before I make final judgement on whether I think she’s any good or not.

@cedarbranchtardis

The Doctor has a regeneration cycle. There are 13 lives per cycle.

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-8.5/War-9-10-10-11

If he runs out of lives (11) then he dies for good next time.

However, at the end of The Time of The Doctor, he was granted another cycle.

12-13-14-15-16-17-18-19-20-21-22-23-24

We’re currently on 12. That means that…[Read more]

@kbranagh

For the third one: Maybe Rassilon put the confession dial in a pocket dimension where time ran at a different speed, so it was 4 billion years where the dial was, but only a couple months or so on their end?

I mean, the Time Lords can canonically create other dimensions (IE Tardis Interiors) and they are TIME Lords, so maybe it’s…[Read more]

@thedentistofdavros

I still think that it got retconned out, since the Daleks that we see are squids in pepperpots. Take Caan, for example:

@morpho

Well, a pure robot wouldn’t really be able to hate, would it? It would just be algorithms. Also, maybe the whole robot idea was just unpopular, so the BBC retconned it out?

I have a philosophical question.

Is a Dalek still a Dalek if it’s not a squid in a lumpy pepperpot anymore?
