"One little change has a ripple effect and it affects everything else."

One theme that is pretty much inescapable for science fiction is time travel: Stargate SG-1 played with this theme several times, even including actual time travel episodes like 1969, 2010Moebius and the Continuum movie. Of course, fanfiction writers just love to pick up where TPTB left off or, er, improve an alternate timeline because they felt it was lacking... something. Sometimes it's just the 'ship that needs an extra bit of attention but there are also some great stories out there involving alternate timelines that are very original.

In today's post, we're gonna take a look at a number of nominations for the Sam & Jack Multimedia Awards in the...

Best Alternate Timeline category!



Jack takes a little trip, meddles with cause and effect, and thoroughly confuses himself along the way.







Meeting the Aschen was everything SG-1 could have hoped for in their continuing fight against the Goa'uld. Or is it? An AU take on the episodes '2010' and '2001'. Character death as in the show but with a twist, S/J focused.





Strangers on a Train by CSIGurlie07


It began with a train ride. Jack isn't sure he wants it to end. And he doesn't know why. Set during the vague "One Year" of Continuum.




That's it for today! Don't worry, we'll be back soon with more highlights for this and other categories. The nomination period is almost at an end and with it, the time to register to vote for the Sam & Jack Multimedia Awards is as well! Don't forget to sign up or you won't receive a ballot once voting opens. Oh and don't mistake submitting noms (with your contact info) with registering to vote: these are two separate things.
