Hello fellow Stargaters, my name is Matthew R Dunn of the Tau'ri and I am a big Science-fiction fan, with my favourites including Star Trek: Voyager, Battlestar Galactica (2004), Doctor Who, Torchwood, Red Dwarf, Lost and especially Stargate.

I have done quite a lot of work for this wiki for the past three months or so, making over 1,000 edits and even uploading pictures. For a list of what I've worked on, you can see my contributions list.

Fondness for Stargate
I only got into Stargate because my parents watch it. The first episode I've ever seen whole is Window of Opportunity and I loved it. I really got into Stargate since Season eight. Now Stargate is officially my second favourite franchise in the world, after James Bond. Stargate is more-or less a family activity; everyone loves Stargate, apart for one of my sisters, who only likes the odd episode. I love Stargate, one of the reason is because I am absolutely fascinated with the ancient mythological world, I've once been to Egypt and heard several of their myths.

Favourite quotes
Vala: Ow, you hit me. Daniel: You hit me! Vala: Yeah, well we could always just have sex instead.

McKay: Oh it's something like spyware, like my stupidly downloaded por... music, my downloaded music.

McKay: Col. Sheppard would have already had hours to try to make it back through the portal in the time I wasted explaining the situation to Conan (Ronon) and Xena (Teyla)!

Mitchell: Who am I kidding? I knew you were an asshole the moment we met!

McKay: That's what happens when you back a BRILLIANT scientist into a corner!

Alternate Mitchell: Now, let me get this straight. We figured that you guys would try to escape, and we set this trap for you. Not realising that you'd figure out that we'd figure you out, and you set your own. Teal'c: (after a lengthy pause) Indeed.

McKay: Is that really how you want this to go down, huh? You wanna freeze me to death?! You sure you wouldn't rather I imploded with you, you, you, you lemon?!

Ford: Who do you wish was here? Beckett: Nobody, I wish I wasn't bloody here!

Tenat: Damn you, Cam Mitchell!

Jackson: Uh, I have a question? Why would we make the Stargate dissapear before we had a chance to escape from it? Worrel: Bad timing? Jackson: That's got to be the single most stupidest thing I've ever heard.

O'Neill: Five bucks says Carter has a theory.

Prior-Daniel: (Just after being beamed into the Odyssey) Hey!! What took you guys so long!

Carter: I'm not the Samantha Carter you once knew. Alternate-McKay: Oh my God, you're a lesbian, that is what you were trying to say, wasn't it. Carter: What!? No! McKay!

Hayes: Oh, please, I have enough on you to have you shot!

Window of Opportunity
O'Neill: What kind of archeaologist carries a weapon? Jackson: Uh, I do.

Hammond: Colonel O'Neill, what the hell are you doing? O'Neill: In the middle of my backswing!

O'Neill: I'm telling you, Teal'c. If we don't find a way out of this soon I'm going to lose it. Lose it…it means go crazy, nuts, insane, bonzo, no longer in possession of one's faculties, three fries short of a happy meal…WACKO!!!

Stargate dreams
For the past few years I had several dreams about Stargate and I was in a few of them.

SG-1

 * Apophis came back from the dead, but it didn't last long as Teal'c killed him.
 * O'Neill was trapped in a room in the SGC and shot a grand piano with a life of its own!
 * A blue mist made its way into Teal'c and took control of him. He went to Jackson and beats him up, but the mist left Teal'c before killing Jackson.
 * While I was shopping, Jackson was in the same supermarket.
 * SG-1 and me and my friends were in an empty stadium trying to escape from alien bad guys and were shooting at them.
 * Teal'c and Carter where near my home and split up from each other with their own teams.
 * Teal'c shot one of my friends.
 * SG-1 were exploring a typical planet until they stumbled across an army of Ori soldiers. They avoided the Prior, but he noticed them and said the usual "stop in the name of the Ori". Adria came to them and admitted that the Ori aren’t that powerful. Mitchell fired one round from his P-90 into Adria, and it killed her.
 * Carter and Jackson goes to Santorini, Greece where people discovered an Ancient city, similar to Atlantis, but bigger. They found what they thought was the "real Atlantis" and it was buried under rubble from the volcanic eruption 3,500 years ago. They deflooded the city and revived the Ancients from stasis. Fearing they were alien bad guys, the Ancients went to one section of the city and blew themselves up. Carter realises that the Ancients also started a self destruct, which can apparently wipe out half the Earth. They somehow use the 5 ZPMs to absorb the energy of the bomb. It works, but by the time the fifth ZPM was depleted, the self-destruct could still blow up the city. They managed to have escaped by Puddle Jumper before the city blew up, causing an earthquaqe that rocked Santorini. In the end, they called Atlantis in Pegasus the true Atlantis.
 * SG-1 went to a planet where it was contantly raining. They then saw the Scottish band, Travis playing their signiture song.
 * A massive fleet of Goa'uld Ha'tak vessels exits hyperspace over Earth orbit and immediately started to bombard the planet. I was on one of the 304s when the Daedalus, Odyssey, Apollo, Korolev (back from the dead), Phoenix, at least two more 304s, the Prometheus (also back from the dead), another 303 and a new ship (a 305!) came up to fight against them. This was probably set sometime in the near future (maybe in 2012).
 * Jackson got kidnapped by the Mafia, and Carter went to rescue him. She found him in a darkened cellar under some building.
 * Two Ha'tak vessels arrived on Earth and was shot down by what seemed to be Naquadah-enhanced warheads. The Ha'taks crashed over England, causing massive destruction. One hit and destroyed London, whilst the other destroyed the Lake District. I was a hundred miles above the surface watching it happen, it was very scary.

Atlantis

 * Colonel Sheppard's team found an Aurora class warship in a surface of a planet and named it the Pegasus, but as they prepared to go into space, a Wraith on the surface built a massive EMP device and activated it. The Pegasus crash-landed upside down on the ocean and slowly sank, like the film Poseidon, but as they were about to evacuate, a massive sea monster attacked the ship.
 * Sheppard and Teyla were exploring a shopping mall in my home country, and wore full gear. They passed Kolya, but didn't notice him.
 * I kissed Teyla, need I say more?
 * Dr Beckett was treating a woman, one of the Cylon women (A number eight "Boomer" model) in Battlestar Galactica.
 * A group of Ori soldiers has made it to the Pegasus Galaxy! Teyla and Ronon were on the planet and fended them off.
 * McKay flirted with the girl I have a crush on, but she wasn't impressed.
 * Agent Barrett is McKay's half brother.
 * I was in my house, when Zelenka and Lorne were working on something on the stairs, they said it was a secret project, and told me to leave.
 * Some Doctor Who-like villain named the "Q Master" built a spaceship named the Tria for his retirement plans to wreak havok on Earth, but Sheppard and Ronon put a stop to that. Suddenly, Wraith showed up and Sheppard and Ronon took care of them.
 * I was on a plane with the Atlantis crew in it. I wanted a picture of them. I got a picture of Teyla, no problem. I then went to the row with McKay, Sheppard and Ronon, who laughed and for some reason said "can you prove who you are?" I moved on to Lorne, who said no on the spot. This one was quite an unfair dream.

Crossovers

 * I discovered a flying saucer and named it the Discovery. SG-1 went to Wales to find the ship, but someone, possibly from the Trust stole it and the ship is now a threat to Earth. I found Drs McKay and Zelenka in my house, they were trying to figure out how to stop the ship. They thought of nothing, until I suggested EMP, which later did the trick.
 * I found another ship called similar to the Discovery I call the Horizon, but as I went to space with a friend, we warped to the Pegasus Galaxy. Soon, the Daedalus and Apollo tried to find me and fight the Wraith. We eventually got back to Earth, after a rough landing (similar to how Atlantis tried to land on M35-117).
 * A crossover with Stargate, Battlestar Galactica, and Star Trek: Voyager. Carter is on the BSG Vipers and comes to the Daedalus, that is actually the Battlestar Galactica but with its systems are dead. When she gets there, she tries to jump away, but it jumped to 7 miles below a planet’s surface. The USS Voyager found them and beamed the ship to space again.
