Time Period Question I

First, let's vote up the general era, and then we can do another vote for a specific starting year (if #2 doesn't win) once the era is chosen.

1. The Future (2030s or later, Please specify when.)

2. 2027 (Same as Homeline and Centrum, especially fitting if we're doing interdimensional more than or instead of interstellar - this will trigger a vote on whether or how much this setting interacts with Infinite Worlds.)

3. Recent (2000s-2020s)

4. Modernish (1980s-1990s - consistent with the film from 1994, the show, which started in 1997, and some of the uniforms, which IIRC were more consistent with the 1980s.)

5. Atomic Age (1945-1970s - earliest era in which the canon Stargate movie makes about the same amount of sense.)

6. WWII (1939-1945)

7. Interwar/Late Dieselpunk (1920s-1930s)

8. WWI (1914-1918)

9. Early Dieselpunk (1880s-1910s)

10. Victorian/Late Steampunk (1837-1901 - yes, there's some overlap.)

11. Early Steampunk (1730s-1830s)

12. Clockpunk (pre-1750s, but probably shouldn't be much earlier than the 1550s.)

13. Some other era (please specify).

Please remember to include the number(s) of your preferred option(s) when you vote.

*******

Answer: OK, four votes for 4, which wins, three votes for 3, and one each for 8 and 13.
