Some people were more upset about this being a joke than others. In fact, it seems I almost made Hitler cry. (Note: I did NOT make this video)

Well gee, that's pretty good that they just about put together a full advertisement for you.
I've been brewing some suggestions: ST Voyager format; each planet a new segment (simplifies total story writing). Archaeology of origin of intelligent species in the galaxy as a glue which holds it together, creates premise and opportunity for complex meta story as incidental opportunity allows. Also came up with one planet motif: 12' tall skinny floating mushrooms. and kangaroo rats which match.

I was planning on generally following the ST Voyager format, but some plot arcs would require visiting multiple worlds. The very first section will involve two planets and a fueling station.
I am also thinking of including many of the things that the crazy UFO-obsessed people obsess over; reptilian conspiracies, crop circles, abduction, accidentally turning cows inside out and such.

Oh, that sounds like great easy writing fun too. Better than my idea, as in having actual content, not just structure. Even C. was a wealth of material to poke fun at.
I seem to be mostly used to Qwerty again. Never had time to need my Dvorak for anything.
Turning cows inside out?

You haven't heard that UFO myth? Aliens apparently like to mutilate cattle.

Easier to prod them that way I guess.
You could have a planet where the cattle mutilate visiting aliens. Worth a line at least.
