    Sweet! The Protector table is slowly expanding

    I'm certain I saw on their site that they have a shuttle to the airport - they're practically in the airport based on the maps I've seen.

    Oh and by the way. . .You will need to set another place setting at the Protector table.

    Ny is going to Hero Con! ! !


    We he is not going yet as I still have to get my tickets from Southwest.
    Then get your tickets! I was saying last night that Protector will need a huge table to fit everyone.

    City of Cute...

    Did the PM's go out for this yet? I haven't seen anything in my inbox to respond to, and would really like to get in on this if I can.
  6. 44 is a fine number. It is 44 forwards and 44 backwards.
  7. ...with today and with not yet winning the lottery.

    It's because of the fees the hotel is charging them to hold the con there. Hotels aren't cheap to negotiate with, and then there's the banquet dinner and cost of making goodies to consider.
  9. Taclobanon has 39 little neon fire imps to his bidding.
  10. Cashoo's such a cute pirate (in pirate terms of course) that she's the equivalent of 33 normal people.

    I don't know Taclobanon very well yet, but I hear that they're known in better parts, up to 15 times better than most people.

    On a more serious note, I noticed that the Posi TF is no longer the drudgery it was before Issue 16.
    Nope, no pants seen on the Purple Pantsless one. The question of underwear did come up during the TF.

    It wasn't the slog that its been. We did take our time, but everyone was having a good time. Valkery and Ish seemed to hit it off rather well. I think we'll need to keep our eyes on those two in the future.

    It was actually Hulkers we ran with. And the 7th person on the team was also me. We really ran Posi with 6 people even though the team showed 7.
  13. Here's what I came up with - I left off the sword as coloring that would require me to "cheat" on my BS scrapper (who didn't have all of the costume pieces I needed for this unlocked yet)




    If you need the larger version of this, let me know - I didn't post that as it's a fairly large image.

    There were between 20 and 25 people participating last year.

    And yes Kid, I was thinking about it and decided to do a preliminary post now as opposed to later. I know of several people last year who wanted to send paper cards but couldn't because of lack of monies for cards and postage, which is why I'm mentioning this now so there's time to save up for postage, look for cards on extreme sales, etc.

    I'll post the "official" post for this in a month or so. If anyone's on the fence about participating, this gives you some time to think about it. It's been a lot of fun since I came up with this idea a couple of years ago. In fact, I remember thinking about not doing it one year, and several people were about to hit me over the head for not continuing to spearhead this.

    I hate how the replys don't say who you are replying to.

    I completely missed that... and yeah - I don't like that either.

    I want another hunky card from you too!

    Vyx has always been to one to collect everyone's info and send out the list to everyone who wishes to participate.
    This is why I'm mentioning it now - there were several people last year who wanted to send cards, but couldn't. This gives a heads up to start saving now for that
  18. Signups are now officially open! The rules are slightly different this year - I've enlisted some help in gathering the information in this handy form here. I'm the only one who can see the list, so don't worry on that front.

    Signups close November 20th to give everyone time to make and send cards out. Go. Hunt. Make. Cards! (I couldn't resist!)


    ***
    This has been popular both times we've done this in the past, I know I've had fun with it. Soooo... I'd like to put out this preliminary announcement that I'm planning on running this again this year, probably not until November.

    But I'm mentioning this now for those who might be interested so that there's time to save up for cards, stamps and whatnot.
  19. How do you feel about power fx colors being changed as well? I know that doesn't turn up well in screenshots, but I'd like to experiment with those as well.

    You obviously have not met Ishmael. I miss the purple pantless poetry nights *wistful sigh*
  21. Dropping an Oro portal while solo will cause the portal to appear, but when you click on it the "you cannot enter" popup window appears. The character in question was not on a team, or task force and was level 48.

    Welcome to the Fun House.
    I don't know if it was Elric. Remember he was passing out giant pink bubbles last night to everyone. Or maybe it was him... we'll never know

    This serves as your official welcome message. I'm afraid I ate all the oreos last night and cannot give you any until we acquire more.
  23. And of course since I was sick last week and we have anti harassment training at work tomorrow, there's no way I can feign illness. Ach well.
