...yeah, that was pretty darn full of fail. :wink: For that, your confirmation letter will be delayed! Ha ha! Because I totally have power over the postal service!

"Do not feed the bears" signs are pretty well-known, at least in the States. (I think Yogi Bear had something to do with it.)

As for photos, I look like me. Yes.

Only two people responded. Don't tell me the rest of y'all are too shy? :P It's not compulsory, but I just thought I'd mention it. ^_^
Aren't there photos from last years' Botcon somewhere on the website? If anyone wants to find out what what anybody looks like who went to last years' Botcon, just look there. I mean, honestly, I'm dressed a lot better in most of those photos than I normally am day-to-day.

I'm the goofy dork in the blue shirt with glasses and acne.

I promise to be slightly less goofy this year, but only SLIGHTLY.

Also, "identigy" is my new word of the week.

EDIT: Ah, here they are:

FLYING MONKEY!! *does a flying glomp to catch said flying monkey*

Seeing as I have no recent (or "good") photos of myself, you shall know me the first day by my purple, hand-painted "Know Your Roots" tank top. It's got shiney writing on it. You can't miss it. ;)

Er, I did find some old photos of the first Gathering, though, if that works... Oh yeaaaah, we never did get around to making those "special" photos, did we? ;)

#Silver enters the room as Nurann crashes past chasing an airborne simian# Why do all my ideas get carried away?

"Special" photos? Hmmm.... I'm beginning to like this Botcon concept more and more :wink:

Shiny. Shiny is always good. As is purple. Now with purple and shiny you get... well... Megatron :D
It's ok sir. I'll be fine...

Beastbot, why didn't I think of that? *has a D'oh! moment* Well, all the BWINT Botcon noobs this year can send me photos, and as for the BC veterans, I'll send a link 'round to everyone on the mailing list to the Botcon '06 photos page. It'll save me time and effort. Thanks for reminding me of that, Beastbot. My site's gotten so big I forget what's on there sometimes. O_o

I'm hungry.

Please feed me.

But in all seriousness... xD

I'm still waiting for my confirmation letter. Though being the begining of June, I'm starting to get a wee bit nervous. I'm already starting to guess what I'll have to do if it doesn't come in. O_o I'm a paranoid mofo.

And I'm still hungry.
Is the answer to this question "No"?

#sigh# all right #presents another kitten#

If nothing comes about then we storm the Botcon defences!

#cut to scene of BWint rabble tearing towards the Botcon doors. Door subsequently transforms into giant security droids and stand in our way# Hmmm... this could be tricky. OOP! THE WAFFLES!

Got the confirmation letter. My pickup is at 5:30! :D

Now, to make sure my stomach doesn't eat itself and I have 30 minutes left to live. (Starath will get it xD)

#slaps head as OOP begins eating waffles# :lol:

I thank you for granting me mercy at this point (whilst remaining highly paranoid for an airbourne pelting of pastry :D )

Glad to hear that yours came through Crab. I'll redouble me efforts with the dance of summoning :D

Hey guys, I just thought of something that might turn out to be a problem. Dave & Buster's is an adult bar and arcade, meaning that only people over 21 can get in by themselves, and people under 21 can only get in if they're accompanied by someone who's 25 or older. I know there's some people that are in the group that are under 21, and I'm 23. Is there anyone coming that's 25 or older?

Still waiting on my confirmation letter. I hope it comes in tomorrow .... that'd be wonderful. I'm so looking forward to tomorrow . . . for ageing reasons. XD

Anywhos!

The only difference between how I looked last year and this year is that my hair is shorter, and it's getting curly again. That's it. And my style of dressing is a bit more . . . hm. Well, defined. Crab will tell you! Right, bro? You'll let 'em know about my punkish style. Ish? That's not defined . . .

Rambling, sorry. Been a long week with new kittens and .... *giggles, goes to post*
Uncle Iroh: I know you're not supposed to cry over spilled tea, but *cries* it's just so sad!
