If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Life update:

Just moved into my law school apartment today after a nice long vacation in Florida. Since law school will demand far more study time it means, conversely, more time not playing WoW and more time spent staring at the Transfans.net screen, along with Trillian.

So I'm back.

I'm sure you're all thrilled.

Um, let's see.

I like long walks on the beach at night.

Good luck.

Go away, we don't want you here anymore.

Or, alternatively, hi. :)

The sticky at the top of GD.

It's not available online yet, seeing as that's not really fair to the people who have actually paid money to own it.
Grrr. Argh.

So... he's back. Well, as long as he doesn't moderate he's a loveable fellow... when he's drunk. :lurk:

I sorta thought the main-men behind the comic would do like the fellas at Botcon did, and release last years comic online just prior to the start of the next years 'convention'.

It'd work wouldn't it? Naturally I want to read it prior to one year after publication, ;) but I'm also one of the many cheap basts who aren't going to buy it. So I think a bit of waiting is indeed fair.

Yeah, but that wasn't the finalised one.

And I only skimmed trough some of the letters-pages, and the over-all design, so as not to spoil it until I got my hands on the finished goodies. :)

Muchas gracias to Mob for the Sig, proving why he's called 'King'.

The "i" in "Señior" from "Señior's Covenant" is intentional and part of a stupid & cheesy inside joke from '02. Thank you for your concern.
