As with last year I'll make an award and give it to anyone that completes NANOWRIMO.

42 has the 2007 trophy with the award next to his avatar (I need to re-upload the image which I'll do sometime this week), the 2008 will look the same but with 2008.

Fixed.

The next time you post the numbers should be correct.

I'm glad that we have the titles back, but I miss the thing that showed how many more posts to go you had before you leveled up.

just noticed that's gone, should be an easy fix to get it back.

Here's hoping Dan and I will be back from AnimeBonzie (recording a podcast there) in time, I think we're planning early afternoon so we should be.

Berserk is a great series except for the last episode or two, there's some really messed up stuff there.

Eva is utter crap, it's one of those things that makes absolutely no sense what-so-ever yet everyone thinks that if they don't understand it they're admitting they're dumb so they all talk about how great it is instead, which gets their friends to watch it--and thus start the whole cycle over again.  Even if the plot made any sense all the characters are so fricking annoying and moronic (I know that's supposed to be the point) that it's frustrating to watch.

I'm also wary of any list that has Excel Saga in it....shutter, and didn't have Char's Counter Attack (heck every Gundam series and many war anime series just copy that movie in just about ever regard).

I'd list in this order myself:

1) Robotech (oh ya)
2) Macross Plus
3) FLCL
4) Bebop
5) Any Miyazaki (my favorite is Laputa)
6) Char's Counter Attack

There were quite a lot of people, so many in fact I didn't think brandon had time to sign everything (don't know if the bookstore decided to stay open late since they were supposed to closed just after Nessa got her book signed).

We'll have a Writing Excuses Episode that was recorded at the signing up tomorrow I hope.

that works for me.

I know EUOL won't be in town then though--but he's a looser anyway.

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Question about a Sequel for Elantris

Not really, it could just be a service written in .NET that would/could scan what he's writing in Word via COM and look for certain things.  That would be simple to do, however preventing him from saving or shutting down would be harder.  I could prompt shutdowns but unless I have the username and password I don't beleive you can force one.

Most likely I'd just display popup windows telling him to work on Elantris 2 instead of what he was working on and just try to be annoying.

actually he already told me that if I pay him $1,500 (half the cost of the painting) he'd get around to it--though he didn't really say when that would be.

All your true friends must import the UK version.

Psh, the true friends will import the German version where Fell is worshiped like Hasselhoff.  He was even there when the wall came down--promoting not killing people in a serial manner.

All I know is if EUOL writes the sequal by the end of 2009 I get a $3,000 painting I want.

Because of a bet or what?

Bribe to get me to pressure him to write it.
