Was there any doubt?

[OzBat!]

Your panel sucks!

GailTHIS is what we need! Inter-panel rivalry, followed by bitter rivalry, raiding parties from insurgents, escalating into all out war! I want to see desks upturned and coffee thrown and plot secrets exposed!

[Cam63]

I'll be the Aussie drinkin' beer in Beer-stralia.

[Weetomuncher]

I wish I could do that trick that the kid in Hard Time does - leaving my body as a weird spirity thing and go to the convention by flying and stuff.

Hmm. Maybe I will. :cool:
