I'm really looking forward to chat. Since I won't be at SDCC, it'll be the next best thing. I hope a lot of people who don't normally join Freaks chat on Thursday nights will be there.

Never too early!!! Good luck to all you guys stuck at home! I almost wish I was going to be in chat with you! I might sneak in for a few minutes in the evenings... if I can still move a mouse at that point! :rotfl

No worries there! A lot of us do the official chats, but aren't really into weekly chats. On average, you will have 50 to 100 people during peak times or events! Maybe more if Chicky and Dusty are feeling generous during the Con and do lots of Chat contests! :lol

That's the one part I won't miss... having to hide the browser and chat windows every time someone walks by! :rotfl

Just remember, it's Brant, not Brent, and Dusty's not a guy.

That may help you all in your brown-nosing.

I've heard that Dusty drinks and fights like a guy. Is this true?

She's from Texas, I believe. That should tell you all you need to know.

Yes, every other letter of the names of the items on podium three are actually a jumble for you to unscramble.

Go!!!

I highly recommended getting an IRC chat program like mIRC or others! Many people have problems with the JAVA chat client, especially when the servers are busy! I've never had a problem or been kicked (except by Mark :rotfl ) since I switched to mIRC. It is a free download to try for 30 days... or used to be.

Thank you VERY much for pointing that out, Tom. I got called 'he' a few times by newbies this evening. I always crack up when that happens :p

First night of chat was great, Dusty. There were a lot of people on there. And I hope we get to see more of the Dusty Cam!

Thanks Battster. I always love the chats. We feel a little bad during Con though, as we really can't spend as much time in chat as I'd like, due to all the other demands on our time (all those darn Con attendees really get in the way of our chatting! ;)) This year we have a ton of action going on in the booth, so trying to divide our attentions between what's going on around us and what's going on in the chat (and what's getting posted on the web site!) is sometimes hard to juggle. But we're going to do the best we can, darn it! Plus, it gives you guys a chance to bond with each other :) And there's still chat-heavy 'taculars coming up again this year ;)

Oh, and roving Dusty Cam will be back for sure throughout the Con, live from the floor - taking requests from the audience :duff

As someone who's watching all the action from home, I really love the web cams and chat. And for you and the other members of the Sideshow crew to spend any time out of your schedule to talk to us bunch of nuts is greatly appreciated. :duff


Dusty, has there been any non-Sideshow items that have really "wowed" you yet?

[internal discussion]

Should I?

Nah, the Joke's too obvious...

Yeah but it's Dusty man she'll find it funny.

No, I'd better not...

[/internal discussion]


Ahem!


Hey Dusty, I've got a request...are you ready for this?, please don't think me too forward but...


[internal discussion]

DO IT!!!! DO IT!!!!

[/internal discussion]


Can you, erm, I mean, would you...


[internal discussion]

Go on man! Spit it out! What every red-blooded male Geek wants to ask Dusty...

[/internal discussion]


Yeah, erm, is there any chance that you can...

Look I'm just going to go ahead and say it. We're all thinking it...


Can you let us see your...









SHOES!!!!!!! The one's that light up all funky when light is shone on them.


Ta!

I'd like to nominate SideshowAmy as the bestest...

She kept us all entertained and updated before the previews went up last night - the tension was UNBEARABLE!!!!!!!


BTW - did we ever work out who had the Green Hair?

I've GOT to make SDCC next year. It looks to be an amazing convention. But the Chats and Webcams are a great alternative to those of us unable to attend.

Thanks again for the T-Shirt, Dusty!! :chew

Yeah, what was up with that?? Was it the same person everytime? Did he ever say anything constructive?

Well, anyway, thanks to everyone else for your patience during the crazy days at Con. Especially to the chat 'old-timers' who have been so welcoming and helpful to the newbies!! :duff
