The Secret Meeting

Yeah, I'm 27. Don't worry, we aren't old here, it just feels that way sometimes. Vorpal Blade actually is old.

I might be up for a, like, secret meeting (though the thought of still being awake at midnight, not to mention starting festivities, makes my eyes hurt) if you give me enough warning that I can borrow my sister's car to come down.

You'll know it's me when you see someone wearing a red hat a la Carmen Sandiego.

And I have many favorite "little-known" Board questions (if my favorites page is any guide), but I do tend to be fond of this one: Question #2370. Has that one been posted before?

Well, since I currently work for Papa John's, I could provide free pizza for any sort of secret meeting. Just sayin'.

Free pizza and butterfingers? This sounds like a rockin' meeting!

No joke. I want some. Is this thing readers only?

Word on the streets is that there is going to be a Board Booth in the Wilk some day soon. This seems like a wonderful place to bring Butterfingers and pizza.

Writers read the Board too, do they not? So I think you're good.

Are you going to be changing your identities around like the booth you did in 2007? Will we be told the day before or so on the message board so we know when to go?

I assume we'll publicize, yes. I'm not in charge of it, though.

And I think we'll be switching identities, too. But uh...I think I'll be the most identifiable one there. Unless I get someone else to hold my baby.

If I was in Utah, I would totally hold your baby for you. But that's beside the point, seeing as I'm not.

Gladly

Pizza and butterfingers sounds like a party to me. Nice work, Marduk. C is for, I really don't mind starting a little earlier-- I'm just nocturnal personally and I believe that the ambience of night is the closest thing we have to magic in the modern age. I'd imagine everyone would probably find it a little more convenient if we didn't plan it at some absurd time. I'm looking forward to it!

EXTREME!

Even though I don't really know quite what that entails, I'm looking forward to it too!

I (and most other writers I have talked to) actually read the Board much, much less as writers than in former reader times.

You still have to read the questions to answer them, so that still counts.

Unless you are answering every question randomly and sounding like you read the question. Then that's just awesome.

Didn't you know? All the writers are bots that are programmed to look at key words, then pick answers from a predefined bank. Hence all the links to the archives, so it doesn't sound like they aren't real people.

My predefined bank is full of curse words and innuendo.

Dammit, Cogs! You weren't supposed tot tell them that!

Where would we have it?

I can't believe you lot, having parties while I am clear down in Florida. *pouts* There had better be partying when I get back!

There always is.

And did you expect us to not get together while you're in Florida?

Post by **bobtheenchantedone** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 10:57 pm

Considering the fact that I was usually the one to push for the parties, and that no one aside from myself seemed excited the last couple of times, my answer is yes.

Great question. Where do these sorts of shenanigans usually end up?
