    Can somebody organise a whip-around for a trophy cabinet? We're going to need one if this keeps up.

    Well done to all concerned.

    That's exactly what it reminds me of! War of the Worlds - I think you should shake it a bit and make sure the tiny alien inhabitants inside are really dead.





    Well Done Guys!

    The "Queen of the Spider People" thing was on the end of us jokingly coming up with "alternate uses" for it, or things it looks like. War of the worlds, face huggers from aliens (for the previous ones), monster-brass knuckles or Blakes 7 laser gun amongst others... We had been drinking a lot :)

    Apparently someone from the GS said to Gerry/Ross (cant recall which) that we had garnered a huge number of votes.

    Des Bishop was cracking wise that we didnt need 5 of us to run it as it was all built on open source software (not sure why that would mean less people but the guy is paid to be funny not to be a techie, and to be fair he was pretty funny live). I got the feeling he was quite familiar with Boards!

    Congrats Best Site anywhere. Well deserved. Could'nt survive without it.

    Fair play. Did you win on merit or because you bought a table at the awards ceremony?

    Nice one guys.

    What happens when the posters ask for a cut of the income? They are the heart and soul of the site, as you have stated. Community. The site is the users, not the Admins or software? Even Des Bishop could see that?!?

    You could be lying on a beach somewhere relaxing on the income, or better still we all could :)

    How can we all share the wealth of our site? We would love to know?
