Topic: Paranoia Subject: I like this place!
Simon was careful to avoid looking at the Blue while he spoke. Not like it was much of an effort, his drab colourless outfit wasn't exactly fetching, his own toes were more exciting. He dared not voice his opinon however, he was lucky to still be alive, he had seen a former fellow kitchen worker replaced by successive clones enough to know he wanted to avoid that.
He waited for the Blue to finish before giving his thanks. "I'm most happy to be helping you lot," he said cheerily (making a concerted effort to move his lips as he spoke, sometimes it took actual effort to remember),"I'm going to like this group...it's exciting!"
He turned to face the group, immediately catching sight of one of the other's "spare" eye. A pity to have such an obvious mutation, one which hardly benefits in this drab colourless place. He could see far more orange with it though, which might almost be worth it, but that wasn't the point.
He waited for the others to finish before he entered the conversation.
"I'd be very much interested in coming along, after all, the elimination of the communists would help us all wouldn't it now?"

Topic: The Christmas Game! Subject: Grugg grugg
EDIT: Apparently Olan beat me to just singing Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Damnit.
1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping Paper. It's not even close.
2. Real tree or Artificial? Real. Seriously, why is that even a question?
3. When do you put up the tree? Usually my birthday, which is two weeks before Christmas, and gives me something to do before I go partying and wake up on Christmas eve not knowing where the days went.
4. When do you take the tree down? Um...First week of January?
5. Do you like eggnog? Sure.
6. Favorite gift received as a child? I once got a little box, a toolbox really, filled with action figures from a dozen different movies I liked. Spiderman and Batman teamed up to fight the aliens for Space Jam, if I recall correctly.
7. Hardest person(s) to buy for? I'd say my gf, but she's now my ex, so she's getting some rotten fruit or something.
8. Easiest person to buy for? My brother. Here, have...that thing you don't shut up about for 3 weeks before Christmas .
9. Do you have a nativity scene? Nope, I can remember my neighbour's when I lived at home catching on fire though. That was funny to hear the fireman inform us that they found the remains of Baby Jesus.
10. Mail or email Christmas cards? Mail. Even when it takes two and a half bloody months. Am I write people?
11.Worst Christmas gift you ever received? Someone gave me a telescope. I suppose it's expensive...but what the heck am I going to do with a telescope?
12. Favorite Christmas Movie? Does The Nightmare Before Christmas count? That was always one of my favorite movies. P.S. I liked it before it became cool, damn all these copycats.
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? Depends where I am. I think I can usually get it all done in the week before.
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Big Al took my answer for this!
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? I am a fan of cranberry pie.
16. Lights on the tree? I know of no alternative.
17. Favorite Christmas song? Wait 'til I get drunk and sing "GOOD BLESS YE DECK THE JINGLE FROSTY OF KING WENCESLAS." Sometimes the Reading Rainbow sneaks in there too.
18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Uh, I got to me Gran's, that count?
19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer? You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen. BUT DO YOU RECAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLL THE MOST FAMOUS REINDEER OF AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL! Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer (REINDEER!) had a very shiny nose! And if you ever saw it (SAW IT!) you would even -- Alright I'm done.
20. Angel on the tree top or a star? Angel. Mine's holding two little candles that look like dynamite. We refer to it as the terrorist.
21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? Morning. I'm usually home for Christmas so I get woken up when my brother does (read: 4 AM). Usually we make him wait until 6 AM. One time he was sick and I slept until 4pm, so really...Christmas Afternoon.
22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? People who say it's commercial and fake. Of course it is. Just enjoy it.
23. Favorite ornament theme or color? I always liked the little round coloured ones.
24. Favorite for Christmas dinner? A turkey and all that good stuff. Traditional.
25.What do you want for Christmas this year? I could really use some money, the life I lead doesn't really need a lot of material possessions, but I do need food, and money does that. But money is a lousy gift, so uh, I could use a new jacket? Maybe?

I probably wouldn't mind it as much if we had a lot more buttons, as it's just the 4 now it seems a little over the top for so few things.

Topic: Affiliates? Input, please! Subject: Well
If two of them are already breaking it, and its a 5 member group...why not team up with them and get the rules changed through a majority vote to compensate.
Otherwise I favor the add bar on the left.

I realise I jump on every idea but right about the TOS would be perfect.

Topic: Affiliates? Input, please! Subject: Wow
I agree with Bob, plus it seems odd we really give them top billing when the majority of them have them down on the side.
Its now the first thing I see when I boot up the Inn...and it's a little meh.
