h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Using the latest possible results (probably Thursday), I will write an article for the Post on the competiton. I'll most likely include each entry that got more any votes and the winner, along with the "don't vote for Bluebottle" thing. Does anyone have any other quotes they'd like me to add?

Oops...too late. I quoted from the other forums, and it got put in.

Yes, I read it. Thanks Cheese! I liked what you wrote!

Thanks. I enjoyed writing it.

Well, any time you'd like the favour returned, let me know..
How's your ticket office going?

I've sold none so far , but it hasn't been up a day, so I'm not too worried! (Maybe I should publicize it elsewhere like on Peta's page since the team itself doesn't need tickets. If you have an idea of where I should publicize it, tell me ). I tried putting a form on the page so it could be automatically posted to, but that didn't work .

Okay, well I'll tell a few people about it, but Frinks Drinks itself doesn't seem to be doing that well recently - too much competition. But don't worry too much, it took about a fortnight before the Aroma Cafe was noticed, and a similar time before my beach did anything.

Well, I went ahead and publicized it on Peta's page. I have now sold five: Peta bought them for herself, Mark, Anna, Sam and Jim. As for it getting noticed, I'm not too worried (yet).

~The Cheese, Still undecided about a suffix for his name (To be honest, I'm hoping I can put "(ACE)" after it soon )

Me too - I hope you get that. It would be great to see us all as ACEs. If something happened to your ticket stall, I could write an article for the post about it - that should get some response.

Thanks! I'll let you know if anything happens!

Peta said the new ACEs and Sub-Eds are going to be appointed by the end of the month...

I applied for both ACE and SubEd, but I really want to be an ACE, because greeting new users is so much fun (I've started to greet them as practice)! I hope you become an ACE, too!

~The Cheese, proud reporter for the h2g2 POST

Well, I've said I want to be in practically every forum I could find that mentioned ACEs.

Things on my side:
The Beach
I invented the
I have welcomed lots of people
I've given "good" ideas to Peta

So, you've:
Got a ticket office,
welcomed people,
reported for the post,
so I'd say you've got a good chance too.

So we both have a few good things going for us. I truly hope you get to be an ACE, you'd really make a great one!

~The Cheese, running out of things to put here

Well, why not turn this into a conversation where we can learn more about each other?
Where abouts are you, what do you do, and what do you like, my friend?

<BB<

Whereabouts: In the States

What I do: I surf the Internet (a lot), I procrastinate, and I sleep and eat. I also sit in a classroom all day "learning" things I already know so I can "tested" on it (in other words, I'm a student).

And you?

~The Cheese, who isn't British

I'm in Southampton, UK, and from the Isle of Wight, UK.
I also use H2G2 (surprise) read books, mostly sci-fi, and I'm a Beatles & Wings fan - or whatever you call people who listen to music by them..
I am a Law student, but I don't really want to be a lawyer, and I'm 20, for what that's worth.

Well...I'm one of the younger h2g2 users (I'm still in that "wonderful" stage called teenage years).

As for reading, I'm into sci-fi and mystery.

And I spend way too much time on the computer (at least according to my mother).

~The Cheese, who recently redesigned his homepage

Really? I'll look at it now.

I looked, and liked what I saw... I tried to send you an e-mail, but it's not working, saying you're not properly installed....

Thanks for the link!

Thanks. I'm going to work on more links for the right-hand sidebar, but I wanted to get the design tested and running. It's a LOT easier now (on the eyes and in the code).

~The Cheese, whose desk is cluttered with junk he never uses

What did you think of it? I like it. It's less scrolling work.
