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

What's pending anyway?

Well, as I told GB, I reckon I managed to pass the RL 'Peer Review', so I guess I'm owed a bit of editing or something...

Why, whatever did you think it meant?

Were you picked up by a scout then?

Well, I'm not allowed to recommend myself, if that's what you mean...

Ho hum...

Mina, the bullet-proof glass isn't because of you, it's because of the invisible gunman behind you who's out to get me.

I would welcome views on the initial report on the Xmas mingle

I should stress it is not finished and I am about to do a list of attendees.

It's looking good, but the sentances which stop abruptly are a bit off-putting - those are the bits you're going to change, aren't they?

Could we collect together the absolute best photos of the meet and have them in the Entry? (thumbnails, of course, linked to the full-sized versions) That would be good because I think a lot of Researchers' pages get taken down after a while when they run out of webspace and for various other reasons, so having a few on h2g2 itself would be good for new Researchers in the future who want to decide whether or not to risk coming to a meetup.

..The main question is, do we edit out The Corner?
Is that kind of activity likely to put off more shy researchers, or attract them ?

<BB<

Leave it in as an example of how to get slightly carried away at a meetup

Well, if 'slightly carried away' doesn't win 'Diplomatic Understatement of the Year', then I don't know what will!

Hehehehehe

More photos! Thank you Croz!http://www.h2g2.com/A479441

* sighs *

Ah, the memories!

Do I really look like that?

*produces award for understatement of the year and a ceremony hall appears to give it in*

What gunman behind me?
I'm confused...

Abi, I liked the entry, I read it last night and liked it. I'm pleased there aren't too many details...

*sniggers*

Keep quiet in the back there!

*muffled giggles*

All the reports and photos I think can only be good for H2G2!

From someone who didn't go, it makes me wish that I could have. I'm sure it has the same effect on everyone else who didn't make it.

And I'm sure the event was poorer for your absence, Sid.
