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

I'm 90% sure it's "Abandon All Hope, Ye Who Enter Here" rather than "Abandon Hope, All Ye Who Enter Here". But I could be wrong

~Irving

Ah, thanks for the correction. I didn't bother to look it up when I wrote it, so I have no trouble believing its wrong.

Well, I've never actually read the book, but I think it's the way I had it above... now that I've got your attention, do you suppose you could do a float (if you aren't too busy with Alien's float) for the H2G2 ACEs (Assistant Community Editors)? You can find their homepage at http://www.h2g2.com/A214796

~Irving

Would be willing to, but I'd have to have some help with the conceptual work, I don't really have any ideas for the Ace float. If I could get some ideas, I'd do the artwork as best I could.

I'll see if the ACEs have any ideas

~Irving

Perhaps you could show some people marked 'New Researcher' on the float, and have people with ACE badges greeting them!

The ACEs badge should definately be incorporated.

~Irving

Yes, without the badge, it would not be a float for the ACEs. And that would hence make it utterly and completely pointless.

Vegiman had this suggestion: "How about a "tower" of playing cards with an h2g2 Ace of clubs on the top
"

~Irving

That sounds much, much better than my stupid idea . Don't listen to me .

both good ideas, maybe I can incorporate them both.

Yeah. Everyone on the ACEs mail seems to be into the tower of cards idea. So maybe that with the ACEs badge on the float somewhere?

~Irving

Just to clear up, it'd be best if all floats could be done by the 26th of April. I'm posting this here because I realize that you're involved with two, ddombrow.

~Irving

I was aware, but thanks for the reminder. Will do my best to keep the deadline.

Thanks so much!

I've seen the space center float and it looks wonderful! Any news on the ACEs float?

~Irving

Sadly, I've had some technical difficulties on that one. I hope it will still be possible for me to finish it. Definitely it will be in no earlier than wednesday night. I'll do my best, but I can't promise anything.

Is that wednesday night in the UK or the US?

Oops, that's US eastern time. If you're in the UK I guess I'll have to get it in by early evening here.

I'm in the US. Western Us. I was just trying to pinpoint you.
