Someone Get Than A New Gf ASAP 
as his delicate wrist must be preserved for mapping only... 
Still Hope 
We might be a day or two off schedule, but I just got the php and mysql backend uploaded for the site. Just need to configure it all now. 
:O 
postHASTE!! 
 
so? will we have a speedmap event or what?

:\ is the only thing i will have in time to contribute... 2 days turtle or something... :! 
Before Asking For Events... 
... will QEXpo happen... actually ?? 
 
good point JPL... :| 
From What I Understand 
some problems with mysql caused a hiccup in the calendar for them, but the relevant data from quakedev should be getting passed along to tastyspleen (they've already got the 06 php). i dont know where things stand at the immediate moment, as im only mildly in contact with the planners about it.

real life definitely interfered with my participation for anything Quake this year, as i surmised it might have. 
Updates 
The site is up, the css is in, and all we need to do now is fix the accounts system. After that, we'll announce that booths are open for registration, which will run for a little less than a week. Then we're on! 
OFFICIAL PROGRESS UPDATE 
The site is live and running at qexpo.tastyspleen.net - news posts and old booths have been cleared, logins work, making new booths work, etc. There are still a lot of tiny niggles to sort out, but I'd say that the site is at 95% operation. Regarding Echon - even if he is now available and willing to help, I think it'd be best for everyone and a whole lot less stressful if we kept the hosting that tastyspleen (railwolf and quadz) have so graciously provided. They have truely saved our asses this year, and it'd be good if everyone recognizes that. Many people have jumped in during the final hours and have pulled off their own heroics, and the site is now working in the state it is because of these people. I'll provide more detail on these individuals when I can pay more attention to it and not accidentally skip anybody. So, on with the Plans:
August 8th - BOOTH REGISTRATION STARTS!
You're still allowed to futz around and put your booth in now, but be willing to encounter the odd bug every once in a while.
August 15th - QUAKE EXPO BEGINS!!
This will be the OFFICIAL opening date of all the booths - keep them private until then. For the intervening week, we want to see lots of people talking about quake expo, getting people on with their booths, and spreading the word as much as possible.

This year has been one of unfortunate absences, miscommunications, and some genuinely bad luck. But we're here. Hopefully you are too. 
Not With Me This Year 
I'm on holidays at the end of the week... and till September, with a limited access to the internet... :( 
Www.quakeexpo.com 
If it's possible, it would be really nice to see it at www.quakeexpo.com
If Echon is back it should be no problem to setup and the long delay would mean that when it starts the DNS has surely propagated. 
Yeah... But... 
With all of the work that tastyspleen has put forward so far, I think it'd be best to keep this host. I can't stress enough how much they've helped us this time around. It'd be good to show our appreciation.

Please update the link in the thread title ;) 
Huh... 
i tried to register but my username is already taken. Is there another metlslime out there somewhere? 
 
For some reason they did not remove the accounts from last time. You can request your old account to be deleted in the IRC channel.
Can't wait to see the new Rubicon 2 screenshot. 
Sprit: 
thanks for the info. can't wait to post it. 
Ah.... 
no need to request deletion, i guess i can just log in using the old account. 
And Post The Same Screenshot 
 
Yeah... 
too bad they deleted my old booth, it was perfect!!! 
Which Year? 
There are at least two to pick from.

I would suggest adding czg like happy faces and colors and keep the info the same. Maybe add a really dark picture of Chthon from the back torso with the caption, 'Rubicon2?' to keep the Metlologist guessing. 
ZOMG 
its today :D 
Goddamit 
What? 
 
Four Hours And Ten Minutes Late Now. 
The tension is killing me.
