Old Mother Hubbard sat in her cupboard,

Drowning her sorrows in hay.

Along came a spider who sat down to chide her,

But he could think of nothing to say.

"So I found some cheese from June '09...wanna guess what color it was?"

Guessing

Is it bigger than a bread box?

gnnb94's picture

oooh I got one!

What color is it?

Is it a new forum?

Is it better than the chat boat?

Is it a better way to post? (How do you get any better..? :) )

Is it neon green? I like neon green...and neon orange too....and neon pink....and neon blue....and neon black....and neon white....alright I'll stop.

Is it a bird? a plane? Superman?

Does it have any drawings or anything in it from Quartz?

Am I asking too many questions? XD

-_- Believe me, it's been better.

Foppy used to have a game we were playing on here but then on the new site the posts were arranged differently and effectively killed the game.

Yeah

It was Dungeon, but Fopsworth really didn’t have time to keep up with it anyway… :-\ It wasn’t just the comment ordering.

There will be no chat. :(( No chat at all. :(( So we'll all have to migrate over to the carousel I guess.

:(

Carousel

Mad Hatter worked hard on the carousel, I’m not sure what’s so bad about this… :-J

*sniff*

You had to go and remind us. :'(

But I'm sure the surprise is going to be infinitely better than the chatboat. And it's not going anywhere like the chat boat is so it'll be all the BETTER!!! Not that I have anything against the chat boat, of course. Or the carousel for that matter.... :D Thanks for offering it, Mad Hatter!

I'll be on at exactly 12:01 tomorrow morning:-)

Will it be immediately noticeable, or will I need to search for it?

DragonManJ13's picture

regarding the surprise

I take this stand on most things that people promise, so please don't be offended. when something is promised to be great, i assume it will not be very exciting, so i won't disappoint myself if it is below my expectations. That's just how i work, so don't get offended Malex and co. =D

A lie would have no sense unless the truth were felt as dangerous.

Aisling's picture

I concur.

(I think I just used that title somewhere else too. >.> ... <.< Oh well.)

However, there are a few certain people who have delivered wonderful surprises before, thus making it easier for me to trust that they will again.

What To Expect

It might show up as much as half an hour after midnight, depending. I think it would be closer to 10 or 15 minutes after midnight.

Yes, I believe it will be immediately noticeable! :-J

That's such a funny sig. I saw a t-shirt that made me think of you. It was green for St. Patrick's Day and said, "I'm not short, I'm leprechaun sized." but I like your sig better.

Journal entry, 11:42 PM

I've depleted my supply of ice water (including the ice) slightly sooner than anticipated. I'm going to have to find fresh nourishment if I'm to survive the wait. The terrain of remaining Malex Minutes is rapidly getting increasingly rocky, especially if I hope to have some strength remaining for the surprise ahead.

As I scan the territory ahead of me, I note what appears to be an oasis in the distance. And... are those Splickies, or their dangerous predator cousins, the wild Slinkies, surrounding it? I think I'll have to take my chances.

P.S. If you've ever seen Man vs. Wild, imagine I'm speaking in Bear's voice. If not, don't even try. You have to hear it to understand:-)

Addition to prev. post:

gnnb94 goes completely wild, tearing around the room in circles...

I shall check back as soon as I possibly can in the morning.

Right now, I am happy and satisfied because I got to talk to my brother and his gf who is now a really good friend of mine. (heart) They are all of 4 hours away at Grace College in Indiana. :-((

'Tis with much regret and remorse that I exit the MMN website and retire for the night.

I shall miss the surprise and shock of seeing it.

I feel slightly envious for those of you who will see it before I do, but I will not let that take ANY of the fun out of it for me.

This wouldn't happen to have anything to do with the chat disappearing, would it?

I hold you in the highest regard, my friends.

Yes

Contradictionary was started partly to replace the Chat Room. See here.

Quartz said:

This is, in fact, not correct. Contradictionary and the Chat Room have nothing in common. The only connection, really, is that I chose to coordinate turning off the chat room with the same day I was already planning on launching Contradictionary.
