Thanks to everyone who played in the beta.

Is this for real?
It is a weekend...
Is this the best time to launch, as some of the beta guys are saying it needs another week in beta?


What is the consensus in the current beta?

So up and running by 9:30pm tonight? A bit of late evening PP for me then!

I think a little bit of wee just came out!

[Rubbernuke]

I almost lost bladder control watching that video.

Either I'm very excited, or I'm getting too old. Or both!

Either way, nice one FD!
