My Birthday + Site News + New Poll - Redone Manga Series
Birthday!
Yup, it's my birthday today~ So happy birthday to me! Adding this kind of news about myself is just one of the perks of being an admin, haha. And yes, I turned 18, so I'm finally legal...
Site News
For site news, I have a further update on the next version of our site. Originally, we were hoping it'd be ready by BU/MU's birthday, which is July 22, but it appears we won't meet that deadline. Our future projection date as of now is around the Christmas season. It sounds pretty late, I know...
However! I just started testing (spent 2 hrs yesterday) our beta (alpha?) forum for v2 of the site! Most likely in the future we'll begin recruiting people to help with all the testing. I'll keep you guys posted.
Last of all, the t-shirts. I'm *hoping* we'll be able to push out the t-shirts before the opening of v2 of the site (which as stated before will probably be around Christmas time), but no promises. I'll have to discuss more about this with Manick
Weekly Poll
This week's poll was brought to you by l3ongl3oi. Basically, choose the type of manga that you hate the most. Lovely poll, eh? (The option of "Other" was purposely left out since too many people would probably choose it...and that wouldn't be helpful now, would it?)
Come and discuss your love/hate for this poll: http://www.mangaupdates.com/showtopic.php?tid=6574
PS: We're running out of poll ideas, so if you got any suggestions, come here: http://www.mangaupdates.com/showtopic.php?tid=3903
Previous Poll Results:
Question: Do you attend anime/manga conventions? (Like AnimeExpo, Otakon, San Diego Comic-Con, etc)
Choices:
Sure! What better way to meet fans? - votes: 1419 (18.6%)
Nah, that's lame - votes: 1759 (23.1%)
I would if there was one close to me (but there isn't) - votes: 4434 (58.3%)
There were 7612 total votes.
The poll ended: July 12th 2008
I wish more people went to conventions, but it appears most people don't really have access to one. Get some travel plans, people! Get off the computer and go outside!

First, Happy Birthday.
As for travel plans, I hate travelling just down the street to the grocery store. Much further then that and I can't work up the motivation. Just HATE travel.

I...I'm older than an admin? I feel so...unaccomplished. ;_;

Lamb just got picked by Manick for...some reason.
There are people that are able to swallow a sword at 16 years old with training but we all have our own accomplishments and personal successes. (I end up saying this because there was recently a Street Performers Festival and one of the performers was a sword swallower and less than 50 people in the world have been able to train themselves to do this.)
And oriana3k, you're only a year older. So competitive!
And Lamb, maybe some people do travel but they don't travel out of their way for a convention. Especially with the cost of a plane trip or even just gas! I don't drive (but you may, but I doubt that due to your comments), but watch the news enough and the cost to drive a car is burning a hole in their pockets, if they still exist after all this time.
So, travel is overrated now with all the extra grief (stuck at the airport between flights, security, fees on top of the plane ticket). I also hear about people mentioning "costs" when they say they don't go concerning conventions, and I've mentioned the more specific costs but it's not covered in the 3 options. And if we got off our computers Lamb, maybe we'll almost never come back like Stealth. ;)
And why is it being pushed all the way to Christmas when the aim was July 22nd? Why not September or another date in between? Was that to allow for it to be a present for Christmas (but the surprise is now gone...)? I suppose this also allows for a more relaxed schedule unless there is a surprise launch earlier. ;)
Anyhow, hope you're birthday was good and if you went drinking, that the hangover wasn't too bad. Happy 18th

Happy 18th!
I've got exactly one month until mine and then I'll 'finally' be legal too! (I hate being the last to turn 18....)
As for conventions, I swear there's only two a year in London (London Expo) and I've always already got plans when they roll around. I'll have to make a definite effort this year, it seems.

Another pass at Lamb? O_o Was there a picture of him that had the female users of the site drooling of him that I missed? (I'm just wondering, but necessarily need to see it since I have my eyes on someone else.)
