Q&A with Josh Lanyon discussion

Congratulations!!! I have to admit, I had to split my votes (good thing we were inventive with getting quite a lot of those ;D), because I just like all of you authors so very much. I'm incredibly impressed with how many votes both books managed to assemble!!

I'm always happy to share votes in such good company!

LMAO at that exchange. :)

That puppy is safe... for now.

Don't know about the ponies. I wasn't in charge of the ponies.

We shall have to make sure the puppy/doggie stays safe. When do they announce who's against who for the next round?

Looks like either March 28th noon to midnight central time
OR
March29th midnight to noon central time. (basically as soon as the previous block closes)
And I think we're up against Stars and Stripes...

Hang on ponies, it's gonna be a bumpy ride!

Hm... that will for sure be a bumpy ride... but yesterday was bumpy too. We can do it! :-)

Was that crazy or what? I firmly believe victory came down to a handful of wonderful, beautiful maniacs driving up and down streets looking for wifi hotspots! :-D

Thank you to each and every one of you.

I'm going to say YES!
but I'm really nervous.

Josh wrote: "Oh God. I'm making my will now...."

Don't give up, we will battle on! Though our keyboards may be melting and our puppies are whimpering, we will fight on to our very last magic eel and imaginary pony!!!

OMG, are those flying magical uni-eels? And a uni-pony, and a saved doggy. This is... I'm speechless, that's how awsome this is. :D

Nothing can go wrong with a mascot team like that! ;)

yes but we are ready because we now know where the hot spots all are

Nicole wrote: "Behold! The Irregulars DABWAHA mascot team!"

Loving it!! Especially the uni-eels. Seriously, how brilliant is this! LOL

I had to change my sons parental controls so I could use his iPad to vote :)
Rest assured he is restricted once again!

A think Aleks's time zone worked against him last night. Ya'll were in party mode when he was fast asleep.

You're damn right. And it doesn't make the battle any less glorious for knowing that it's suicide. In fact, it makes it MORE glorious!!! Bring it on!!!

We can't lose with mascots like these!

True!

Yes. Having half the world in bed was all that saved us last night. I like to think of it as the stars and moon were on our side. :-P

Yeah... or the people who organized this whole thing were American. Whatever explanation seems more reasonable ;D

I like to think that about every night. :)

Even fast asleep, Aleks still made an amazing showing. I guess we were just very lucky in a lot of ways.

Nicole wrote: "Behold! The Irregulars DABWAHA mascot team!"

OMG, Nicole! That's brilliant! Now all we need are pins, banners, armors, tattoos... that all have the mascot picture on them. Easy peasy!

Josh wrote: "And it doesn't make the battle any less glorious for knowing that it's suicide. In fact, it makes it MORE glorious!!! Bring it on!!!"

THAT'S THE SPIRIT!!!!!!!!!!!! ;-) Go Fearless Leader!

I'll paint the ponies on my cheeks right this instant. For exercise. Warpaint of the most terrifying kind!

Just think about the battle at Vercellae where the German Cimbri tribe fought the Roman armies: the Cimbri went in it with all they had and when the battle was still lost, the women are reported to have killed their families, offspring and later themselves to avoid certain slavery. Because no Cimbri shall be a slave. AND WE WON'T BE EITHER!!! Victory or Death, my friends, VICTORY OR DEATH!!

That is so damn funny. I mean, not that they think they can win, coz with Malaysian IP blockers, I think they can too! :-D But that post is crazy-funny.

We'll keep 'em busy and off the streets for a few hours, and that will be our good deed for the month!

Man, I don't know if I can do it, I just got the most awesome black tea. It's so freakin' good. I'm drinking one cup after the other. HYPER HYPER HYPER. Aren't legal drugs the best thing EVER!
... I'll go play tennis now, I'll be probably easier to endure later ;)

Don't go spouting the bad T word around, there are genuine procrastinators here! I didn't read it, there is nothing waiting on my desk, nothing at all. :P

Well, if they don't, this is probably the cue to get them! :-P

But really...what madness lies this way? If we're all using IP blockers then it all comes down to the same vote anyway!

So it's come down to a battle between good and evil and their calling the evil side as theirs?
Have they seen Lord of the Rings--I mean all the way through, cause at the last minute giant eagles swoop down and daring bloggers hurl the Dark Lord's IP maskers into a volcano... and I'm pretty sure Josh is crowned KING!
