Hello! How are you?
Some of you may remember that a year ago this past weekend/this week, there was a grand gathering which brought many of us together for wild shenanigans and crazy drinks. Good times were had by nobody, except for everybody, and there was much rejoicing. I was even crowned the Scorpion King in honor of my great achievements and general superawesome greatness during this time. The heavy burden of this role has left an irrevocable brand upon me; I was forever changed by the experience.
As the Scorpion King and leader of the Order of the Scorpion, it is my duty, honor, and privilege to recognize things that are inherently Awesome. The official Seal of the Scorpion is reserved only for those things that meet the truly high and time-tested standards of Awesome. Accept no substitutes, for Scorpion-marked Awesome is the real deal.
Last year's Dragon*Con gathering truly meets the Awesome standard the Order strives to maintain. In recognition of this congregation of comrades, this gathering of greatness, I hereby recognize today as SWFans Scorpions' Day. The method of recognition has been communicated through my latest roleplaying post in this thread (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?t=21372).
Putting aside the mantle of my office, I will briefly say I still remember last year with great fondness and I enjoyed meeting all of you for the first time (and one of you for the second!). I hope Burning Nerd and any future SWFans gatherings turn out to be just as successful (and I hope I can go to them), but regardless, we had some Awesome times last year and I thought I'd say thanks to everyone for the memories.
Now go forth! May you walk in the Valley of the Shadow of the Awesome forever! And may you do as other Scorpions have done before you and rock like hurricanes!
