Mittens 2012 Anaheim - August 24-31 - Dave G was there!

[Monsieur OUXX]

For some reason you and Monsieur OUXX didn't have a title.  Apparently CJ hates the Irish and French?

It's OK, I added my title myself last year ;-)

<------------

I don't consider myself "initiate" now I'll be when I come to the next Mittens (in Germany *lobbying*) and actually speak to people (that requires not breaking my computer the very first day).
Oh, and you're right. CJ *is* a hater He almost started a pub fight.

As is so often the case with programming, it took only one line of code to fix the custom titles overlap problem thing.  They should all work now!

[Snarky]

Hmmm... the moment AGA become Mittens Monarch, he changes all the titles to a feudal system. 

[AGA]

It's either this, or I be a Mittens deity under the old system, and I thought that was slightly presumptuous.  Although supposedly Catholic kings were God's representatives, so there may be no difference...  Either way, you try coming up with 11 increasing ranks, it's quite hard!  It's either this, or we be military, or police, or something equally martial.

Ehm, the "old" system, if I recall correctly, had titles like "junkie", "addict" and "mittoholic", suggesting that attending mittens meetings were comparable to abusing a substance. God only knows what you'd be in that system. "Sid Mitticious", maybe?

Having said that, I really dig these titles

Apparently CJ hates the Irish and French?

Yes! It all makes sense!

Also, thank you for the title.

It was a weird mix of addiction and faintly religious stuff, with some other random stuff thrown in to fill gaps.  Anyway, we now have order!

Isn't that a trait of all English people?

Anyways, looks like you had a great time, will definitely consider Germany for next year.
Those few leaked photos look sweet, and thank you Fransisco for educating me about Disneyland, finally!
MOARRR photos!!

[Miez]

Right, I'm back from my extended Mittens-n-more vacation and I've uploaded some pictures:

I also made a couple of short video clips, I'll upload those later...

Either way, you try coming up with 11 increasing ranks, it's quite hard!  It's either this, or we be military, or police, or something equally martial.

Or just let us write our own with a handy title plugin open to people of the 'mittens' category.

Also, those are some cool photos, Miez.  You have a very fancy camera!

[Andail]

you and your individualism, Shane, don't you like being part of something bigger?

[Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens]

NEVER!

Plus, I want to have a game-themed mittens title ;(.  MITTENVANIA!  MITTY ISLAND.  MITROID! 

Or you could just arrange them based on attendence frequency rather than on rank or position, something like

1.  Mittens Inductee
2.  Mittens Hopeful
3.  Mittens ...

It might be fun to have a competition to come up with the best set to use in the comp thread?

[Miez]

But I thought they were attendance frequency based?

[AGA]

They are.

[Snarky]

Does anyone have the group photo ( - abstauber and Christina) from Disneyland?

[AGA]

Did we actually get a 'straight' version of a group photo in the end?

[Andail]

Is this the total amount of photos we're ever gonna see? What mysterious events took place at Mittens 2012 anyways? Did it happen at all?

[Grundislav]

I think Esseb took the majority of the photos, as well as Dirk, but he and Christina were taking an extra week of vacation after Mittens so they probably aren't back yet. As for Esseb, he is the one hiding all the juicy Mittens secrets!

[AGA]

Here are Jen's.  She has insisted I point out that these are all the photos taken, with no kind of quality control.

Oh, and subtract eight hours from the times if you want to know when they were really taken.

[Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens]

There are things you just don't need to see.
