Yeah, we don't run with the FRA pack, we're mostly outsiders and rebels! Haha. But yeah, if you turn up with a rule-abiding ant, you're in. Sometimes even a rule-stretching ant is ok!

Will,

I've mentioned it in the "social stream" part of the chat, but just incase no-one is reading, I'd recommend enabling the proper chat tab, like there was on my stream (http://www.ustream.tv/channel/epicentre), as this is more user-friendly than the social stream, and better suited for actual chat rather than twitter-style messages.

Other than that, the quality looks a bit low, but all I can currently see are two monitors, so I assume everything isn't up and running yet!

Edit: Also, I've signed up now. Sorry for the slowness!

Hi Scott,

The current stream is running off of a laptop webcam so not very good quality. The stream of the day will be using some higher quality conference cameras.

Max has seen the comments and will be enabling the chat tab before the event.

A full briefing will be posted Thursday evening. There will be lots to cover so please check back then.

Suddenly remembered I hadn't actually signed up despite having a hotel booked for the family. Skid Mark and Titanic are now on the list. :lol:

79 ants thus far, only need another 4 to break the record (82 to beat). Shame Simons not coming, but hopefully Jim will :).
