This is supposed to launch with the new site, but i figured you may want a crack at it first.

Plus, if there is an overwhelming "other" suggestion I'll throw it into the main pool.

    The pizza was the biggest pizza I've ever seen.

    But not the biggest The Geek had ever seen.

    And, yes, it was good.

    The pizza itself was subpar but made up for it in sheer size (and it being free!).

    I heard the Geek once saw a pizza that was 8 feet across.

    i'm well aware of the auction. i got overwhelmed somewhere around $250 on it. really wanted it. however, if you'll remember, there were several balls thrown out by the ugly daughters in the keynote speech. i call them ugly just because they didn't seem like gamers, and lets face it, its pretty tough for ugly nongamer chicks to find lovin!

    Those were just small ping pong type balls. They could never be mistaken for The Ball. I'm sure that something similar to the ball incident will happen this year, and hopefully it will also result in something that can be sold for Childs Play.

    Ok, I don't recall that closely. But, they were no where near the size of The Ball. That keynote speech was interesting, and it would be great if there were one this year of that caliber.

    It'd be kinda interesting to see the ball turned into a sport of some kind with a tourney at PAX, but I could also see lotsa people bitching about that, even in concept.

    I think the character modelling demo, storytelling in games, and game music panels are awesome ideas. Those could go over really well.

    I did tick the box for Pitch Your Game, but it better not be shit like last year. The moderators were douchebags, especially that fucking guy from DigiPen who kept rewarding his own students.
