[Fool Hi]

we're safe from the glitch... so far

[stampsyne]

April fourth or 4/4 crash? I thought that was for 2004!

[Twisted Sanity]

ALL HAIL -DUCKY-


The end is coming! The end is coming! Everyone! Stock up on water and canned beans, coz we're in for one heck of a ride

So seriously, I don't know what to expect for 5/5/05. Should I expect a hack attack?


FOR HE IS THE KING OF DUCKS!

[Black_Panther]

nothing of value for me on the news sigh oh well

[Runevalkyrie]

Kinda a shame I gave up on my Shoyru as a fighter... now it looks like they finally get a healer (although since they're likely really rare, they wouldn;t be as good as I'd like it to be as well as be expensive.)

[Adam loves Hilary Duff]

Congrats to Armadi and Xerospin from here for making it into the art gallery!

[meowth1982]

What the heck is up with those Shoyrus? Seriously...they're not royal...they're from the planet Mongo *raises an eyebrow*

[Anoohilator]

What the heck is up with those Shoyrus? Seriously...they're not royal...they're from the planet Mongo *raises an eyebrow*

Of course they aren't royal! At most they would be court room jesters!

[AFI_Sorrow]

I like that new book with the wings coming out of it. Quite nice looking. And of course, I'm still in love with the Royal Shoyrus. And that Shoyru staff thinga-ma-bobber is really interesting. I think it looks like a pen.



Still, it's pretty cute. I like the crystal eye.

[Jasujo]

What the heck is up with those Shoyrus? Seriously...they're not royal...they're from the planet Mongo *raises an eyebrow*

Lol. I totally agree. They look like Royal Space Shoyrus. Although, that's cool. too.

I think this is adorable:

[Trick]

I think the royalgirl shoyru does look rather alien like, but to me the royalboy looks like what maraquan royalty could look like =) Either way it's nice to have a bit of variation on the colour. Not really my cup of tea though, heh.

They didn't admit they got the date wrong though, having said before it was the 3rd rather than the 2nd...now it's just "as it fell on a weekend this year...", heehee

[Black_Panther]

makes me wonder what those two have been eating
