Until then the solution lies here (for when we try again) - How to Play Streaming Video with Windows Vista .

A couple more folks have been spotted. Sir Tim Drake came by the table a little while ago, as did Dinner Damsel, a registered lurker.
Cali has arrived in town, but has not made it to the Convention Center.

Well, it only took me 4 and half hours to drive here from L.A. due to some awful crash on the 5. Thanks for remembering me Kid Cobalt, and hellooooo Lash. I'm looking foward to meeting some of you guys tomorrow, and I will be sure to introduce myself as rokk steady.
Why are you laughing at me? It's unkind, as well as puzzling!

I made it to the booth too, I met Quislet and Sudro in the afternoon. They're next to the 501st Legion and the Rebel Legion; no sign of the Alien Legion, the Foreign Legion, or the American Legion.

I just looked at the pics posted so far! Stupid work blocks photohosting sites or I would have seen them earlier!
What fun! I recognize Caroline from previous pictures, hi baby! Hi, hi! And I know that's MEL from previous pictures! Monkeys beware! Hey, MEL! And I could swear there's a couple of rear view shots of Kent! Hi, Kent's rear! Heh! And OMG-- isn't that Quislet, Esq behind Lydda? I'm sure it is, if the goatee isn't throwing me off... Hey Quissy! Kisses, hugs!!!
But who is that flock of hotties around the table? There's those 3 dudes on Caroline's side, and MEL is between 2 other dudes, and there's a chick in pink. Apologies for not recognizing you, please identify!
Heh heh... LMB SDCC Roll Call, please!
This is so freakin' awesome!

I read here regularly, but I rarely post. I've been looking for you here at the Convention Center. Where are you set up?
My oldest daughter is appearing tomorrow as the animated Night Girl(she's done the silver age and the Grell costume in the past,) so I am sure someone will run into her. I also have the LW member known as Kinetix with me and we'd love to come put faces with names.

Hi all, just popping in to say hi. I'm usually posting over at the DCMB Legion Board, but have been registered here a while, as well, without posting.
I stopped by your booth (I was that short fellow who was showing off my Adventure 247) and just wanted to say I think your presence at the con is a great testament to the strength of Legion fandom. Keep on keepin' on, Legion-Worlders.

Monkey reporting on the first meeting of the Legionworld double-fisted drinkers' club: 3 rounds in 45 minutes. Attendees included Cobie, Cali, CJ, Actor, and yours' truly. No alt IDs or sheep present. Photos to follow once they've been uploaded/ photoshopped to increase/ decrease level of scandal

Double-fisted drinking . . . watch out for Beppo. that little bugger can also drink with his nimble feet and prehensile tail.
Hope you're all having a good time in SD. Stuck here in DC, there is, of course no drunken debauchery in which to engage.

Lad Boy, you're in charge of Drunken Debauchery East this weekend. If only we could get an illegal teleporter set up in Tennessee....
Keanu Reeves stole lil rhino's line: "I love everybody" (but forgot the "and you're next" part).
Late in the day, we came under assault from the neighbouring booth's styrofoam pellet guns.
Not much Legion news at the panels and not much Legion presence at the DC Booth. *choke* (Not much Ambush Bug either - do I have a distorted sense of priorities?) We are making our own Legion flight rings and working on that teleporter, legal or not.
Holy Cats of Egypt!

They did talk about Ambush Bug a li'l at the DC Nation panel-- just that Giffin was doing the book, I think, though.

I also have the LW member known as Kinetix with me and we'd love to come put faces with names. We're on the Mezzanine. If you go down the back (Bayside) escalators, we're on the level before the ground floor/exhibit hall. Or find the neon "Cafe Express" and go to the escalators to the right (facing the back wall) and come up one level. We are on the right side from there. MZ19. Hope to see you here. (Posting from the table.)

This is so freakin' awesome! Lash called me a hottie!!!! My whole existence is validated!!!!! To the right of Caroline at that dinner picture would be me, Director Lad and Suddenly Seymour. Flanking MEL are Actor Lad and CJ. The lady in pink is Mechana.
