Thanks to Slick for organising this team! In the past we've become cynical about relying on volunteers to show up for their VG shifts but this time we were totally blown away by the dedication shown by each volunteer we encountered (as opposed to the usual appreciation we have for the outstanding work of a very hard working few).

I'll take credit for knowing good volunteers when I see them, but the rest is ALL thanks to my volunteers. I've said it countless times, but thank you so much. You guys and girls were absolutely amazing. I'm so proud of the team this year, and you should all be proud of yourselves. I just hope you weren't overworked too much; I know it was a tough weekend for a lot of you.

Honestly, there was times when I felt like the cosplayers were going to kill me for moving them around to the other entrance of Hall E :lol:

Though, volunteering can be a little dull if you're in a quiet area, which is why I relished when it came time to sorting out Hall E, over and over. Cosplayers, Press and of course, the audience. Though, I was much of a fan of continuosly running up and down there stairs trying to fit on late comers. :evil:

I was worked like a horse, but I work best that way. Give me action and I'll work well.

I hope to be a part of the team again next week.

During 2006 "pirates vs ninjas" the volunteer was from Video games.
