2009 Watchies

Post by Vain »

They're locked and loaded - grab them while they're hot :) Of course I hope I haven't screwed it up :)

I added the 2009 WOTY to Furls Fire - I trust that was correct?

Of course for 2010 I shall endeavour not to screw things up again :)

Thank you, Vain!!!

All Watchy away recipients, please go to The Watchy Store to add the Watchy tag to your items.

And yes, Vain. WOTY goes to Furls. Fire Daughter can now choose whether to display it or not.

As one of the vocal group of 2009 winners jonesing for an official tag (at least until ali so firmly reproved that winning ought to be sufficient honor :roll: ):

Thank you, Vain for overcoming the technology hurdles and getting these posted!

Thanks, too, to our 2009 Watchy mod (and concierge-in-chief) for persistence on this until last aspect of the Watchy cycle was done.

You get it in the store, and it differs only in that it can be displayed in your "User Items" under your avatar.

I've clicked on the link, but, don't seem to be able to select the item to buy? Do we need to sell the one in our signature first?

Be sure to put a "1" in the empty box on the left.

Oh, OK, I hadn't tried that, I thought it was a check box, not displaying properly :oops:

Thanks,

OK, I purchased it successfully, and when I click on "User Items" it shows it's there, but, it's not displaying itself?

You shouldn't say stuff like that; nobody's sniped at me.

I agree. I mean, he's never rhymed once.

Or, in his language:
