He's betrayed us! Surely, if he was briefly thanked by the author of the same book that made a typo that said "relativistic thrust steam", there must be something fishy!darthdavid wrote:Well I'll be damned, mike wong is listed in the list of people saxton would like to thank.

Of course, that would be silly, wouldn't it? Authors thank their dogs in acknowledgements sections!Winston Blake wrote:Hmmm, i can't seem to see any indication of edition in the back pages of mine. Although interestingly, the acknowledgements for Curtis Saxton include a lot of SW debaters. Some i recognise are Bob Brown, Wayne Poe, Brian Young and Mike Wong.
Maybe one of the reasons darkstar hates the ICS is because he would have to accept that MW and other enemies are mentioned in a piece of SW canon...

BTW Mike, PM me for your turn to use the Saxton Brain Wave manipulator this weekend.

I can confidently say they don't. We're a tiny niche compared to most sites, fairly low on the list of SW boards the higher-ups would bother checking.Admiral_K wrote:For all we know, Curtis Saxton could be one of the people who posts on this site.
I've always sort of wondered if he, or Lucas, or someone else has ever been here.
By His Word...
We have lots of lurkers here. I know Curtis looks in here from time to time. Mike could probably tell you if anyone from Lucasfilm has been here. Curtis had hits from Lucasfilm staffers from the stats on his website for years.Utsanomiko wrote:I can confidently say they don't.

Just curious, this has nothing to do with the topic, but I find your cartoon strip a bit offensive. I am a Diabetic and I donot see the humor in it...Lord Poe wrote:We have lots of lurkers here.

It's part of a series. They're all like that. That one in particular isn't against diabetics, it's just weird.
There's one where a villian calls up Parker and tells him "I am gay for you, Spider-Man!".

And asking Poe would be better suited in the PM instead of somewhere it makes virtually no sense whatsoever.

And for the record, I assumed it was probably a joke before I even clicked on the topic. I just got a hilarious image of Astromech Droids shoveling coal into a furnace while singing.
I'm sure people figured this, but I got the impression Saxton's thanks to Wong (at least) was not because Saxton hangs around here and trolls like we do, but because when he was doing his SWTC site, people sent in info that was useful to him, and one of those folks was Wong.Lord Poe wrote:We have lots of lurkers here.
