GZG ECC V: The Quote Board

Greetings everyone,

Herein are the recorded quotes from the Quote Board at ECC V this
past weekend. I heard many more during the course of events, but
was often too busy to get those written down anywhere. Alas. However,
you can get a good flavor of things from these. You might notice a trend
here and there, as some people were quoted far more often than others.

And yes, in some cases the Narn Bat Squad should have made an appearance
to the offending quotee.

Anyway, enjoy the read. Jerry should be getting this up on the GZG-ECC
webpage soon. I'll ry to write up my own quick After Con Report as soon
as I get more time.

BTW, if your favorite quote from a particular game during the weekend
does
not appear on the list here, that's because it never made the Quote
Board.
Next year you'll have to be more dilligent at getting these things
recorded.
;-)
