Sorry we've been MIA from the forums the last few days.... we're dealing with looming deadlines and not enough time in the day.

Just to address a few things:

Shannah:
Leave it to our former AssProd (associate producer) Shannah to come in and stir up the forums with a couple "tool" remarks. She asked for it, so it was funny to see everyone bust her balls on it. She's just jealous she doesn't work at TS anymore. But, she's fiesty, so watch out:

TS Parties:
Greedoe, DLee, CT, Lakeland and everyone who's helping put together the forum parties - thank you SO MUCH! Unfortunately, we're unable to host any parties "officially" (legal reasons) so it's a really good feeling to see you guys step in and plan this thing where we have to step aside. We'll do what we can to round up some free stuff for you guys to distribute (as prizes, or whatever) and we definitely plan to spend more time hanging out this year. But we owe you guys for making this happen:

Fan signs contest:
Well, the deadline is coming up and we only have a handful of entries - you guys need to get busy. Due to a confusion in the rules, we'll accept everyone's submitted signs to date, even if they don't meet the original requirements. We hope the fansigns that are submitted between now and the Feb __ deadline do have Tripsmarter in the actual photo somewhere, rather than "photoshopped" in. The ones who do have Tripsmarter in them will recieve double entry into the raffle portion. Photoshopped signs will only receive the standard entry. You guys keep submitting either way and we'll take them:

Chat:
Dang it, this thing is a little buggy. We hope to have it fixed soon:
Spring Break Chat Room

Facebook:
We have a new Facebook page... become a fan of TS! We hope to utilize Facebook to let you guys know about last mionute concert and party announcements, and to notify about our live broadcast schedule for the Spring Break Channel.

New faces:
