- yeah, they look so empty. I keep thinking my browser isn't rendering the page completely.

- It's an ode to buckminister fuller's idea for houses built inside airborne heated orange speech balloons. No?

- I have the same question myself! (Didn't realize they were showing up for everyone.)

- Inside mine I can see how the developers have graded you as a tester.
  Man, some of you need to pull your socks up and nibble some more piggies.

- Ha ha ha... I thought some sort of bullet would be useful for jumping between comments. Particularly with threads with a lot of paragraphs it was hardish to tell where one started and the next started. These are a bit lame, but that was the idea. I'll put a bit more thought into it.

- I LIKE the speech balloons! It accomplished just what you intended! The comments were all running together, and now they're not.
  Not lame!

- I don't think they are lame, and now that you mention it, they do work that way.

- Now there are little blue staff ones that are fairly useful methinks. I'll do something small to improve the yellow ones and make them seem a little less empty. (well, useful when the system thinks your staff... which it doesn't think I am for some reason)

- oh yes, the staff ones are cute.
  ours should say 'pleb', obviously.

- Yeah, and I'll give them little flecks of dirt... you know, for the unwashed masses.

- Ok, I am digging the balloons now, with the diff colors for staff and players. And the little scribbles in the players' balloons, that might or might not actually be little flecks of dirt...nicely done.
