You thought Alan's threads would mark the end of this wacky period of change in the H&A ranks, didn't you?

You were wrong, mate.

Joining PeteC, Sioni Sais and comet in the new-look Hellhost team will be the one and only...

[Big Grin] orfeo [Big Grin]

Welcome to the team, my friend, I'm sure you'll fit in just fine!
 
Posted by PeteC (# 10422) on :
 
I will offer a mass for your private intentions, Orfeo. May God have mercy on your soul.

Welcome orfeo, to the glories of Hell.
 
Posted by Barnabas62 (# 9110) on :
 
Welcome to the wondrous world of Hosting, orfeo. I reckon orfeo and the underworld has a kind of nice ring to it.

[Don't forget you'll need an infernal Hostly instrument - and Sioni has already acquired the Oddjob Bowler.]
 
Posted by orfeo (# 13878) on :
 
That's right folks. Orfeo's not just in the Underworld now. He's Management.

Oooo! Love the combustible avatar!
 
Posted by orfeo (# 13878) on :
 
The arrival of the avatar is in fact coincidence, but a very happy one!
 
Posted by Banner Lady (# 10505) on :
 
Great avatar. Shit tag, though. Ship's Musical Counterpoint might have been closer to the mark.

BL. As hellish as I get.
 
Posted by Niteowl (# 15841) on :
 
Congrats on the new avatar (love it!) and on the hosting gig. Don't get too singed. [Biased]

Ooh. I think I like it! Will keep that in mind.

The existing tag came from a Purgatory thread a few weeks ago that got rather Hellish and involved the word "Ignoramus" being thrown at me. I caught it and decided to keep it as a pet.


Psst. Everyone. It was BL who first told me about the Ship. So if this goes horribly wrong, it's all her fault. Okay? Ta.

Welcome to the long hours and weeping and gnashing of teeth, orfeo! Oops, I mean, welcome to our new Host! [Biased]

I assume you've gotten comfy in the Hosts' Lounge? Brain bleach is there => and GIN and other delights are <= there.
 
Posted by Scarlet (# 1738) on :
 
orfeo, congratulations!

wishing you all the best (whatever that can be in Hell...) [Biased]

Oh, he's not going to be singed. He will do the singe-ing. [Two face]

Oh, I don't know. [Angel] There are sekrit panels where a person might find just about anything. [Biased]

You seriously think I'm gonna take the rap if you fall on your face?
Grandmother. Suck. Eggs.

You're on your own, sweetcheeks.

Good luck all and may I ask why marvin's name doesn't appear with the other evil despots/illuminaries.

The answer is here.

And I gather that is Mr Marvin to the likes of you and me.

You tell 'im, hon. [Big Grin]

Orfeo, I gotta say, there was a time, when you were a scrappy little newbie, that you really did put a bug up my ass. No, really. All that faux irritation I displayed in Hell? Wasn't really faux.

( [Biased] )

Now I can honestly say you are one of my favorite people on the Ship. With a straight face, even. It'll be great to call you a colleague. [Big Grin]

Good lord.

It truly is a new heavens and a new earth.

I was going to sugest "Ship's Compulsive Lyre", but yours works too [Biased]

Looking at the infernal hostly line-up, I was struck by the idea of PeteC as the patriarch of the underworld. Suddenly I feel the need to raid the mindbleach cupboard....

I may be both blind and stupid but I could not find why Mr Marvin's name is not listed as a Styx host? If he's going to suffer, least he should get some glory.

Alan (Alan Cresswell) isn't named as a Styx host either. (I'm just writing this one off as one of the mysteries of the Ship I don't know, but if it's important I'll no doubt find out in time.)
 
Posted by comet (# 10353) on :
 
there are different roles under the admin banner. if I remember correctly, member admins are also styx hosts. but there are also host admins, tech admins, stuff like that.

Thanks. I did actually wonder if your name was omitted by accident. Good luck hosting the unruly mob.., ahem hosting the hosts and admins.

I'm still getting over the part where they forced me to wear an orange tutu while reciting Pam Ayres.

No wonder they need to restock the GIN in the lounge.

Trouble is, the GIN and the brain bleach are in nigh-identical bottles.

A behind-the-scenes Hosts Board? It's a secret conspiracy, I tell you! How dare they? [Biased]

I'm going to enjoy seeing orfeo hosting Hell. Congrats, neighbour.

How's that going? Did they end up deciding whether to keep Britney Spears on the shortlist?

EDIT: Damn. Wrong board. Damn damn damn.
