That is the funniest thing I've read in a long time

But how much money do you think each person is going to need for this anyway? I managed to get 30$ so far...

Well, it's obviously going to differ by the person. For most people the high costs will be from travel. For you, that won't cost ya nothin. So I don't know. If someone has ideas for reasonable price ranges, I can see what kind of places are available. I don't want to get anything too fancy to afford, or anything too bad. You know?

It's been stated before, and probably assumed to those who havent read it, but this convention is cancelled due to lack of interest.

Technically, you are grammarically correct. However, in the context, you are wrong.

"Now everyone pay attention to the topic." = Present. Request. You're wanting everyone to pay attention, now.

However, surely, you mean:

"Now everyone is paying attention to the topic." = Present. Verb. You're indicating that everyone is paying attention to the thread, as their action.

You are so bad at typing/talking/anything that uses your brain.

I'm glad there is no relation between us.

You caught him Anthony. Way to keep him in line.
Just because you're older, smarter, stronger, more talented... doesn't mean you're BETTER.

unfortunately Anthony, you forgot the paraliguistic features of Nick's post.

By placing verbal stress on "NOW" indicates the focus is on the time, that everyone is indeed paying attention now, but the phrasing, along with the socially coded intonation, register, and tone indicates this 'command' is actually sarcasm.

You are so bad at decoding communication within a context/detecting sarcasm/anything that uses your brain.

I'm glad there is no relation between us.
