    Don't waste your fr1st ps0t by saying something lame and timid like that! Say something funny/bizarre/creative for godssakes! And have some conviction! Say something like, I don't know:

    "I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD AND I HAVE ACHIEVED FIRST POST... PREPARE FOR MY JUDGMENT"

    Or at least something like:

    "I claim this first post in the name of my balls: Harry (left) and Mr. Nut (right)."

    Now go forth with this wisdom.

    It's a Kangaroo court. Just like Operation SunDrivel. It bears watching mostly to see what points they are going after hardest.

    Beyond that there isn't much of a case to be made.
