Ok so here's my question... was there a loot 18 that i just missed?

Like I mentioned before, we'll be giving out a few Delicious Generation T-shirts for loot in this heist. When the mini-heist closes at the end of the week, we'll be randomly picking 3 winners...

Also, feel free to digg it:

At this point, we're not planning to sell the shirts.

But we'll likely be giving them out at our party at WWDC. I'm assuming you'll be there, step, since you're a Mac dev...oh, wait tongue April 1...bah!

Hah, I wondered if you noticed that.  big_smile

Unfortunately, no plans to be at WWDC at this point.  I've got too much going on, and I haven't made any money yet. . . Not to mention we already have my brother's graduation from the Air Force Academy, a wedding, and lots of other things that will be taking up all my bandwidth in May / June timeframe.  sad  I definitely plan to be there a year from now, though, if everything goes as planned.

I am gonna have to pester you about those shirts, though, because I really want one.  smile
