“Are you ASHAMED? Good. Because you should be.”

“I know you came here for the LOVE of the GAME. And now you FUCKED IT UP for all of us.”

“You could have become a volunteer! All the schwag you could have gotten is worth a lot more than a fuckin’ PSP!”

And yes, he will be coming back next year.

“If you come back next year, I want you to e-mail me PERSONALLY and tell me what you have leanrned.”

“Just to clarify a bit (Quakecon security deserves some props in their efforts too… don’t want anyone going away thinking that Quakecon doesn’t take care of their guests).

After the PSP was reported stolen, help desk staff (mainly DKP and Mitchevious) were watching the DC++ channel and noticed that someone was trying to sell one. DKP then entered negotiations to buy it (so that we could look at serial numbers, MAC, etc). When we figured out that the device was going to be sold soon we started looking into actually procuring the device just to make sure it wasn’t lost for good (I had enough cash on me, just needed to make sure that someone could reimberse me). While we searched for the owner, a friend of mine (Dages) walked up and we talked for a second and it turned out he had seen PSP kid trying to sell it earlier so we could now get a visual identification to go with the name. Dages and I found him and he was carrying the PSP around trying to sell it. I asked Dages to follow him while I went to find my manager (Wiper). I ended up running into Executioner just as Dages called my cell to let me know a sale was going down (this is where Day_Dreamer’s very smart work came in). Executioner and I decided to scope out the sale and detain the seller pending the arrival of the owner (who was already there checking the devices MAC address). Executioner and I took the PSP into Quakecon custody and then Day_Dreamer found the sheriffs.”
