T11 Round Table Discussion - Wayne Houchin

[Dana Hocking]

theory11 roundtable discussion : Wayne Houchin

Hello and welcome to tonight's round table discussion featuring Wayne Houchin. It goes a little something like this:

The time now is 7:30pm EDT. You have from now until 10:00pm EDT (2 hours and 30 minutes) to submit any questions you may have for tonight's round table guest, Wayne Houchin. All questions are fair game (unless they refer to his compulsive eyeliner use which he's very sensitive about). Up to 3 non-eyeliner related questions per member.

Questions should obviously be professional and on topic. We will select 5 - 10 questions from this thread to be asked during a podcast interview with Mr. Houchin himself. A link to the podcast will be posted in this thread at 11:00pm EDT tonight.

If we pick your question to answer, that means you're special. And you win stuff. Specifically, you win the 1-on-1 video of your choice on the house. Woot.

Remember that all questions must be in on or before 10:00pm EDT. If you post after that, we will curse you under our collective breath and then do nothing about it. Don't say we didn't give you fair warning.

UPDATE: Check out the podcast HERE.
