Bobbin said he'd go through them and put them into a user-friendly format, but since it went on all day and into the early hours, I think it may take some time, so the full logs are available if anyone wants them, as I'm a bit lazier than him. I made a few notes about what was brought up in each topic, except when I went on coffee or WoW breaks.
The time that each major topic was started is noted below, so you can jump straight to parts which may be of interest. Note that the time is in GMT+1, not server time. I wasn't changing my clock for you lot.
