For all that seen the Comic Con Spoilers..I was suprised that they did not mention Soko on the paring slideshow actully...o_0 I think they just did mostly crackships for the first part, and then finished with the most popular. ;D Ain't that somethin'? Here's a biased point of view: I actually thought the same thing, on how they did mostly the crackships for the panel. I mean, they had EVERY SHIP in there, and SoKo clearly should've been there too (we had an episode of it too, for Pete's sake, and I know the creators didn't forget it). But then SoKo wasn't included or even mentioned, which leads me to this: SoKo is clearly not a crackship (*coughcuzit'sgonnahappencough*). Which makes me very happy. ;D Ahhhaaa Norfolk, some mind you got there, and that's certainly an interesting point of view! And as to why SongxZuko didn't make it into the shipping panel when everything, even some incest ships, made it in... is all an enigma to me.

But then SoKo wasn't included or even mentioned, which leads me to this: SoKo is clearly not a crackship (*coughcuzit'sgonnahappencough*). Which makes me very happy. ;D But that's not a very solid theory since various very canonically-supported ships were on the slideshow as well (Sokka/Suki, Sokka/Yue, Aang/Katara, etc.). It seems to me that they put up every ship they could think of (canon and not), along with ones that they'd seen on the internet (e.g. Koh/Azula). So if Song/Zuko isn't there, not only does it lack enough of a fandom for them to notice that people support it, but it's not notable enough for them to think of it themselves. Of course, I've been pretty pessimistic about the chances of Song/Zuko ever since they redesigned the Nick.com Avatar site, sadly. However, the clips at YouTube aren't the whole shipping panel. People who were there have said that the panel started with Haru/Katara which isn't in those clips, so it's still possible that we just didn't see the part with Song/Zuko.

We know, we're just speculating.
I thought that panel seemed a bit short--hopefully someone will put up the whole thing eventually. =p

I know you're just speculating. I was just offering an alternate viewpoint. I'm known for that.
I might see if I can ask someone I know who went if they remember Song/Zuko making an appearance on the panel.

GRAR! I'M BACK!
And there are new Sokoites!! At least, I think they're new. Did anyone change a name recently (specifically Murray: did you used to have a different name because I swear I know who you are but something isn't clicking)? Anywho, I welcome the new Sokoites!
And what's all this about a mystery date? And stuff? And why did Soko get snubbed on a slideshow? Argh *hits spoilers*
I am so happy right now! There are Sokoites in the Soko board and stuff is happening.
babbs, you owe me an explanation.

babbs, you owe me an explanation. Do I ever. You've missed a lot, buddy. Expect a long, detailed and biased report (or PM) on everything that's happened soon. ;D

You've missed a lot, buddy. *ahem* I had 5 internet windows open reading spoilers, and 3 YouTube videos playing simultaneously. I was also checking my email, talking to Awa, and catching up on the current themes on the icontests that I like to haunt. And crying over Mako's death. I'm about to explode from confusion and sensory overload.

^ LOL. Are you well-informed now or do you need that detailed explanation? xD;;; But dude, you should've seen all the crazy stuff that happened on here when the spoilers first arrived, and of course, Zuko's Mystery Date. Before her picture came out everyone was fangirling who it could be and fighting and foaming at the mouth--it was grand. ;D Almighty, Book and I were saddened that you weren't here to "celebrate" and fangirl with us though. ;__; (And if you visit One Hundred Moons, you can see six pages of our fangirling over the mystery date before we saw her image, and then we just died. ^_^;;

Everything and then some.
EDIT: Everything except Little Miss Mystery. I got the scoop on her, although I would like to be privy to any inside jokes about her I may have missed. And it's so obvious that Little Miss Mystery is Mulan, which makes me sad because I want it to be Song.
I want it to be Song very, very badly.
I changed my mind: I hate Soko. Just when I'm 100%, absolutely sure it is un-canon, it comes back with a teensy little hope of canon-y goodness. It has me like a fish on a line: I swim away and it yanks me back. Seriously, I can be totally happy with an un-canon Soko, but I'm really hoping for canon-Soko because that would be really cool and make me squee. And I keep thinking Soko no longer has a snowball's chance in hell of happening...and then a little tiny glimmer of hope comes along and teases me.

I know that, Gotterdammerung, that's why I said that it's a biased point of view. ;D But yeah, I suppose I'll just have to wait for that reply if SongxZuko was there from those who went. And gambitia, welcome back from your trip! New Sokoite here.
