The Art of the Heist campaign was one of the four finalists at the April 19th "Battle of the Brands" held in NYC at NBC's Studio 8H in Rockefeller Center. Although it didn't win the top prize, it was awarded the "Creativity Award".

Joe is certainly making the rounds on television lately. He's on Criminal Minds tonight. Yay Joe!

Our favorite non-computer knowledgable hacker Ian (aka Joe Sikora) is/was on Grey's Anatomy tonight (Nov 6th). He's the pregnant guy :D

FINALLY -- Credits!

Told you guys it was crazy. That doesn't even count all the volunteer extras (like J.D.'s wife who's Lativan and did a few Russian voice mails, as a random example.) Or all the modders in the videogame community that we licensed models from to build the machinima segments (let alone the other six people on the core machinima team.)

You know, Monello didn't have a grey hair in his head before the Heist started, now that I think of it.

:roll:

FINALLY -- Credits!

WOW..

Tthis has got to be the biggest ARG production team we ever had, isn't it?

The best was when the limo guy swung into the parking lot, and the headlights lit up your face. Nisha made me sit in the passenger seat, so I totally saw you, and the look of resigned horror that you were, once again, confronted with us and our suspicious hostility.

Heheheheheheheheheheheheheh.

I would like to thank....

Jim, there's one thing that people of this community should (or already do) know about me is that I never EVER take myself too seriously. Those that can laugh at themselves will never run out of amusement!

I loved the "port-o-potty commando" line! I was honored to have made it in-game. That was nothing compared to all the jokes in #heist the night of the Chicago op, and all the jokes I made about myself while talking to Diandra. For a good laugh and to see what kind of fun we all had, check the log: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/download.php?id=3334

Even though some of the fun was at my expense, I didn't care. It was just so great to be involved. And you can be sure my name tag in NYC will say "Port-o-potty Commando!"

Coming to ARGFest? We want to talk to you! Yes you!

BIG thanks to everyone who responded to my request. We will be contacting everyone shortly to try and schedule a time to interview you. Since the time frame is so brief, and the activities are plenty, I doubt we will get to everyone but we'll sure give it the old college try.

Thanks again to everyone for helping!

I would like to thank....

Haven't you guys realized yet that you were really the stars of the show?

I don't know about that, but my family did finally stop thinking I was crazy when they saw my picture on the stolena3 site. :lol:

It was especially nice having so much backup when the Trolls would wander in.

I couldn't believe it - I put down a troll and it made it into Business Week. Possibly the proudest moment of my life
