[UPDATE] May 20th - Scarlet Kite New Entry
Quote:
OMG! The guys at Mind Candy are having the most incredible time at the E3 convention in Los Angeles... they've been sending me all their news and keeping me up to date with how it's going. They've met a whole bunch of journalists, and some of the people on Earth who are already looking for the Cube. It seems like my dad was right - people are getting just as excited about the game as I am! Also, they've been schmoozing the celebrities too. They met Wil Wheaton and Virgil Tatum who's apparently some famous game designer. No fair - I wanna be there!

OMG indeed
So, I'm curious: how does she know who Wil Wheaton and Virgil Tatum are? (well, she's clearly got a bit of research to do on the latter...) Internet access alone? TV shows beamed into space?

Perhaps PPC is where people who were once in television shows go when their career dries up? Then Scarlet would know Wil Wheaton cos he prolly works in Crispy Heaven in PPC, wondering if fries are wanted with that!

Sorry, Jeb, britishness is no excuse. Wil Wheaton is probably best known for playing the dashing young Wesley Crusher in Star Trek TNG. More recently he has become quite popular around the place for blogging and generally being a Nice Guy.

Oh fair enough. I used to watch some Star Trek when it was on tv now and again, but I don't know actors names... :S
Ah well, thanks for the answer
