Poor HHM... I don't think Virgil was pleased with her critiquing his physics engine. Didn't anyone ever tell Virgil -- you mess with one Coachella 5 member, you mess with all of Coachella 5. Smile

You know, if knocking off ARG members ends up selling more cars for Audi we may all be mortal danger.

Actually it was Em who had me offed. Virgil was just a pawn... a manicly depressed lying bastard of a pawn. But a pawn none the less...

I think.

whilst everyone is sleeping heres a quick and dirty summary of what happened for those awake now and want to know what happened
(at the ungodly hour of 4am for me)
1) watch latest easter egg, on stolen a3
2) read chat here: this goes before and through the events
http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=171134#171134

Basically what happened, after 1 1/2 hrs of the party, Virgil stood up to speak about everything, about the culmination of the new game etc
then half way through speech, plasma screens behind him static, and easter egg film comes on he gets flustered says "ahh this is motion capturing example", trys to continue.. then nisha gets nasty, Emile says hes Arclight... and hes not too sure ... calls for Emile... so now he starts screaming for the techies to turn the screen off they dont, so he shouts "Jay, you're fired" and marches off to techie desk and thats where nisha comes in, in person and Virgil reverses back to stage. Nisha quizzes virgil about ian. "wheres ian" a bit of tenseness, virgil is saying nisha is trying to ruin things, control things, Nisha gives little punch... is angry.. hopping..
virgil finally gives in, and behind him, is big audi curtain
says "yeah, ive got ian, here he is"
pull cord, big curtain falls, red audi behind. Virgil says "I WON THE GAME, I FOUND THE CAR..." (he seems really oblivious to heist)
ian tied up inside it nisha rescues ian, (girl in crowd shout "Ian, I love you!"...) ian is pissed, ian says "you!...you are the one behind all this!", ights virgil, virgil gets thrown back onto stage...picks up nisha-cutout and uses it to defend himself. Nisha says something like "come on, hes not worth it"...Nisha and ian exit
virgil screams for cameras to be turned off. feed ends

im sure better accounts from partygoers will follow, in which case this post can be deleted. Smile

You know, I was just watching the video of the presentation last night again and it was really beautiful. Virgil's performance was top-notch, from his double-take when he originally saw the video on the monitors, to him trying to talk over the dialog on the speakers, to his egotistical ravings about "I did it! Me, Virgil Tatum!", to his threatening Ian with the cutout of Nisha. So symbolic - the closest he will ever get to Nisha is a thin two dimensional piece of cardboard.

Great writing and acting, good puzzles, good times.
