I wish I could have come!

I had a show with my band tonight, also as a 20 year old college student with not much money who lives in southeastern Connecticut I'd have to spend a pretty penny to take the train into the city. I'd also rather have had a friend to go with, but besides a few people I've shown the video none of my friends know anything about this.

Maybe next time (I really hope something like this happens again) the situation will work out better.

Re: RAW VIDEO FOOTAGE

ALL the videos have successfully been updated!

I will say up front that there is a LOT of dead, boring, footage on these clips. I plan on doing some editing and getting videos up with only the highlights.

So, you're about to embark on about 55 minutes of footage from today. Rough and unedited. If you wonder why there's about 10 minutes of the camera just focusing on the ground, it was because I didn't want Joey to get pissed off at me holding the camera in his face the ENTIRE time we were standing there.

There are five (5) videos total.

Video 1/5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MkYiageKuM
Meeting up at Cleopatra's Needle up to random chit chat with Joey

Video 2/5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4z2fcsL4RQ
Random chit chat with Joey, Relia gets the Champion Dynasty Fund, People in Red arrive

Video 3/5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBNwllf00RI
More people arrive, Worker attacks (6:00), We defend, Mars Madison's message is delivered.

Video 4/5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8-nZJnKARQ
We sort out Mars Madison's message, which leads us downtown. I don't have the footage of the car ride on my camera. Sad Be sure to catch Businesswomen Alpha, Beta, and Gamma at the end of the video.

Video 5/5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNbHcIm2ldU
The reading of MM's diary. THE END!

Thanks for watching, and let's hope this helps TIMM go viral!

Those videos are great! Thanks for uploading them.

So I'm wondering, if family trees are used to repel GoDSEED fragments, what were the flare guns for? Or are family trees perhaps really rare? (Can't be too rare if Joey is stockpiling them, right?) If you don't have a family tree, carry a flare gun?

great stuff. I almost died when Worker broke into the power run. Thank you all so much for going.

FWIW ... I checked Mars' friends list and there is a young lady matching the name of the girl red-coat. I won't link or anything, because I am sure she is out of game, but her profile pic does look to be the same girl as in the video and she lives in NY.

Been lurking for a while, but keeping up.

This is the coolest thing I've ever seen before. Thank you for posting the videos, Big T! So jealous, but I live on the West coast now (Portland)...but having the video makes up for it.

BONUS! Very Happy

Awesome gang!

I wish I could've been there.

So this means that in the second video, Joey is demonstrating how to defeat Worker.

Does anyone else note a bit of ironic similarity between the battle against worker and the classic 'lightnight bolt lightning bolt sleep'?

I'm mightly impressed if this was intentional.
