 		I set up a quick twitter hashtag so we can all stay connected if we don't follow each other (thought I'm pretty sure we all do by now XD) it's #letsplayargame

Asked him how many players they're looking for. Nothing yet. ;A; Hope he's okay. :/

 		Yea. Exactly why I'm wondering if he's okay.

setting up a time limit before the game even gets underway? while I currently already <3 the atmosphere of this game, it's a bit too much for the players to handle, getting who knows how many players in a few hours. ;A;

 		Yeah, I e-mailed. It seems like it's gonna be... fast paced and not the best done? Just my knee jerk reaction.

Also: Anyone else notice how the timer on the youtube vid seemed to get caught for a moment towards the end? Anyone able to DL it and analyze it?

 		My point exactly. Sad He could have at least given us a full day... Sheeeeeeeeesh. >< Let's hope it's not game over before it even starts. Sad

I want a priiiiiiiiiiiiize.

Anyone else feeling a bit of Crucible in this game? Promise of prizes and the sudden WTFery.

Oh wait, none of you know what Crucible is. XD Nevermind.

 		I've got half a mind to try to email back to speak directly to whoever is controlling mr "Let's Play" who just freaked out on us, to get more info. Any objections?

No?
Good. i'll post what I figure out, if anything.

 		So, are we waiting around for another email? Another video? Should we keep an eye on the YouTube user that uploaded that video?

 		I think waiting game for now, idk.

Sent a rather formal email to appeal to... whoever is at the top of all this. Crossing my fingers that I'll get a reply.
