First and foremost, happy new year to all! Thanks for taking part in the holiday giveaway, and for being so supportive this 2009 year. I went ahead and recorded the entire process on my screen from beginning to end - the three winners are listed as "1, 2, and 3" close to the end of the video (they're also highlighted).
Without further ado, enjoy the completely unedited and boring film:
Congratulations to the winners, please private message me and I will send you the prizes!
Site Update: Holiday Giveaway!
With all of the shooting, the explosions, and worst of all... the assassinations, I'm glad we can at least have a bit of our year dedicated to some peace and giving. Having said that, I will soon be hosting a Holiday giveaway that anyone and everyone can participate it - there's just a few rules!
Rules:
1. You must have at least 200 posts by the end of this 2009 year in order to win (if you're short as of now, start posting a lot more).
2. You must reply to this thread in order to be submitted into the random drawing. 3. If you are a premium member then you are exempt from the post count requirement, even if you just have 1 post, you will still be submitted to win.
That's it! As long as you have the required number of posts and have replied to this topic, you will be entered to win. I will be using a tool that randomizes each person and the person chosen from it will be the winner.
- The Grand Prize winner will receive 4,000 MS Points and a gift of their choice for no more than $100.
- The Second Place winner will receive 4,000 MS Points and a $15 iTunes gift card.
- The Third Place winner will receive 4,000 MS Points.
This is just my way of saying thank you, and hopefully you all have a wonderful holiday.

"What was I talking about? Right. The recording light.
Truth be told, if you spent any amount of time scrounging around in the dark recesses of our podcast recording studio, you actually might come away with some discarded change, a few carelessly dropped crumbs, and maybe even an unexplained and long dormant disease. (It's a bit of a mess in there.)
We came away with something else after spending some time in there this week. Not a podcast, we'll get those back up and running in due time. But we did flip the four mics on and coax a trio of designers into the comfy confines of our close quarters recording studio, made sure they sidled up nice and close to one another, and then forced them to commentate on some of the levels they designed and the accompanying achievements they concocted, eyes open - A Clockwork Orange style.
We were calling it Mystery Science Theater 2552. Jim called it "Urk telling dick jokes." Don't worry, it'll be bestowed with a more fitting and proper name before it's all said and done."

"If you're out there doing big things in Firefight and wondering why your skills weren't quite stacking up against the highest of the high scores we put on display, now you know exactly why. If you're now thinking to yourself, I'm so gonna hop on a Chopper and ride out the Firefight waves for twenty-one hours straight, be our guest. Just make sure you pause every so often to take in some of the important things in life like nutrition, personal hygiene, and socializing with your friends and family."
