I'm so happy to see brentalfloss' work on OCR. I loved the video on YouTube. Great job.

I went to ISU, too! Look me up next time you're around for sure! When did you graduate?

Well, judging from the dates that everyone is wanting to meet up, it's a little too soon for me to arrange something, but if we wanted to plan something for later on in the year, I work at a hotel out here in West Des Moines, Iowa. I could probably get a huge block of rooms reserved for everyone and maybe even use of the meeting room, drop screens, and LCD projector for one giant meet-up. I'm thinking the rate for the rooms would be anywhere between 59.99-79.99. And the immediate area has a ton of restaurants/bars around. There is a dueling piano bar in the immediate vicinity that we sent a lot of business to, so I could possibly get something worked out with them for some good music, and maybe we could get some of our artists to perform--who knows? If there is enough interest in the idea, I could put it into motion and get details for everyone. I'm thinking September/October time period? Anyone interested?

I don't know what to say . . . I just quoted him to my roommate the other day, too. "It's time to kick ass and chew bubblegum . . . and I'm all out of bubblegum." I really hope this goes through because I remember hearing about DNF way back when, and was royally disappointed when nothing happened . . . *crosses fingers*

You got my vote, good buddies, and I shall pass the word on to as many as I can. W00T for the comrades of the OCR peeps!

Gotcha. I didn't know either way. But it was neat to think of the possibility. Besides, I figured it wouldn't be what Starcraft 2 was like--that seemed a little too close to the original. But aside from that video, I DID hear something about a 4th race. Kinda funny how that all seems to flow together though, huh?

I was reading about this stuff just the other day. Here is what I read (and what seems interesting about the possibility of a Starcraft 2): Apparently rumor has it there will be a 4th race. I saw this video on google, and the extra character in there looked like a protoss zealot, except with some extra arms with claws coming out, which matched up with the storyline of the secret Zeratul mission in which you uncover the protoss-zerg hybrid. Maybe the new race is prozerg or zertoss; or maybe it's something new all together--if, in fact, there is a new race, or a Starcraft 2 for that matter. The site I was reading this on said that there was a leak from Blizzard, and it had something to do with Korea. As for Diablo 3, I was reading about the MMO possibilities. That there are two sides: Angels and Demons, with the humans being split between each side. If you consider how the game ended, they could easily do an MMO take on the storyline. The prime evils may be destroyed, but without the world stone to keep the forces of hell at bay, there could be a never-ending war between the forces of good and evil for the control of the world. If you have ever heard the Diablo Sin War Remix, you might recall a few things in the lyrics/story that give light to the fact that humans would ally with either side. And who knows, maybe there will be something to do with the Horadrim, although Deckard Cain is supposed to be the last. There are a lot of options with Diablo, too. Basically, I say the chances for either are very high. Although I'd love to see a Diablo MMO game, I would be just as happy to see Starcraft 2 finally make it to the shelves.

How exciting! Congratulations, bladiator.

I'm sooooo psyched. I can already tell this is going to be sweet!

YES! Go Drake! I feel so relieved to know that there are others in the DSM area who have an interest in OCR. I'm excited for this ball to get rolling. Even though I went to ISU, I still have to give you props!

Right on, man. If I were you, I'd jump on that. Sounds like you're getting hooked up.

I always have to explain what OCR is to just about everyone I know--even the major gamer friends of mine. Is there anyone else from Iowa that knows what OCR that I have not explained it to? I wish we could have a midwest meet-up.

I was left speechless after seeing the movie (in a good way). This film has easily captured a spot in my top 5 favorites of all time. I did find it funny how the Spartans seemed to be clean of the Persian's blood in most of the scenes, although they were opening people up left and right. Nevertheless, that didn't even take anything away from the awesomeness of the movie. Frank Miller is a genius.

I second that notion. I have missed his avid interest in The Magic of Scheherezade, alongside his other great works.
