The HBO Forum Card Game Needs You!
A couple of weeks ago, pete_the_duck announced a project he called the 'HBO Forum Card Game' - he was going to create a game based on forum members. It sounded pretty amazing! Unfortunately, not enough of you are signing up - he's worried the deadline (December 23) will arrive before he receives enough applications to make the game feasible. He's not willing to beg you to sign up - so I'm going to do that for him. Please sign up! This could be a super-fun project, but it can't happen without you. Full details on how to submit a card can be found in this post. (Louis Wu 16:18:56 UTC) (permalink)

Kete stopped by to announce a couple of things earlier this week; apologies for neglecting to point this out.

Think of it as a podcast within a podcast. And Riot Sandbox will open the discussion up to whatever you'd like to talk about - think of it as an open mic night. Check out the post for details! The first Spectator Mode 'cast will be with the Forward Unto Dawn crew, tomorrow night at 9pm Eastern. Tune in! (Louis Wu 15:59:37 UTC) (permalink)

Only YOU can save the Warthogs.
Heh - pretty cool. t00lbox found that if you skip the cave tunnel you need to walk through at the beginning of Requiem, the Warthogs on the other side don't get destroyed! (So... it looks like YOU'RE responsible for blowing those bad boys up. Nice going... jerk.) Check it out - then try it for yourself! (Louis Wu 15:39:31 UTC) (permalink)
