I remember the funniest part was that he really wanted to do The Last Song last, but the random choice kept picking it.

I watched, but on and off because it gets samey after a while. It's just a nice thing to tune into when you're bored. He was playing easy charts when I initially tuned in so that was kind of boring but it got better later obviously.

Yeah, on and off is the best way to watch it. I probably had it running the whole time in the background.....

Alright, just ordered my copy of Empress. This is how it's gonna work.

Probably gonna stream it live on October 17th (it would most likely arrive by then, I assume.) If not then, it would be on October 24th.

Gonna stream through justintv.

Gonna donate your donations to an organization to help the disaster relief efforts in the Philippines. Haven't found a specific one yet.

Gonna play all songs and all difficulties on Empress disc.

That's about it... I'll submit this as a news item, so hopefully this will be successful.

K i'll be watching it, I want my Himiko[b] chart.

Ok, updated with the charity details. It's gonna go towards a family that is in need of some assistance during difficult times. This could be a great thing for them.

looking forward to it

now go pratice more, I'm expecting epic videos

[DUBSTEPALLDAY]

Damn you're down in henderson...maybe we can get other vegas players to participate haha.

I will be watching this event with great interest and depending on finances this year I will see about making a donation.

Oh, I suggest taking regular breaks or having a 2nd player helping out cause given all the songs in this release, your hands will probably be fried for the next couple of days.

[Exagon]

I'll probably be streaming some EMPRESS myself, but of course after stickyfeetzero does his; I have no intentions of stealing his thunder

I guess I'd just do it for fun but it'd be cool if my stream also motivated people to donate to the cause!

[_____Cait]

Thanks for the support guys, I really hope this goes well.

I'll be adding the donations button soon.

I will be taking a few breaks here and there, and there will be little surprises during those breaks for you guys.

Milk Chan, maybe you can tell the other IIDX fans in Vegas about this? That would be awesome.

Also, if it's cool with the mods, can we sticky this or get it as a news story? I tried submitting but I guess it's not all that relevant.

And tell ya guys what, if this goes well, I'll even play Premium Disc on the Monday after =P

I know one off the top of my head, but contacting VGTA might be tough (although I know the arcade he works at).

This looks like a really solid event, but I was wondering if you could have more players other than yourself broadcasting from their own homes, kinda like a Multicast.

[_____Cait]

I was thinking about things like that. If anyone knows how, it'd be great.

Milk Chan, I'm wondering, since you live in Vegas, maybe we could VS play this thing if you wanted.

I know someone who wants to help, and thinks it needs to be spiced up a bit. They believe we could get more viewers if we have more variety, which I agree with.

BTW, it will be on 2PM Pacific US time on Saturday!
