    I wasn't able to get good framerate from Quicktime with the DivX component installed, but got it to work with VLC. Try that.

    Hey now.

    Gimme.

    Also, what about the 'swooping' shots during the concerts? I'm convinced that's all the footage is going to be from them...

    Nope. The swooping thing was just to get different angles to cut/fade to, they still had the cameras on teh floor as well.
    The concert stuff is actually very well done, and the audio is 1609846397% better than last year :P

    I got teh dvd as a gift from the khoo (a few enforcers did). They should be for sale soon.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You're welcome, dude! Well, I didn't throw that box, but I was driving the kart that did. Man, if that is in the DVD, that'll really help me tell that story again and again and again. (Just to make sure you're talking about me, that was at Mushroom Bridge, right before the tunnel, right?)

    Say, it looks like Alon Waison, the host of Chatterbox Gameshow is in that trailer (about 17-18 seconds form the start).

    So not necessarily anything from the MKDD tourney, eh? Hmm.

    Anyways, if they're giving away 25 copies of the DVD at the Barnes & Noble signing, should I expect that we should be able to order the DVDs sometime before that?

    Supposedly, they're supposed to be on the site today, but I guess it's been pushed back to tomorrow?

    Sometime REALLY soon.

    Good times, good times! I had an absolutely beautiful view of eelektric to my left, as the fake item rained from the heavens onto him, and for a precious moment, God existed and declared me TEH WINNAR.

    Hmm, I guess I won't be buying the DVD if it only shows the Omegathon Mario Kart. Too bad.

    Heres hoping they do a Double Dash tournament again this year... I still think the co-op system makes it the best Mario Kart to date and hope it sticks around a while longer... And the inevitable Mario Kart Revolution better bring back the co-op...

    if you just want to watch yourself play go get a mirror :P

    Theres a lot more to the dvd set than gameplay (thats only one of the disks) The concerts/pannels make it worth the purchase.

    Espically for me because I was too busy working on 4th floor to do any other things.

    I am in the trailer! YES! There is a God and he/she/it likes me better than people who are not in the trailer! WOO!

    Now, for the edification of the "little people" i.e. you, I will show you how to find me: Right after the shot of Khoo at 25 seconds, there's a sped-up shot of people entering the big panel/concert room. The lyrics right about there are "...the toilet paper, Frontalot could own the PA song..." As he says "Frontalot", you can see a dorky-ass geek in a black hat and a bright red t-shirt entering the room. That geek is me.

    I WIN!

    That's when most of them took place, I assume.

    After I got back to the hotel, most people were already drunk and ready to pass out. :|
