How many times did you two watch it? Got it once through just the video on Friday night, 3 times including extras on Saturday and 4 times today so I can say that's it's been thoroughly tested.

Bad News: It has some "flaws" that'll have to be fixed before production.

More Bad News: Only one easter egg, and I had to use some software to find it. The menuing doesn't work like it was supposed to.

Really Bad News: The wet t-shirt footage was apparently too poor quality and sparse to include. Next time perhaps we can get some better footage from some of the other cameras wandering around...

Good News: Progress. It's my understanding the fixes are already underway.

More Good News: The winner of the wet t-shirt contest gave me a very nice shot of her boobies (without her face, so you'll have to guess which ones) that has been included. There are also some dz.com boobies mixed in there...

Really Good News: I'm in it.

Might I make the suggestion to have announcements about donating footage to the editors through out the day?

Should have asked Clay.. .he got 40 minutes of footage and a few VERY close up shots ;)

Great suggestion. I will make it a point to do so. We will also be looking for digital photos for the new freefall.com gallery.

The plan is to have the ability to order prints from the gallery during the Convention and throughout the year.

I'm in it too:)

Micheal and I couldn't find any of the Easter Eggs when we were viewing at my house. Hope that gets fixed.

Edited to add: Lisa is in there too. Gee, can you say "Media Whore"?

It's well worth the wait.

So how many months more delay should we expect because of all the bad news?
