“Die murloc filth!” Loldude247’s assault was swift. His sword sang death even as his shouts roused the sleeping family.

I’m a day late on this, i think! But Second Skin is premiering in New York, and they want to sell tickets.

Today’s the day!� Tickets have just gone on sale for the NYC premiere of our little documentary on virtual worlds, Second Skin.� We would love to have all of you there, and would be honored if you’d join us at our hometown premiere.� If we sell out this theater fast enough, we might get other NYC theaters to notice, and give us a good run- which would create a lot more press, and help us with our theatrical release later this year.

If you could please BUY TICKETS HERE and forward this message along to *everyone* you know, we might sell out within the day- our humble goal.� Thanks to all of you for making� this movie such an unbelievable success.

David Kushner, author of the excellent Masters of Doom (which I have the galleys of somewhere around here, and which came in at #1) managed to type in the full list. I’ll have to see if I can find a copy of the article.

Edit: here’s the article.
