A few things to mention that will probably keep this blog pretty quiet until the 11th of June. OGPlanet has been doing very well at keeping up with the whole two week spaced update; however, it seems that the update expected on June 4th for Albatross 18 and another game Rumble Fighter will be pushed for the week after. I’m assuming this is in preparation for the release of Ice Spa, which is expected this month as reported by Sweatdrop. It also could be because of the tournament as well. In all honesty, I’ll be happy if they change the Papel Rare. Did you know it’s been up for literally three months? Is there anyone who doesn’t have Crosswings? Though I will give them the benefit of the doubt since there’s only about three to five left to release.
Billboard winners were announced and I congratulate Fresca, Gy187 and Helison who should have their artwork and/or edited images in the game more then likely within the next update. Also, those Memorial Entries look very snazzy so far. Seems that a lot of contests have come our way lately, and I usually don’t cover them due to the fact they’re on the MySpace Insider Blog. I will bring you the announcement of the winners for the Memorial Contest as soon as its released though.
Also, for those who frequently visit Sweatdrop’s Zoints Profile or the OGPlanet forums then you probably heard about the Unofficial Speed Round Tournament. A video of the event can be found here. I actually made it into the room, but deciding on Arin and Brie probably wasn’t the best idea. Curse my fandom of Arin, it actually did me wrong for once.
Lastly, the podcast will be recorded on Saturday and we have registered IntoTheRough.com as an official website. I am currently (feverishly I might add) working on the layout since I will be away from my computer tomorrow. We have over fifty-one self recorded sounds and songs from Albatross 18, only two of those were taken from the new Japanese remixes currently featured in that region. So at the moment we’re working on intros and the likes, we have show notes, we have practiced not going uhhhhh. So we’re pretty ready and raring to go. Hopefully we won’t do too bad for our first podcast.

I’m sorry, but I couldn’t read anything you typed, Kana. I was busy staring at Arin in the cover picture you used.
xP
Kidding, and Arin fandom is never wrong!

Haha, nice Ice Spa is coming. :P Ooh, I will most sure get your podcast and check out the new site. ^^ Aw, if you used my 270 1w Arin/Pipin combo you may have been faster. Heh…;]

I’m pretty sure it’ll be Ice Spa as well, and I was convinced further when Chump said it’ll be a big update that they don’t want to mess up.
And yeah, I regret using my Arin with too much control as well, next time I’ll probably have my Kooh prepared with high power and low control, since I have a friend who plays with a Kooh like that.
Looking forward to the podcast, I’m confident you’ll handle it well.

I wasn’t keeping up to date on the tourney.
Though, technically Bobbo has the shortest animations, unless you’re using him with his gun.
As for the release of IceSpa, and the rumor the tourney will be held there I’ve been practicing up on KR (bad Kibsy!). I learned a few tricks of the trade, so I’m ready and rearing to go!

A video of the event can not be found “there” :)
I’m shivered with fever waiting for your podcasts xD

Ah-hah, seems the video link died out. Gonna have to bug Sweatdrop for it then since I don’t have the right to re-upload it.
I’m stressing! I’m at my brothers where I can do no web design. Must stay up all night to work on it when I get home. *Runs around and bumps into walls*
