Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:12:55-05:00
Have any radio shows brought up the game on their radio shows yet?
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:13:09-05:00
That would help a lot!
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-14T03:13:51-05:00
@Lauren...there's been a number who have approached radio stations
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-14T03:14:47-05:00
@Lauren...If you have any connections to any radio shows...go for it! :)

Has Ellen brought it up on her show yet?
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-14T03:17:36-05:00
@LZ...and we also keep count ;)
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-14T03:17:43-05:00
According to the data, the radio show I listen to (and have been on) doesn't have any listeners at all. Not a single one.
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:18:02-05:00

@Kevin that sucks
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-14T03:18:46-05:00
I was the first to post a group of ten in cat ears. My camera is shit, so they didn't use it. I also went and got a goat selfie when we were struggling to get qualified entries! LZ, made a magical enchilada that I couldn't believe they didn't use.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-14T03:19:00-05:00
No, and she's probably not going to. I imagine she's not very happy with EK for the email-destroying barrage she received
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:19:24-05:00
True
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-14T03:19:43-05:00
Lauren, the data is off. It's actually decently popular.

Hello Kitten Komanders....it's a pleasure to meet you all......you may call me the "Kattastic Kattastrophie".....I have given the order for the final round fight. We shall have meower special prize. Let all bow before us!!!!!!
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-14T03:20:01-05:00
Lauren, Ellen was the subject of what was essentially a DDOS attack because she was named as a celebrity achievement. I don't think she's going to want to help.
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:20:09-05:00
I hope that someone famous brings up the game
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-14T03:20:16-05:00
Catness, I think they already had 25 by the time they received it
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-14T03:21:06-05:00
@Lauren...various celebrities. The EK team actually had to pull the twitter challenges as it shut down Ellen, GRR Martin and Wil Wheaton's emails
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-14T03:21:18-05:00
LZ, they obviously did a Best Of collection and demonstrated questionable judgment and taste. :-P
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-14T03:21:50-05:00
Indeed ;-)
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:21:58-05:00
Yeah I heard about that
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-14T03:22:20-05:00
I'm actually surprised Wil didn't want to play
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:22:27-05:00
Maybe a famous nerd and gamer will bring it up or something
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-14T03:22:51-05:00
Lauren, Matthew Inman is famous and the whole team seems genius in their strategies here. The game has been marvelously successful. Most backed of all projects and that was 55k backers ago. Why the concern?
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:23:18-05:00
about 9,000 more likes till we reach the facebook likes achievement
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-14T03:23:55-05:00
Yep. I think we'll get it
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:23:55-05:00
just wanting that final achievement
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-14T03:24:02-05:00
LZ, maybe he felt pressured and manipulated?
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-14T03:24:33-05:00
Quite possibly
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-14T03:25:00-05:00
Lauren, I think we are on track. I suspect we will end up with 31 achievements unlocked. But if you have an in with someone, by all means follow up on that. :-)
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-14T03:25:32-05:00
9,024 to go!
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:26:14-05:00
we need 1,800 likes a day in order get the achievement
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-14T03:26:39-05:00
LZ, I wouldn't be likely to cooperate if I felt that way. The impact was really high on all three of them, so possibly they think the challenge was ill-conceived and inconsiderate.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-14T03:27:07-05:00
I think we've been getting 2-3k per day
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-14T03:27:43-05:00
Lauren, that is the math. We got much more than that today, so we'll see how it goes.
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-14T03:27:59-05:00
yep
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-14T03:30:20-05:00
Once we get the ears, we can encourage anyone who was in it to tag all the people they know who were in it. Bring a lot of additional visibility to it to being in more money and more backers, even though the goals will have been accomplished.

Good!
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-14T03:37:10-05:00
Next step, if you want to officially join the corps, is to decide whether you're a hero, neutral, or a villain. Think of a short bio, and any special powers you might have, and if you want a minion, think of a name and description. Then email all that to cheetahbutt@kittencorps.com

Mine has moved on to Nightwish. I stream Pandora at work. I have quite the variety of music on my station, most of it is various types of rock. Today I have heard Josh Groban, Billy Joel, Sarah Brightman, Marilyn Manson, Avenged Sevenfold, KoRn, Slipknot, and everything inbetween. All on one station

This one is called Avenged Sevenfold Radio because A7X was the first station seed and I never bothered to rename it

90,956. The speed on this thing...
I just listened through an entire album trying to find a song I heard live by Each and All. The one I liked? Second to the last song.
A lot of people are sleeping ;)

I've displaced Prof F in 4th place for top commenters. A dubious achievement, really, but I'll take it.
