This reminds me of the time a handful of people protested in front of the Paramount Pictures gate for bringing back Sulu from the old Star Trek so he could have the leading role in a new series. The pictures were quite unsettling...

I can only imagine

HieroHero · 03-08-2004, 04:27 PM

yeah we are gonna contact the local news station to get them down there 2 cover it... i dont care how nerdy it looks..if it gets lucasarts attention its worth it

Draco2.5 · 03-08-2004, 05:30 PM

How do you know anybody will even show up to protest?

HieroHero · 03-08-2004, 05:50 PM

we've already got people going..how many join in who knows...

Krash Kow · 03-08-2004, 07:16 PM

Howdy all! I'm the guy currently organizing the picketing of Lucasarts. The protest will likely take place either March 19th or 22nd (I've finals up until then), but I'm a bit flexible. If you are at all interested, or know someone who is, please e-mail me at [email protected].

You may want to get an organized group together so you actually know the numbers you are expecting. Having an unorganized protest can do more harm than good.

hey i've got an idea, hire some tough punks. No one messes with tough punks.

Moron Lite · 03-08-2004, 11:12 PM

Hmm. I may join the protest. Could be fun.

Weelll, a meeting with the police should be expected, and a meeting with those guys is never funny. NEVER I TELL YA (Not even in a harmless nerd protest)

Moron Lite · 03-09-2004, 04:25 AM

Even when it's the Freelance Police?

Somebody should write mr. Lucas himself and inform him about Sam & Max cancelation and in just how bad shape his LEC is. I recall reading on LEC homepage about him asking about S&M missing from their "heroes of next generation" video.

Zanthia · 03-09-2004, 05:47 AM

I do hope all those things will make them change their minds. Did it work before?

Magatsu · 03-09-2004, 09:05 AM

I think this will lead to WW3

I'm still not sure why you decided to mask the first paragraph with a banner, as opposed to placing it above the text. There's quite a few typos and misspelled words too.

I don't mean to be critical of your design. I'm just worried that others might not be as forgiving as we are, and might not take the page seriously after seeing something like that.

Who cares. Its for the gamers man...FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD, IT'S FOR THE GAMERS!!

RaMa · 03-10-2004, 04:27 PM

Actually, it's for game developers.

HieroHero · 03-10-2004, 04:45 PM

site redesign coming in 3 days... ive had over 4, 000 people visit in the last 24 hours.. and that is actual unique visitors not hits

Here is an excerpt of a letter I sent to the webmaster of savesamandmax.com

I have an idea, but if it's used at all, perhaps it should be done as "Phase 2" if Phase one (petitions to get Lucasarts to reverse their decision, picket protests, etc.) fails.

We should make a petition to encourage Lucasarts to sell the work they have done with "Sam and Max" sequel to another company willing to finish and publish it. It is a longshot proposition, but it seems the momentum of this movement is being lost. Everybody who is a fan of Sam and Max has signed the petition, and contacted Lucasarts. You will get more signatures every day, but the momentum is being lost.

I realized that now Lucasarts is catering to their console customers; millions of people everywhere who not only have never heard of Sam and Max, but do not use the internet for anything besides homework research.

If they wont release "Sam and Max", the fan base has spoken, and LEC wont budge, it seems we would only have one choice left, and that is to encourage LEC to pass down the rights.
