Oh sorry, I have no knowledge on any deals or anything, I just meant the official release dates :< Sorry!

Feel free to approach me with the name "Dac"

[Dacvak]

This launch is fucking nuts. It's SO big, it's crazy. So far, we got a rooster hat, scrib paper tablet and pen, a scrib yoyo, a starite cupcake, and I'm sure there will be more.

I've been talking with Jeremiah, Edison, and Marius, and they are just mad chill people. 5th Cell is awesome, and this launch is phenomenal. Sucks for all of you who aren't here.

Spoiler

<3

I wish Feep was here. To my knowledge, he and I are the only two GAFers in the game. Writing Feep spawns a robot zombie, and writing Dac spawns a cyclops dude. =D

 

[Purkake4]

Best selling game ever confirmed?

Awesome lines, though.

 

[EatChildren]

Reading your post, Dacvak, sent a shrill of excitement down my spine. Is that sad?

 

[DarkKyo]

Lol that launch looks awesome.

 

[Jme]

writing Dac spawns a cyclops dude. =D

Haha awesome - just curious, what did you do that caused them to put you in? I must have missed that from the old thread.

Dudes face on the right :lol

 

[jrricky]

Gah! I'm like a few more mins away.

 

[Huy]

..check out the twitpics of the cupcakes..oh my word.

 

[Dacvak]

Haha awesome - just curious, what did you do that caused them to put you in? I must have missed that from the old thread.

Months before E3, I was getting really involved with Scribblenauts online. Basically WAY before any excitement. I PM'd Jackson and asked if I could be in. As he said today to the other GAFers, "He was the only one who PM'd me and asked, and I was like... Sure. *laughs*"

All things considered, I'm really lucky these guys are so cool.

Btw, everyone here from GAF says hi!

 

[jrricky]

I'm here finally. So where is everyone? They left?

 

[Dacvak]

Jr, we're still here.

More shots live from the event.

this launch is so fun. Jackson says to all of you "Why aren't you here? *laugh*"

 

[Revolutionary]

Best selling game ever confirmed?

Awesome lines, though.

It's New York City.

There's always a line.

EDIT: And I told you guys that 10:45 was too late. lol
Good thing you guys got there earlier.

 

[iamcool388]

I'm back at home... the cake cutting is gonna be at 1, so I asked Dacvak to take a picture of the cake being cut and post it. It should be here soon. Also... pic dump coming soon. :lol

P.S. For those of you who werent at the launch...

 

[Dacvak]

I took a huge video of the cake being cut. I'd upload it now, but my iPhone is dying. I'll post later.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

I went stealth-GAF. (Actually I wasn't sure if I was going until this morning. Walked by Pizza Pronto a little before 11 and no one was there.) But anyway pics!

Hundreds of people there. Easy.

Scribblenauts madness!

Ha--I suspected these were GAFfers, looks like I was right!

This is a Maxwell cake. Didn't stick around to see him get dismembered.

The guests of honor.


They handed out a bunch of Scribblenauts swag--buttons, Scribblenauts notepad and pencil (nice), Scribblenauts poster, awful-tasting Starite cookies and cupcakes. Very cool and I was quite surprised at the size of the crowd. Still, there seemed to be plenty of copies for everyone and they moved everyone quickly--I got there only a few minutes before 11 and had my copy within 20 minutes.

By the way, got a PM or two about getting signed copies of the game, unfortunately only one signed item per person, sorry.

 

[Crumpet Trumpet]

Woah, that launch looks crazy fun

New York is FAR AWAY FROM THE NETHERLANDS.

 

[GregLombardi]

Went, met Johan (spelling?), and bought wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much shit. Here are some pics!

This event was fucking awesome, props to the team there! I'm so happy I got a chicken hat, as that's what I really wanted!

There's some other cool stuff you can see in my pics that they were handing out, but yeah the maxwell cake was definitely the most awesome thing I saw there.

 

[iamcool388]

This cake is NOT a lie.

All the Scribblenauts swag!

Clockwise from top left, Scribblenauts YOYO, Rooster hat, writing pad, button and the game... all on top of an awesome Scribblenauts poster! The poster is signed by all the 5th Cellers... Marius, Jeremiah, Edison and Britney!

New York is FAR AWAY FROM THE NETHERLANDS.

No excuses, play like a champion. -- Wedding Crashers. :lol

 

[MNC]

Oh my God :lol The whole shenanigans around the game are amazing!

 

[MetatronM]

Man, the launch looks crazy fun. I actually ended up not getting to bed at all until around 9 am, and I was really strongly debating just skipping out on the sleep altogether.

Oh well, it's my loss.

I'll still be grabbing your game in a couple days, Jackson et al.

Congrats on what looks like a totally awesome event!

 

[Kaako]

Haha awesome pics man.
This game is freaking amazing btw. Cousin flew in from NY and I've been playing this shit the whole morning. So good.

 

[iamcool388]

Jeremiah and I posing with Maxwell!

Jeremiah said it took them only 14 months to make the game... from concept to completion! Incredible!

Spoiler

Standing next to the cake, he also said he couldnt wait to stick a knife into Maxwell and murder him. "I made you, I can kill you... I WILL kill you!!" :lol :lol :lol

EDIT: There are TWO BONUS pics... but I wanna post them on the new page... so yeah. Someone say something. :lol

 

[mrkgoo]

I've heard about this game. Any chance I could find it available today?

 

[Shiggy]

Would be great to see more pictures...iamcool388, do you've got more?
