Here comes the hard part: the thank-yous. I'm always afraid I'm going to leave someone out or forget to mention an action that made the event special. My apologies in advance if I do; it was such a wide-spread event with so many people involved that it's hard to remember all the details that added up to made it so great. Please post here if you think of someone or something I failed to mention.
First, thank you to Lord Chaos who agreed to do this way back in November when I first had the idea. I must confess that I wouldn’t have gone through with this without him; it just wouldn’t have felt like a real Uru event without him. His almost six hour set of Myst-Uru music was the best I’ve heard, yet. It included all the music from every Myst and Uru game, plus songs from Uru videos made by explorers – and was laid out in such a way as to provide the perfect background for the chat with intermittent tugs on the heart. I think his voice was what I’ve missed most this past year, so it was very nice to hear that again, as well. To top it all off, he stayed in the chatroom from beginning to end, keeping the chat lively and upbeat.
Thanks to DaytonaKit and BeachRm for encouraging me to go through with it at this time; to Kit for directing me to the new karaoke site where it could be discussed with the DJs who don’t frequent this forum; to all the DJs who helped me to understand the technical ends and outs.
To everyone who encouraged me along the way, especially DudeMom who went out of her way to promote the event.
To the D’niJs who broadcast: TheDoctor / Lord Chaos / BeachRm / Dichromus and the co-streamers who rebroadcast to allow for more listeners: Dichromus / Dagda / Donahoo. And, to Dagda for reading, recording and broadcasting vid’s Recap of the Restoration.
To all the in-world organizers: Dagda & Jeff Lewis in Second Life; Skydivers in Second Life; Taelos in There; Amarez & BrettM in Guild Wars; CrisGer, Sophia, Mara & Karkatahn in the MystOnline chatroom.
To those who didn’t even know they contributed: vid for writing the Recap of the Restoration which Dagda read; and everyone who created an Uru video which then made the song they used synonymous with Uru in our minds.
To everyone who shared pictures during the chat. I hope more will follow VixBlu’s example and post them here in this thread.
And last, but certainly not least, thank you to everyone who attended. You are the reason we did this and your enthusiasm in attending made it all worthwhile.
