Spike TV Video Game Awards
« on: December 06, 2013, 06:02:31 am »
Just a gentle reminder that on Dec 7th there's supposed to be a 5 min clip covering some footage from the KO3, mostly featuring Hank and Vincent.

I don't have cable so I won't be able to watch it live -- hopefully someone will nab it and upload it somewhere.

I unfortunately won't be able to watch it.  Would it be possible to have it uploaded to Youtube to watch later?

Why? So some yuppie punks with their scholarships can just sit back and steal all of your fame?

You're right Ethan, those Ivy League bastards took my fame along with my 10k which is champagne money to them.  That money would have changed my life forever.  I deserve that money so I will troll the forums until the check arrives.

This documentary was shot by the crew from Vice Magazine/Media.  They told me there will be 2 versions of the documentary-- a shorter 5 minute version and a longer 15-30 minute version.  The shorter version will focus on the rivalry between Vince and me.  The longer version will give a broader picture of the Kong Off.  I believe they got interviews with everyone in the top 12 as well as with many other players/organizers.

The one that will be streamed live tonight during VGX will be the shorter version. 

EDIT: link to stream: http://www.spike.com/shows/video-game-awards

(It will also be streamed on Xbox One, Xbox 360®, PlayStation®3 (PS3â„¢), Twitch, iOS and Android devices, and available globally on VGXLIVE.com, Hulu, Yahoo Screen, the Yahoo Screen app and Viacom properties Spike.com, ComedyCentral.com MTV.com, MTV2.com, BET.com and GameTrailers.com.) 

VGX is 3 hours I believe.  I'm not sure when during those 3 hours it will be.  Ironically Vince and I are both working today and we will both likely miss it if they run it early.  VGX will also be broadcasted on cable TV (Spike TV) as "VGX Replay" on Dec 9 at midnight (the midnight between Mon/Tue Dec 9/Dec 10) EST.  The broadcast will be narrowed down to only 1 hour, so I'm not sure if we'll make the cut.

I'm not sure where the longer version will appear, but they have a youtube channel and website:

Silly side question:  If someone says Dec 9 at midnight, do they mean the midnight between Dec 8/9 or between Dec 9/10.

I can't say.  They told me not to tell anyone because then Vincent would get upset.

They didn't interview me. Toward the end of the event I asked if they wanted to interview me and they said, "No, noob...you don't count...you're 13'th!". Kappa.

Looking forward to watching the doc, thanks for the info!

Perhaps you have your parental controls set to block all "Lemay" content.

An advisable choice, I might add.   ;)

Actually, it's not showing up on my listings grid either.  However, I did receive an email with the following Twitch URL:

One of the great things about the Kong Off is that I (evidently) managed to avoid virtually all cameras, both video and still. Goal = successful! ;D

I am certainly looking forward to watching this though...

Just aired, about 1hr 20mins into the 3 hour live coverage.

I was able to snag two videos, one on my PC and one on my Macbook.  It was weird because on my PC, the video is nice and smooth, but no audio was recorded.  On my Macbook, the video is really choppy, but I got the audio.

If someone better at editing video than me wants the files (one .avi and one .mov), so we can add the audio from one to the good playback, and put it on youtube, let me know, I'll be happy to send them to you.

Looked pretty cool but they spelled George Leutz's name wrong!  Sinners!
