Make sure you watch Minoxen's Mech Enhancement Kit video first! Then enjoy:

Nice job! Funniest part for me was hearing the fighting in the background because I know whats going on there. Team marik coming to kill us after our first failed attempt to film this .

LOL! Yeah, I was going to go back and record some clean ambient noise, but it was just too funny having been there and knowing that we were under assault as we were filming.

Hah, good work Hennessey. I was expecting the baby to be that stalker just off camera and thinking, damn thats one ugly kid and when is the "I don't think I'm the father" joke coming =) Got a good laugh from it! Also, great work getting it shot without a 24 man crew. Trust me I can understand how hard a 4man shot can be.

LOL! Thank you! I had originally intended to do that not your baby-daddy bit, but wasn't sure how to end it appropriately.

I was going to have the dad getting all upset and saying something to the effect of 'You *****!', and then mom would shoot him, and baby would start crying. Punch-line would have been mom saying 'Stop crying, he wasn't even your father!'

I thought it was funny, but didn't want to offend anyone, and the whole sitcom feeling seemed more family friendly. The MerckWerrier series that we have lined up is decidedly NOT going to be family friendly, so I wanted something at least that let people see I wasn't all about 'your mom', and poop jokes...

That being said, your video was so well done that I couldn't let you get away with it (I even put that in my PM to people I was trying to get to help me). Just wish I had your editing skills. The 'law-suit' section I had to make by creating 23 slides in PowerPoint, and stringing them together, editing the length on each to match the voice. It was amateur, but it worked, lol!

I actually managed to get 12 people rounded up through three different TeamSpeak servers. We had the three mechs puppeteering, and three 'camera-mechs'. LOL, the rest had to go hold off the other team for as long as they could while we filmed! It's a very good way to get those multiple camera angles, and not have to reset the scene and do it piece-meal.

I hope in the future you, Koniving and I can all get together and share some drop time, and maybe do some camera-work for each other. I know it will make all of our skits much easier to accomplish (especially if we can get a whole 24 together until the day private matches are released).

Please respond to my PM that I sent a while ago, and send a gmail account if you have one. I'd love for you to see what we had planned for scripts, and who knows, maybe you'll want to be a part of it.
