Is SEGA going to ever realize that each Shenmue fan would be willing to squirt at least 500 quid to get this bloody game? They should launch a special kickstarter to gauge interest. How do I create a twitter so I can harass these fuckers with ya?

You say "quid" in America, or are you a anglophile? If the latter is true then good man Joe, very good man. It's pretty easy joe, just go on to twitter there should be a button to join up or something. Can't believe you are only getting onto this now! Make you sure you do it! LGS, if you are reading this, am I right in assuming you're taking a break from the Bojo? I sent you a PM asking you not to go

Sweaty, if you read this, Shensun has asked me to pass this message on to you, which I said I would do but I don't have FB anymore. Basically he worries that concerned parties might not realise how large the tweetathon is now and wonders if we should somehow try and direct every single tweet towards phil spencer and that Gio guy. I don't really think it's all that necessary myself mind you.
Anyway, the thunderclap seems to be doing well this month isn't it? Possibly the highest since Dec, or was it Jan, I can't remember now?

Cheers mue, he also managed to email me from the Dojo so I've discussed it with him. Basically I feel it would overcomplicate the Tweetathon to ask all participants to include multiple hashtags and usernames in their tweets, but hardcores could do more to highlight for Corsi and Spencer the campaign's size and impact, because they probably do only see a portion of it. How come you don't have Facebook anymore? And yeah, tomorrow's Thunderclap will be the biggest of the year so far. So much for fans giving up hope after GDC, eh? Should be a good day, though no doubt impossible to keep up with.

Ah cool, and yeah I agree with you. As for Facebook, I don't know really, I just got a sudden urge to get myself off of it. It was useful for talking with some people like yourself of course, so I might return at some point, I'm not sure yet. Anyway it's good to see the Thunderclap make it past 600 supporters tonight.

Why do people delete their Facebook account instead of just... not using it? Johnny does it every couple of months too.

For some people I guess it might be an addiction type thing. They probably can't trust themselves to have facebook and not use it. Actually, now that I think about it, that doesn't entirely make sense as all you have to do to reactivate it is simply log back in haha, so it must be more of a symbolic thing. For me though,it's not about not wanting to use it, it's about not wanting to be on it. I just don't even want my name on it right now. It's hard to say why exactly.

Yes!! Back in the place it all started. Remember Johnny? I wonder when that legend will pop up to bask in this glory with us.
I like that the hashtag was incorporated into the url. That was a nice nod.
How do you feel right now, James? I swear, you deserve one of those $10,000 dollar Yu Suzuki dinner perks, for all your relentless efforts. I honestly don't think it would have happened if it weren't for you.

haha, Tim, are you that chap that used to very occasionally make amazing posts here? Good to see ya.
Sweaty, have you seen the Shenmue 3 website, they have snazzy links to all the community sites, including your baby! It may not have been the most buzzing, but people do recognize all you've done with it.
Shenmue UK has flown under the radar though (or deliberately left out) ahahaha, sorry Pat old boy. But little do they know, this place was vital. man.

haha yes that's me, you can rest assured that I'll be definitely posting more on here now. I always said I'd get active again if Shenmue 3 was announced. Hopefully other people start coming back as well now and the community gets going again!

Great! Some of your posts on Shenmue were straight classics! I don't know if this community will ever get doing again, but it'd be nice if it did! Where is Pat!?

Shenmue UK actually got a shoutout on the Kickstarter page in one of the updates for today. Wild. Thought I'd come say hello with a side of 'FUCKING HELL IT'S HAPPENING'.

Glad the news finally reached you, Pat! I did wonder.
I've emailed Johnny, as it seems strange that he hasn't resurfaced by now. Especially after the portrait he drew of one of the PlayStation execs to help try and get their attention. I know he frequently cuts himself off from the Internet to retreat into his studies, but can the news really have passed him by for this long?

I stopped following Shenmue news as much because I had kinda given up lol so it was even more of a 'treat' for me to see the news and I felt bad that I had kinda given up hope lol im feeling really pumped for Shenmue again now I cant wait! I opted for the 80$ Pledge
