There comes a point in everyone's life when something happens that just really really sucks. You can't help but feel sorry for yourself. This most often comes when you completely expect something and then find out it is not the case. This event has happened to us - but it is hopefully only a temporary setback. Originally the Furious Angels were slated to be highlighted in the first MxO Fanzine slated as a Collector's Edition. I was informed tonight, however, that our feature had been cut due to size constraints. The photos and text has been preserved, and I have been promised that something will be done to make it up. Here's what was said:
tbone@thematrixonline.com: I'm looking forward to the fanzine. I've had some problems with preorder, but I called around and they are overnight shipping it to my Gamestop. I should have it registered on Monday.
walrus@thematrixonline.com: Oh, man. I've got to talk to you about that...
walrus@thematrixonline.com: I just found out that they cut the FA piece out of the mag because of space. =(
walrus@thematrixonline.com: We have the text and images, though, so we'll find a way to make it up to you. Sorry about that.
tbone@thematrixonline.com: Doh!
tbone@thematrixonline.com: Ouch, that sucks
walrus@thematrixonline.com: yeah, i was ticked when i saw the proof
tbone@thematrixonline.com: Bummer. Well, I guess that's business
walrus@thematrixonline.com: meh. like i said though, we still have that piece, so we'll make sure you guys get some props. we want the factions to realize how critical they are to the community--especially ones as active as FA
tbone@thematrixonline.com: Thanks. Well just keep me updated, I guess. If there's anything else I can do, just let me know.
walrus@thematrixonline.com: you can bet on that <g>
tbone@thematrixonline.com: Ok, well I've got to go watch a showcase (I'm studying to be an actor). Thanks for letting me know now so I didn't expect anything when I get the mag. Talk to ya later!
walrus@thematrixonline.com: take care, tbone
tbone@thematrixonline.com: Peace out

*has heart attack* well that sux. so much for that idea, i hope they give us a year free of mxo...or a t-shirt...and lithium maybe ya can get a resize on yours, since you bitch bout it being XL :P
-
As long as we are the first faction to be previewed... I'll be happy. (if its any one like 3kings or the Collective, I'm storming WB.)
-
Damn. That's a bit of a let down. Would've been pretty sweet to get that kind of recognition. Well hopefully they manage to run the piece at some point.
-
Yeah the first magazine would have been awesome!
Never mind, we must still show the world we are better than they are ;)
-
That's a bummer.
It might turn out to be a good thing though.
When Walrus asked Tbone for some more information about the clan, he wasn't sure this new information would make it in time into the fanzine. So what I'm saying is that the FA layout might be better now that they won't have to rush it to be in the first issue.

Well let's just say this gives us time to get the tings that Tbone wanted started going. The new riddle, a community event, etc. That way when our time in the spotlight comes, and it will come people, we will be standing tall...
