I'll give the song choice some thought - there's one song I was thinking of making a demo video for, but maybe you can sue it her einstead.

ooo tricky question, hmm will need some thoguht to this 
@ExtraGonk
I think I will pick: Save Me - Remy Zero. It's from the smallville TV series so hero related and seems to fit: I was hoping someone would come and save me at about 4am...

And then the brave Generalissimo 2 stepped forward and heroicly said "Me too tired - me go bed now" 
I don't have a well developed taste in music (I only listen to about 5 bands in total) so anything by my favourite band Barenaked Ladies would be nice (Who Needs Sleep might be an apt one 
) or maybe Forca by Nelly Furtado - that's a nice song too. If that stuff doesn't fit in with the video than you can put anything you want in instead - I'm not fussy

For the faceplanting, the debt, the 19 solid hours of TF-ing, my musical pick is "Baby I don't care", by the one and only Transvision Vamp

[/ QUOTE ] i used "ZD Soft Game Recorder" bit of shareware from download.com, only cos fraps and gamecam wont work but these are another 2 that will do it.
And i have some bad news - the "Ruladak" map (the last one from the 2nd TF) will not load no matter what i try, and without it, there isnt really a video [img]/uk/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
If anyone wants to have a go at getting it to avi - send us a pm and i'll send it to ya (it'll be a link and not sent by email [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img])

Awesome video - and great choice of music, especially for the last song
Just wish you'd recorded that mission against the Thorns where there was that huge battle that went on for ages - best PvE fight I've ever had
Also, I never realized I persecuted the Mages so much
And for the next 2xp weekend, I suggest a Freedom Phalanx TF marathon - all 6 in one day

Really excellent video - well worth the wait Brought back lots of great memories of my longest and most enjoyable CoH session ever Great job DBeaver!

We spent 19 hours on those 3, so if we put the same time in, that'd require each of the 6 Freedom Phalanx TFs to be done in about 3 hours each - easily doable

Nice video
What an explosion of colour... and that's just Boston Malware Brought back memories of just how cool it was doing those TFS
Can't wait to do the Freedom Phalanx marathon now
that was totally ace, top video and top days play...
where do i sign up for the FP-TFS Marathon
@ExtraGonk
I'm sure a FP TF marathon is possible - a couple of them can be done in under 3 hours too, so that leaves extra time for the longer ones - 18 hours or less for the full set

Iv been working on the video for the Shadow Shard marathon for about a week now, all was going will until i needed to convert the 2nd TF's final mish from .cohdemo to .avi, dam think keeps crashing on the load screen
Oh well, Small set back 
The video appart from the one that wont convert is basicly finished, just need to put the last fue together and then wait a good fue days for it to go to .wmv :P
BUT advatising the video isnt what ths post is about, although it helps hehe - What i really want, is for the people who took part to pick 1 song they want in the video and i'll try and fit it in there
I got a bit bored aswell, iv made a small website to host the video because it wont fit on youtube in 1 big video, although there is a small promo video on there hehe - the address is http://thissupergroup.syphernet.com/tfs its nout special, just something for the video, who was there (still need to add the people who helped us start or was the 8th person in the team, post here and i'll add you to the list) and a small explnation
erm... thats all i can think of hehe - enjoy
