ECA Updates...
September 13, 2007
A couple of housekeeping notes...We've updated the GamePolitics Forums to include a new informational section, "ECA Interface" within the ECA area.
Also, a pair of ECA staffers, Seth Stebbins and Thomas Valentino, will be patrolling the ECA forums to assist members, answer questions, etc. Welcome, Seth and Thomas!
Since the CNN/YouTube Republican Presidential Debate has been delayed untl Nov. 28th, we're going to devote that banner space in the sidebar to other stuff for now. But keep thinking about ideas for game-related video submissions for the candidates as you'll be reading more about this as we draw closer to the debate.
The pic at left with Hal Halpin, by the way, was taken last month at the PAX show by ECA member Jordan Roher and posted to his Flickr photo set from PAX.
Well done, Jordan! Going forward, we'd love to have gamers & ECA members send in their show pix.

JDKJ: AE: Thanks. That cured my head-scratching. They're actually making money the good, ol'-fashioned, American way: stealing it.

Andrew Eisen: JDKJ - Doesn't appear that it did refuse the ad revenue. "Stingray Sushi says that it already paid for the ad and that a refund is not an option."

JDKJ: What leaves me scratching my head is why any municipality or authority would be interested in refusing advertising revenues while crying that they're flat-ass broke, raising fares, and reducing services. Go figure.

Andrew Eisen: Agreed. If aiming guns in a mildly threatening manner and short skirts are not okay, fine. But you have to be consistent. I've seen too many underwear ads and action movie posters with characters in the same pose not to call BS on this decision.

Mad_Scientist: "violent" and "obscene"... because the character has guns and a short skirt? Guess they've been taking lessons in double standards from the Chicago Transit Authority.
