Under ConstructionWow, how fast things have come together! Monday the decision was made to let the cat out of the bag (so to speak) about Mig Squared which has been around for over a year now.

Everyone has devoted all their energies these last few days to the launch of the website. (Thank you to my wonderful, devoted team!!). We are all slap happy from no sleep but at the same time we are all so energized and hyped for our unveiling of Mig Squared at the IGDA picnic on 7/12/08 (see next story).

Please let us know what you think about our website and if you have any suggestions or questions please feel free to contact us.

…at Richard Garriott’s private lakeside property!

Food, drinks, and desert will be happily provided by Salt Lick BBQ, Opal Divine’s & Amy’s Ice Cream.

Events include: live music, contests, bonfire, video games & laser tag (courtesy of Games2U) fire spinning, moonwalks, and activities for all ages!
