I Just Don't Get It....

I've heard the proposal ideas are "outside the box" in a tenor of appreciation.

I've have received the contact information for Angelina Jolie.

Informed my contact at NCSoft of this too, and they seemed to want to discuss it.

See I have had the pleasure of meeting over the phone an actor who has at least 3 blockbusters of 19 movies to his credit, who is a CEO and knows Hollywood inside and out. He was referred to me by a personal friend of over 10 years and has received much thanks for helping us get the contact information to reach Angelina Jolie.

This actor called me back, I did not have to pester him with calls, he made himself available to us. I did not watch the clock during the conversation but my ear hurt from the telephone, and it seemed we were on the phone for about 45 minutes, maybe up to an hour and a half, since it went from late afternoon to dark outside.

He offered to be available in any way we need, he even offered to be our agent of this proposal to Angelina Jolie and her people.

His view, the same one I've been laying out there regarding gaming doing much better in sales revenues than the movie industry, is that gaming is the future of entertainment, and a merging of these two aspects of entertainment would benefit both. Understand this is without even mentioning the charity aspect of this.

Of course I cannot speak to Mrs. Jolie/Pitt, because we do not own the game. Thus why I told NCSoft I have the contacts, and that we need to discuss this, to which they replied wanting to call me on the phone, and then....nothing.

Apparently the idea that something might succeed, that someone may have the celebrity contact that NCSoft could not get (or so I was told by my contact at NCSoft) and reached someone in Hollywood who could help us achieve saving the game while accomplishing our PR and marketing goals for the benefit of NCSoft as well, scares the hell out of them because Tabula Rasa won't die. That is the impression I get. That someone up top of NCSoft wants this game to die, period. They might sell it sure, but who is going to buy a game named in a lawsuit (TR is named in the Worlds.com lawsuit against NCSoft.)?

If anyone who is interested in saving Tabula Rasa has an ear in NCSoft that I can discuss this with, someone that can get this before a decision maker right away that would be a big help. Then NCSoft can higher this actor as their agent, as our agent together in this joint venture to save Tabula Rasa, which will result in NCSoft's lawyers going the meeting with this agent to meet with Angelina Jolie's people.

I haven't given up, I have a potential buyer in the wings, but again, lawsuit pending, they don't need that hassle. NCSoft would have to genuinely give this away with no strings attached, and, the buyer should be able to get the previous player data as well.

Of course NCSoft's history with Auto Assault shows otherwise, and yet they were ready to send an NDA to someone on the notion they are an investor who would buy the game, again "confusion" the message from NCSoft.


Discouraged but not detoured from the mission,
