Skon Kyskadi!  I’m not sure about you but I just love saying that.  If you’re on “The List”, then you know it’s an inside greeting amongst those who roll with the dice.  I wanted to post this up as a brief look at some of the things we’re working on and are soon to be unveiled.

And of course the unveiling of things might not be as point blank as you’d expect.  But then we are located in Viral City so it’d be an injustice wouldn’t it if there wasn’t some cool little mystery involved right?

Here are a few code names to some things that are on the horizon for FiftyOne Marketing.  Most of these things have 2010 releases scheduled if things go according to plan.  If you look in certain places that the dice have been rolled at, you’ll gather more clues as to how the year will play out.

On the horizon….

It’s almost time to attack!  But before that I wanted to give everyone a central location for identifying several other units that are set to invade.  The Invasion 2 has managed to get a wide variety of soldiers for the attack this time.  Those soldiers span several community websites across the internet led by several of Microsoft’s Xbox MVPs.  They each joined in to help increase the reach so to speak.

The Invasion 2 is a hot spot for people looking to play with a bunch of cool people who game the right way.  It’s time to turn the mics back on and do away with the mute button.  There’s nothing but fun waiting when you attack with the rest of us.

Below is a list of communities and those leading them into battle.  You can visit each of their websites to find out others who are participating and hosting for tomorrow’s invasion.  Don’t hesitate to send a friend request to each community leader you see below to get in on the attack with others.

There are also a list of people hosting Scavenge matched in Left 4 Dead 2 from other communities involved.  Get more details of The Invasion 2 here.

December 27, 2009
After a successful first attack last month, we now set our sights on occupying more of the territory known as Xbox LIVE. We’ve selected a new weapon to engage our target with.

Target: Xbox LIVE
Weapon of Choice: Left 4 Dead 2
Invasion: December 27, 7PM – 9PM CST (5PM – 7PM PST)
Attack details: Look for community hosts / Gamertags for rounds and round of Survival; play with other communities in other modes

“The only person who could ever miss with this gun would be the sucker with the bread to buy it.” – Peter, Dawn of the Dead (1978)

This has become an incredible way to find other soldiers to dig a foxhole with and an incredible way to experience online gaming with people who share a passion for playing the right way. With the success of the first attack, we’re well on our way to engage the target with a monthly attack. (more on that and the future of Invasions soon)
