Amazing work, I saw a link on this from Xbox in my email and I’m not very accustomed to clicking strange links but this looked somewhat interesting. I watched a few episodes and got some good laughs out of it and soon my sisters boyfriend both started watching.

Excellent work on the show, very creative, good acting and very comical. You and everyone on the show have some real talent you don’t see everyday and I look forward to seeing future episodes.

Felicia,
The naysayers aside, your decision to partner with Microsoft (and accept Sprint as your sponsor) was a VERY savvy decision – XBOX Live had your show featured on their splash screen which has resulted in a large increase in viewership…and your show truly deserved it (you’ve managed to capture on some of the awkwardness that initially made The Office so imminently watchable while highlighting the MMO subculture with honesty and good humor). I can’t stress enough how happy I am to see you getting the notoriety you so richly deserve for all your hard work.

Now – as far as trashy fantasy covers..here’s one I found on Amazon that still has me laughing: http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0345495934/ref=sib_dp_pt#reader-link

It’s an interesting hazy picture of some mysterious bare-chested guy (who should clearly be on he cover of a beach romance novel) holding a crown of thorns. Great stuff….as seedy as it is ambiguous.

All the best…and thank you for all your hard work – we really do appreciate it.

Totally late to the shindig, GOSH.

That being said, WELL DONE, Felicia Day and Friends! I’m SO thankful that people like you and Joss Whedon are totally shaking up the entertainment industry. And I am super excited to watch Season 2! (No, I haven’t yet… I’m saving it up for a Season 2 Marathon. Because I’m weird that way, okay?! No patience. Honestly. Like, none. At ALL. It’s a hardship.)

I appear to be alone in being pleased it’ll be on Live.

V. late to the party, but wanted to express how I’m feeling fan pride that you:

1. Took a stand for the right reasons and the right deal that keeps the creative reins in the hands of the right person.
2. Kept things open and democratic by making sure everyone could see The Guild free. (Nice combination of total individual control and total communal access to enjoyment!)
3. Got an awesome platform (or three) to reach more people who will learn how to be more selective media viewers and thereby open doors for other Day-like creators.
4. Taught Microsoft that it doesn’t have to own absolutely everything and, in your case, can’t.
5. Set such an awesome example for us other web video makers.

I tried to post this link on another thread, but it vanished into nothingness, so here it is again:
