E-games Mini Domination @ the Mall of Asia - POSTPONED

Hello My Dear Audistas.........

I am very sorry to announce that our E-games Mini Domination @ Mall of Asia will be postponed to a later date. Due to unpredicted weather.

Guys, I feel sad also that the mall tour this Saturday won't push thru, I've been looking forward to the MOA event for weeks now. This event will be a very good follow up to the Mid Year EB that we had last July 19, 2007.

My Boy - Jang Na-Ra, Song of the Week (4th wk of July)


Sunday night I thought of updating my blog, and noticed that I have to change my song of the week. Well from the so romantic song Aloha by Cool, song of the week for the 3rd month of July, now to the cutesy My Boy by our also so cutesy Korean actress, singer Jang Na-Ra.

The next day, Monday, the 1st day of the week, usually the most hectic and the most katamad day of the week. I decided to take a break from the usual Excel, Word, Outlook etc.... work that i do, and went to see how my blog is doing. Well the blog is doing really well, for just a week I got 383 visitor counts already. Thank you to the Audition PH Community for the support.

Anyway, lets talk about one of my favorite Audition songs, My Boy by Jang Na-ra. I thought that her name was Nara Jang, till i made some researches that her surname is Jang and her 1st name is Na - Ra. Just like how Chinese people write their names, surnames go first. Moving on, the 26 year old Na-Ra is not just a singer but also an actress as well, talk about double threat. Na-Ra was born in Seoul, Korea and played in Les Misérables with her dad in her younger days, talent runs in the family.

Nara had a series of acting streaks, like in 2003 she stared in the Movie "Oh! Happy Day!" and been staring in several TV shows from 2001 to 2005. Na-Ra also released 5 solo albums, including the 2003 "The Third Story" album which contained the Audition hit song "My Boy". And not only that, Na-Ra's Cutie vocals had also been included in different compilation albums such as "Jang Nara and Friends, Lady Like and two
other Chinese albums, yes Chinese! Nara Doesn't just sing Korean but Chinese as well, "?? and Gong Fu".

Good looks, angelic voice, successful career, Jang Na-ra has her way of giving back the blessing she received such as doing charity work, sending powdered milk to North Korea, raising money for children with leukemia in China. She also had her "Jang Foundation" .

Audition PH lastest patch update

Audistas!!! We had a new patch just last July 19, 2007 - Thursday. It was also the day of our Mid Year Mini EB.

We know that it took some of you a long time to download the latest patch, but I'm very sure that it was all worth it. We had the latest Audition Dane Arena, the Audition Stage, also we had alot of New Avatar Items for both Male and Female characters, New Accessory Items, such as the Love Potion, Battle Party Reset and the Nick Name Change, New Game Mode: Boys VS Girls Mode, last and not the very least we had an Item Shop revamp.

So there are alot of new stuff to enhance your Audition Dancing Experience. I myself am very excited to try the new accessory items and dress my character with the new avatar items. Also the new look of the revamped item shop looks so refreshing.

Audition Mid Year Mini EB

Audistas!!! I was really amazed on the number of gamers who attended the event that we had last July 19, 2007 at the EGG (Extreme Gaming Ground) - Mall of Asia. Tho it was a weekday - Thursday to be exact, almost 150 Audistas came. The area that we had was not even enough for all the gamerz who came, also I would like to extend my thanks to some Ranatics and Jammers who came to visit.

To all who attended the Audition Mid Year Mini EB @ the EGG - Mall of Asia.... Thank you so so so so so so so so so much much much much in behalf of the E-games family.

I only had a week to prepare for the Event, I started coordinating July 13, 2007 - Friday, our events team were all out of the office till the Tuesday of the following week. So I really had to work on my own, surveying for the venue, coming up with the program, raffle, promo and tournament that "you" Audistas will enjoy.

I was very thankful to Miss Edz Villafuerte the president of the Pussyfierz Club and Mr. Firelli Curioso the President of the Exoduz Club, for they are the ones who helped me to come up with the best venue and program for the event. they also took the initiative to invite all their members and other clubs as well....... So to Miss Edz and Mr. Firelli, thank you so much, without your help, the Mini EB would not have been as successful as we known it to be.

Till Tuesday, our events team were back in the office from other events that they had the week before. So i got really alot of help from them, from all the manpower, advertising collaterals, area mapping, venue reservations etc... And it also so happen that we had T3 visitors coming to visit, it was the perfect timing that we are coming up with an EB Event. We can have the chance to show them the Audition Filipino Community.

From the news of the coming visit, our PR agency thought of having a press conference with T3 Korea and E-games Philippines. It was good idea on our side, but the venue that they choose for the press conference was the same venue on the Mini EB Event. The decision added tension on me and the events team, the press will be in the venue, everything needed to be press perfect.

The big day came, Thursday morning, I can't pray hard enough that we hope to fill the place, that it wont be very embarrassing to our visitors and the press. So @ 3pm our team already started preparing, dressing up the whole place, setting the press room, registration table, posters, tarps, the gaming arena till 5:30 PM.

Everything was all set, except for the most important aspect of the event, not all the PCs had been path with the latest updated Audition path that T3 brought with them. The PCs were not ready till 6:30 PM and really delayed the event, it was a big patch containing alot of updates, when the Audistas saw from the big screen lighted the event with their cheers of excitement and officially started the event.

As part of our program we had an In Game Tournament, the Night 4 Direction (8) Challenge the Winner. This is a new format that we did for the tournament, and to our surprise, Team #3 had been sitting in their PCs since their turn till an hour and beating off 13 other teams they were so tired but they emerged as the winners and took home each the limited Imation USB 256MB Baller Band and a 30 day costum set of their choice.

Also we gave aways alot of x2 EXP and DEN cards, Audition Merchandise : Audition T-Shirt, Audition Jacket, Audition Goodie bags and alot of DEN.

To all the winners: "Congratulations and Keep It UP!!!"

Introduction - Who is GM Lowe?

Good day Audistas,

Before we start I would like to introduce myself. Who is GMLowe? You've known GMLowe ingame to always had conducted surveys, and asked gazillions of question from you Audistas, but never really play and dance with you guys, thats what I do, as part of the GM team I'm more into the Community side than the Gaming side. But of course I love to play Audition Dance Battle, and had been playing ever since. Above all I would like to be in service of the Audition Community with my best efforts.

I will be in charge of the E-games Audition Community as Community Manager from today onwards. Have you guys notice that all my post in the E-games forums are all about our EBs and other Events, I am in charge of inviting you guys to our events, coordinate and organize the program, sometimes even host the program, and make sure that you guys enjoy the event.

Aside form Events, I need to make sure that I am updated with what ever you guys are up to. what game modes you enjoy playing the most, that songs you love to play to, who the top players are, keep in touch with club leaders, active players and your concerns regarding the game (actually we have the E-games Customer Service for that, but i need to be updated also), etc...

I will also be heading our Audition GMs with regards to community matters, also I'll do my best to keep in touch with your club leaders, to know what each club is up to.

Basically I'm here to make the Audition Community the biggest, happiest, coolest, hippest, most updated, most active = BEST community in the whole of the E-games community. So with that vision in mind, I will be needing each and every gamer's help, your out most cooperation will greatly be appreciated, and on our side, E-games will do its best to deliver to you the most awsome gaming experience we can.
