Unconquered gets First Blood Against Nothing Gaming, Wrath joins the fray!
Submitted by Brehon on Wed, 12/14/2011 - 20:41
Well folks if you have been paying attention to the banter between the members of Scum & Villainy, you know we have been talking about PVP and who is going to own who. Lots of bravado, lots of shit talking and lots of building up for what will continue to be a massive event between the Scum (Empire side) & Villainy (Republic side). But the tale of first blood has been set, at least between Nothing Gaming and Unconquered (Galactic Underground).
Who? What? Where? Hold on, its coming, lets us take a few moments and savor this. Just today, day number two in early access, a single member of Unconquered, Sqream (aka Timmeh) laid down the thundah! In a match of Voidstar Quiche from Nothing Gaming ran past ole Sqream and from there the first death between our groups occurred. In a blaze of Trooper glory, Sqream said screw healing and made sure he unloaded everything on the lovely Quiche... VIOLA BANG BOOM... between Unconquered and Nothing Gaming, Unconquered tallies the first kill. Dahaka was good enough to return to favor on Sqream (who eventually did get a bit of retribution on Dahaka) and indeed the Empire destroyed the match and sent the Republic home with a devastating loss (seriously it wasn't even close). But first blood belongs to Sqream and Unconquered.
Let loose the dogs of war, it has begun. Game on Scum... Game on.
In other news, Wrath of Tormonger has successfully moved to Vulgar Highway so the final piece of Scum and Villainy has arrived. War is here and the battle has only just begun.

Let the Holiday Season begin!!!
Submitted by Brennan on Tue, 11/29/2011 - 14:59
As we are approaching December Bootleg is looking at Holiday ideas as well as some major steps to improve the service that we are providing to the Community. While a lot of us have been stricken with the Plauge we are soldering on to get you the entertainment you want.
I want to thank our loyal fan base and those who are just joining our community. If any of you have an idea or want to see something provided from the Bootleg Crew please let us know so we can see about providing it.
This month with the NDA lifted we have been able to provide you with some live streamed work and with some new shows. As I said there are some plans in the works to bring you a better service and as we hammer out details we will let you all know.

Get better Dimbo & Timmeh streams a flashpoint
Submitted by Brehon on Sun, 11/20/2011 - 11:32
First and foremost our well wishes and desires for Dimbo to get better are filling the waves, air and all that good stuff. Yesterday during Pancakes and Blue Milk, we got word that Dimbo was heading off to the hospital to potentially have his gal bladder taken out. Last I heard he was at home resting waiting for his meds as he moves to recovery. We love our very own Dimbo the Trooper and wish nothing but the best for him. So get well soon and Godspeed on your recovery my friend o/
Second keep your eyes on twitter today, as we mentioned yesterday on GU, Timmeh will be doing a live stream of our crew running an instance so people can get a feel for it. Sure you have seen it everywhere else, but hell its fun and we enjoy it. So stay tuned and we will keep you informed.

Stephen Reid aka Rockjaw on the Galactic Underground and Bootleg Radio
Submitted by Brehon on Fri, 11/11/2011 - 16:04
The other night Brennan and I (Brehon) were able to sit down and record an interview and chat with none other than Stephen Reid aka Rockjaw of BioWare. Although we can't give you the interview live, we got word today the recording is approved. With this news, tune in this Saturday for the Galactic Underground (show starts at 6:00pm CST) and we will play the 34 minute interview as part of the show.
It was great to sit down and talk with him and get his views on the community and what have you. While we all stuck around and talked after the interview, I was able to walk away from this humbled, happy and with a tremendous amount of faith in the BioWare community team. What I learned about Rockjaw and BioWares team in general just put me at ease on so many levels.
Next mission... tackle David Bass and get him on interview!!! :)
Special thanks to Mr. Reid, Mr. Bass and BioWare for allowing this interview (1 take, no recuts or similar so it was almost like live!) and the approval to play it on air. As I have said over and over again... thank you a million times over.
~Brehon
