If you didn't get enough on this Thanksgiving, how about nearly three hours of Uncharted Territory?! We talk a lot of news and notes in the real-life wrestling and entertainment world, then an in-depth discussion of nGo Convention Classics, Greatest Hits, and the 1998-2000 nGo Trilogy! Hear the backstory on some of the characters and memories of using them in our own feds. (Thanks to Kevin [@kevinb] for the show idea!) And Pete Beck ( DK II) wraps up the show with an audio comment on coffee and egg nog! For those promoters who haven't seen the nGo sets before, check out this thread under the It's Up to You, Promoter! forum. Find out what the videos below have to do with this episode. And find out in Episode 58 about signing "Dirty" Dutch Mantell! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! Uncharted Territory: Episode 57 |

FANTASTIC episode!!! It had me laughing out loud several times, not to mention I got my name dropped THREE times this episode!!! Cory, PULLOS remains my favorite bootleg ever created, period. I can't tell you how many hours of fun Matthew and I had with him, and the HUGE POP that erupted at my kitchen table when the Peckmission was rolled - EVERY time! He wasn't covered, because he wasn't in your sets, but Randy Bugdale drew DEATH KNIGHT II for DK II Beck and put the NGO logo on the forehead of his mask. Pete said wait a minute.... He's NOT in the NGO! So, Randy colored it in and made it the crown we all know now. He had too color it in, because most don't know Randy drew in pen - there was no pencils. It's amazing to realize it was TDalton that came up with the BOLD mechanic for the game and Chad Olson was the first to use the ADD 1 to both instruction. You guys were and are incredible innovators. It's a shame we're at a time and place where you have to apologize for some of your fantastic creations. I, like most of us that were there in the late 90s, know it was all tongue in cheek with NO malicious intent.

Yeah really great retrospective on those nGo sets, unfortunately nearly all my bootlegs didn't make my last move as they and my GWF Promoters were in that prerequisite 10% that always seems to 'fall off the truck' in every move. But having you guys say the names and moves and describe the cards brought back so many memories using them in the late 90s and into the 00's and used as expansion characters for my CPC fed.
Also side note as we work through the week here in Denmark us Americans typically take the Saturday after and get together or have small gatherings and celebrate T-Day all day. Interesting note is more and more Western/American holidays are starting to become normal in DK such as Halloween has really taken off in the last 5 years and kids started to actually go door to door just a few years ago and for the 1st time ever this year we were able to find a whole frozen turkey in the grocer here in DK whereas we usually have to make a border run for Germany to get a Turkey there every year before.

He wasn't covered, because he wasn't in your sets, but Randy Bugdale drew DEATH KNIGHT II for Pete Beck and put the NGO logo on the forehead of his mask. Pete said wait a minute.... He's NOT in the NGO! So, Randy colored it in and made it the crown we all know now. He had too color it in, because most don't know Randy drew in pen - there was no pencils. I meant to mention that too! I thought it was a real testiment to Randy's artistic skills that he was able to cover up the nGo logo and if you didn't know, you wouldn't have noticed! Also, Swarm, my apologies for screwing up on the new FTR character's name! He looks amazing and I'm really excited to find out more about him! |

Still listening but love that you guys are talking Psych. I worked at Disneyland with Steve Franks, the creator. Great guy and super happy for his success.
