Of course there is a video of the event. Well done to everyone who took part and Satu for eventually coming first :)

wow, so much more detail this year in the build, the fireworks were much more realistic!
any chance of getting it posted on youtube also, so i can add it to the city playlist?
it would not last long on youtube im afraid. Quite literally got fed up with having videos banned, suspended, soundtracks removed and adverts added – and thats to the videos that DONT have copyrighted musc on them.
bummer. i’ve noticed it is getting trickier.
Lord love a duck, Loki. What kind of stuff is getting your vids banned? Avatar slander? Over clothed ladies?
u.s. copyright law on the music.
I
get that bit, Clockwinder, but Loki said he had problems
even without copyright
law. Is it some kind of content thing, some prudish stuff? Game
designers claiming propriety over steampunk? Or did I
misunderestimate? Not impossible, as I am perennially clueless,
as many hereabouts can attest…
D*mm*t. What the h*ll? What is this dang formatting curse I gots?
Most impressive, both in the filming and how much better the city is looking! Yay!
Also… Unicorn! ^_^
Excellent! Thoroughly enjoyed the event and the video.
Links to old videos – only the first year was not recorded. i really can’t express enough how valuable these videos are to me.

notice the original Port Babbage skyline in the opening shots of 2008 *koff*koff*
also in 2008 at 3:10 is the only picture i’ve seen of the Bob’s Loner Lane with the catwalks (that was the first rebuild). notice the similarity to the Armada 1.0 build.
we were doing all that with 10x prims back then. now we got things that can do a whole lot more for less. bring back the skyline!
*makes note and promises to build something big and super*
I loved those catwalks!
Trivia: The Cocoajava Cafe building was originally built by Bob as part of the original Loner Lane, but it didn’t stay up very long. He threw it at me from his inventory when I bought my first plot of land in Babbage. :)
I took a few dozen pics – they’re in a Picasa album, but you should be able to see them. Holler if the link doesn’t work for you!
I had a lot of fun watching the race! I love this annual event and try never to miss it.

Excellent photos, thank you.
Picasa is being a brat for linking to specific photos. But if you have sharp eyes, you can see where Loki totally photobombed me.
RAGHHH hehhee
Was it picture 30? Cuz that’s epic!
Yup, pictue 30! Which was even more hilarious from my side, as I was lining up shots and JUST pushing the button when blammo he arrived. It was really funny to see.
He really must have startled you – it looks like you are dropping that candy apple.
I missed it this year because Professor Valeska had some literary Do and
I had to monitor the retorts in his absence. Seems every time something
fun is happening he has some geriatric pursuit. Sumtimes I think he
doan pays me enuff…
