You have a progress thread? Oh wait, in the "alternate history?" What does that mean? I assume it means you actually don't have a progress thread. I may be misunderstanding this.

Progress thread is here. These guys know how to KSP.

Not to much longer now. 'Bout a day right?

I had this idea for the "forum team song" thread, but wasn't able to flesh it out until now.

Let's get some hype going!

(The tune is that of the Marines' Hymn)

♪♫ We are the mighty Forum, ♫♪

♫♫ The Vbulletin breed. ♪♫

♫♪ We've got the skill, ♪♫

♫♪ Got the right stuff, ♫♫

♪♫ We're the greatest on the web. ♫♪

♪♪ We've a mighty pack of mod makers, ♫♫

♫♪ An A-Team, Jedi, and Youtubers. ♫♪

♪♫ And a skilful bunch of soloists, ♪♫

♫♫ Who came along just for the fun. ♫♫

♪♫ So come on mighty Forum, ♫

♫♪ Let's show them how it's done. ♫♪

♪♫ With skill, and speed ♪♫

♪♪ The Forum team ♪♫

♪♫ Will have Reddit on the run.... ♫♪

Now we wait...

Since it's post-deadline, I kinda want to show people our submission. Can we?

Edit: Don't do it .

I'd guess so... Don't quote me (I should probably put that in my sig I say it so much).

Come on modders! And nice song Tw1 xD

Nope! There's been a bit of a delay with the other submission due to some technical issues. I've given them today, no less. Voting will start over the weekend.

Voting? I though this round was decided by Squad internally. Or do you mean a vote among the staffers?

Exactly that. I'll toss the entries out to the team and give them the weekend to choose.

[iClarion]

Edit: Don't do it .

Okie dokie XD

[metaphor]

Will the entries also be posted to the forum/reddit so that other people besides Squad can see them (even if they don't vote)?

[iClarion]

They will eventually

EDIT: And the thing you wanted is now a thing you have!

Oh, they're both good. Forum! Forum! Forum!

[m1sz]

both were great!, but I think forum won!, we need to account that they were using Real Solar System!, the size of that rockets is astonishing

[Tw1]

Both entries were impresive, but I found the Forum team's even more so. Their storytelling and execution made it.

But naturally, it's all up to the Devs.

Go forum!

May I say there's a typo in the OP: "Entires"

Fixed it.

Team COM's entry pleases me. They went above and beyond what was asked of them - regardless of the outcome, they represented the forum well.

Indeed. It makes me want to see it done in real life.

My thoughts exactly as I reviewed the album! Really gets you excited about actual space exploration.

Personally, I think we both did an extremely good job within the rules of our own specific challenges. I don't envy the devs having to pick because the challenges have almost nothing in common with each other. At this point, I am just happy to have had the chance to meet and compete against such a great group of people. Hell, they *created* a good bit of what we all use to play every day. If we lose, it will be to very worthy competitors.

Job well done . Still remember that this mission was filled mod parts and the entire mission was supported on the modding community. Go COM!

[The Destroyer]

Darn, forum lost. GJ Reddit team! Both were amazing!

[kmMango]

Ah well, great job to all involved.

[Streetwind]

Was this announced somewhere? I can't seem to find it.

Rowsdower quietly mentioned it in the latest KSP Weekly about .25....
