Make Love, Not Warcraft Wins Emmy Award!

Some breaking news: The WoW-based, machinima-laced South Park episode, Make Love, Not Warcraft, won the Emmy award for Outstanding Animated Program (for Programming Less Than One Hour). More details over at the News 4 Gamers site.

As someone who has judged the Emmys in years past, I know the competition they were up against was most likely extremely tough, but its a testament to the great writing and top caliber talent. Congrats to both South Park Studios and Blizzard (with a wink and a nod to both Tristan and Terran) on an amazing win!

Aside notes: There's been some real movement in the Machinima community in recent weeks -- HBO purchasing rights to Douglas Gayeton's My Second Life, both Microsoft and Blizzard announcing their Machinima policies, etc. These haven't gone unnoticed - however, I've been working on the blog's redesign in the background, along with getting some help for the blog. So hang tight, and expect the relaunch within the next few days.
