Frogboy went to California which he says was for the game Elemental: WoM, but it was actually for some underground street fighting!!  Here I was spending my Friday night in the parking garage of an abandoned building gambling on different fellas who are beating themselves into a bloody mess.  I then get ready to place my next bet while reviewing the statistics sheet of the fighters and recognize "Frogboy" is the name of one of the fighters... so I turn looking to see who enters the fighting circle and sure enough it was him!!! He looked a little nervous so I grabbed my 64ounce bottle of vodka from my icechest and pushed my way towards him.  Upon approaching I knew it was definitely him from the many videos I've seen online regarding Stardock games.  Before I could even offer Frogboy took the vodka with one hand and stuffed a $50 into my shirt pocket with the other.  He then proceeded to chug and finished half the bottle.  At this point his opponent entered the circle who was 6'5_feet tall, at least 200lbs, a few teeth missing, 5 tattooed tears near each eye, his forearms had the impression of daggers branded into his skin and the crowd called him "Crackor".  I looked at Frogboy and said, "I would be nervous fighting this fella too" then Frogboy responded, "I'm a developer and I'm a little nervous about my work which is approaching its release date.... these fights is how I relax." While I placed a $200 bet on Frogboy I could tell the other fella was charged and ready while Frogboy seemed nervous and distracted. Crackor just gazed at Frogboy and only said, "Time to tuck you in and say goodnight." Just now I believe another one of the developers from Stardock came thru the crowd and Frogboy pushed away the bottles of beer he brought, but took two Red Savina peppers from him.  I was stunned to see Frogboy chew those peppers as if they were raisins then another drink of the vodka. I could see no visible change as if the vodka and pepper were only stored by his body to be released later.  Now the two minute bell rang and the other developer started talking to Frogboy about Elemental:WoM... saved games not loading, out of memory errors, half_broken editors, etc., etc., .  I could see a rage inside Frogboy building as his teeth clenched and his fist gribbed so tightly it cut into the palm of his hand causing his own blood to drip quickly.  Then as the two minute bell finished the other developer finished his speech he pointing to Frogboys opponent saying, "... and it's because we are still waiting on Crackor to finish updating his code!" At this moment Frogboy evolved into a ruthless predator leaping at Crackor with kicks and elbow shots... I couldn't believe the speed and fury.  The crowd was roaring with excitement Crackor was starting to bleed, while somewhat stunned Crackor landed a double fist strike into Frogboys face and the blow flew his entire body into a nearby cement wall... crashing him into the ground. Frogboy stood up as if not even phased... yelling, "That's no excuse for not having updated your code!!" .  Crackor was now aware this was serious and the two twirled into a fight so intense it could only be described as a bloody tornado and the noise from the crowd was a white noise simulating the wind.  After 20mins Crackor fell unconcious due to the amount of blood he lost and at this moment the other developer shot Frogboy with a huge tranquilizer dart like the ones used on bulls and lions.  There's not much else to say except that even if Frogboy lost it was the best $200 fight I've ever seen. 

That's silly. Everyone knows that Frogboy was struggling with his blue collar job trying start his rap career. Unfortunately, he couldn't get no respect, because rival rappers "Leaders of the Free World" kept harassing him. He finally challenges them to a one-on-one rap off, where Frogboy beats him and earns the respect of his peers.

Jeesus...you're both wrong. Frogboy only said he was going to Cali. That was just a cover for his Vegas vaca. He had to tell the wife something didn't he? It's not like he could say "Hey babe, I'm going to Vegas to spend 250k of the companies money on hookers and blow, later!!". The best part is he gets to deduct it all from his taxes at the end of the year.

Its not on Steam that was a photoshopped image.

Not a whole lot, mostly forum goers with nothing to do until Elemental making Stardock fanfic every chance they get.

Allright, serious answer:

• Beta is now closed
• Frogboy went to LA for a g4tv interview. Air date yet unknown. Frogboy has now returned. A few more interviews/previews/articles have appeared on other sites.
• Some new threads came up questioning the decision to push ahead with the august 24th release date. Mainly from people who feel that the beta isn't the game that they were expecting. SD employees responded with assurances that the current build is so far ahead of the beta that the latest beta is quite horrible in comparison for performance, stability and UI.
• The updated UI was demonstrated in some new gametrailers.com videos
• Modding tutorials came up. Some other interesting things happened, but you should check the dev journal; I'm not going to repeat because that section is well organised.
• Early copies of standard and limited edition boxes and the book were shown off.
• Frogboy and other SD employees seem relaxed and jovial, which I have interpreted as a reflection on the state of the game development. Well in hand, and on schedule.
• We're all waiting for release. Some of us are bored out of our minds. August 24th. Almost two weeks! I don't know how I'm going to survive
