Happy 2012, everybody! Hope it’s treating you well so far.

Box of Danger in 2012 is hitting it big! We’re kicking off the year with our usual appearance at Ohayocon in Columbus, Ohio, January 27th-29th. Register now if you haven’t already, and come hang out with us either at the con or during our panels. We have two of ‘em this year: Abridging Theater and How To Panel. Watch us show you some Abridging videos (including two or three new videos from us!), or come get some tips from us on properly running a panel.

Speaking of Ohayocon, you want to look good while you’re there, right? Make a good impression on us while exciting all the ladies with your untamable swag? Then you should check out our revamped store page! The shirts are a bit pricey (roughly $25 + Shipping), but they’re quality shirts that won’t wear out or fade. You can also get 10% off your entire order for entering in the coupon code “flayzer”.

 

Regardless, looking forward to seeing you at Ohayocon, making more stuff this year and HITTING IT BIG.

Ohayocon 2012 and Store Page!

Author: Grant | Filed under: Abridging, Conventions, News, Panels

Hey, our good friends over at Show Me Your News have put up the Youmacon episode we appeared in! Stick around after the show for a special story time with Grant! Also, chill out for a bit on their site and wish them some good luck, as their site was recently viciously attacked and restarted in WordPress format (causing the delay of the episode’s release) – they’re good people, and a great community to hang out with!

Eddie and Grant on Show Me Your News Episode 99

Author: Grant | Filed under: Conventions, News

Oh man, you know you wish you had a shirt with our logo on it. Or maybe a shirt commemorating our lost butterfly fiend. Or maybe you want a shirt with something else on it, and you’ll tell us here.

Regardless, now’s your chance! Now you can show off your love for us on your chest without getting kicked out of public places! THE BOX OF DANGER STORE IS OPEN.

We’ll have more shirts on the way, but the current designs are as follows… (Click images to go to their store page, where you can customize their colors or get them on other garments)

 

Also, Eddie and Grant will be at Youmacon in Detroit, Michigan this weekend. Come hit us up if you’ll be around!

Box of Danger Swag Now Available!

Author: Grant | Filed under: Conventions, News

Well, it seems things are winding down for the Danger Crew and friends. I know we had a long drought of updates these past few months, but Ohayocon has recharged our creative juices. Meaning we’re pumped to get out episodes to you, the fans. PTAS should be back in the swing of things, with the next episode being scripted by WGS, CountAbyss, and Lord Moonstone. Not to mention new things in the works from WGS, Moonstone, and Dark Bomber?! Gasp. I know, I’m actually doing something. Hokuto no Ken Abridged episode 2? Eh, We’ll see. I’ll I say is it’s going to be awful. :)

So stay tuned, kids. ;)

Post Ohayocon Update

Author: Dark Bomber | Filed under: Conventions, Local, News

Well, it was a long time comin’, but it’s finally here.

Pokémon the Abridged Series: Episode 21 is now available on Youtube. Knowing them, though, it could go down any minute, so check it out while the getting’s good!

Our good man Roooster also provided us with a bit of laughs in the form of Dungeons and Dragons: The Ultimate Champion Series. Not totally sure on whether or not to continue this series. It’s not so much that we didn’t like it (we loved it, in fact), but this seems like a gag that might only work once or twice. Feel free to voice your opinions in the dedicated thread, or in the Youtube comments.

Oh, also this thing happened this weekend. It was called Ohayocon, and in all likelihood, you probably missed it. And boy did you miss out big. Videos are sure to be on the way, but here’s a tip for the future.

Probably more stuff coming your way, and a potential change in Podcast feeds again as well. Mevio apparently can’t keep up with us anymore.

PTAS 21, DaDtUCS, and Ohayocon Reflections!

Author: Grant | Filed under: Abridging, Conventions, News, Panels

Wow, has it really been THAT long since our last update? Well, my New Year’s resolution is to start making this site something really cool to be a part of. Sorry for all the delays and stuff, but understand that this site and everything involved with it is merely a hobby for those of us involved – We all have other jobs and often school to deal with as well, so that leaves precious little time to have fun with this website. That said, I’m off this WHOLE semester, so hopefully that’ll mean more stuff for our Box of Danger fans!

To get the year started right, we’ve updated the Dangercast, FINALLY. Dangercast 14 is here after weeks of failed uploads on Mevio. Hope it’s still relevant now that it’s only available in the far-flung future of 2011. Me, Greg, and Zac run down our high and low lights of 2010, and we threaten your very lives with explosive mp3s. Listen at your own risk! Also, please give your feedback in either the iTunes comments or in the official thread!

Also, in case you’ve forgotten, Ohayocon is coming up soon! A bunch of Box of Danger folk will be present, including myself, Eddie, Greg, Goo, and Joel. There’s also (as per usual) the unlikely possibility of an appearance by James, but don’t hold your breath. The big thing is how many out-of-state Abridgers seem to be showing up to the party. Check out the official thread for details, as this might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We STILL don’t have an exact time/date for our panel, but we do know it’ll be 90 minutes long. Swing by for some tips on abridging, crazy panel shenanigans, and games with prizes!

Once again, sorry for all the delays, and I (with the help of my fellow Box of Danger guyz) hope to keep this site much more active in the future, with maybe some new features… Hopefully.

Dangercast 14 and Ohayocon Stuff

Author: Grant | Filed under: Conventions, News, Panels

Hey losers, guess who posted TWO podcasts this weekend! THESE GUYS.

In Dangercast 8, Zac “The CountAbyss” Field, Devin “The NeoChopstix and Ultimate Champion of The Survivor Game” Keller, and Jacob “No Cool Screen-Name, But He’s Zac’s Brother, So We Let Him In” Field talk about two “Horror Movies” to get you into or out of the Halloween spirit – Zombies of Mass Destruction and Jaws: The Revenge.

In Dangercast 9, Grant “Master Wuggles” Smith, Eddie “I’m Dark Bomber Kid, and I’m a Bad Friend” Mills, Joel “Roooster” Bailey, and Matt “ModernTenshi04″ Degooey discuss their recent trip to Youmacon… as well as nearly everything else on their mind for a four-hour car ride. At the end, we also feature a little snippet of the afterparty to Show Me Your News’ upcoming podcast episode (which you should also totally check out here on iTunes when it comes out), where Grant, Eddie, and the SMYN cast jam out some tunes for your listening pleasure.

Enjoy nearly two-and-a-half hours of podcasting goodness, whether you’re subscribed to The Official Box of Danger Podcast, which also features plenty of Abridged videos, or The Dangercast, which is purely the audio podcasts! Please rate/comment on iTunes if you wanna make us REALLY happy (well, you’ll make Wuggles happy, anyway).

Dangercast Double Update Weekend Bonanza!

Author: Grant | Filed under: Conventions, News

The Matsuricon Panel has finally been given a time and day! It’ll be on Saturday, August 14th, from 2pm to 4pm!

Give us ideas of what you’d like to see us do HERE. There will likely be prizes, so come up with fun ways for us to give them away.

Panel Time and Day FINALLY Confirmed!

Author: Grant | Filed under: Conventions, Panels

Thanks to 1KidsEntertainment, we have returned to your iPods if you so desire, internet! Subscribe to us once again on iTunes by following this Link.

Also, don’t forget that Matsuricon is coming up! Still no exact word on when our panel’s going to be, but we know it’ll happen! If not, heads will ROLL… And they’ll likely be ours, because our fans are insane.

Also, if iTunes isn’t your thing, you CAN download all of our episodes from Megaupload, again, courtesy of 1KidsEntertainment. Check out his stuff, and maybe shoot him some thanks for being a bro and uploading all this stuff for us.

New iTunes Feed! Matsuricon!

Author: Grant | Filed under: Abridging, Conventions, News, Panels

Well, we told you it’d be out on the 6th, and we weren’t kidding. Here’s Pokémon the Abridged Series – Episode 19: Oh, How the Mighty Have Fallen.

To be completely honest, work for the next PTAS episode hasn’t quite started, but we do have some work done on the next Aminorphs, Hokuto No Ken Abridged, and 0083 Aridged scripts, so those should be on their way soon. Also, be sure to come visit us at Matsuricon if you happen to be in Ohio in August. As much as we love messing with you guys online, we really love meeting you (and messing with you) in person. We’ll surely have a panel that’ll be packed with hijinks as per usual, as well as showing some of our favorite abridgers’ episodes. Tell us what you think would be some good panel material HERE, as we’re always open to suggestions.

And, finally, I am looking for a way to fix the iTunes problem. Might take a while, but I think LordMoonstone over at TheMented will be our solution. Keep those fingers crossed, and Box of Danger might be back on an iPod near you!

Man, do I sound like a corporate pitch-guy, or what?
