Tall Guy who is a beloved fan and friend of EC has put up some ebay items for sale, with all the proceeds going to Sonic Relief. While not quite the same rarity as say Sonic 1 signed by Yuji, there are some nice posters which are hard to get a hold of.

Up for grabs are 3 Sonic Free Riders Posters, linked here, here and here.

Some of you may be wondering what the big fuss is about one guy leaving SEGA, people come and go all the time in jobs, so why does this one guy get so much attention?

Well put simply this man has worked exceptionally hard to make SEGA recognise more of the Sonic community, arraigning Summer of Sonic from SEGA’s side of things for three years in a row on top of his normal duties as a community manager. He has poured his heart and soul into building bridges between the company and the fans, and while some may belittle his achievements or complain about him, it doesn’t change the fact that he has done a lot for the community and deserves out praise.

So I would like to take a moment to thank AAUK, from all of us at Emerald Coast, for all his hard work over the years at SEGA and wish him all the best in his future endeavours!

With the heartwarming co-workers I have being busy, Nemain with Uni and Vger with world conquest, it was decided the heartless one had to do something to help people… Why?

So here is my proposition to you guys, i’m willing to draw you a sketch if you donate a least £1 to sonic relief, yep just 1 quid and i’ll draw ye a sketch of your favourite character or fancharacter either live on the boombox livestream or hand drawn sketch, and anything you donate goes straight to help less lucky people, and ii get drawing practise.

So how does it work?

Well go to the sonic relief page linked above, and donate at least 1 british pound sterling with a comment saying it is for EC to draw you something, then put a comment here or send us an email (urtheart at gmail dot com) linking to your comment and i’ll get on it asap.

I say at least £1 please feel to donate more, if you are lucky I might do more than one for ye, or colour it, even vger and nemain might take time out of their busy schedules if you donate a good amount.

So what ye waiting for go donate something now!

Okay I’m a bit late in bringing this up but there’s still plenty of time left. Sonic Relief as you should all know by now is a Sonic fan run fund raiser in aid of comic relief which helps children in Africa a worthy cause. Well it’s probably best that I let Doctor MK explain from the SSMB explain in his own words.

It’s been a while but Etherial Online, the joint forum of Sonic Wrecks is back online thanks to the efforts of AAUK and Fastfeet! So head on over there and thank them in person!

It’s now no longer Valentines Day anywhere in the world, and I can confirm that someone got the answer to the spot question exactly right!

I started the show on Round 22. If you listen to the Livestream, you’ll notice that I mention I am on round 23 about two minutes in. HOWEVER… You can hear the round changing right at the start of the stream, meaning I technically started one level earlier! I also showed I was on level 33 (changing to 34) once I got the fifth perk at the end of a monkey round. This means the correct answer to our spot question was 12, and Alex373 nailed it exactly! Congratulations! Send me an email at deathanchor *at* hotmail.co.uk with your postal details so I can send you your prize, dude! Thanks to all the others that entered too – Normal EC Airwaves services will resume shortly…

Oh yeah… Sorry DtN is late. Too much uni work and other things going on. Expect an update soon!

Because we forgot to do this on air… Whoops.

As a little bit of fun, we want you to guess how many levels I completed on Ascension from the start of the show to the end. There’s clues in the Livestream if you missed the show. We were going to make you guess what level I was on when the show finished, but the Livestream gives that away. 😉 The closest guess gets a prize… Namely something Sonic related from my merch haul. Haven’t decided yet, but it’ll be a figure or plushie of some description. One clue I will give you is that I did NOT start at level one – I was a bit higher than that when we went live! Comment on this post with your guess by the end of tomorrow (14th February) and the closest guess wins the prize. All it takes to enter is a number, so comment away!

Oh yes, one entry per person only… Or else Richtofen will gut you with the Bowie knife and bathe naked in your blood. DO NOT DISPLEASE HIM!

It’s been over half a year now, but Summer of Sonic still has things being related from the year gone by, and of course we are preping for this years events.

During the SoS10 Roareye Black was on the floor to create a video to showcase just what made Summer of Sonic the event it is, along with Discoponies from the Sonic Show.
So here for your enjoyment is just under and hours worth of film from SoS10, including Vger’s Wrecks Factor forfeit, Crush 40’s concert excerpts, and interviews with both Nemain, officially dubbed the Merch Queen by Roareye, and Vger, dubbed the man with the Mansion Pad.

It’s with Emerald Coast’s usual brisk pace that I’d like to finally bring you the results of the Dreams to Nightmare motivation poster competition winners. I had planed on getting all this sorted before Christmas however life has a bad habit of getting in the way, so the winners can consider it a new year prize.

Can we get a drum roll please?… okay I’ll settle for the drill sound effect… (continue reading…)

Urtheart has already weighed in with a new year message but I thought I’d better poke my head up and say hi as I haven’t posted in almost two weeks.

2010 was a great year for Emerald Coast, I finally got a site design I’m happy with, we added the amazing artistic talent of Nemain to the staff, we’ve strengthened our ties with the community and sister site Sonic Wrecks… and I got to go to Japan for two weeks. Okay that last part had nothing to do with the site.

So what can you expect from Emerald Coast this year? (continue reading…)
