From Team Yu:
"So. This happened.
Just when we think the #SaveShenmue Tweetathon is settling into a steady climb of reaching one million extra followers every 3rd of the month, yesterday's social media frenzy goes and doubles the audience of the previous event.
How on earth do you do it? How do you keep amazing us time after time? The messages you tweeted and retweeted in just a 24-hour period this Tuesday landed in the newsfeeds of 22.11 MILLION people. That is just crazy!
But that's what they say - Shenmue fans are crazy. Crazy for a sequel that was promised to us 13 years ago. And we continue to make it abundantly clear to Sega that this "problem" (if people aching to spend money on your IP is a problem) is not going away.
The scary success of this month's Tweetathon only makes us happier to share two very special announcements about the next event, scheduled of course for July 3rd. We'll discuss each of them in future posts but you can get the early scoop at this Thunderclap link:
https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/123 ... n-july-3rdThank you to everyone who has continued to push the campaign far and wide, from month to incredible month. We are in awe, and deeply proud to be associated with a fanbase capable of such inspiring feats of Yunity in the face of all cynicism. You totally rock, and if we could buy you all a Jet Cola we would."
