I announce that SAGE 2014 and is open & much earlier of course to forgive people to not having SAGE 2013 last year, due to certain unfortunate circumstances. A good compromise for that period that we finally could almost named SAGE 2013-2014!! Here's the link to the SAGE Website. http://sagexpo.org/ For those who still don't know yet what it is, SAGE (Sonic Amateur Game Expo) is a virtual expo of sonic fangames created originally by BlazeHedgehog which normally takes place every year in July/August. It's mainly for Sonic fans and showcases loads of awesome Sonic Fan-games. This time around, there are some awesome ones here such as a new version of Sonic Time Twisted, Sonic Project Eclipse, Sonic Lost Adventure, and more. Go check them out for yourself, many of these are rather good. I known of this event since the very first expo that began there more than a decade already and I've never been disappointed by the many surprises that you can see at it. This is an expo which started very amateur, but now it's an expo that has never ceased to impose its importance over the years, to the point of inviting real programmers who have worked with SEGA. Today it's no longer just an ordinary expo of sonic fangames but a huge fan festival with fun events, like radio live 24/24, live musical performances, exclusive animations, chat online, live interviews, gaming live performances, drawings and other surprises and so on. For this expo, it will be from February 23, 2014, until March 1, 2014. Only one week to enjoy. So One week you won't want to miss!!! It seems they are focusing more on 3D fangames this year. Take a look, You will not regret it!!! Edited by Shyna, Feb 23 2014, 04:57 PM.

If someday we meet in person in the near future, and I had recently done anything that would confirm that I had become a Brony (which as of now I am not one), such as if I had posted on a Pony-related fan-site, drawn a Pony-themed artwork, contributed to a Pony fanfic, or anything else along those lines. If I have done anything like that, I want you to punch me in the face without warning. This make sound like I'm joking, but I am absolutely serious about this. Ignore any future statements retracting this if I ever make any. Though if you do, please first confirm that it is me who is doing it, and not some Brony who is posing as me and wants to see me get punched. I do not wish to go down the path of the Bronies, and hopefully those of you reading this will help me so that it stays that way, if god forbid I ever even attempt it. Thank you.

I don't know where I'm going.

I haven't seen a SAGE in years! I'm really excited to see some of these titles. Sonic Time Twisted is a project I have known about for quite some time now, and it's amazing to see it coming back. I was hoping I'd see some new Super Sonic Knockout demos or footage, but this lineup looks like a lot of fun. I'm downloading everything as I post this.
	Facebook \| Twitter \| YouTube Hey there party people! I started a gaming YouTube channel! I'll be posting all my latest vids in the signature. Keep up with them! Sonic Crossroads 6 years ago, I began a fangame project called "Pure Shadow". I cancelled the project due to lack of time and other priorities. Now that I'm in college, and have loads of more time, I found the file and began to pick it up again. After refreshing my memory of all the coding put into the engine, I decided to use it to write a new project. Drawing out a new plot and new gimmicks for the project, I decided to rename this project called Sonic Crossroads. This project is going to be completed in Game Maker 8 PRO coded by myself and my friend who goes by the alias, MastaaFrederick. Because of our lack of experience in many aspects to increase enjoyability (such as music, artistry, animation, etc.), we want to develop a small team to work on this project. Anyone who is interested, please message me. On top of these things, we want to create a new antagonist for the story. We, MastaaFrederick and I, need a whole new character concept. We want the most creative fan character we can find, and create a sprite sheet for this character. We would like to find a character via messenger. Demo for the fangame coming soon.

This SAGE is such a nice surprise. It really made my day today. There's two games I sort of had a problem with on this SAGE though. The first is Digimon Heroic Battle Spirit, which I do not think belongs in a convention like this. The second one is "Da Rock," though I think that one was just done as a joke.

This Salom Adventure fangame is very impressive.

Overall though, I really loved what this SAGE had to offer. It was so great.
