Travis A. Shaw (”TAS”): He’s Going to CAPTIVATE08. Are You?

May 8th, 2008 Seth Killian

The Phantom of the Capcom Unity Opera, TAS can be found lurking in nearly any thread ready to drop science. If our first invitee Shawn was an artist, TAS is a writer, with thousands upon thousands of posts filled with frighteningly on-topic, accurate, and thoughtful information. His grammar is even good, and so obviously doesn’t understand how this internet stuff is supposed to work.

His pain is your gain, however, and like a little internet Amaterasu, his posts spread enlightenment throughout Unity. Woe to anyone preparing to spout nonsense—when it comes to Capcom, TAS knows his stuff.

While Street Fighter is his specialty, not a week goes by that I don’t read a TAS post about some esoteric piece of Capcom trivia and I go “really?” Then it turns out he was right. That is in my face, but I know when I am licked, and so we’re proud to announce that TAS will be joining us in sunny Las Vegas for the CAPTIVATE08 Spectacular!

TAS… Come on down!

Awesome, man!!! Congratulations!! ^_^ V

I’m glad that a big ol’ Street Fighter nerd (and I say it with pride) like you got invited. You deserve it!

Give ‘em hell, kid. Give ‘em hell…

It’ll be nice working with proper villains again. Unity Mods have the power to subdue all…

Hahaha…the golden Wonka ticket just makes me laugh.

I eagerly anticipate seeing all the names. That’s two down. Three to go. :D

I’ve never even heard of this. Are the Unity members chosen at random or by special criteria?

BTW, if you folks want to see ultimate in SF nerdom, you need to check the Street Fighter Perfect Project.
