Do whatever you wish with it. Link it, embed it, give it to your friends. Just don't duplicate it, because the license I have for one of the songs covers ONE project only.

A little bit of a rant: I went through the bother of making "buttons" at the end of the vid, intended to give direct links to here, savecoh.com, and the petition, (since I had seen videos with clickable links before) only to find out that youtube doesn't allow urls AT ALL except to a couple of key places. Fortunately, ONE of them is change.org, so at least there's a clickable link to the petition.

edit: Also posted on the NC-CoH forums, and at CapeRadio.

Great work, everyone who was involved in this project, no matter how big or small.

Holy Crap!!! Seriously, this should be manditory watching for anyone who is feeling discouraged about our side of the fight right now.

It makes my whole Parody Song effort look like Romper Room stuff, but it did get me reved-up to get back and tighten-up my edits on it. You inspire me Tim!

It is now on my FACEBOOK!

Yes. I logged into my evil horrible account I made ages ago on the evil horrible "social media" thingy, just to post this link. The grand total of TWELVE people on my list will see it! Oooooh! GO me! >.>;

I don't think there is a percentage known for how much I agree with you, just watched it and felt my chest puff out, fists clench in determination, and a wish to find out who by me seems to be cutting onions.
That video is just. Freaking. Awesome.

Superb work - I'd had an idea for something similar, but yours is a far better rendition than mine. :)

Awesome video! Just like the rough draft version...this one made me cry. The bf asked me why I was crying and I told him it's because of how proud I am of CoH and it's community.


This video makes me proud to be a hero in Paragon City. I think this video, the ones which have been posted by others, and the ones to come should be seen as a symbol of solidarity...and of our fight to save Paragon City. We represent different cultures, countries, states, sexual orientation, etc...but the one thing we have in common is that we are heroes...and heroes do not give up! There may be times when it seems the battle is lost...the future uncertain...but we have to remember that we will stay strong...we will stay united...and we will continue to face every battle together hand in hand...like heroes!

As I posted on YouTube in response to this: Fantastic job.

For some reason, it had me recalling the vitriol that has been spewed out over the years whenever the NGE is mentioned. I think it's a good possibility that NCSoft could be the next studio to be the focus of the righteous ire of an entire game's population, if they don't allow CoH to live on in some fashion.

Hopefully it will never get to that.

Is there any way we can get that projected onto the building at NC Soft somehow?

Beautiful video. Congratulations, everyone.

Great video!
I've liked it on youtube and also posted it on reddit (http://redd.it/10fwwy).
I suggest anyone who hasn't liked either yet do so, signing up for a youtube and reddit account is very pretty straightforward if you don't already have one.

Those damn ninja onion choppers.

That video is awesome.
The wisdom of Shadowe: Ghostraptor: The Shadowe is wise ...; FFM: Shadowe is no longer wise. ; Techbot_Alpha: Also, what Shadowe said. It seems he is still somewhat wise ; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.* FFM: I think you're mostly wise in this instance, apart from one part.
