Hey, cameron and other disappointed parkour movie fans. The retardation and lameness needs to be directed at me, not Matt. I am the reason this didn't happen for you guys, and I'm sorry. Please don't put this on anyone else (Matt, Logan, etc.).



That's the nutshell; here are the gory details:

1) two weeks ago, the marketing rep for the movie gets my contact info from Matt
2) last week, she sends me the PDFs for the passes; I ask her how many we can use, and she says as many as we print out.
2.1) I get massively sick with flu and can barely walk for a couple days. Access to a printer, handing out the passes, etc. are obviously not going to happen.
3) On the phone with Matt and Shae, I apologize for not being able to handle the passes in my condition. I try to make arrangements for them to handle my responsibility, but it's all pretty last minute and it obviously didn't work out.

I'll repeat here: This is my fault.

For his part, Matt said he'd be glad to make the announcement about the passes on TXPK. I wasn't thinking ahead to what kind of announcement he'd make (I wasn't thinking about much of anything beyond sleeping). That led to some wrong expectations.

So it's last-minute miscommunication, all starting with me. Thank you, Logan, for doing your best to cover for something you didn't know about.

If anyone wants to follow up on this (i.e. kick my ass), feel free to let me know. I'll be at Tranq next Saturday, at the workshop event.

This is sadly a very common recurrence that continues to happen with this "volunteer organization" and this continues to give the organization a bad name, no matter how valid the excuse is/was..(which it was very valid) It is just sad that the organization continues to let ITSELF down...over and over again. I can not blame individuals on this...I would have to blame the whole.
