   Oh, that's it, baby. That's it. Let's go. We did it. These are the type of moments I want to be a part of in Star Citizen, coming together as a group and completing a task that feels just truly epic. Star Citizen is an opportunity to explore, to connect with people, making the impossible possible. I am dropping fast. I got you. It's passion, it's creativity, relationships, friends. Friends that become family. Friends who fly spaceships. It is amazing, the quality of people that are involved in this project. that human connection that you're doing with other players, interacting with them. I think that it's special. You can go out on adventures and do crazy stuff with other people that maybe you won't be able to do otherwise. Let's go, LET'S GO, LET'S GO. THE VIP is

   secure. I have had so much fun in game and out. that I will remember 10 years from now playing this. Beating out most of QA in Pirate Swarm when they thought I was just a lowly office manager. We realized after 2 hours that we had spent a long time shopping for clothing. Attempt to blow up my org mates, not on purpose. It was totally worth it. We had the swarm. Under-gunned and being chased by a horde of Arlington goons. And as we jump out of the retaliator, we look back and the ship explodes.

   Stayed out there, opened up chat and said, "Help, I've just lost myself in the LA asteroid belt." People stop with their doing and they help a stranded player. Oh my god, I made your ship. Where else does that happen? Completing the jump a third time at the 2018 CitizenCon. I think you even see me like sort of like cringe up cuz it was so loud. And everyone was so excited and still hyped by the event. Everybody started dancing and we had a fantastic dance party with the backers, with the community. And we were able to give a t-shirt to Chris Roberts. I have to say that the community constantly surprises me. The combination of meeting new friends, playing

   together, but also sort of sharing the dream together and sharing ideas and thoughts and the energy and the excitement of it is brilliant. And because of their contributions, it becomes better than I than I imagined it. That's when I go, "Wow, okay. That is awesome." For a lot of people in the community, this isn't just a game. It's a very big part of my life. Changed my life meeting so many other space nerds. Ah, it means so much. I've made so many meaningful connections with people who I otherwise probably never would have met. Transcends languages, locations, areas. You got people all over the globe. You're a part of something so much larger than yourself. We're not only the fans are friends, but the developers are as well. And there's so much enthusiasm and positivity um brought by the fans.

   Who is so selfless with their time and is always willing to like help out new players and give back just coming from like a genuine love of the game. And I'm proud to be part of it. I'm a part of the process. There's something really nice about having that connection. It gives me a lot of energy to do the best job that I can. All these people are just rooting for you to succeed. These people that have entrusted you to execute, you know, on their dream. The dream is a reality. Building a universe isn't necessarily a It's not a small thing to take on, you know, if it's some people would say perhaps you should start smaller, but uh you know, we didn't, so there you go. Thank you to all you guys cuz you guys make all of this possible. Incredibly thankful and grateful. We definitely could not be where we are

   without the community, which is amazing. And you know, for me it is the best community in gaming. Happy birthday, Star Citizen. Happy birthday. Best and biggest gaming project out there in the world. You don't look a day over 6 years old. See you in the 'verse. I've made a lot of friends gaming through the years, but it really pales in comparison to the sheer number of friendships I've enjoyed as a Star Citizen backer, and for that I feel truly blessed. So, happy birthday, Star Citizen.
