Good afternoon, good evening. Hey, how are you doing? This is Edwin with Thoroughbittal Command. Hey sir, he's Grover over here, of previously of Retrograde and now of Lottex. How's it going on your end?
Pretty good man. Yeah, thank you for your time and for all the alpha you're gonna drop here, but yeah, you remember you joined us on Discord for a while, so thank you for that. And then we also had a Twitter space talking about retro games.
specific back in the day as well. Yeah. Yeah. Back in the day. That's the right way to put it for sure. Right. But it's good to see that you're still building, you know, and you're still just pushing
to create new technology here in the space. Yeah, no for sure for sure. I mean once you get addicted to the D5 drug you can't really leave I think unless it becomes you get pressure from your wife or something right?
But still here we're still building and yeah happy to be here happy to be here. I think we've got Deadpool here as well who is my fellow co-founder here at vortex so maybe we'll do intros in a little bit.
Hi guys, nice to meet you. Happy to be here. Yeah, thank you. We got Dr. Doss going up here. He'll be taking care of the questions and just hosting for you guys.
I'll just be taking care of the logistics on the backend if anybody has questions, wants to come up just request and we'll get you guys up here. But yeah, I hope you enjoyed the conversation today.
Hopefully that is working now. I'll just have a blue truth connection issues. Can everyone hear me?
I can, but it still sounds like there's an issue. It sounds a bit chatty stuff. All right. Hmm. That's interesting. Well, what I want to do here. Give me two seconds. I'll switch to the yellow libel cables.
Yep, no problem, we got Rebel. These five up here, how are you doing sir? All good guys great to hear some familiar voices. Hey sir nice to see you nice to see you. I'm here I kind of miss on the old Grover.
Yeah, yeah, it's just been a while. I remember I was practicing my first ever pitch with yourself live on Twitter Spaces, which is always good fun. And I was here very capable of counting. So yeah, I'm sure you've been practicing a lot more since then.
For sure for sure. It's funny. Sorry.
What's that sorry? You can choose your turn.
Why, you still a little bit of choppy there, Doctor. I think using Bluetooth or something, just I don't know, maybe... I switched over to my ear pods, not my ear pods, my earphones, my earphones.
What are the code you know the things things with this code? I mean listen, yeah man, I mean, Fen is good but I don't know if he's that good. Yeah, yeah, it almost sounds like
it's not a earphone thing almost like a Wi-Fi thing. Really? Okay. I'm just going to have to make an apologies for this guys. I'm just gorgeous. I know why we'll be doing this.
Let me tweet out the space in the meantime.
It sounds like a doctor might be underwater with a dial at moody or something. So hopefully you can surface. Get some 4G or 5G, just plug that mobile phone into your body.
and then set to disconnect from Twitter spaces and maybe Twitter all the way and then come back in.
And maybe while we're waiting, I'm just looking at Grover's PFP, well probably not his PFP, but the Vortex one. And is there any sort of history behind this logo you could share with us while we're waiting on the doctor coming back? That's a great question.
I've inherited it from the original vortex team, but I do have my opinions. I think we might want to bring in some of the old retro design language into it and just sort of reflect the merger a little bit more. But yeah, I think it's just the cool logo.
I think that's as much as it goes. Deadpool might be able to chip in here. Yeah, I would say cool logo. That's probably the main reason. But yeah, we're pretty open. We're definitely going to have some tweaks as soon as the retrograde team comes in with a design stuff.
And man, that Red Rule Grade team and their designs are, I can remember some, the sort of the GIF type animations you used to do to advertise to our spaces. That was just, yeah, taking it a whole
new level. Yeah, I remember. Yeah, I was making a few things on Canva there with little flickering images coming up on the screens and things like that, which was, which was good fun.
