Just a warning ya'll who post in both forums. Obviously we have a forum under membership here where things will continue as we always have - but for those who post on G4 - no more posting anything from ANW there. In the past they have deleted full posts and even banned people so just make sure you keep it to this forums. This also goes for Kunoichi as well. Lord knows it might be MONTHS before we even see it here in the USA.

Well I know I already had posted bigblind's ANW pics at G4's forums and then the pics got removed and I got a PM from a mod about G4 wants to keep the course confidential. (I got no punishment for it though)
So yeah.....
BTW, in the PM I did notice some interesting wording about how they said they don't want the course being shown.
Is that implying it's going to be a series on G4?

Yes it is going to be on G4. They are going to show a series called "American Ninja Warrior". This is basically a juiced up version of ANC2 but outside of AOTS (about time..) and with a lot more money poured into it.
I didn't realize you got a post from G4 mods on it so quickly but figured it would be done pretty fast. They can't do anything to us here though. They have no right to do so. On their own boards though .. that's another story.

What's interesting is the official message.
"Guys, please try to make sure that you are not posting any spoiler material (pics, results, etc.) for the upcoming episodes until Saturday morning (8/29). G4 is pretty adamant about this.
We apologize for any inconvenience."
So, we can talk about the course when the shooting officially begins and we can talk about the results then as well?
I makes me wonder when this show is going to air. They may air it as soon as possible in order to build hype in between Ninjafests. The site has nothing listed for September.

Well they might recognize the potential problem with the show AIRING in Japan WITH the 10 ANW people at the end of September. Leads me to believe that they might actually show ANW qualifying as early as early to mid September?

Honestly though not many people really post on G4 ever since the mass kicks and deletions from the last 2 tournaments. Heck this is the reason this board has gotten as big as it has the short amount of time. Just keep it here and we are golden. G4 always fails to understand that people will watch their show no matter if they know ahead of time. Damn I live for Spoilers.. LOL!!

I'll be going every day I can (with the possible exception of the Semi-Finals and Finals, in case I don't make it that far... (Although I pray I do...)) and will be jotting down notes as much as possible. I'll also be trying to sneak my camera in to take quick snapshots of as much as possible. And if from there, if I can take a video of someone running it, so everyone can see the course in action, then I will be doing so. Either way, I will be taking notes...Notes... NOTES! Names, obstacle failure, times... whatever I can. I mentally did the same thing with obstacles and the best way to tackle them last time... it's just what I gotta do anyway! But then again... I might also be updating certain info on Twitter, for whoever may be following me anyway. Those who update my status on their cell phones, with limited text capability... beware!!!

Actually, I'll be there Friday. After Ryan and I meet at the airport, we're heading over to the hotel to check into our room (With another person who I don't think I've met before... goes by the forum name BaronBK), and then we're heading down to the course to check it out ahead of time. Dunno if I'll have any way to upload pictures or anything, as I won't have any device that can connect to the internet AND upload the pics (I have a PSP, but I have no way to get the pics onto the PSP in the first place).
Either way, I plan to get as much info online *here* (Not G4) as possible the day before, as well as getting as much info possible for Saturday and Sunday, at least.

Hey UncleSam! I'll have my laptop and the hotel should have free wireless internet so we'll have a way to upload pics and videos and stick it to G4 for telling us "Ooooo...no spoilers!" Would be nice if they showed this a lot earlier as a series on its own not just 5 minute segments during AOTS. Guess they would have enough footage to make it into a couple of episodes at least.

Please don't say they're tying this in to Attack of the Show. I'll have to catch these episodes as a podcast or on youtube- I refuse to watch AOTS. Does G4 not realize that they're starved for original programming and that they have a potential gold mine in American Ninja Warrior?

Just want to wish everyone good luck that's heading out to the course!
(And I'd love to see pics/notes/etc. I don't think we'll see anything soon from this on TV.)

Just watched Ryoga's interview on Mana and he said "spider wall, warped wall, cargo net". So I guess we know now that there will also be a warped wall, not sure what the cargo net and spider walls will be though. Maybe jump hang and spider climb?
