Dunno. I know they wanted to do T'shirts that said Ninja Warrior but they haven't disclosed any details about what specifically. I saw T-shirt designs on the facebook page. Dunno if they're for the event or something else, but they are in existance!

It seems that G4 has a "special announcement" about ANW tonight on Attack of the Show. Probably saying Nagano is gonna be there or announce the $250,000 cash prize.

It's a translation error, they were trying to say 10 representatives from the US would be going to SASUKE.

G4 already announced the $250,000 thing during Comic Con.. All their commercials and screen blocker ads (What else are they to be called XD) keep advertising "Total Victory = $250,000" (That's a direct quote from the screen blockers). So it's probably the Nagano thing..

It's going to take place in an already popular place where tourist go through and from. "100,000 people" could also mean "100,000 people will walk through or by our area, but probably 15% will give a damn"

I'm thinking they're trying to run it like a street festival with lots of activities going on at once.
It's like those festivals in Japan where there's a mock course and lots of other stuff.
I think it's a great idea but not for the actual ANW competition. It's going to look unprofessional with the noise and the herds of people walking in the background.
I hope it works out. These things can be a blast, but I've also been to ones with unbearable lines, screaming kids, scorching heat, terrible food, terrible games, and even worse entertainment.

Well from the email we finally got saying when we were running sounds like its going to be better organized this time around. Telling us to be there at least 2 hours before our run in order to fill out any additional paper work / complete a walk through of the course, no logos or name brands showing on clothes, etc etc. They did say they have over 270 people they are going to run through the 2 days.

Sweet! I wonder if also comes in black like the ones the Americans get. I also wonder if the design will be the same size as the original one.
They left a comment and said it should be available on their store. "The designs will be available at g4tv.com/g4store for those of you who can't make it this weekend."

They should have thought of it earlier.. how many bootlegs have people bought already? Damn they could have made a killing! They should have problems keeping the shirts in stock honestly. Might sell out fast in L.A.

There is no better towel I want to dry myself with... than a Sasuke towel. I'd be reppin that at the gym, I don't even think I'd get dressed after taking a shower, I'd just walk around in that towel in public

Well considering it starts tomorrow I expect them to be finishing the course right about now.. Hopefully some Ninja will have cameras and start posting vids here of the qualifier round. Hopefully clearing runs.. So good luck to the forum members going. Someone at G4's forums said that the staff said something about a "Ring Slider" so I'm guessing that's the Circle Slider (G4?... Having Relevant obstacles?... Should I post the Opposite Day pic?

They have posted the official rules on the ANW2 website. g4tv.com/articles/71709/American_Ninja_Warrior_2_Official_Rules/Summary of ANW2 qualifying rules: - Runs are planned to be from 8am to 8pm on August 7-8 with most runs being appointed time slots. If you don't have an appointment you can wait in line at 7am but will not be guaranteed a run.
- Competitors will run 6 obstacles where the fastest 40 who complete the course move to semifinals. The top 30 compete in the semifinals with the bottom 10 as alternates.
- Semifinals are to be held on August 9 on an expanded course.
- The fastest 15, plus 2 alternates, will be invited to the live-in training reality show August 16-20. Anyone who can't participate will be replaced by the producer's choice.
- Producer will select 10 people of their choice to go to Japan to compete in Sasuke 26.
