Where have you been?
Santana Claws
Chilling with the cool kids, you've been left out.
Rifleman
I've been watching you from the shadows and bushes etc...

Good one.

Well, we recorded a podcast on sunday night.
The first podcast was funny, but went a bit off topic and went on too long.
This new one is more concise and to-the-point, but not as funny.

Hopefully the next one (to be released sat 30th june or sat 7th july) will be just in the middle. biggrin.gif

Going to upload the second when i get home from work.

MadHatter

I don't even know what WinFixer2005 is. Pretty sure I don't have that installed. What's wrong with iTunes and TuneUp Utilities??

lol words of the wise.
Silverbullet7
Alright so half the world must be "noobs" since they use an iPod and iTunes.
You have 0 proof that TuneUp Utilities does nothing.
I don't click yes for the stupid ads.

Your little friend needs to stop making a fool of himself. I didn't ask for any explanation. I simply posted a screenshot of what the problem was for the podcast. There was no need to make any comment about my font. Drop it.

I'm glad your friend wasted his time. Go on having your chats about something that isn't affecting you in any way. Have fun.
Elanzer
Theres nothing wrong with iTunes, and that's coming from someone who hates Apple. It's pretty much the only decent choice if you have an iPod/ require use of Appleish features like podcasts etc. Tuneup and that font however I can agree with.
Santana Claws
Back on topic. I'm not trying to be mean or cynical in my response, so here it goes. How about not making the podcasts so long? Personally, I get bored watching you guys talking about random stuff. I think you could get more views and hold the attention span of viewers by making the podcasts shorter, because it would make the viewers (and not just website loyalists) want to come back for more.

What is the purpose of the podcasts again? I thought it was to talk about technology, games, and related, not to have a conversation amongst yourselves full of lame jokes. You can still be witty and humorous, but get to the point. I felt like I was being forced to watch the Gilmore Girls.

If you plan on discussing/drinking beer, find some mystical rare brands to enchant us with, not Stella or Corona... you can literally get that anywhere. Perhaps you could drink stuff that is exclusive to your area, like from local brewers?

Sorry if I sound like a jerk, but thats my opinion.
The End
Sorry to say but these video podcasts aren't that great. Straying from the actual gaming community and getting dull.

In my words "shitcast"

Not to sound like a douche bag.
Rifleman
I share the same views as Santana and I don't think I could put it better myself, he got it just right. It's a good idea and if done right it can be good in practice too but I just felt myself getting bored after about 5 minutes.
Siberus
it works for me now
MadHatter
Well, thanks for the feedback everybody. I do appreciated it.
I'm looking at changing the format and content of the podcast to really improve it. Right now it just doesn't seem to flow as well as it could...

Anyway, back to the drawing board...
Silverbullet7
You should really start over, exactly. I don't think they are all that bad.
I mean yea, you do go off-topic a bit, but that also keeps it entertaining.
If you just stuck to one idea the entire time, there would be no flavor or variety to the video. I say go with what you have already.
Santana Claws
You tell him to start over, then you tell him to stick with what he already has... thats not conflicting at all.
WolfXI
IT'S A CONTRADICTION! :O
Santana Claws
Thats Silver for you.
Shaun
I think they're fine as they are. I quite enjoy them.
Santana Claws
I don't think they're CSDL material, i.e. quality.
Silverbullet7
I didn't mean to say "You should really start over." I meant to say you shouldn't start over. Sorry.
Siberus
i love how people in england talk. so cool i wish i could talk like that. but nooo i live in sh.ity america. what i think you guys should talk about is.... ME! yea talk about me and how cool i am. no JK well there is this really cool website you guys should go on and talk about. its called www.thecrims.com. its like a cool mafia game its not like 3D or you run around with a guy or anything. check it out and if you have trouble noing how to play it talk about it on the podcast..!!!
WolfXI
How about the rising cost of gas prices? tongue.gif

Hmm, how about airsoft? I've noticed a lot of us are getting into it and maybe you guys could do a little section on it. biggrin.gif
Siberus
yea i can post gass prices here that i see on average everyday. Right now its about 3$
WolfXI
It's only about $1.16 a gallon here. ohmy.gif
Siberus
WTF! were do you live?
Rifleman
Canadaland.
Siberus
ohhhh yea it used to be like 1.30$ for gass here but not anymore. it rediculous
Elanzer
You can't complain, it's the equivalent of around $6.65 a gallon here, one of if not the most expensive areas in the world for fuel as far as I'm aware. If you remember back to the car thread, this is why efficient/economical cars matter so much and hungry American vehicles are shunned.
Silverbullet7
Actually I can complain. $3.19 is way too much to pay for gas as is $6.65.
It's not something to be proud of honestly.
akaDan
he totally sounds proud of it
