Podcast? (Mangcast?)

[AAsama]

So me and gongon(seen on the TF2 server) recently finished our norwegian podcasting business for our site but we still feel like making people listen to us, so we figured: HAY! Maby mangs/vgfags want/can be forced to listen to us? We both speak english all day anyways, and shit wouldnt be too hard.

So before we set up shop, is this interesting at all?
Things we want to do in the podcast:
- Games, old and new.
- Events(mang events and other relevant things)
- Interviews
- General internet?

Give your opinion, we obviously dont want to put effort into this if theres no interest.

[MayuZane]

I'd give it a listen.

[Exalt]

Sounds cool to me.

[Americo]

Me and Helst (and other people but you wouldn't know them) do a similar thing on my site. If you want to listen for ideas that is.

That does sound interesting though you have to have some kind of catch. Simply doing news won't be AS good. I use mine as a "Roundtable" like discussion. Where a few people present their opinion (right or wrong, political or not, y'know?) so it makes it more fun to me.

AAsama has done this before for a gaming website you know.

I'd join in

[Americo]

I didn't know. I assumed the "our site" thing was more of a casual comment, wasn't aware it was serious type.

[Americo]

K... The Norwegian Kotaku? Heh.

[Comment]

You all know you can't get enough of AAsama's radio host voice.

I'd be interested to see how this goes.

[PaintedBlackCloud]

I like this idea.

[Далтон]

sure

[Psychosis]

Interviews?

That won't end well.

[Micolithe]

why not.

[PaintedBlackCloud]

And now let's go to a pre-recorded interview with Exalt.

"Hello Exalt."

"Hi. How ya doi-"

"I BET YOU'RE GAY"

[Americo]

I don't think he meant interview us...

[Psychosis]

That and just about everyone here has massive egos.

The hatred many of you have for me will fail in comparison for how you will hate each other after the interviews begin. LOL

[Далтон]

And now let's go to a pre-recorded interview with Exalt.

"Hello Exalt."

"Hi. How ya doi-"

"I BET YOU'RE GAY"

"Hello Exalt"

"Hi Awsam-a, how are yWHAT THE FUCK GUYS RTV THIS MAP SUCKS FUCK"

"Excuse me?"

"Oh I'm just playing Tf2 right now. Everyone's having a good time on balloon race, but I'm not having fun and we can't have that now can we"

[King]

Man fuck balloon race.


I'll listen if it entertains me.

[Exalt]

And now let's go to a pre-recorded interview with Exalt.

"Hello Exalt."

"Hi. How ya doi-"

"I BET YOU'RE GAY"

If they interviewed you, it would be on the topic of porn sprays. BAD END would co-star.

[Kash]

"today we're here with Kerry aka "Krowzivitch"

"WHY!?"

[Micolithe]

I figure a kerry interview would be suspiciously similar to Natalie's Rap from SNL.

[Leizor]

lol

[Nalfang]

"Today we're interviewing a faggot- I mean Nalfag- I MEAN NALFANG"

"What did I even do?"

[AAsama]

Well i did mean interviews with people like game producers and stuff, still have some contacts and arranged interviews that didnt come trough earlier. Atleast we can most likely get an interview or two with a guy i know in funcom, maby about secret world?

Buuuuuut..i guess ,if theres actually something worth discussing with them, we could do interviews with people from around here.


Thanks Americo, if you could link me to your podcasts i could give it a listen and see how you guys do it. As for just reading out news, we quickly found out that it is a boring thing seeing as the ones interested in such a podcast most likely knows about the biggest things. So "original content" only.

[Далтон]

come trough

cum trough

[AAsama]

You are off the christmas-list.

[Vaah]

Do it.

You should interview me, because you know something totally unexpected would happen about 10 seconds into it.

[AAsama]

....bees?

In the signature link. Click picture.

I would disagree that the ones interest would know everything, as I feel like a lot of gamers focus in areas. It doesn't hurt to post them though... The only real problem would be if you post podcast at a slow pace, then you'll have news like decades old ha-ha. But yeah, doing opinions on stuff is cool.

[AAsama]

Yeah i guess thats another reason not to do news, dont want to be bound to a "release plan".

I heres (http://gamepad.no/downloads/podcasts/Podcast_16.03.2009.mp3) a sample of our earlier work. We havent made a 100% english podcast, but heres one that is mostly in english. Not alot of us speaking but still very interesting.

[Bromang]

AAsama, what dialect are you speaking again?

[AAsama]

Nynorsk, sub-group: sunnfjord-dialect.

[Sanjiyan]

"today we're here with Kerry aka "Krowzivitch"

"WHY!?"

"Heeeellooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooo >:("

I laughed at when you went "uhhhhhhhhh, I don't know" XDDDDD!

[Americo]

Heh-heh. They are pretty bad but they are mostly just temp things til I get the hang of the software and what not I'm using down.

[SexyTiger]

You shouldn't really put out your little temp things until you're fully ready for the show or whatever. That's like saying "hey guys listen to my CD. I'm still learning the notes on my guitar though."

[PaintedBlackCloud]

Oh man, Comment you have to make saturday morning broadcasts to all those little kiddies waiting to find out what happens to sailor moon fighting with a rat or whatever shit you read.

[Exalt]

You about hit the nail on the head there Painted.

[MayuZane]

Yeah, podcasts consisting of readings of bad fanfics by Comment would be great.

[Americo]

Assuming that was to me... It had to go up so my professor could grade the podcasts. They were for a class. We had to create a page to showcase them in an operating mode. It's only still up and continuing because I've been using it for feedback from the professor / friends.

[Comment]

I am unsure that Storytime is fit for general consumption. Or anyone's consumption, really. And yet we keep doing it.

[King]

I already suggested podcasts to comment. We kind of squandered our reactions to the stories already done which is half the fun

[Doug]

So before we set up shop, is this interesting at all?
Things we want to do in the podcast:
- Games, old and new.
- Events(mang events and other relevant things)
- Interviews
- General internet?

Well, I've just finished listening to the one hour long podcast you just posted, and I pretty much was lost in translation for the first half of the podcast, but when it got to the part with the whole gaming design as a career I was really sucked in because damn, that's a good topic. Usually a bunch of people are playing Dungeons and Dragons, or talking about how the newest Nintendo game doesn't cater at all to the hardcore gamers in these current shitty podcasts about video games. Nobody really prods deep past the monitor screen, and talks about the people, the business, nor tells it how it is, but whenever some one brave enough not to be scared of boring the shit out of the fans dives into the complex science behind not just mere video games, but everything related to it in general, it's one less shit stain on the white shirt sleeve. Keep up the good work. That's my fucking opinion.

Also, don't interview any of us...

[AAsama]

Thanks doug. That is pretty much what we try to do.

We will try to interview anyone with something interesting to say, thats pretty much it.

Storytime with commentcode could be an interesting addition, like a five-ten minute segment of terrible fanfic. Should be enough to satisfy and/or kill any interest in finding some yourself..until next time.

[Psychosis]

You could have "How to Play the Class" segment. Grab a mang that is good a whatever class and have him/her discuss how to play it. Like you ask said person questions and what not and they explain how to do it.

[HotPuppy]

And just skip Pyro.

[The Ultimate Doughnut]

Oooh, can I be the heavy?

[HotPuppy]

And Cheese can be the spectator.

I kid I kid!

[AAsama]

thats not a bad idea actually, just need to figure out who actually knows stuff.

I got scout covered, naturally.

[Zaiden]

"So Skee, what tactics do you use while playing Sniper?"

"Shoot. Miss. Rage."

[The Ultimate Doughnut]

thats not a bad idea actually, just need to figure out who actually knows stuff.

I got scout covered, naturally.
Oooh, can I be the heavy?
:3

[King]

I forget who but someone gave me good advice for sniper to shoot for the chin and not the forehead. It registers more.
It was sanji that told me to depend only on cloak and not disguise.

Soldier I would have to say just takes practice until you learn the speed of the rockets so you can lead them right into the target's feet. I'm still not that good at it with all my time played.

[Micolithe]

How to play soldier:

Fire rocket. Lagspike. When the lagspike ends notice that you fired a critrocket directly into three people. Watch them rage.

[Exalt]

I got Demoman covered.

[Skee]

I got Demoman covered.

No you do not.

And why are you fags discussing the tactics in here NOW, we're supposed to be talking about the podcast.

[Bromang]

Spy ish bescht class

[MayuZane]

Spy ish bescht class

Also FUNNEST.

[Sanjiyan]

thats not a bad idea actually, just need to figure out who actually knows stuff.

I got scout covered, naturally.

"This Week on Head Of The Class, we have Gongon discussing how to play the Medic. So Gongon, what do you have for us?"
"Thanks AAsama, we're going to start off with basic survival techniques. As a medic, your teammates work like shie-"
"GET UP GET UP GET UP GET UP"
"Wha-"
"WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP"
"What the hell is going on D:"
"OH BABY NOW LET'S GET DOWN TONIGHT. OOOH! BABY, I'M HOT JUST LIKE AN OVEN! I NEED SOME LOVIN'! BAAABY, I CAN'T HOLD IT MUCH LONGER! IT'S GETTIN' STRONGER, AND STRONGER! WHEN I GET THAT FEELIN', I WANT, SEXUAL HEALIN'!"

Gongonreactionimage.jpg (http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h203/ExtantSanjiyan/1240761882397.png)

[AAsama]

you just spoiled the first show :(

[Bromang]

Also FUNNEST.

I believe we have the spy covered awwwwright

[AAsama]

If someone here could mix up/find a good tune for the podcast, that would be straight-up gr8.

read as: fucking stupid

also i am good at the mecic

[PaintedBlackCloud]

New series next week: How to be unfun with Cavil

[Kash]

I am greetest medic. I also have not played in months :awesome:

[Kash]

If someone here could mix up/find a good tune for the podcast, that would be straight-up gr8.

o_1NIHnV0fE

[Bromang]

What about changing intros ala early Yahtzee

[Далтон]

New series next week: How to be unfun with Cavil

storytime is fucking stupid

hell even comment admits it, and he started the damn thing

[Bromang]

Needs more D.D.E.

[King]

If you did the class tips thing it might be best/interesting to get more then one person/guest to talk about the one class. Allowing each view to be presented and the people could debate why their approach is effective.

Could even branch that into other games, the only example I can think of right now is pokemon team builds but that's lame.

[Vaah]

Why wouldn't we use the mangs theme?
gUKiYKZgvVY

[Sanjiyan]

AAsama do you want music custom made for this or what, because Kerry could totally do a Kickin' Rad Chiptune or something I guess
And so on

[Skee]

PsyE is good at making music

[AAsama]

Yeah something custom would be best.

[Bromang]

d.d.e.

[AAsama]

D.D.E is not custom.

[Cosmic Rico]

I figure a kerry interview would be suspiciously similar to Natalie's Rap from SNL.

I just fell off my chair in hysterics. THANKS MICO.

[Micolithe]

Krowzi motherfucker drink till I'm sick.

[Isengrateman]

I am expressing interest in listening to this podcast.

I also think a live talk show Q&A session would be cool. Like, listeners could message whatever questions or topics they'd like to talk about to the hosts.

[Skee]

When I get back to uni again I could totally do another interview on games design

[Bromang]

D.D.E is not custom.

I know ):

[AAsama]

Me and gongon are gonna try to get a podcast done over the weekend, hopefully we will have interesting stuff to talk about. We will most likely talk abit about Darkfall, seeing as theres been some stuff going on around it lately.

Feel free to suggest topics.
