Setherick's avatar scares to poop out of me...that being said. Thanks for all the advice. I haven't had a problem since. I don't understand why but even with a 30 minute auto-save feature enabled, Cakewalk can't seem to record more than 90 minutes or so without deleting it once stop is pressed.

   Audacity, being the amazing piece of software that it is, has not encountered such problems. Now I've got more AP's than I know what to do with. I don't have a fan base for my site so I can't wait 'til Ross get's to community site up and running.

   P.S. Ross, is there any resources you need from the community the help facilitate this process?

I'm listening to our newest AP... I've realized I have no podcast etiquette:

GM: describing the church
Me: (to player 2) "How's the wine?"
P2: "Good, what kind is it?"
Me: "Comes in a box, who knew"
P2: "What box?"
Me: "Kinda like a juicebox, but for alcoholics."
GM: description ensues.

I'm a winner.
In all sincerity though I'm dying to let you guys hear them. We're working on our site in our spare time.

Watch an old school nerd sperg out about dice for 20 fucking minutes

Youtube at it's best...
     
     It's funny how the players around my table debate on the issue of dice vs player randomization. It's unfortunate, however, that it turn's out that my PK (Player Killer) isn't so much an embodiment of my omnipotent power as the master of dungeons as much so as it is my ability to find thrifty deals on cheap sweat shop dice.

I've got the mic suspended over the table to reduce dice clipping and exactly as the honorable Tadanori Oyama stated: Levelator

Just registered my SoulPal account... are we talking full soul? I'd like to go halfsies if it's not a problem. I'd offer sacrifices but I've promised those to the pit of the cathartic lobster.

An unlikely band of adventurers...

We've all heard it before, but why?

I can't find a damned reason for these bastards to care about each other and neither can they. Even when one's head is on the executioners block.

What are some good methods of intriguing these players to group together?

That's happened to me in Audacity on OS X. That also happens because of computer issues - memory runs out etc. That's another added bonus with using a digital recorder that goes straight to a memory card - it will record without crashing.

Welp. That sucks. FML. Hopefully this won't be a consistent issue. I might just have to rob a best buy to get my damned podcast released.

I want a Zoom H4 now - it has XLR inputs. WHY CAN'T I STOP OGLING AUDIO GEAR

This is starting to sound a lot like the Bates9000 bit from The Onion Movie

Well like I said I got my Samson Go Mic, the quality is amazing, last night I begin to record my D&D 3.5 campaign for the first time. 5 1/2 hours later, I realize that Cakewalk has selectively chosen to record 2 hours and 12 minutes of the game. Even though we all saw that Cakewalk was recording the end of the game, it doesn't exist. The moment I pressed stop 3 hours disappeared.
Fuck Cakewalk, I'm switching to Audacity for everything.

I bought a zoom h2 before I left for Orlando to work at Disney World.  When I head home early October, my friends are all anxious to game again with me, so I get the feeling a lot of content will be turning out from that.
Before I left I recorded our character creation session of Dust Devils where we basically explained the rules to each other, and then our first session where we struggled to understand said rules.
We always have a wicked fun time with InSpectres though, and I want to be able to share the awesomeness with you guys.

Damn, I'm jealous. I want an h2 so damn bad.

I'm truly glad to hear you had that much fun trying a new game. It's getting me excited for the one-shots I've got scheduled.

I would like to second Paprika and recommend a series by Satoshi Kon, Paranoia Agent.

Paranoia Agent is amazing... until the writer went insane, now I'm permanently cross-eyed. Also just for Cody, I think you should watch Golden Boy.

I'm not sure if I'm hearing things or not, but in New World game 12 about 2 hours and 24 minutes into the game does Tom say "This is where Joss just smiles at you, looks at the character sheet..." Was he implying that just like Joss Whedon, Ross loves to get his characters really involved and then murder the fuck out of them?
