Ah yes, one more thing.  I've been considering the concept of posting clips on Youtube.  If anyone thinks a specific segment/section is particularly good, pass it along and we can start this.

I always like the feedback on the podcast; it keeps it from feeling narcissistic.

For the podcast, I'd like to see ideas on how to infuse more personality into it.  While it's gotten pretty solid, as is it in many ways comes across as "just another gaming podcast."  Not inherently a bad thing, but I think we can do more.

Each of the participants has an abundance of personality.  I mean I don't want to leave anyone out, but each of you are already so far ahead in terms of your own thing that you don't really need to change anything.

I'd perhaps profer that you can skip the areas that are cliche in gaming podcasts in which you are not so great (like Now Playing).  The more in depth sections of the podcast are the best.  Like the discussions in the last podcast. Or start a "Thread of the Week" section that highlights the topic rasied in the most active thread of the last 7 days.

lol ^

The problem with now playing is that we almost are never playing the same thing. One person talking about a game isnt that fun, I much rather have a discussion or debate with someone else on that game. And i feel it should be a new game, like discuss the big new game of the month. Like when Punch-Out or Infamous hit we should have more than one person who played it on to actually discuss it.

Well that's precisely the point.  As is, the only recurring themes are Now Playing, Wish You Were Playing, and News.  News is a given for the site, and I like the nature of What You Wish You Were Playing.  Aside from that, I'd like to see some branching out.

We did actually start doing the forum focus, but with the change in hosts/timing it's kind of gotten lost in the shuffle.  It needs to come back.

We're within 12 hours of the podcasts with nobody commiting and no mention of times.  I suppose expect the usual time.

No podcast's for me anymore.

Last time I already had problems hearing you guys and we had to restart. I will be only holding you guys back. 

And besides HapticMaster's do not build control systems themselves.

We were spread across Canada, Mexico, Holland and Australia.  The problem, if anywhere, was with Skype keeping up.  And once we get consistently reliable with the individual recording, we'll be looking into other services anyway.

Today I heard GG's voice in Animal Crossing, so I know he is not a mute. He has no excuse, get your ass on one of these podcasts.

It think it's fair to say he's just not interested. If GG actually wanted to be in the podcast, he would've done so by now.

I doubt I'll be in another one myself. It was certainly fun, but it's really not my thing. I vastly prefer writing posts where I can take my time to gather my thoughts/opinions, and do any necessary research before hand. Podcasts don't really allow for that much.
