I was kinda bothered after recording thinking that I talked so much. I think that after a while I tend to get very repetitive and fumble over words. I'm glad someone found some good in that though. I've already got my Rock Band mic as a better alternative until I can snag a nice Logitech headset with a boom mic.

I still have an old Logitech PS2 USB mic that I originally got for WoW ages ago. It has served me very well for a long time.

Well, since this thread seems to be dying, I'm definitely willing to participate again. I'm down to record pretty much whenever. Well, I have to study today for my exam tomorrow. Of course I have to become inebriated after said exam. Other than that, any time is good.

Just some general suggestions as always.

I think we should record in smaller chunks, perhaps do like 15-20 minute sessions of recording. And then a short break. One makes it easier for the person editing the podcast, but also gives you folks time to discuss what going to talk about next. Maybe get some notes/find links or whatever in case everyone draws a blank.

Also since, there were some minor technical issues, could potentially help to alleviate them.

Another thing, I think there should be an intro and then an agenda run-down before the theme song.
Like Hi my name is X, and X and X and this week we will talk about Y,Y and Y. Theme Song... and then Welcome to Nerds on the Rock, and go from there.

As for naming suggestions,

I believe originally was like, On The Rocks, Survey Says and On Tap

On The Rocks is taken since name of the podcast haha

So let's see,
we can still use Nerds on Tap for the news portion.
And will think

See if you can get your musical wizard to do really short (a couple seconds) jingles for each segment.

itunes placeholder until I have time to do something better.

The final will probably be something like this with items in the cubes such as a controller, a superhero or comicbook, and.....any ideas for how to depict movies/tv?

Use your Rock Band mics people!

magus113 · 04-23-2010, 10:56 AM

I like it! The other idea sounds pretty awesome too.

I love the banner right now, but curious what else he has up his sleeves.

Anyhow, Keaton may or may not be around this weekend, he'll let us know later. So we may need 1 or 2 people to fill in this week.

Anyone game-d?

Topics of choice ATM is going to be Video game Cartoons and Marvel vs Capcom 3 roster speculation.

I'm not gonna be able to record unless it's like, Sunday. I'm out of the house tonight and I have a Porcupine Tree concert tomorrow.

Teuthida · 04-23-2010, 05:39 PM

How about-- yeah, I suppose not...

What? Why?

BreakABone · 04-24-2010, 01:48 PM

So how does Sunday afternoons for recordings for everyone sounds?

I mean it should be late enough in the day that if you had too much fun on Saturday, you've recovered.

And early enough that you don't feel the sting of Monday mornings coming.

And it also gives us a clear idea of where the week went with news.

I might have to redownload my Skype recording app, I left my laptop charger at work because I'm a genius like that. Might as well do that now.
