Actually there were several cuts. John alluded to it on his SUWT post on his blog that there was really only one out-take that made the show. The fun stuff stayed on the cutting room floor. I'm actually still on Live Test until they take it down. I'm having "issues" getting my pre-order code to actually stick to my account, but I don't actually plan on playing for a few months, which I stated at the end of my 'wall of text' (sorry lol) post on AoC. It kinda sounded like a lot of the bloggers were doing Wiccana though; I will definitely be keeping an eye out on which servers the majority of the bloggers play on so I can join them at the end of summer.

I didn't seem like you got cut at all. I mean, from what I have listened too, you should be the new co host lol. Oh, I picked up that evil game AOC. What server are you on?

I was originally going to record an intro as if I were making a PA to the passengers, but then I figured that I typically avoid talking about my job, and as much of an attention whore as I can be, I don't really want to draw attention to it if that makes sense? So I skipped it. Maybe if I get invited back someday I will.

Stupid class quests, why did they listen to Sony on that? Darren? You there? Darren? I'll have to go get this one when it's available. :) I'd probably giggle a lot...

Either I was being way too hard on myself or Darren is a god-like audio engineer and fixed most of it. Listening to me speak, I thought it was pretty obvious I was nervous though. I could hear my voice shake a bit here and there, and all the um's, uh's, and tangential turns that I know better but fell victim to nonetheless. But... <b>is that what I sound like?</b> OMG! I guess on the other hand, I act and pretend (I'm told it's denial but they don't know what they're talking about... *cough*) that I'm younger than I actually am, but damn, I sound like some little punk kid. LOL Anyway, glad I didn't lose all my hair or throw up my innards stressing over this. All in all, it was nowhere near the disaster I'd feared. I cringed in fear the whole time, but… it’s not bad.

I'll check to see how spaztic you really are lol. Don't worry about it, only a couple thousand people listen to it, its not that many. ;) A friend of mine has already clued me in on some of his early AoC experience and it doesn't sound too bad. I'll probably pick it up this week. Its not like I haven't bought a game before and only played it for a few weeks then stuck it away some place, command and Conquer 3 is a good example of that. So, I'll be Conaning it very soon. Well, its out and I’m gonna load it on the pod for the ride to work. I’ll check to see how spaztic you really are lol.

I thought it was just an idle threat, go figure. I've been stressed to the point of near throwing up all day over last night's spaztastic performance of mine. Darren emailed us and said the show's all edited and ready to go, and that it's a good show, so I will take that to mean that I've been mostly edited out of it! :???: I was going to write up AoC tomorrow before I report, but I'm still wound up (no idea how after barely sleeping, commuting up to work then a nearly 14 hour duty day) so I'll get started on it... right now!
