Is any BUG developer / member interested in being on apolyton's modcast (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=271362)? Not that they have invited us, or that I've reached out to them ... no doubt, if we do reach out they will just laugh and say 'rack off'.

Speak... me... no... good... :lol:

I just recorded, but I got a power cut, so I'm recording again in a month or so. One of you guys might be able to come on at the same time. So, yeah - sure, why not?

I PM'd Wouter/Locutus (these people with two nicks are just making life difficult) and here is the reply ...

Locutus,

I ran a poll in our development thread (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=271607) and generated some interest. Please let me know if you want to discuss our really cool python mod on modcast. If you don't, I guess we will not be too broken hearted!

Cheers,

Ruff

Hi Ruff,
Yes, I noticed that thread shortly after you created it :) We definitely have you and BUG on our wishlist of things to cover with ModCast (you specifically were highly recommended by one of the PolyCast hostesses ;)), but unfortunately that list is growing faster than we can actually record shows :D

One of us (probably Tony) will probably get in touch with you to work out the details sometime in the next few months (which could be anywhere from literally tomorrow to 4 months from now, we're setting topics on a show-by-show basis right now).

Hope you're enjoying the show in the meantime,

Wouter

'PolyCast hostesses' is probably KMad (I'm pretty sure Macky doesn't know me from a house of bricks - and mis-spelling her name will just increase the not-knowning factor!). Looks like it is just a wait and wait type proposition! :band:

Woot! I love reading KMad's posts, probably because we have a similarly goofy sense of humor. It would be great to be on the show.

ok, ok, ya got me. I'LL be the Official BUG Spokespholk, okay?

you guys are pushy!

;)

no code / release / translate, no talk :run:

So are you guys interested in tomorrow's recording slot? It's not a great time for me.

tomorrow ... as in Sunday? I am but EmperorFool is away and he will kill us if he misses out.

Well, Garrat has asked if I'm interested (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=280074) in being a Guest. I said "Only if I can drag the BUG guys in too". Not that he gave a date. It seems they record at 1700 (EST) on a Sunday.

Yes, I am interested in doing it. I even have a mic that I think works. What all do we need to set up on our end?

how about july 6th?Well - any takers?

Well - any takers?

Sunday, July 6th (that's a little over a week from now) sounds good to me.

. . . show up on the Sunday we record at 1700 EST.

Will this be done over the phone, Skype, TeamSpeak? Or perhaps are we being flown to a secret location in Fiji? :D

You need Skype and Audacity. You record your local sound on Audacity while chatting over Skype.

Question: Should we have the freeze date being the same date as the Modcast?

are you joining us on the silly modcast? And why not (re the cold code) ... are you thinking that we will spend the time testing?

Probably not going to join in... unless I can turn it into a anarchist show.:p I just know that we're all going to be rushing to get that last fix in... is why I think the 6th is a bad day. Anyway, however you guys wanna do it. Is just going to be you and EF then?

Tony had asked me to appear on the ModCast and I had said that at least 2 BUG people wanted to appear (me and EF). It seems that Tony doesn't listen very well (just ask Wouter) and only I got the official invite. I recorded this about 2 weeks ago and it was released to the 15 or so regular listeners today. Apologies in advance for screwing up people's handle and for anybody I left out, features I didn't push or anything else. :D

ModCast (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=283905) announcement is here - follow the links (assuming they have it right) for the modcast.

Well done. :goodjob: It was both interesting and funny (especially the remarks about red cars :lol: ).
