VirginWorlds Podcast #135.1Mon, 8 Dec 2008 03:00:00 GMT [download/play]
Step 1: Record a nice podcast that you're really happy with. Step 2: Save the audio file. Step 3: Open podcast in audio editor. Step 4: Have an issue with one of the audio processing plug-ins that seems to clear out the audio. Step 5: Recognize this issue, as it has happened before and decide to re-start audio editor. Step 6: When asked if you'd like to save the now empty MP3 over the old one, click "yes". Step 7: Curse vigorously and hang head in shame. Step 8: Record a brief "I'm an idiot podcast as punishment."

'Oh gosh.' by FarSpace Submitted on 2008-12-08 05:36:53 CST I'm just glad you will be making another one. So that's cool
That reminds me. When I record or write something down it leaves my head, so if it gets deleted or lost, it's gone, that's a good thing though, because it makes room :)
'D'oh!' by Teppo Submitted on 2008-12-08 13:57:05 CST I'm sure a great many podcasters have done similar things XD
Take another 10days off? ;D
'Game Question' by rikoneill Submitted on 2008-12-08 14:27:18 CST Hi Brent - I have a quick question - not sure if you'll have time for it in your re: editied show.
I'm looking to upgrade my PC finally this festive season and am currently spoiled for choice re: games. It's been so long since I had a decent enough PC to run many of the newer games smoothly (my last big MMO was SWG back in the day).
I really want a game that I can adopt and that will be mine until the release of the Old Republic MMO - just wondered if you had any thoughts? Hacking and slashing for loot until the release of Old Republic doesn't really float my boat - but what else is there out there that goes beyond this?
As far as I can tell Conan and WAR have failed to deliver very much that's new - and I haven't heard of a game in a while that has "social interraction" (Beyond PvP or grouping for quests) any where in its "About the game" blurb.
Would really appreciate your thoughts. Cheers

I can imagine the frustration. But hey, maybe take 2 will be twice as good.
'I feel your pain...' by smush Submitted on 2008-12-08 17:51:44 CST I don't think we've ever deleted an entire podcast recording before, but we have had to go back and record whole segments because some moron forgot to turn his mute button off.
I won't name names here...
me.

'You have a Mac book' by Dathmar Submitted on 2008-12-09 19:30:11 CST ...and you aren't using Time Machine ?
Steve Jobs would be cursing you if he knew !
I bet you were using that other OS
...time for people to add to the support for VW so we can get Brent a Wireless Time Capsule.
