Firefox users:

I just updated Foxytunes, and guess what?

Update your Foxytunes add-on (or get it if you don't have it) and listen to the show from this page without a download or much buffering. It plays almost instantly, right from this page.

Niiiiiiice!

You know what.... I didn't even consider that you may want the traffic on your site. If you'd like I can delete that Mockduck. Let me know if that's the case.

Either way it's fine, I don't make any money off of hits or anything, and every time the show is played the counter goes up, so it's largely irrelevant where and how you listen. You shouldn't need Foxytunes to play the show straight from the link, most people's browsers will have some kind of referenced audio player. But Foxytunes is pretty nice and gives you a nice set of controls.

OK, good. After I thought about it a bit I felt bad, so I'm glad to hear it.

As for playing straight from the browser, it never would before. I always had to follow your link to the site to listen.

What last weeks episode was nothing but a 2.5 hour long hate rant? I can think of roughly 6 min of last weeks show that had nothing to do with ranting about the state of the game(shameless self plug). That rollinghill on the other hand really needs to say something nice every once in a while(inside joke).

Great show this week Jerry. The new quests that were "leaked" sound cool.

No segment this week. I think I am going to shoot for every other week, maybe.


I was commentating on the listener that didn't like episode 154 aka rant-fest

[Gratch]

Mmmm... podcastityness.

Hey Mockduck, you know what's coming in DDOU Update 4 or 5? Srsly? All that? Yeah... we don't know either. Other than 4 is in QA and 5 is in development.

So here's the plan...

Tell Tolero you want another ask the devs to complement them on the day/night lighting and to talk about ski jumping games and other such stuff she'll think "Hey, I can talk about that."

Then, once she's on the other end of the podcast, break out the Mom's Guilt-trip Handbook and put down the squeeze until she spills forth all beans and possibly details about upcoming Updates.

Then, if she fails to mention Half-Orcs... explain to her how each day without half orcs in DDO, a puppy/otter/whale/kitten/nun dies.... somewhere.

K... thanxs.

Hah! I'm sure that would go over great...it's be like improper military-style interrogations, where the person in the spotlight starts making up answers to get out of there:

"Tolero, will Update 4 have Gnomes?"

"Uh, sure!"

"How about half-orcs"

"Yes, but only half of them."

Besides, I make half-orcs all the time! All you need to do is go into the Cerulean Hills with a vorpal blade....

You'll have to take kittens off your list. Sorry. Tarrant already has that covered. See the sig.

I want Half-elves, because I want to finally be able to roll up a character without a con penalty that does look like they hit every branch down while falling out of the ugly tree

Actually, that would be more like a 90/10 Orc...
