I am very surprised Thomas Biskup interview didn't showed up among the most popular episodes.

I am very surprised Thomas Biskup interview didn't showed up among the most popular episodes.

The stats are only since the podcast began and all his fans are from 1995...

[Z]

Then why did JADE get such a very high place at ROTY 2011 despite being not playable yet at that time (IIRC)? Fans of Thomas Biskup are still numerous and very powerful. Maybe the interview was not advertised on ADOM-related sites?

[Darren Grey]

It was - I posted on the ADOM forums, TB posted on his blog and his Facebook status.  Perhaps it shows that the RotY results were heavily skewed by some persistent pollers.

Love the show. I've been wanting to post this for a while but I've always thought better of it because I don't want to be a downer. But I have to do it. Your show is way to good to have such bad audio quality! I listen to over 20 podcasts, and while you guys have amazing content you easily have the worst sound ever. I honestly can't understand what you guys are saying sometimes.

Again, sorry to be a bummer. I really do dig the show.

[Darren Grey]

Yeah, we know, sorry   Skyping across 4 continents is pretty bad for the audio, and everyone has different mic qualities.

We can try mumble and see if it helps.

[Darren Grey]

I tried getting mumble set up but wasn't able to get the server working on Windows.  Whole programme is set up towards Linux users it seems.

[ido]

oh we already have a server set-up for the roguelike dev chat channel, we can add a room just for us there.

[Darren Grey]

Well hot damn, let's do that then.  You want to sort it out?

[ido]

it's all sorted, we can use this for tonight's episode.

[tjg92]

Maybe you can do a pledge drive to buy better microphones or something

Given the depressing gender ratio mentioned at the beginning of the new episode, I think it would be cool to try and round up some female panelists to talk about women and roguelikes.  I don't recall there ever being a female guest on the show, and it would certainly be a shame if the "show about girl gamers" was the only occasion for such, but it wouldn't be a bad place to start.

[Darren Grey]

Yargh, so there be a new ep:

Topic is designing for non-roguelikers, relating to a recent thread on RGRD.

Also I forgot to post in this thread about these previous eps:
