Haha, yeah, I wasn't really expecting a question on that ;).

So when /is/ the bounty system coming?
Dec 01, 2004 Tyrdium link
You didn't mention SF, though? :P
Dec 01, 2004 Celkan link
I saw the question before Incarnate heard it because the person who asked it asked it in the AIM chatroom instead of PM'ing it to gamesomegael like they were supposed to.

I was surprised SF wasn't mentioned as well.

The file links to an rtsp:// link, thats why I ask. I can't seem to get it to load.
Dec 06, 2004 Beolach link
Fah. I hate RTSP crap. I listened to it at work on a Windoze box, didn't even realize it used RTSP until you mentioned that & I looked closer. I might be able to get a dump of it, but no guarantees...
Dec 07, 2004 Beolach link
Hokay, that was a PITA. Non RTSP evil link here:
[link deleted: see edit below]

It's ~60 MiB, and not too fast upload, so be patient. And please be nice to the link, and I will be taking it down in a few days, as my ISP frowns on how much I use my unlimited internet access. I cut out the first hour of the show, so this only has the interview, and if you want to hear what they think about other Mac Games, sorry.

[edit]
Well, I've taken the webserver down. If you want to hear the interview & can't get the RTSP link from the macradio site to work, contact me and/or yodaofborg (see his kind offer below), and we can get it to you.

You have never played Elite John! You bad man!, visit http://www.spectrum.lovely.net/ and repent!

Ok, so you dont have time, good, means your busy, which is good! heh....

[Edit]

I downloaded it, edit your post when you delete it, if people scream, i will host it...., maybe with 20 meg of erm by the presenter edited out. And you dock by rotating, until you get a docking computer. (and wait till you get the hyperdrive, OMG exploration add on eat your heart out!)
Dec 07, 2004 a1k0n link
How the hell do you dock?!

nevermind, I did it. Whoa, what a pain.
Dec 07, 2004 Spider link
Downloading now :) Thanks!
Dec 08, 2004 danielky link
Is something supposed to pop up on the MacGamer page? It's just sitting there when I go to it. I'm using Beolach's link though. Thanks Beolach!

[EDIT] What's a good OGG audio reader? I don't know how to play it, me and my totally noobish computer skills. woot.

[EDIT 2, disregard all other posts] I just realized this is the same one as on the News page... doh.

When one is playing 'troublemaker', it's not always wise to play by the rules. ;-)

*Waves hands, brings thread back from the dead.*

Did anyone happen to still have the cached version anywhere? (I'm on linux, and can't seem to get the rtsp:// link to work.
(I won't post it at the risk of it getting edited out.)

Thanks,

Heh, I actually deleted it off my computer here @ work just the other day. I'm pretty sure I still have it at home, I'll put up a link again after I get home & find it.

I reencoded it at a lower quality, so it's now 32 MiB instead of 60. Enjoy.

Jeez, that's long.
Mar 22, 2006 terribleCabbage link
Umm. The link's down. Everyone and their dog probably just downloaded it.

(Edit: Ok, just managed to connect.)
Mar 22, 2006 Beolach link
It's 65 minutes long. It's a good interview.

Sorry about the link going down, seems my DSL line hiccuped while I was asleep, had to reset the router. Should be back up now (in fact it seems someone in Australia's downloading it as I post this ;-).
