I wanted to get this up quick before I zonked out for another sleep session, and as such I used Movie Maker instead of fiddling with the compressions available in Premiere Pro. Constructive criticism is, as always, appreciated. Webcast 5 will answer more of your questions, and it will attempt to incorporate the video-questions. However, we need more video-questions, so go ahead and record your pretty faces and voices and upload 'em to Youtube. You may feel free to post all of your new questions and video questions in this thread.

We can certainly be acquaintances at this time. Acquiring close, tactile friendship is a slow-going affair with me. I'm peaceful and open to everyone, but true friendship is a long, corkscrewing, tumbling path that's only visible under rare astronomical conditions (and may or may not have anything to do with how many times I make a grilled cheese sandwich on the third Friday in May). But for long-distance, over-the-internet friendship, then of course.

Anyway, massively entertaining, again. "I have to call him up every morning and tell him what colour of underwear to put on." I should write these down and publish an Oak quotebook. I'm beginning to feel increasingly isolated in the World on the basis of my total refusal to ever submit to World of Warcraft. Remember "Titanic"? For TEN years I didn't watch that movie, even as the world slowly went insane around me and it became the highest grossing film of all time. I became one of an increasingly desperate and marginalised group of people, holding out a diminishing hope that they were not just delaying an inevitable flood where the entire world would be consumed by Leonardo DiCaprio's metrosexuality. And finally, to my enduring shame, I gave in, tired of running, tired of fighting. I watched it, even though I knew it would be sht, and guess what? It WAS sht. I became something I hated that day. I sold a little piece of my soul. And now it's happening all over again, this time in the videogame world with World of Warcraft. Perhaps my surrender to these forces of cultural darkness is inevitable after all.

I'm not even sure if I was joking... Should I be concerned? Or a better question is, should the children?! But anywhooooo... after watching the webcast, I feel like ditching FFXI for good and converting to WoW. Might make my friend angry, who is a diehard FFXI/anti WoW fan.

Battle Angel Posts: 171 Group: Members Member #743 Joined: August 13, 2007	@Thrash: Thank you. Oy, and about WoW -- it's great, but the fun part is playing with others. If it gets to the point where you can't play with others (i.e., if you had RL friends who wanted to group with you, or if you had joined a guild), or if it gets to the point where you can't spend enough time to meet your group's expectations, WoW loses some of its luster. For example, I'm probably not going to buy a second month at this time -- school's starting back up (which means I also have to be transporting family members to various institutions -- as in, I have to be wide awake at 5am instead of just finishing a raid and readying myself for bed at 4:30am), and the people I group with are going to be inundated with work as well. I could keep playing, but I'm probably not going to. I'm a lvl 52 mage right now, and I'll probably hit 65-ish by the time the month runs out. That's a good place to pick back up whenever I start up again, if I do. I digress. So, anyway, what I was trying to say is that this force of cultural darkness isn't necessarily inevitable -- the looming shadow may be like a tsunami wave blocking out the sun, but even when it crashes the wave must stop at some point, and that point might be at your feet. ... I have no idea if that made sense -- I've played too much WoW today and my brain is streaming out my ears. @ Member: Heh... If you're interested, get WoW and then send your friend a free-trial. If, after the trial period, he buys the game through that initial account, then you and he get bonuses whenever you Party together. 1) You get to summon each other once per hour (useful if one of you starts off as a certain species (e.g., Night Elf) and the other starts off as another species (e.g., Gnome) -- the running distance between each of these species' starting locations is quite long). 2) You get triple XP for killing things AND for handing in quests. That's the only reason why I'm lvl 52 after only about 50 hours of gameplay (OK, that, and because the one guy I Party with knows the game really well and so we can knock out five quests at a time). However, that triple-XP bonus ends at lvl 60. (Note that you can make several characters and each gets the bonus as long as you two party together. Also note that this only lasts for 90 days -- afterwards it's just regular XP and no special summoning.) @Bebi Goten: Magtheridon is the server, and I'm a lvl 52 Gnome Mage named MacBoom. However, when I do play as MacBoom, I'm only playing with my mate (triple-XP guy) -- it helps to keep our leveling smooth. That'll change once I'm level 60, so you can feel free to keep an eye out for me if you want, then. Doomificator is my lvl 4 Warlock, but as you can see I haven't leveled him yet -- when I do, it won't be with my mate. I don't have WotLK either. Just Burning Crusade. -------------------------- ANYWHO, I've been rather disinterested in the forum as of late. Nothing wrong with you people, I'm just busy having fun being confused about life and pondering what the next step is for me. (Fun Fact about Oak: Though WoW is a fun pastime, I actually use it about 50% of the time to help me focus -- number-crunching has a similar effect on me as classical music does: clarity of mind. In fact, I often solve chemical and algebraic equations just to clear my mind. When I play WoW as a number-cruncher, I focus on as many variables as possible, and then I attempt to correlate them... and then I attempt to manipulate them. I don't know if I'm any good at it, but it's like sandpaper smoothing out my mental processes, and that helps to boost perspective on reality.) I don't just mean that I'm busy questioning the next step for this webcast. I've also been busy trying to figure out where I'm going with life in general. At 20 years of age, I've experienced a lot and yet so little -- and right now I'm in a tangible position to make a lot of big changes in my life. But let's skip the life issues and look at the webcast issues. Obviously I've enjoyed hearing good feedback about the webcasts so far. It's been a pleasure entertaining you people. But right now it's not enough to receive such feedback or get the warm feeling in the pit of my stomach when I know I've made someone laugh or smile. I need to WANT to continue doing the webcasts. And at the moment, I've hit a dry spell in the WANT Department. When did the WANT dry up? It didn't. It merely moved elsewhere. I WANT to work on something different than an impromptu Question & Answer series spruced up with a bit of mania. I'm grateful for all the Questions sent so far. But I don't know how much further I can take the answers with the current layout. And I don't even know if I WANT to continue with a Q&A webcast or even an LAA webcast. It might be replaced with a general webcast -- based in entertainment, but not necessarily targeted to this website and current audience of 15 or so (I'm rounding high). And of course, all of this is highly uncertain and should be taken with 47 times your daily requirement for salt. The only way to become certain is to start messing around with technology and creative ideas. This will take time. I don't know how long I'll be out on hiatus (effectively, I am not going to ask Volchok to join me on this hiatus -- it's nothing against him, it's just a preference of mine to go this alone for at least the time being). I may even release a webcast or two while on this general hiatus if I want to implement any new techniques that I want to hear feedback on. In the meantime, the possible hiatus is just for the webcast -- I should still be around the forum. And of course, all of the webcast threads are still open.
