There was something discussed in the "fact or crap" requiring an image to appreciate. I'll put the image in a spoiler so I won't spoil the "fact or crap" for you.
Spoiler for Fact or Crap
This is the exclusive miniature we talk about in the fact or crap:
Hellgate Info:
You can sign up to try and get in the Hellgate Alpha at:
Also that statue offer is a guaranteed way to get into the closed beta once it starts. There probably will be sign ups as well, but that is a guaranteed way to get in.
Just right click on "Video Game Show" in podcasts and click "update podcast". It will auto-magically download. And that always is the case once I update the feed (which I do right after posting here).
I thought Keith sounded rather creepy when he said sweet to being able to guys in the balls and get a reaction out of them in Stranglehold........great episode by the way.
With my reward of a ham sandwich. I will take it into school, on my first day, and just eat it in class, and if my teacher questions me about it. I'll shout ' I EARNED THIS! ' and continue eating it. But by then, the teachers would of killed me.
( Thanks for the ham sandwich by the way )
Libsyn looks like it's having DNS issues, probably will be resolved shortly.
Unfortunately out of my hands.
EDIT: Yep that's what it is. I was able to get on the libsyn site through the GCN server and here's the support message:
Momentary DNS Misconfiguration
At about 2:30 EST on Thursday, Aug 23, there was a momentary DNS misconfiguration that caused some users to be unable to view the site, or in fact, resolve anything under the libsyn.com domain. The situation was recognized and resolved immediately, but due to the nature of the DNS system, some users have cached the incorrect data, either on their computer, or on the ISP DNS servers. As with everything DNS related, the caches will time out, and the correct data will be received, and we've been told the maximum time this will take is 24 hours. (It's usually much shorter, however) In the meantime, a potential remedy for end users is a reboot of their computer to hopefully flush that local cache. We apologize for any downtime.
DNS updates take up to 24 hours. So should be resolved by tomorrow morning. Although you can try reboot and it might work as well.
I still havn't been able to grab it. Would it be possible if you sent me the mp3 file of the show Chad? It's just since I won't be at the computer for around a week and a few days and I'd like to be able to listen on the plane flight instead of waiting all that time.
I don't know why I haven't listened to this one yet. Just haven't gotten around to it. I'll finally be able to burn through all of the new podcasts once school starts up. VGS has made me like having a commute.
i listen to vgs when im having lunch, we usually go on the field to have lunch so we all just get our ipods out and chill, (in winter we hide from the cold heavy welsh rain!)
well the other day i was listening to the podcast during lunch and someone "tough guy" saw that i was listening the VGs and called me a nerd and all i wasnt in the mood for anything that day so i socked him in the face and he went down when he got back up i think i saw his nosebleeding and he run away. "Dont mess with VGS Listeners."
itunes doesn't store the files. They just ping our RSS feed. In the feed I specify where the file lives.
It's a moot point anyway, libsyn's DNS finally propagated to the people who weren't getting it earlier. Anyways at least I have a backup for the time being.
Because Itunes doesn't host it I don't think.
They just search for an update on the rss feed which points to lybsin which was f'd up beyond all repair, as chad says.
Make that one big post next time or ye shall get Obey's throat punch of DOOM! Yes, I am recruiting you too, Obey, as my young ward. Not in a creepy way, though.
First time poster. Just listened to this and it's good. Really good. On your recommendations I will pick up Bioshock.
Just some random comments:
Ivan needs to talk lower, like a man.
All you guys need to let Phil talk. Or does he just get edited out?
(I know these guys so I have to make fun.)
I thought GenCon had the highest TCG money payout ever for WoW and that was in August not November. I could be wrong though.
The banter on fonts was funny, I just saw Shop Girl (the movie) yes I watched it...but the nerd/hero of the movie says at one point that he is working on a font. Coincedence? I wonder.
Duffman X18 - So you the guy the bought a Zune. Nothing personal, but good luck with that.
