No really huge notes this time around, since we’re FRIED. Yep, crispy-fried podcast hosts. Still, the important thing is that you get a SnarkCast in a timely fashion, which we’ve delivered.

Sadly, none of the audio from the weekend’s recordings made it (we think whatever weird thing that made Grimmy’s PC play music at chipmunk speed is the same thing that caused the audio to be unusable) but hey – learning experience for next year, when we’ll show you a real snarkcast. :)

Hey there, everyone! Krystalle here, in for Jhaer, who is off doing that real-life thing. (Crazy bastage, out pugging that outdoor instance in this heat?!) Anyway, as I’m guesting in for him this week, I wanted to show off one of my favorite World of Warcraft machinima. Baron Soosdon’s work has always really impressed me, but his combination of World of Warcraft and Portal was particularly well done, I thought. That, and this song by the Victims of Science is awesome. (It impressed me enough that I’ve since made it the opening song I play when I’m DJing somewhere – a calling card, of sorts.)

But enough about my thoughts on the video, here it is!

Also, I’d be terribly remiss if I was doing machinima without mentioning the incredibly wonderful and talented Christina “Romily” Rollins, who has been coming to Dragon*Con for a few years to share some of the best Machinima from around the world with us. Take, for example, this film she introduced us all to last year. While the game featured isn’t an MMO, I think anyone who has ever looked for a group can sympathize with this Pyro.

If you really enjoy machinima, be sure to check out her panels this year! Currently they are scheduled as follows:

Machinima (Cool, notable, and award-winning) – Friday, 8:30 PM, Savannah Room
Machinima (Comedy, off the wall, or as Grim calls it “fart and dick jokes”) – Saturday, 8:30 PM, Savannah Room

Also note, you’re welcome to bring snacks and drinks since this is set up pretty much just like going to the movies. Only we don’t have ushers, so please clean up after yourselves! :D

Hello everyone! It’s time for another edition of the SnarkCast. This episode, we ramble and scramble through swampf and through swumpf, and bring you news about MMOs, because we’re Nice People. (har!) That said, this one contains a bit more cussing than normal, so keep the headphones on if you’re at work or the kiddies are around. Show notes are behind the break.

Perhaps the fad of changing Hitler videos into funny videos has passed. But I don’t care. This one is hilarious–and it isn’t a WOW video! This is even funnier to me because of my continuous losses in Starcraft 2 beta. Everytime I think I’m going to win, a Protoss mothership comes and kicks my ass. Enjoy!

To be honest, the D*C MMO title wasn’t working for us. Well, that and can you imagine what it’s like trying to edit out at least half of what we’re saying? Brutal – especially when you’re dealing with a messed-up hand.

Thus, we opted to reimagine the entire podcast, and have rebranded it SnarkCast. In this, our official first edition of SnarkCast, we discuss D*C MMO bidness, sure – but we also wander across the landscape from MMO drama to just what the heck is wrong with FreeRealms. Add in a healthy dose of Hentai, and you have the first-ever SnarkCast.

Admittedly, the engineering on this one is a bit rough, but we’re still working that out. As always feedback, suggestions, or gifts of chocolate-covered espresso beans are welcome!
