    Hm I didn't think I would watch the entire thing but I ended up watching the entire thing. Great discussions and good flow of the show. Looking forward to more.

    Although I obviously like the cheers towards me, I have to say we are 4 people. Spread some love for bobby and those nibz from Archaea too! Especially since b1 is the brains behind the show and I'm just hitting the record button ;)

    Love the feedback! If you got any questions or topics hit us up on twitter @NS2SHOWTIME and we'll try cover it for the next episodes. Wouldn't be much of a show without you're awesome support. Thanks!

    Great first episode. The best part of the podcast.... seeing Scrajm and Virsoul's "I'm going to make sweet, sweet love to you, baby" face throughout the entire cast.

    freaking awesome show guys, love the production and effort put forth. was it also edited a bit? hardly any awkward pauses or anything that a lot of new podcasts suffer with, good job

    one thing I would check is the sound levels, the intro/outro music as well as the sample clips were played at a huge volume, and I think Virsoul was a little too loud in comparison to everyone else. I am not sure if there is something that automatically regulates the volume levels so everyone is the same, were you guys just using Mumble?

    can't wait for next episode !

    @Gliss
    Yes, it was edited a bit. Since this was our first run we did the first episode offline to figure out how we do stuff. It was chaotic. But all future episodes will be plain live - no matter how bad we fuck up on the stream ;)

    The sound levels were actually tested by someone watching us on the test stream page....I trusted you flate! :P
    To answer the other question, we use TS.
    And yeah, the intro and outro was edited by me later on, so that was my bad. At about 5 am in the morning I didn't care too much about sound levels anymore.

    Awesome initiative. Really enjoying the analysis of maps and strats. Looking forward to more. Just one thing though, it would be nice to have a list with shortcuts to the different topics in the video discription.

    Was it just me, or did I misunderstand that Scrajm won't be at the Arc v Nxzl finals?

    You misunderstood. Scrajm said "he won't be playing himself" in reference to it won't be arc vs arc. Blind's question to Scrajm was if "he thinks archaea will be a tougher opponent than exertus last time." Blind obviously misspoke, though, and meant nxzl instead of arc.

    ... that is how I understood that exchange, anyway.

    I really enjoyed this - beats having the radio on at work! Thanks all for their outstanding efforts putting this together, and giving us random pubber types something truly inspiring and interesting to watch/listen to about NS2! Very much looking forward to the next instalment! :)

    Cheers
