The podcast is major awesome. I love you.

I loved that. : D

I don't think it was too long, either. It was entertaining throughout.

Heheh, Very well done!
I love it
It's very funny xD
Link and Asci did a great job, and I like the Casual Gamer section.
Some parts were hard to hear, but it's all still really good
great job

I'm currently downloading the 35meg (not via broadband) *sighs* file to listen to on headphones.

I can't believe i didn't do this when i first saw the announcement. Silly really, seen as i'm hoping to get in on some of it if i get hired for anything or my music gets played. xP

Not finished downloading yet but, a big applause and well done to everyone involved in advance. Really looking forward to it now guys. 8)

If you have already read my thread in the "New Member's Board" then you know I actually found ZU by listening in! It was informational and funny at the same time! I won't, I repeat WON'T unsubscribe to THIS one!!! The next one will hopefully be as good! I will be waiting...!

Heya Morpheel Man! =D

It's a great honour for us that you joined this way! xD
A million welcome wishes to our community ^_______^

Next one is going to be fantastic, all things taken into consideration, and we'd love to pick a fun lassie who knows her way 'round ZU and the community to co-host the Cast with our current testosterone sticks :3


also - instead of just writing your feedback here - send us a recording/email with your comments to be read out in our feedback section of the upcoming podcast ^______^

The ZCast was... interesting. O.o

There were so many random parts that kind of flew over the top of my head. On the whole it was pretty good though. The background music throughout was pretty cool. I'm eagerly anticipating episode two.

I just saw this thread today xD I'm downloading it now =]

Hokai, my comments plz.

I LOved the interaction between Connor and Bret! You two worked well together, although I do admit when you "resumed control" after the Hazzcast segment - Connor I can't help but think you over did the coughing sounds somewhat. A little bit when you got "infracted" as well. But on the whole, I loved it <3

Margaret: You get yo' squee-y voice back in there more often!

I thought the music was funky, Jason did noice stuff there at the begining :3

I think that's about all I had to say, but yeah. That's it in a nutshell at least.

(Oh! And the use of injokes here and there amused me )

I could not stop smiling. *Still smiling* I thought it was very good for a first podcast. Here's my random inserts, though I'm not sure it's valid information. Just opinions. If I spell names wrong or something like that, please don't attack me.

The Opening- I was already in peals of grins by this point, but it was well-put together. I'm sure this takes more work than I can imagine, so I appreciate every moment. I did not recognize the theme, unfortunately.

The dedictation- It was extremely heartfelt. I was moved, even though the minute time limit. The simplicity, yet tone of Altamira's voice was very sincere and that made me emotional.

The Awards- Love the background music. *Laughs* Five... hundred years. I really like the improvising. The microphones didn't bother me as they seemed to bother some other people, it sort of gave an easily seen split between the hosts. Would not recommend a list-type of announcement for very often, since it can cause attention to waver. It makes it seem more scripted, which does not give it as much of the "craziness" factor.

Interruption- Like the clear voice. Very easy to understand and did not bother me at all.

Continuation of the Awards- Crickets! XD I loved it. Coooincidence? Just the improvising here is classic.

Future- Wow. Future's voice has changed since I last heard it. I had NO idea what the point of that was. But I enjoyed it either way.

Conspiracy- Entertaining, but didn't really give me much more than a smile. The fingerpints crack made me chuckle.

Cody's rant- Like the accent. Completely wtf. I'd be laughing outloud if I received this voicemail.

Nathan's rant- ... I giggled at the "taking pleasure in internet code" piece. I really don't pick it apart like that. Enjoyable.

Hazzcast- This was not one of my favorite parts. But it was something new after so long of listening to the same guys, so it was refreshing. Tiroth's voice was completely different than I imagined. But the story was moderately interesting. The mike was a little soft, but I could hear it.

Scott- The trumpets made me chuckle. I think this was my favorite part. The singing of it was very... funny, for lack of better word. "Crash the lightbulb under his own awesome" made me spit out my tea in laughing, just because it was so random, along with all the other things in this interview.

Am I correct in assuming there are no scripts at all here? If that's the truth, it was amazingly entertaining. Wonderful first, I hope it only gets better. The hosts make me laugh, which is nice since we all need a good laugh in these days. Asci's evil laugh is bettar. I hate how I find out I've been pronouncing everyone's name wrong. Like Asci. I always thought it was Asssi. Oh well. That's just one of them.

Possible improvements... of course, I'm curious as to whether there's going to be a particular order of any re-occuring "sections" of the podcast, or if everything will be new every month. I think once a month is a good time limit, since the work it takes to put this together is unbelievable. Forty minutes is also a pretty good length, though I think it would work with anywhere from thirty to fifty. The background music is nice for keeping attention, and matches the situations pretty well. Sound effects made manually are a possible input for the future, but not necessary. I'm curious as to whether different hosts will come with or without guests on this podcast or how that will work out. I'm sure a lot of expirementation is on the way. And expirementation is a good thing. *Evil laugh* A very, very good thing. I wonder if this was long enough. I'd say so.

Sum up: Good job guys, all of you, wonderful attempt to alieve your boredom and have some fun at the same time. Looking very forward to the next one, guys.

P.S. I was hoping to hear the word, "sea weevil" in the podcast. It's my favorite word, I think.

i believe *someone* had said that the crickets were as un-funny as could be, but the second i heard lunk say "I was so excited I allmost peed myself" I immediately was like "WTF?" and immagined an awkward silence there to allow for a reflective moment oof "ummmmm... ew". Glad someone liked it!

after having personally listened to that part about a million times in editing, I grasped the story, but I was unsure if everyone else would. seems you got a good grasp on everything we did with the cast, and that's pretty re-assuring.

I LOL'd at that too... and scott has a very cute chuckle.

we in the staff had differing opinions when it came to the music levels and appropriateness, but over all, I just used my radio producer's intuition. as for SFX, there were some in the hazzcast takeover, like I think someone had a toy machine gun, and lots of gasping,,coughing, and the like, but they were too sparse so i had to imbelish.

I'll see what I can do

thanks for the feedback. it was very helpful!

Wolfie is very sad because he cannot finish listening to the podcast, as it only downloading the first minute and a half and said it was finished.

Wolfie will finish listening later on. But overall, it's awesome so far.

Love Link's voice, and Asci's craziness. :3

EDIT: Margar's voice is sey. She has a real voice for radio.

Future's voice is deep and sexy.

Cody's rant is funny and awesome.

Hazzcast kicked ass.

Tiroth has an awesome accent.

Asia's accent is also awesome.

"The Casual Gamer" was awesome.

Loved the ending.

*will send an audio recording of his comments*
