Any better ideas to call it?

I knew that it was a pun on The Rundown, but we ARE talking about coming off a week where we got a new character for the first time in fifteen months...
Ummm...
lulz, no idea myself really?

"The week after"
"Blackadder rocks, Youko doesn't"

I have honestly no idea.
I guess the letdown isn't really awful, but as you said, it is after a GREAT week! And there wasn't much to be let down on, really. Any update is good.
Unless it's a bad new game concept or summat.

You could just call it
"Insert witty episode name here" lulz :lick:

Ehh, I dunno.
The week really wasn't a living hell was it?
Still, "The letdown" is okay, really. It's just the title.

Also, Dawn Patrol wins FOREVER legolastorm! We have had members on the cast twice, as well as the first shoutout!
WOO! *Dances*

...I'm being a jerk. lulz

XD But seriously do you even have your own forum because you'd at least need your own thread here..

But i would consider it a let down to have an item as a Friday update...

We don't have our forum, but are pushing for our own thread. With no post count, so we can be freeeee.

And the item? That is hardly enough to bring the whole week down! I mean, this week wasn't fair on itself. It had to much to compete with. I think Youko should just stick with "The letdown". He does give the average smasher view, and it sounds cool...I guess?

The only good thing was Ike's special moves... i mean Pits final smash wasn't even a good one anyway! but i didn't know that Sakurai's birthday present would come at a price : (

Mindgames sounds cool.

@Youko:
The PAL end is Dec. 9th! Sad that the Basy will end then...
But you're right, 3 months should be great! ANd I look forward to when you get back into school, what with the ideas you have! XD

This week in Who's In.

Donkey Kong takes the Mic and controls the podcast! Diddy Kong, and King K. Rool go for the gold, seeing who's the top dog. Plus some of my ideas for great and unique Assist Tropheys. Don't wanna miss it.

When I was reading the episode 6 preview, I noticed the mention of my name.
I was all, "o_O".

I submitted that thing for a debut in Episode 2, but I guess 4 episodes later doesn't hurt. :)
I hope everyone enjoys listening to me? I forget what I said exactly, and I really hope I don't sound completely stupid. Hehe.

Hmm, since Youko's Offline, I'll show you what should be in the front page, on the first post.

Episode 3 of Who's In is here, and DK took control of this crazy episode. Diddy and Rool are both up, both being in high regard, plus his assist trophey reconmendations.

Okay, not really what should be up there, I just made that up, but thats what this episode will be about, can't wait to hear your feedback on it.

Hey there, listeners!

The episode will be released later this evening, please see the first post for details. I really tried to avoid this minor delay for you all, but I didn't have much of a choice. So I thought I'd be good and let you all know instead of having people become impatient and lose faith in the podcast...

The episode will be 32 minutes long, and I hope you all find it to be acceptable! Despite the letdown in update quality, I tried to only improve for you all!

That's cool,take a rather lack-luster week and stretch it out longer than normal!

Meh, I didn't sound as bad as I thought. It did seem I went on forever though xD
I can't really comment on this constructively, at least not now. When I'm on my own comp I'll post a detailed response. Love your "Youko Unplugged" this week, almost made me cry :p

Though I'll give Sariku a quick critique:
You've improved on the tone of your voice, you sound much more confident.
Diddy Kong is a shoe-in, in my opinion. K. Rool is pushing it, I'd rather have Stanley.
More later, then.

Alright, good entries Youko, Sariku, and egruntz [and tyvm for mentioning Wiseguy's Brawl online thread=my thoughts exactly! ^_^]. And you gotta love the Yoshi Story music, and might I suggest the Fire Emblem theme next time=that song rocks.

i think we need to be warned about people's voices. i mean usually i think everyone is older, especially with their names, and i end up with a high pitched egruntz and sariku voice. then again, i'm probably just used to youko's voice all the time.

anyway, given the week we've had, it was a good podcast youko. good job

off-topic, i still need to play strikers against you youko, but you're never on! play the game!

La la la~ Pointing out tiny flaws~

Fox's reflector isn't a G-Diffuser. Mostly because that's a ship part. (And the G is for gravity)

DK really doesn't change size. (Though due to the angle, you could argue this)

Personal Opinions~

K. Rool is really meh, so I agree with him not getting the thumbs up. Also, people shouldn't act like Sonic is basically in. His chances are not at a shoe-in status, as we have no idea how Nintendo handles multiple third party companies in one games. >_>

Headphones are still a bad idea, even if there is a blocking system. Plus, it's one more thing you need to buy. (Heck, Nintendo's basic stance to online probably knocks them out)

Ugh, too lazy to give a real long review..

School is wiping me out and I don't want to think about things like that..

But is Ike really pronounced like that? ><

It was pretty good though, no less than previous weeks. I don't expect a lot from the podcasts as I am not looking forward to it as much.

- G-Diffuser was a term I had heard someone else here use, and I didn't want to say "Shine Box Thing," so I went with it...sorry.

- Then what DOES Konga Beat do? Cuz I'm judging from the fire-effects on the last picture in that update...hmmm...

- (From Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_characters_in_Fire_Emblem:_Path_of_Radiance) Ike (アイク, Aiku) is the son of Commander Greil of the Greil Mercenaries. The story begins with Ike's last day as a trainee in his father's mercenary company, and follows him as he grows in power to lead a military force for the purpose of restoring an entire nation.

...So I'd assume yes.

Well you could have called it the reflector, but it's just a tiny point that doesn't matter.

The flames on his arms are curious, but they probably just increase his strength. The size in the picture seems a bit inflated, but not very diffrent from DK's normal giant frame.

My thoughts. . .

I think that there needs to be another host so that there could be talking between two or more people. Imo that that would be alot more interesting than one person recapping and given thier opinion on the site plus it would give use different views on the site's updates.

And Sariku seems to be too biased with his "who is in" part.
(But really, what can you expect?)

Oh, and Im pretty sure Ike will be a heavy character. Heavy and slow. . . like Link.

...except a podcast like that already exists: the SmashCast...

I think this setup works - it covers the different relevant topics and expands logically on them. And anyway, this comes out way more often and if there were more than one host, it would take a LOT longer to put together and put out for all of us.

So I'm fine with how it is.

Id say he gives a very good "who's in" part but well... EVERYONE is biased in some way.

But another good pod cast "Masahiro Sakurai i implore you to *do do dooo doo do* ShOW ME your neWS!"

By the way looking forward to Ridley's "who's in" next week!

Also good work on the Yoshi's ending music... Lets see you try OOT melody next week.
