Who is ready for a Boring Conversation?

By shmitty, in Star Wars: Armada

Tune in later today at 6:00 pm PST (2:00 GMT) for a new Armada podcast/show/hangout/thing called Boring Conversation Anyways.

@BiggsIRL, @Madaghmire, @Ardaedhel, and myself will be on a live streaming Google Hangout talking Armada. We're going to record the Hangout and post it so you can listen in later, but what will make this show unique will be audience participation. There is a chat as part of the Hangout and we will be watching it so we can answer your questions and respond to comments. We're thinking of it as similar to a radio call-in show.

We'll post a link to the Hangout in this thread later today.

Today we'll be introducing ourselves and the podcast, touching on our regionals experience individually and also looking through some of the overall data, and then taking questions/dodging barbs from the peanut gallery, e.g., the Open Forum segment. We may also touch on the Chewies if we get time.

A pity you guys are doing this today instead of later this week. I have some interesting ideas under development that I haven't had a chance to write up, mostly revolving around a somewhat strained comparison to actual naval tactics, and what a battlecruiser in Armada might look like. (Sue me, I enjoy that KDY lets me run wild with customs ideas.)

This is only the first of many (as long as we don't just crash and burn)... Show up next time instead, and throw it out there then!

I intend to, and also intend to put here, though that might shift the conversation onto the forums. I do plan to try to tune in today too, though we'll see how that goes. I may end up needing that recording.

Now I'll finally find out how to pronounce Ardaedhel, at least if he is introduced as such...

I believe we are using our given names. For some reason no one wanted to use my handle in conversation.

You should get Bail or Norse to hop in. That would be fun :D

If this goes well, I could absolutely see us pulling in guests to discuss specific topics on future shows.
