Episode 23: Eww that smell

Yes, we promised not to use song titles awhile ago, but this one just fit. In this episode, we do one final batch of Gencon 2013 interviews. We still have a few left, but those will be spread out over the year. One of the big items in this episode is the chance to win $2000 at Square Shooters, the guys that brought you the dice that have the playing card suits on them. Be sure to listen to that as well as head over to their website to find out more details. We are still working out the details for a video and please be sure to send us your response for our At The Table segment. The question for October is: What game do you play to get you in the mood for Halloween?

At the Table: Send us your answers

As we said in Episode 22, the segment we do called 'At the Table' was liked by the listening audience. Normally, Marty will ask a question each month at the Queen City Game Club Meetup and get audio responses and I have used an online forum to get written in responses and then just read them during the podcast. What we want to try for October is to see if anyone would be willing to send in audio clips to be included in the podcast at the end of the month. We will post a question, you record your answer and then send it us in either MP3 or WAV format. Marty will then use his mixing talents and put it all together. Answers don't need to be long, matter of fact, 15 seconds should be long enough. You can state your name (if you want) then your answer. So, lets give this a try shall we?

Question for October: What game should be at the table to help you get into the Halloween theme?

Submit your audio recordings to rolldicetakenames@gmail.com

Thanks in advance and hopefully this will be the start of a recurring segment on the show, or it might be the last time we try this depending on the response. It is all up to you. No pressure.

Episode 22: Survey says...

The Cool Stuff Inc contest has come to a close and thanks to everyone who took the time to either join our BGG guild, do an iTunes Review, or fill out the survey. If you did each of those, thank you three times.

Congratulations to Traci Weiland, the winner of our drawing. Over in the BGG forum, we got a post going to help Traci figure out on to spend that money, so if you are so inclined, give some helpful advice but she has decided on Memoir '44 but sure the mind can be changed.

Marty and I are still reviewing the comments received and all the feedback is really helping us structure the show in the future. So in this episode we discuss Marty's experience at Dragon Con in Atlanta,  the survey results, and and interview with Patrick Connor of Arcane Wonders.

Episode 21 continues the Gen Con coverage with various interviews that designers and producers were kind enough to give me. And let me again say sorry for calling Mr. Buonocore by the incorrect first name. I do not know why that was stuck in my head, but boy did I blow it.
