RoundUp 047 - Sacrifisation

[Cynicaster]

And hearing that woman's voice saying "no, no no no no" and other things like that never get old. I wonder if she (or he??) still listens to the show?

I love audio drops in talk shows; repetition somehow makes them funny, which is contrary to most types of humour. Who is that woman anyway?

Too bad Socal didn't fall on his posterior.

Maybe if somebody made a Harry the Fairy joke he would have?

I must say, props to UKMike for managing to record such an intimate moment from UKDerek before the top 10, you either had some help, or need to go and bleach your eyeballs

The keen eared among you may notice the deliberate mistake again with Guinness Gaming Records this month.

...and you re-used the Guinness Gaming Records vocal track for Gaming Trivia this month as well ;-)

Who is that woman anyway?

Diane Sauer, pinball repair expert, who sent the RGR crew a long segment of her own, mostly entirely disagreeing with their picks for top 10 best pinball innovations.

Just listening to the news segment now... sorry I couldn't be there (along with my "buddy" the Deaf CD Thief).

Anyway, Scott, I'm surprised you guys didn't really seem to get the joke about the 8-in-1 multi-cart submission. I sent it in on APRIL 1st (April Fools Day). It was meant to throw you for a loop with the "multi-cart" reference. Although as Scott pointed out, it could actually be useful in transporting your game collection items.

Anyway, great podcast once again! Loving it!

On spectators tifos in football involving Pac-Man, this is a photo report on one done for Danish team (Brondby) on an international match against Dutch Ajax. And it is actually an animation. No YouTube of this it seems.

Maybe hard to see, but they have pacman on a large transperant sheet that they move along and over the spectators each holding a small bi-colour sheet. The spectators turn their sheet in sync and all in all you get, or try to have, an animation of pacman eating Ajax.

On the return match in Amstadam, the Ajax supporters had a respons (also shown in the report). Which is kinda cute. Although at a smaller scale to say the least.

Haha! I wish there was video of it.

Somebody must have that on a phone at least.

What a great show.
I found it interesting that there is only music during the Guinness Gaming Records and Gaming Trivia segments.
I really like playing Donkey Kong II and have played it a lot at California Extreme and will be playing it at Funspot during my visit there.
According to the Dragon's Lair Project, it looks like the creator of Donkey Kong II is Jeff Kulczycki.

I found it interesting that there is only music during the Guinness Gaming Records and Gaming Trivia segments.

I plan to change it up a little in the coming months and put words into those segments again.

We'll see how it goes.
