So I'm going to try something a little different. We have two timers currently, (me, AniDragon) so we can do two chapters at once. I want to do two chapters in a week, just to prove we can.
I will keep this post updated with the current chapters assuming this system works.
Currently recording:
MM1 Ch. 8
Seal
MM1 Ch. 9
Touquie
Broan
Mr. Guy
AniDragon
Duff
Currently Post-Production/Last lines
MM1 Ch. 5
MM1 Ch. 6
MM1 Ch. 7

Huh? I'm recording something?
-
You're listed as Darlene...
-
...I'm Darlene...and I thought I already gave you my chapter five lines.
-
Fix'd
-
Thanks
-
I've also volunteered to be a timer, so...
let me know if you need me.
-
I'm aware. Two is a stretch considering what we've already done. I would love to get you started too. But please trust me when I say that you will be informed when we have something for you to do
-
I know you know I recorded my lines ages ago. I'm home for another week and a half so if theres anything you need for me to do or to re-record for chapter 5 or whatever chapter we're tackling next let me know. Or if theres another way I can help. After next week my time is very limited but I should have everything needed of me in.
-
Site is back, post what you've got.
-
Update'd
-
Sorry, didn't see this until now. I'm out of the country, but I'll be back (hopefully) on the 17th. I'll do my best to get it to you by the 18th.

Well our Cassie actor (my favourite actor so far... her accent is just win. *-*) hasn't been on for nearly 2 months and I hope that won't come a problem... anyway,
Just a progress update but I'm almost finished with chapter 15 (which I narrate) so yeah. Became a little harder considering my cold since I'm forced to sniff or risk acting with the feeling of cold nose poo sliding down my lip and it ain't pretty. xD Blowing my nose is a temporary relief but it is frustrating...consi dering I blew my last tissue box and now using toilet paper... or the irony.
I'll move on to the other chapters immediately when I'm done and of course I can help with anything you need. Timing, sound effects, music, bouncer -- I'm the jack of all trades. XD
-
I'm just wondering, is it that I'm getting really impatient or is the project going very very slow right now? I mean, it's like been a week or so and there hasn't been anything for me to do yet.
-
That's typical. The project as it stands:
Chapter 5 is missing sound FX (maybe) and two bit-parts of girls at Darlene's party.
Chapter 6 is Rachel-only, takes me about 10 minutes to edit.
Chapter 7 is Tobias-only, but has a few minor mistakes that Slushie needs to fix (anyone know where he is?)
Chapter 8 is Rachel-only.
Chapter 9 needs to be edited, and needs a news reporter bit. My roommate will do that when we get closer.
-
Yeah, it's normal for this to go slowly. 'Hruun joining gave us a nice jump start back up, but one man can only do so much.
-
Oh wow, I didn't even see Mr. Guy's schedule update. How did I not see this?!
And I thought chapter 9 already had the news report (and a good one at that. I just loved the voice. xD)
-
...so I'm guessing that's out of date...? Since like all of those chapters are out already. And this is going soooooooo slowly. I don't think I had anything to do for weeks. But then again, it is the holidays...

Mr. Guy is doing almost all of the technical work on this project on his own. He put out SEVERAL chapters in a very short amount of time, which is more anyone else on this project has done.
Please stop complaining, Yunyun. Making comments like the one you just did do nothing but hinder the project. >=[
-
I'm sorry, I haven't been doing work. Chapter 10 is ready, but it's a two-character boring chapter, so I want to wait for some more material, then I'll do a few at once. 11 is waiting for Slushie, who has time to record tomorrow and Tuesday, as well as Duff, who either missed this chapter, or never got it to me. On that note, can anyone get in touch with Duff? I emailed him a few days ago with no response.
-
I'll text Duffy. Chapter 11, right?
-
Yes'm

Actually, I am okay with a little nudge now and then just to get the water flowing so don't totally drill into Yunyun for wishing things to go a little faster. =p
-
Well, there is a difference between asking on the progress and straight complaining. However in Yunyun's case, it seemed more like venting than complaining.
-
Hey, yeah, sorry. I don't really hang around message forums much anymore. I spend most of my time on Twitter, Facebook, MSN, and occasionally Skype so it's much faster to get a hold of me on any of those (and e-mail, which is what you ended up doing, lol), though now that this project seems to be picking up pace, I'll make sure to check back here more-often now.
I got my lines for Chap 11 sent in. But since you never got in touch with me about the mistakes in Chap7, I assume they weren't anything major? I recorded that I'd say close to a year ago now (Or even further back), so if you want I can re-do that chapter and you can do a re-release if you think that's a better way to go then what's out there now. I myself haven't listened to it at all cause I hate the sound of my own voice, lol. I'll listen to stuff right after I record the line, before I choose to Save it as a file, but that's about it. I never go back and re-listen to any of my stuff once it actually gets put out there, lol
-
Now I need to get a hold of Duff. Anyone have any idea how to manage that?
-
I just texted Duff again. Will let you know if/when he responds.
-
Text me again? you forgot to last week didnt you jessie...
I'll get on chapter 11 asap. I haven't checked the email on my profile in like a year. PM is probably the best way to reach me.
btw awesome job lately guy, and everyone else, the new chapters sound great
-
Yep, the new chapters really are pretty awesome. Eventually we might even be able to compile the chapters together... oh soo excited! Though still it's always very embarrassing to hear yourself. o_O
Anyways, keep up the good work! I'm thankful for all involved. ^^
-
You think it's embarrassing? I was Darlene. And then I had to scream. As Darlene. And half-bird thing.
THAT'S embarrassing. XD
-
Okay, I admit that is embarrassing since Ax's parts don't really include human onomatopoeia so I don't really have to worry a whole lot about that. Ahh, Ax.. i love that you're not human so you're not subject to the perils of the human attempts to put onomatopoeia into words. Never change Ax. =p
-
Just realised that we're getting close to chapter 17, and thus had to go figure out how to pronounce Godiva and Kinney (shoes). I had Kinney Shoes right. Was apparently pronouncing Godiva wrong.
-
Oh, we're close to chapter 17? Hm, better go catch up on some recording.
-
Guh-dive-uh.
-
Well, we're in the 10s. And last time I thought we had plenty of time before my next chapter, we got caught up in like, a day. So I'm just being prepared.
And yeah, I youtubed it, lol.
-
PM'd Duff 3 days ago. His last active date was days ago.
-
Want me to text him again? He is in school, so I'm sure he's busy and it will probably take a little bit for him to get it recorded. Living in a house with other people makes that stuff hard.
-
I'm torn. I'm well aware of the difficulty of recording at school, but to me "asap" is less that two weeks...
-
It does to me as well, but he lives in a house with a bunch of other college guys. Trying to find a time when you're home without any of them there is probably really difficult. I know that's why I have problems helping with any of the audio parts becuase I live with 6 other people, and it's just NEVER quiet in my house. :(
-
Hey sorry for taking so long everybody. I PM'd Guy about trying to get ch 11 done. Yea I'm busy but I can definitely make some time for this project and I haven't been. I'll try to improve.
-
Watch this space next week
-
What's the status so far?
-
I meant one literal week, Tuesday to Tuesday. I have one more final tomorrow morning, then I'm home for the summer.
-
How'd your final go?
-
Very well, thanks.
Alright, here's the deal: It's summer, or close thereabouts. Hopefully most of you will have an easier time finding time to record. I really want to try for speed this summer, to see how far we can get. There's a voice acting group I follow on youtube that puts out a 10-15 minute episode every week.
I think we can do one chapter a week. Do you all think you could manage that?
I've heard back from all the principal cast except Duff. Anyone happen to know when he's done with school?
-
One chapter a week is fine with me. ^^
Curious but what's this voice acting group? Think I could benefit from it.
-
Except you mentioned you're not a Homestuck fan, so I doubt you'd be too interested in Let's Read Homestuck.
-
Oh, Homestuck. Nah, can't say I am though that's not to say I still wouldn't check it out.
Could link it anyway for those that are curious as I was and wouldn't mind Homestuck.
-
A question: are people reading these threads, but just not having anything meaningful to input? Or am I just being ignored?
And does anyone know where Duff is?
-
yeah, I'm reading. And no idea about Duff
-
Reading. And you're not ignored.
-
Don't worry, I'm paying attention. Unfortunately, all of my parts are finished for this book. I've nothing more to contribute to the project until we move on to the other books.
-
I'm reading just not frequently, same position as Darth
-
Not trying to sound like I'm complaining or anything, but the audiobook project seems sorta dead...Like is everyone busy or something?
Again, I'm not really complaining, just sorta wondering
-
I think they had to stop it for scholastic
-
No, we would've been informed about it if it was. And it isn't dead. Mr. Guy is actually waiting on updates. I'm in the process of finishing up all my lines in fact and was about to post it within a week since I feel so bad that I haven't finished them yet.
-
I exist, we haven't gotten C&D'd, I was waiting on Chapter 12 from Revan so I could update the previous chapters with new Tobias lines, then if I get Duff and Revan's Chapter 13 lines, then I could go on.
-
Well there ya go! A bit of a jab for those people so that Mr. Guy can lead us forward! =D
-
Didn't I send you the chapter 13 lines?
-
So you did. I hadn't converted the Audacity files, so I didn't notice them.
