Live From the Nar Shaddaa Lounge, Episode XVII!

(that’s seventeen. Holy crap, we’re legit or something now)

7 PM Pacific/10 PM Eastern, 5/15/2012

HEY KIDS! We’re back for another two hours of live SWTOR talk, news and commentary. Podcasts? Pfft. We do it LIVE, every week on Shoutcast, for you! Tune in at Split Infinity Radio!

Join your hosts- myself as Cyclometh, SirPsyko and Miragel as we explore the light side and the dark side of SW:TOR Sadly, Gandolfini can’t join us this week because his computer ate itself, but we’ll have him back next week!

What’s up this week? Read on!

TOR Top Four

The top four stories as we see them this week- or just the top four things we think are the most interesting!

  • Patch 1.2.4 is out!
  • Community Q&A May 11th
  • Yet another Weekend Pass
  • Massively interviews James Ohlen about the 1.2 PvP changes

The Gaming Bin

In which we venture into other areas outside of SWTOR… topics vary but they’re always going to be relevant to your interests!

This week, we talk about… Diablo 3! And Jimer just got Minecraft. Pray for his soul.

Research and Development

We talk about our favorite feature ideas! What would be the coolest feature to add to the game? We give our thoughts in this fun segment.

Dood’s Drink of the Week

Our weekly silliness- cocktails and plugging our friends, stuff we like and cool things all around. May or may not be SWTOR-related. At the very least, you’ll hear another great cocktail recipe from The Nar Shaddaa Lounge’s very own Matt “RumDood” Robold.

  • A Mission Builder- Would that not be the coolest thing ever?
  • Story vs Grind- more of the former, less of the latter, please! How can BioWare do this?
  • In the Community Q&A, there was discussion of a Mentoring system. How should this look and what should it do?

What Is It?

The Nar Shaddaa Lounge is a weekly live broadcast on Split Infinity Radio- the station that’s By Gamers, For Gamers (http://siradio.fm). The show is supported by TOR guild The Church of Alvis, the home of the drunken and vengeful.

You can tune in with any Shoutcast-compatible client, whether Winamp, VLC or Windows Media Player or a ton of others. You can tune in on your iPad, Droid, iPhone, or other mobile device too!

Remember to tune in at 7 PM Pacific time on Tuesday nights at http://siradio.fm

NOTE: The Nar Shaddaa Lounge is not strictly an adult broadcast, although there is content that is for adults, such as cocktail recipes and there will be some occassional off-color language or music played. Listener discretion is advised. The Nar Shaddaa Lounge and Split Infinity Radio do not encourage underage or irresponsible drinking, and if you do, we’ll send Holy Alvis to crap your buffet and kick your ***.

The recent hiatus

Those of you who follow the Lounge closely may have noticed that we had a bit of a break in our content- especially Friday and Saturday evenings. That was because Jimer, the main host and DJ for the shows, lives in Olympia Washington and the recent snow, rain and ice storms went pretty much right over his house- apparently living a mile from the state capitol wasn’t enough to keep his power from being out for a week and his Internet access out for about eleven days.

However, he’s back and ready to rock, so thank you for your patience!

Slaughter Saturdays are dead- long live Super Saturday!

Hey there kids, Jimer aka “Cyclometh” on air here. We’re looking at how we put together the shows for you here at Alvis Radio, and have decided that Slaughter Saturday just didn’t work well- the day after Flashpoint Friday, it just kind of felt… contrived. So, we’ll be keeping Flashpoint Friday and and Slaughter Saturday becomes…

Super Saturday

Every week at 8 PM Pacific time (note the time change!) I’ll be on the air with music, commentary and some kind of live event- whether it’s the Alvis vs Unrepentant PVP match, guild initiation, server-wide World Boss hunts or something else silly and fun, you can bet it’ll be here.

Hope to see you there!
