Yeah that was one of the problems I was running into. I didn't want Alex to constantly interrupt the flow of conversation with scraps of narration here and there. It looks good in comic form, but doesn't sound as good on audio. Thus I kinda grouped some of the narration together, breaking it up where I felt it was appropriate.

It gets even worse when Ryan and Alex are talking to eachother in the middle of someone else's conversation. It's not coherent when you do it in proper comic order which means that I'd either have to rearrange the order of dialogue or both dialogues happening at once.

I have an idea. It is a silly idea that requires more work.

Have two audio tracks for those comics. One with the characters talking normally, one with the narrator(s) talking over or interrupting them.

Hey, some sacrifices have to be made when translating a purely visual work.
Hey, the comic seems to be updating kind of regularly. Maybe we should vote to spread the word.

It's funny but I actually considered doing just that. But as I'm doing this, I'm starting to realize that's not a plausable option.

First off...yes it is too much work to be done...and more work means it'll only push back the release date for the Captain SNES audio...(Release date? What release date?)

Second...the narration dialogue doesn't match up with the story dialogue the way it does in the comic panels...unless you enjoy long pauses between Alex + Ryan's discussion.

I'll post more reasons as they come...but there are times I might have to take liberties with the pacing of the narration, just so that it flows better.



Now it's time for a homework assignment.

I need music from these songs...Bonus points for instrumental (because they're the songs Gomez sings)

Addams Family Groove by MC Hammer
Midwest Swing by St. Lunatics
Left My Wallet in El Segundo by A Tribe Called Quest
It Doesn't Matter by Wyclef Jean
Because I Got High by Afroman

Whew! You don't wanna know what I had to do to find out the names of all these songs!

Well boy howdy, you know I hear there is this fascinating thing, called the Internets. Made by some guy called Al Gore? Well now, I hear there's a lot of things on there that you can find. Mostly porn, but there's other stuff too!

See, there's this program called Google. Well, shucks, I don't reckon I understand how it works proper, but here, lemme give you a link to an instructional video. Lesse if that sends you on the right track. Works like magic, it does!

Happy internettin', slick!

FZ's impression of a scandinavian woman is always confusing. And yet, so right.

Ha ha! You're a class act, that you are!

I'm not sure which is worse, the fact that your helpful internets link was a thinly veiled attempt to tell me to find it myself, or the fact that I already found these things before you "revealed" to me your sage advice...

Oh man! Congratulations on figuring out how to use invisitext! See? YOU CAN DO IT IF YOU ONLY BELIEVE.

Also, I'm pretty sure that nothing said was 'thinly veiled' in any sense.

Careful Teach, if you fight with FZ and manage to strike him down, he'll become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

Right...umm...serious mode on: Which one is FZ? Is it Gnarl? Cuz if it is, I should let you know, he's the one who started it.

In all seriousness, I could use a hand every now and then. I don't mind that people don't think I should do this, or didn't like what they saw of what I did post...but what I don't need right now is a troll messing around with me.

I already got my hands full with voice recording and arrangements, having to look for music is going to be a pain in the ass and I need all the help I can get. Since I wasn't able to get any voice actors here, I figure I could at least get a little help with music and SFX (specifically the video game types). Is that too much to ask?


On another note...Jesus, everyone's post number is so high! I mean like the tens of thousands. How many years have you guys been in this forum?


And finally...Another question...anyone who knows it feel free to answer. Was there any particular tune in mind when the song "Ode to that Smelly Back-Stabbing Son of a Bitch Cecil" was made? Because the one I came up with...well...I dunno...

About as long as you have, according to your "Joined on" date.

That was literally about as early as the forum opened up... it was around before that, but only for Knight.

He's not on his computer, so he doesn't want to log in on an account with PHOENOMINAL COSMIC POWER and accidently leave it logged in for some random shmuck.

Sounds exciting! Do tell...what happened? I imagine it must be better than Little Kuriboh posting the final episode of Yugioh Abridged.
