Man I sometimes wonder why they even bother taking phone calls, it seems like they get really dumb calls, or just trolls who suck at trolling. I guess occasionally they get a really good caller so its worth it? They need to hire someone to screen the calls before they open phone lines, or wheat needs to invent that button for everyone lol.

Im glad SOTG doesnt receive phone calls anymore. I think Wheat should do the same.

bad trolls arent the main problem for me, but people calling asking for advices or complaining about balance is so damn annoying. There are plenty of sites where you can find proper answer for your ingame problems. It doesnt matter how good Idra is, he wont be able to explain you in 30 secs how you will become better.

Yeah I think Wheat should limit viewer questions to e-mail. Maybe screen the mails to find people who have something more complex and interesting to discuss and then call them on the show, but the random questions tend to get more repetetive and thus boring imo. Goatlust should be still be in the show regularly ofc.
But then again I assume he does not have the time to screen mails although maybe the amount of work you have to put into an e-mail question is higher than for just calling so there should be much less questions via e-mail than random phone calls. But probably still too many. Mh...

I think Wheat reads the emails that they get. Then he picks what he wants to if he finds it an interesting topic for the show.

i think wheat should ask people to email in rather than call. i enjoy listening to the show but the call ins are so cringy with people all shy and/or asking shit they havent really thought through. i end up turning off the stream at question time every week

Gonna second the email screening idea. It'd be more work but would produce more interesting and varied questions rather than the same "Who do you think is the best foreigner?" type questions. Perhaps ITG could implement something similar to Day9 with the question grabber? My $0.02.

While I understand that some blatant trolls deserve to be ignored, I can't help but feel that they should roll with it a bit more.

If this happened on TheGDStudio they would all happily roll with it, have a laugh and some banter, rip into the guy who asked the question and move on.

It's for this reason I also hope to see them take live calls simply for the hilarity which is likely to ensue. You can guarantee 2GD's reply about banging Demuslim's girlfriend would have been highly inappropriate, and very funny.

Thanks for posting these mate! Since Wheat doesn't upload MP3's any more this is how I stay connected to the show since I can almost never watch live. Cheers!

It's a little mind blowing that they still can't produce their own mp3's or update the OP of this post with links to the VODs. How long has it been now with literally no improvement? 6 months?


It has been a while and the issue is not being corrected. I was able to listen to it on sound cloud on my iphone, but that sucks and there is no rewind feature that works well. I may have to call in and really bother Wheat about it. It is really annoying to have to go through all these hoops just to listen to it on my Iphone.

Thanks man, I appreciate this, and the others that high five me each week.

It's really only about 5 extra minutes of effort each week though, as I'd be making the mp3s for my own use regardless. I'm happy to help out the community.

And Wheat will say the same thing he already said in this thread: He can't do anything about it, it's a problem created by blip(? forgot the name)

A fan and listener is able to upload an MP3 of the show within 12 hours every week. I don't think he is magic or has special software that Wheat cannot get his hands on. I think it is not a priority for Wheat and I respect that. However, I like the show and I feel it should be higher on his list of things to do. Calling into the show is a good way to get his attention on the issue and I would most likely follow it up with another question that is more SC 2 related.

well, go ahead and call in then. It's probably for the best, when he explains it on air, so more people will know it.

Wheat is more concerned at yelling at trolls on the show than spending the 5 minutes to edit the OP.

If SotG can do it, i don't see why this show can't. Wheat for some reason just doesnt give a damn. I love the show, but it's this kind of little things that makes the show less professional.

I don't really like sounding ungrateful because I love the show, but it is kind of ridiculous that this problem hasn't been fixed yet. I couldn't care less if the original OP is updated, so long as I could subscribe to the show on iTunes or through an RSS feed. Just from the standpoint that it means less people are watching the show regularly, which seems to be the last thing you'd want if you were hosting ItG/Lo3 etc. I can't think of a reason you'd ever want to willingly prevent people who want to access your product from doing so. That said, keep it up because I truly enjoy the podcast. Thanks for what you do.

Also: Hashbaz' soundcloud has already gone over the download limit for this weeks episode. That right there shows the demand for a podcasted version of the program is out there.

Tasteless was who came to mind. Seeing as they were talking about premier/big bucks casters(tb, day9, tastosis). I wouldn't really say TB is just in it for the money...he hates playing the game but to me it seems like he quite enjoys casting it.

--

In terms of callers, maybe having a voicemail that wheat went through instead? plus goatlust live, obviously. that way there is no idiots and the questions are worth discussing rather than platinum league metagame.

also, e-mails seem fine as well. probably easier to sort through than a voicemail style.
