08/22/09 [CVRPG Live] - A 50 in 24 event! (Details Within)

[Darkmoon]

Okay, I have the room on ustream setup: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/cvrpg-live

I'm going to repurpose this topic for it, so if it looks a little funky for a few, that's why...

[Darkmoon]

Added info for voice chat.

[Destina Faroda]

I just tried to connect, but all I got was "Error."

[Darkmoon]

The password is case-sensitive. That may be part of the issue.

[Castle Pokemetroid]

The headset to my mom's computer is actually attached in the back of the PC, were many many wires dwell. My mom is currently using her computer, so I'll just wait a while before trying to connect to the stream.

Also, just so I know, will there be visuals to the live stream stuff? You know, like a live vid of Darkmoon making the comics?

If not, I'll be working on my own series while on the chat thing.

[Darkmoon]

The live stream should be broadcasting a feed of my desktop as I work.

[Castle Pokemetroid]

Horay, I have the headset.

I shall now be attempting to connect to the live feed.

The thing's not working for me. I try to download, but yet it rejects.

I understand not of what it's problem may be.

[VSMIT]

Install as admin?

[Damaris]

Are you on an administrator's account on your operating system? If you have a limited account on your operating system, that could be the source of your issues - you may not have the rights to install the program.

[Castle Pokemetroid]

Oh . . .

I guess I won't be joining the live feed thing after all.

Oh well.

[VSMIT]

You can watch, since that just requires an internet connection.  That's separate from Teamspeak.

[Damaris]

that, or get your parents to sign you in as an admin so you can download the program.

[Castle Pokemetroid]

I don't want to bother my parents.

Saturday is their rest day, they can get pissed off and throw stuff across the room.

I also rather not miss out.

I'll be on later, I'll find a way.

[Damaris]

welcome to the chat!

[Darkmoon]

Alrighty, for those just joining in, we're over halfway through the 50/24 challenge, and still have more than enough time to go. Anyone that stays awake through this (or are late nighters) can join in on the rest of the festivities as we will be doing random comics from the fans after the main arc is finished.

Start thinking of ideas as we'll be looking for your suggestions!

Far too much lack of sleep.

[VSMIT]

And thus the webcast draws to a close.  66 comics in approx. 19 hours.  Quite an impressive feat.

[Destina Faroda]

I thought it was supposed to last 24 hours.  Where's my last hour?

[GabrielsThoughts]

I read up until 37 or 38...before that I remember a conversation a bout George Lucas and Kitten being a general term for all of Darkmoon's cats. Oh and DM's vision was going burry. by the way 38 pages in 12hrs is pretty impressive. I didn't sign in for chat, because it wouldn't let me. in total I followed for about 3hrs. gave me something to listen to... while I was reading other web comics.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

He ran out of work to do.

And then the slacker went to sleep. I mean, pfft, what was he thinking? ;-]

[Destina Faroda]

Eh...I was only kidding about the whole 24 hours thing.  I couldn't get the chat to work anyway, but I saw about five minutes of the broadcast, which was depressing enough for me.  Depressing, in that the man can do in five minutes what it takes me five hours.  Seeing his efficiency makes me realize I'll never be a part of his world.  And that part I'm not kidding about.

[Damaris]

He's lucky enough to have the tools to do it quickly, though, and a lot of practical experience on them through is day job. You use Paint, don't you?  That, in and of itself, is a feat for comic things - you can't make a mistake, otherwise you're rebuilding sections.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

He's still slacking off in bed, isn't he?

[bradypodidae]

If nothing else, I am now fairly certain that the Box NEVER sleeps...

It was fun, entertaining, and believe it or not, fascinating watching Darkmoon's process in creating CVRPG. I swear, he never slowed down. As efficient as Darkmoon is at assembling the components of his comic on the page, what struck me most was his ability to create a cohesive, and more often then not, humorous page and arc on the fly. I would have run out of ideas by page three.

Thanks to Darkmoon, llearch, and the rest for putting up with me on the voice chat. That was a first for me. Although I'm not sure being a member of a Cast is my true calling...

Darkmoon, I hope you go through with your idea about a monthly jam session; should be a lot of fun.

[Damaris]

Nope, I think he was up by the time I posted last, llearch.
