Awww now I feel like I did it wrong (being only audio only)
I'll re-do as a response to the first.

You don't miss a trick, do you girl? Revision, an exam, and later on Britain's Got Talent all got in the way. I'll do it before bed though, definitely.Geek@Heart said:A small reminder that you haven't yet posted your vid......Trivun said:Also, don't worry, you can all hear the beauty of the greatest of the West Midlands accents soon enough, I'll be sure to post later today
Well, technology hates my guts. Turn your volume up, turn yourself upside down and barf enjoy-

Quoted to attract your attention, may I suggest that you edit your first post to include the responses already made? Saves the time for most readers to skim through all the responses in search of a video.JanatUrlich said:
Why, for these dire times we face, one should only praise the initiative thou has teased us with. To unite us unto a single banner may very well be the light that brightens our dawn! To pass onto such scrutiny may very well be the torrential fall that quickens our dusk! I beg of thee, fair wanderer, quench our thirst for unity, step forth!Halceon said:
Edit:
My neck hurts like hell now, but I had a good laugh nonetheless! Amazing how amusing it can be to watch somebody talk upside down.stormcaller said:
Edit 2: A piece of advice, perhaps you can put some sort off foam over your microphone. Perhaps even a bit of toilet paper (no idea if that might work, but it's worth a try), it might negate the blowing sound you hear when you talk.
No methods of doing so, sorry.
Also, I rather like my anonymity. It forces people to pay attention to my words, instead of associating them with an image of a person that they can stereotype and possibly be prejudiced against. 'Sides, I'm not looking to make a name for myself. Not here, anyhow.

Damnit. Sorry everyone, no video of me anytime soon =/DarkMessiah said:I'd wake someone up if I went and got my webcam, and recorded myself talking randomly.
But I will get a response done tomorrow
Expect to see me wearing an XBL headset mic, my webcam's mic sucks.
First I was gonna do it with my video capture device and a video camera I 'borrowed' from a mate about a year ago, but then the drivers fucked up and I got the first BSoD ever on this computer, which I've had for a couple of years (Thanks Janat
). Then I got my webcam, and went downstairs to grab my 360 controller and headset because my cam has a crappy mic. The video didn't record properly and I wasted several minutes of my life.I'm now too bored of this to try again
i recorded a 3 min video, only to find that my webcam and my mic don't get on. I'm gonna do one tomorrow, and link it.

And another "friendly" reminder.......
Damn-it; I just recorded a voice-file on my phone, then realised that I have no way of transferring it on to the computer (I must have left the cable at home). In lieu of that:
1) What's your name? Luke
2) How old are you? 20
3) Where are you from? Are you living there right now? North Wales. No.
4) What's the time? 23:12
5) What was the last thing you listened to? Pour Some Sugar On Me Def Leppard
6) What was the last video game you played? Thief: The Dark Project
7) What's your favorite video game? Why? Tetris. Because it is a perfect game
8) Quick! Find a book, or something with text on it! Flip to a random page and read some of it! GO! I had a delightful recitation from Introduction to Magnetic Resonance.
9) What was the last movie you saw? How was it? A Hammer Horror Dracula movie (I can't remember which one). It was pretty good.
10) Do YOU think you have an accent? Talk about that. Nope, and the fact people can never tell where I'm from (more than 'somewhere in Britain') leads me to believe I don't have one.

Go!Cam ftw. I'll get to making a vid as well this weekend. Gotta study more first, and I'll upload it through my laptop (which is lying at home, as I can't study when it's lying in my dorm room as well).JanatUrlich said:
THE big question is however... should I do it in English, or should I do it in my West-Flemish dialect (so you guys will basically not understand anything, but you'll hear my true, Dutch/Flemish accent)?
Keep the thread alive 'till at least friday or saturday!
Do a bit in English and do a bit in your West-Flemish dialect! That'd be awesome!Saphatorael said:
If the thread's dead by whenever you wanna post, just revive it anyway XD
You've twisted my arm, I just recorded it now. Bit of a battery problem on my digital camera but it's sorted now, waiting for it to load, and it'll be up within the next five to ten minutesGeek@Heart said:Nope, I never miss a trickTrivun said:You don't miss a trick, do you girl?
