intro

-conda accidentally stopped the intro jam before removing his mask and putting on his glasses, so his changing was done in silence, didn’t feel right.

— for some reason, sound alerts were not playing in the chat, but all three of us on the stream could hear them. i double checked and they were set to “monitor and output”, so i feel confident this was an OBS (broadcasting software) issue and not ineptitude on my part. i will list it as a nalfunction anyway, to commit to transparency. the good news is i remembered this time to have the sound alerts set as the top layer, so even if the people couldn’t hear them, a big notification flashed on the screen to let people know what sounds were being played from the chat.

-i kept referring to our guest as brando, because i have been calling him that since, maybe middle school?, and it is a good name, i love it, but after reflection i should have given him the courtesy of using the name he uses for himself. i fully intend to rectify this with an apology on next week’s episode, and if i forget i will apologize for forgetting the week after.

-as detailed in our transcript of the show intros, we had a baffling technical mix up right off the bat. anything we said would come in repeated on a ten second or so delay after we said it, just long enough so that i kept thinking the issue had been resolved, and then it would hit again. turns out what happened was that i pulled up our twitch page on one of the monitors so i could keep an eye on how many people were watching, but in doing so we were getting the audio from our stream coming back in through my headphones, and then shared with the others through my screen share they were watching. an absolutely confusing thing, compounded by the fact that the doubling only occurred to us and was not audible to anyone watching. probably one of my best nalfunctions.
