Before I read blackhole's post i was going to suggest the name "Kafuka Evolution" which, admittedly, is rather lame. Since we want to go with a name that actually fits the site, why don't we deliberate on a name (another one that just popped up is acmlm.kafuka) and keep the URL. Because the domain belongs to Emuz and we'd have to ask him about permission first, keeping the URL and changing the name would be a good idea.

So in IRC I came up with the idea of having a board2 podcast, and Sukasa and Bukkarooo pitched in and gave the ideas that we should have interviews, hack reviews, a hacking for dummies section, just shooting the shit and etc. Logs will follow of the discussion, but some other ideas were a board2tv for podcast review, as well as using board2radio as the live stream for the podcast. And while the podcast is being recorded for the board2 radio we could record the ui of the person playing the hack so that everyone knows what's going on when we review.

Or something like that. Logs for clarityishness (fluff not removed):

[17:44:44] Paul> quick suggestion here
[17:45:10] Paul> why not have a "hacking for dummies" podcast for board2?
[17:45:48] Paul> podcasts are really popular, and even if it's not a good central theme for the podcast, we could put out our own podcast for rom hacking
[17:46:01] Paul> it's noth that brilliant but it's just modern enough to work
[17:46:33] Bukkarooo> haha
[17:46:35] Bukkarooo> well
[17:46:41] Bukkarooo> I think a podcast could be pretty cool
[17:47:03] Paul> we'd need to do some advertising though
[17:47:20] Bukkarooo> could have experienced hackers come on and be interviewed, or some other members interviewed
[17:47:24] Boing> http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa175/boingboingsplat/Screen%20Shots/SMW_00005.png
[17:47:28] Boing> made it less eye kill
[17:47:49] Bukkarooo> and have members submit questions for those who are getting interviewed
[17:49:25] Kuro-chan> New reply by CyclopsCaveman (General Chat: Name Change Suggestion Thread #492 (4679) (+138)) - http://acmlm.kafuka.org/board?p=101181
[17:49:43] Paul> yyeah
[17:49:47] Sukasa> ...ouch, boing. When I said red, I did not mean just three shades of it D:
[17:49:54] Sukasa> try halving the brightness on each
[17:50:01] Paul> Podcasts are pretty much trhe new radio anyway
[17:50:13] Bukkarooo> lol
[17:50:20] Paul> actually kasa, I like that
[17:50:38] Paul> feels like i'm really deep into a pit of lava
[17:51:27] Boing> well its better than the old one
[17:51:45] Boing> and I can't really halve the brightness because darker = more transparent
[17:51:50] Kuro-chan> New reply by CyclopsCaveman (General Chat: board2. (4678) (+479)) - http://acmlm.kafuka.org/board?p=101182
[17:51:56] Paul> oops i posted
[17:53:15] Paul> we could seriously do the podcast thing though
[17:53:32] Paul> fire up skype, hit record for audio and there we go
[17:53:51] Paul> we could bring in still-around people like tweaker and etc
[17:54:19] Paul> and we could try and hunt down some of the older people to see if we can get interviews from everyone
[17:54:38] Paul> but we shouldn't do interviews every episode though
[17:55:14] Bukkarooo> yeah
[17:55:24] Bukkarooo> what else could we do?
[17:55:35] Sukasa> live on the radio
[17:55:44] Sukasa> as well as recorded
[17:55:58] Bukkarooo> recorded for podcast, and live on the radio?
[17:56:02] Sukasa> yeah
[17:56:02] Bukkarooo> sounds great, imo
[17:56:03] Paul> we could review hacks
[17:56:07] Bukkarooo> ooh
[17:56:09] Bukkarooo> that too
[17:56:27] Sukasa> we could cross-review stuff from Jul and SMWC one slow weeks, too
[17:56:30] Sukasa> *on
[17:56:39] Bukkarooo> maybe have an occaisional fraxy episode *wink wink nudge nudge*
[17:56:41] Bukkarooo> hahaha
[17:56:51] Sukasa> SMWC we'd be busy laughing at though
[17:57:00] Bukkarooo> lol
[17:57:04] Boing> look at what this one guy made
[17:57:06] Boing> http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/9193/backupsmwrom00025aj5.png
[17:57:37] Paul> for april fools episodes we could give a good review to a smwc hack for kicks
[17:57:46] Paul> and give bad hacking tips and etc
[17:57:57] Sukasa> boing: nice
[17:58:06] Bukkarooo> paul: lol
[17:58:10] Boing> I didn't make it but some other kid did (He's 14!)
[17:58:14] Sukasa> that was SuperFX or HDMA?
[17:58:19] Boing> Mode7
[17:58:22] Sukasa> ah
[17:58:28] Sukasa> Skew
[17:58:43] Paul> we should review all types of hacks out there like SM, Sonic, YI, SMW and etc
[17:58:51] Boing> anyways I need to take a shower
[17:58:51] Sukasa> surprised he didn't use HDMA to turn on the status bar
[17:58:52] Paul> it'd be a great project to do
[17:58:54] Sukasa> looks lke he could have
[17:59:07] Sukasa> you could also have a retrospective on new threads
[17:59:13] Paul> yeah
[17:59:10] Sukasa> ...hm
[17:59:20] Paul> but wait
[17:59:26] Boing> also would the reviews be video/audio/written or what
[17:59:29] Paul> what kind of radio should we use for live streams
[17:59:29] Sukasa> I wonder if it'd be possible to dick with Skype and let me record from TV
[17:59:42] Paul> cos like
[17:59:43] Sukasa> Boing: we'd play and review them live
[17:59:53] Sukasa> or some combo of live/predone
[17:59:57] Sukasa> Paul: board2 radio
[18:00:01] Paul> depending on wether or not we do internet or conventional has an effect on the whole thing
[18:00:04] Paul> oh!
[18:00:07] Paul> yes
[18:00:07] Boing> so it'd be like LP's live?
[18:00:20] Sukasa> somewhat. We'd preplay the level, then play again live
[18:00:24] Paul> i guess so
[18:00:37] Paul> i wouldn't say live lps though
[18:00:37] Sukasa> hm
[18:00:42] Sukasa> I have to try something when I get home
[18:00:42] Boing> I would be willing to do that
[18:00:56] Paul> we could have a board2tv
[18:00:57] Sukasa> see if I can't get S-Video/RCA audio input working for skype
[18:01:02] Boing> anwyays going to go take a shower
[18:01:02] Paul> where we do lps of hacks
[18:01:17] Sukasa> because I could send video to everyone on radio so we'd all be seeing the same things
[18:01:18] Paul> and have the reviews on the radio and podcast
[18:01:20] Paul> so like
[18:01:23] * Boing is now known as Boing|AFK
[18:01:28] Sukasa> and therefore commenting so that people could understand
[18:02:01] Paul> the podcast would have the reviews minus video to be radio compatable
[18:02:15] Paul> but there would also be video podcasts that go with board2tv
[18:02:48] Paul> we could also have like
[18:03:06] Sukasa> yeah, of course no video on the radio
[18:03:10] Bukkarooo> lol
[18:03:13] Paul> someone recording their desktop so we can have people who don't have a mic talk on the podcast
[18:03:17] Sukasa> but at least the reviewers wouldn't be reviewing different parts at once and confusing everyone
[18:03:29] Paul> ah great idea
[18:03:40] Paul> before we continue
[18:03:46] Paul> we should create a thread for this
[18:03:54] Paul> the ideas would be more organized

And then in a year

Board2:010

Because naming yourself after the year is hilariously pointless.

pointless.

It's not funny really, naming yourself after the year would get tiresome and boring, and besides, this whole thing is meant to move away from board2, rather than stick with it.

Also I think acmlm.kafuka.forums or something like it cough cough sputter sputter would be good.

If you point out an error with a word, then you get to make a new word to start off of again. The new word must be five letters or less. When a new word is made, the list of words that cannot be said due to being a duplicate word is cleared.

Also. *ahem* IF YOU START A NEW WORD, PM ME.

so yeah

This is a great idea I support wholeheartedly, everything need something like this if it uses videos. But how are we going to actually do this? I know we can use a collection on youtub, but how are we going to pick a video to be featured and etc?

Okay, so I'm not actually that big a weeaboo, but I once went into a comic book shop and scooped up a manga. It's called "The Demon Ororon" and it's by Hakase Mizuki. It's an awesome book with an awesome plot, with an amazing art style that's extremely different from the manga/anime cliche styles, in my opinion.

I think you guys should check it out, and if you have, what's your opinion?
