I know it’s been a bit quiet around here; sorry about that. A hell of a week last week for all sorts of reasons, least of all my continuing power cut / electricity supply problems, which usually affected my wifi.
In the meantime, if you’d like to hear Something What I Did, a new episode of Tagline: a movie podcast is online, with my brother and I talking (mostly) about The Incredible Hulk, Indy and other geeky movies. You can listen, subscribe, etc over at the Tagline site.
Speaking of podcasts, we’re really close to locking Episode 3 of the Official NCE ‘cast, too.

Just thinking about Podcasts, I remember you asking if there’s anything we wanted to hear in 5 (or something).
I was wondering if you’re able to elaborate on what’s planned with ingame advertisements…
1) To what extent are players allowed to advertise?
2) What kind of adverts might we expect to see?
3) Are there any companies already chomping at the bit?
That is of course, if you’re able to answer/discuss any of these questions.

Ah, was wondering where you’d vanished off to.
Still trying to find my CDs (to burn the previous podcasts onto and give me something interesting to listen to in the car of a morning).
I’ve got 30 kicking around somewhere, I just don’t know where the blasted things are!
As for the ‘what would you like to hear in future podcasts’ thing, as mentioned by Geoffrey…
The one thing I’d like to hear is something I doubt we ever will (especially not in an official, corporate podcast) – C4: Candid Community Coordinator Comments!
Since most of the contact you fellows have with us lot is via the forums, I’d love to hear some of what you all *really* think. Some questions to lead off with:
Do you get as annoyed by Golden Girl’s continual calls for animated hair as the rest of us?
Can you spot a thread that’s guaranteed to spark a flame war?
When was the last time you read something and said to yourself “Oh, please, don’t rise to the bait!”
When was the last time you read something and said to yourself “Oh, I wish I could tell you what I *really* think!”
Do you have office sweepstakes on things to do with the forums, and if so, what do you bet on? (and if you don’t, maybe you should!)
There we go. As I said, I sincerely doubt you will be able to say anything of the sort, but it would be fun!
