DOWNLOAD LATEST PODCAST HERE

Tomorrow (Saturday) we’ll be doing a live mini-show for ArenaCast with myself, Igoaf, and possibly some guests. A full show will be recorded Tuesday or Wednesday with some more players who were in Europe. See you then!

GotFrag is allowing 400 WoW fans to sit in and listen to some WoW professionals (the ones who weren’t good enough to make it to Cologne haha) in Ventrilo for one of their ‘Vent Parties’.

Matches begin at 4:15 a.m. EST but they will start pregame discussion around 3:00 a.m. EST. Igoaf might join in but nothings been set in stone.

We cover topics such as The Elite Eight TR Council, 3.1, and new comps in Season 6. Thanks for listening and Saturday is now our regular show date.

Also, a reminder that our in-browser player is shit so you’re forced to download it. I’m sorry.

UPDATE: As of 6:20 CST we decided to call it as the great Phuox could not be found. Igoaf and I agreed that we should try to wait and see if he comes around tomorrow (perhaps adjusting to European schedule already or something?) so we’re going to shoot for an early recording in the day time. If he isn’t around, as the Wing King Kintt said, “THE SHOW MUST GO ON,” channeling his inner Freddie. We’ll pull something together tomorrow if he isn’t and have it up for you guys (hopefully) by 4 p.m. CST. Sorry for the delay in show coming up yet again. Till tomorrow~

We’re going to be recording (yes, recording, again) this Saturday around 6 CST. We’re recording again because my laptop battery died and because Dell is such a piece of shit I can’t go buy a 130w battery here in town and have to order one… I digress. We’ll start doing live shows again whenever I get the battery (probably the next week).

So, Kintt, Igoaf, Serennia, and possibly some other WoW players (I might join in, we’ll see) on Arenacast this week. Expect show to be up around 7:30 p.m. CST or 8. Till then, have fun slaying dragons.

Don’t be alarmed, the podcast isn’t up yet (and won’t be up till about 10ish Wednesday night). I just wanted to inform everyone that usually listens to the show live that this week we’re going to try going back to recording the show, kicking it old school. This will allow for more edits, more segments (without downtime) and technical errors should be lowered a lot as well.

We’re going to try to improve the show a lot in the upcoming weeks so just be prepared for some cool, new segments, as well as some awful segments which we will never go back to ever again. I’m not going to spoil much for tomorrow’s episode however so you’ll just have to wait for it tomorrow night.

I can however tell you who’s going to be on the show: Forteh and Roguemonkey. If you would like to ask questions to either of these two gentleman send them to questions@arenacast.net. Also any other questions you have for the cast feel free to send them there.

So once again, there will be no live show tomorrow April 8, 2009. Talk to you guys tomorrow via a downloadable podcast!

I also took some time to discuss all of these grandiose plans that I had for ArenaCast are now being scrapped and we’re looking to do nothing but make the podcast better. Most of that in the cast though. Enjoy listening and if you have any idea’s for segments you would like to see in future shows let us know via the comments. Thanks for listening!

In the show we discussed the tournament realm, 3.1’s impending changes, rogues from zyZ’s perspective, the rating changes to season six and as always plenty of drama about a fox, wolf and wings.

We were able to cover a lot of the questions that you’ve all been sending in so keep them coming!

Also in the show we discussed moving the show to Saturday evenings. Tell us what you think of the idea via the poll below. Thanks!

There is also some great talk about the ESL tournament, Patch 3.1, and of course user questions! Yay! That reminds me: all questions can be sent to questions@arenacast.net and we will get them next week. So thanks for listening, lets go for a record download again. Share this to all your friends, etc.

Sorry for the late upload, technical (idiocy) problems delayed it. See you all next week.

Temporary Alt Download Link, only up for a little bit: HERE

On a side note the past two weeks we’ve been really close to hitting a landmark number of downloads. Lets try for it this week. If we hit it, we might be able to give something away to our listeners! Spread the love!

The rest of the show we discuss the ramifications of 3.1 (in detail), talk about eMg’s new WoW team, a little insight to the tournament realm, and then of course user questions. We’ll see you guys next week for our ESL Preview show. Thanks for listening!

In an interesting move, Blizzard has gone away from the two seperate qualifiers they had this season, and instead will invite the top 1000 teams to a one week invitational ladder, following the six week long open competition.  In true WoTLK fashion, players who participate in the TR will receive not only an Armored Murloc vanity pet, but also a sleek “Vanquisher” title for their live characters.

It remains to be seen whether or not the TR will actually begin the 17th, but from the looks of it, patch 3.1 will hit mid TR.  Thats….. pretty typical, and creates a whole host of balancing  issues (as if there weren’t enough already).  Regardless, I’m sure a lot of people are excited about the announcement!  Be sure to tune-in to the show tomorrow for an in depth discussion on the announcement, and what it means to the scene.
