SW: Rise Network- Podcast/Site Discussion

awesome, nice to have a bit of a home spot that isn't amount of people limited for this.

i completely forgot to mention before, i do really like the new look over there. it's much cleaner and more appealing.

also, would like to be one of the first to officially welcome Chukles38 to the crew. i heard through the grapevine he's even working on a post as i type this so... maybe there'll be two posts today! that'd be a first.

that first post was one i just put up actually, it's the start of what is going to be a long journey for me, but hopefully a rewarding one for both myself and anyone who decides to tag along with me as i read through as near the entirety of SWs as i can. i've read the dawn of the jedi comics to date, and will be starting on the dawn of the jedi novel soon for anyone who wants to read along with me. the comics were excellent, and i'll be going more into them later on, but there was something about the first comic that really just struck me and so i post about it.

anyway, looking forward to getting the podcast up and going finally. hopefully we can get some topics and such finalized soon heels?

 

I hope have something about "Maul's new forrest gumps" or "This is not your father's Vader" up by this weekend.

 

cool, i very much look forward to getting to read that.

 

Sorry, on my tab. Given my history in PT, and having watched all TCW eppy's a million times...
Left-field, I've been working on Maul from the Essential Guide's, or should I say Palpatine's point of view?
And, I want to make it a poll at the end. x2.

 

lol. the first poll. was wondering when that'd finally show up.

no worries about where you're writing from. or on what, rather.

palps point of view is always interesting, i have to say. i kind of wish they'd do another book from his perspective, but i'm hoping very seriously that they don't bring him back in the ST. that would just be... blech.

 

I should be posting my top ten best and worst Star Wars games tomorrow. Sadly not doing the worst because I simply did not know what to put for it.

 

Knights of the Old Republic 2 would be a good start

 

for worst? really?

 

Yes.

 

we will have to seriously agree to disagree on that one. i'd probably go TFU2 and TFU for worst long before it even gets near KOTOR II.

 

Umm... TFU is on my top ten best.

 

Sorry for the double post but I would like to create an article as a memorial to Ann Crispin and if anyone has any words to say for it please post.

 

well, gameplay only TFU is a lot of fun, but i detest, despise and otherwise want to burn, destroy and obliterate the storyline. that borderline ruins the game for me.

oh, and you do realize that none of us actually has to agree with you on... much of anything really? i mean this is a lot of opinion related stuff after all, and everyone has different ones.

 

Post the top ten list. I already almost have another post about the canceled games ready to go. But here is the post:

Very good idea. I was thinking about doing a post for her, but it's been a while since I read the books and I don't think I could do an in-depth job justice. I'd be happy to submit any words, whenever you'd like.

Annnd to shamelessly self-plug, my first post just got published: http://starwarsrise.com/2013/09/06/star-wars-as-literature-it-can-be-done-and-also-hello/

 

I feel weird being the youngest author on the blog and now not being the only Imperial on the site.

 

You're looking at this all wrong. This is where we gang up on the rest of them and conquer the blog for the Empire.

Seriously, though, it makes for a nice mixture.

If there is not a full crew for the podcast I could join in it it just a matter of finding my mic.

 

As a note, I am always willing to do some podcast recording. Sounds like a blast, just sayin.

Also, while I have always had pro Rebellion/Republic leanings, with this talk of an imperial takeover in the wind, I am totally up for... discussions as to my allegiance, if the price is right.

 

Hmm.. I got an idea. Any rebel scum out there?
