Even if he was showing off a good game it still wouldn't be acceptable.

No apologies from me.  "Chronically late" isn't something you get to label yourself as some cute little title that means it doesn't affect everyone else.  You tell someone you'll be there at a certain time, then you either be there, or you give some notice as to what's going on and why you'll be running late.

It's entirely disrespectful and wasteful to everyone else's time who takes you for your word that you'll be there.

And plans change cause that happens. I said what was going on there was no surprises. No one needs to be sitting at a computer waiting for a podcast as if their life depends on it. No apologies needed from anyone, plans changed and it didn't happen woopie freaking do. So we do it another day.

I wish I could plus this a thousand times. It is very annoying when people do this, especially if you had to organize stuff. I find it best to cut ties with these people, it will save you a lot of trouble.

Plans changed because you acted like a little bitch and bailed out. You left your friends hanging.

My friend was at my house so uh yeah... Podcasts can wait, actual live human beings in front of you cant.  Again plans change, plans I MADE, plans I changed and then changed back. No one else said anything about a time, Aspro was nice enough to be ready when I switched them to be earlier but I had to delay. There was no set time, no one else was getting on and you mister robot bitch were on skype, did you give three shits about being on a podcast, nope.

Sorry you are making excuses. Something little bitches do all the time. You do not get to change plans whenever it suits you, there are other people involved which, you screwed over. Changing plans just before something starts is just as bad as bailing. It is really simple guys, pick a time and keep it. It no rocket science or anything.

Sorry I won't do podcasts. This stuff happened to me once, I quit immediately.

I am not making excuses I am telling you how it is. Where was the time that was picked go back please find it? If there were other people involved guess what they would have done a podcast without me. It was me and aspro.

ACTUALLY there was a set time it was midnight EST (which I was ready for), I actually moved it forward but does anyone complain about that nope. I can only move times when its convienent for you then. If the real issue was that a set time was changed then people would be complaining about it starting early. Its all BS. Podcasts have always been a fluid siuation, we cover multiple timezones, people with different schedules, it gets done when it gets done. If two people can set a time great do it, if three can even better but if not we have to play it by ear.

BTW you say its so simple to pick a time and do something HUH Iga... REALLY. Great job doing that for the hobo cup OH WAIT.... YEAH...

You moved it forward and no one complained, then you moved it back. Yes you can only move time when it is convenient to everybody. Guess what that is how it works, you are not doing it on your own. If you move it back then be sure it is convenient otherwise there is no podcast. Guess what happened?

And podcast have been a fluid situation as you call it, because people like you are acting like a bitch. There were many situations where someone was kept waiting. It is very simple, set a time with people from different time zones and keep it. If you have a friend over say that you are busy. If you are not sure? Fine! Don't do a podcast and give it to someone that can open his/her agenda and plan ahead.

Oh look trying to change the topic. Fine. I never entered the hobo cup, I was forced by Yoda. I did set a time, but Yoda already kicked me out. And I was also sick, but don't let that stop you champ! But let's keep it about me! Who got GG on the podcast?! Hmm, who actually organized a live podcast with people from Aussieland? Yeah. I am pretty sure I set a time for both of them.

Oh look who is making excuses now. Nyaa

I did move it to a time that was convienent for everyone, I AM INCLUDED IN EVERYONE. What part of I could not go at that time do you not understand, and look by your very definition "Yes you can only move time when it is convenient to everybody. Guess what that is how it works" it was not convienent to me therefore we could not go. No one had said it was not convienient to do it at midnight, again no one but aspro said anything yesterday so I was just going to wing it and see who was on, Aspro couldn't go at midnight so it didn't happen, we try again today or the next day or the next day it really is not that hard as you make it out to be.

"If you have a friend over say that you are busy. If you are not sure? Fine! Don't do a podcast and give it to someone that can open his/her agenda and plan ahead." This is exactly what happened, was there anyone else to do that NOPE. So yeah you are arguing on my behalf, everything you said I did.

Here's a breakdown of what happened from all sides:

- Vader mentions he is available midnight onward
- aspro suggests a podcast at the "usual time" of about 23:00
- In advance, aspro checks with me about podcast plans over Skype.
- We see you say you are ready at 22:12, and are available "whenever"
- 10 minutes later, you say give you 30 minutes, suggesting you will be on time for the suggested 23:00 podcast time

Aspro and I are now prepping for a podcast after confirming Foolz won't be on this one.  We are under the impression that you are going to show.  WE HEAR NOTHING FOR ANOTHER HOUR, and get a message with no concretes of when you will show or if.  Basically just a post to confirm that you are not dead, but still not available.  ANOTHER HOUR PASSES.  Aspro leaves because he can't wait around all day for you and is getting sore sitting at the computer.  I leave because I have the option of playing some online games with friends over waiting aimlessly and trying to check in repeatedly to see what's going on.

If nobody waits for anyone else, then the group will never come together.  There was a time specified, you gave us a confirmation, then we had to wait for hours.  These are the consequences.

BTW Iga, on the Hobo Cup, I wholly recognize I threw people in without agreement on participation, for the sake of coercion.  You're also not kicked out, just dropped to the lower bracket.  You will be able to continue and participate, should you so choose going forward.

And no one communicated any of that to me. As far as I knew it was just aspro waiting to start a podcast at anytime. My mistake was not clarifing how long it was going to take and totally misjudging the time, I had no clue an hour went by  so sorry about that and at that point I was just letting aspro know that I have no clue when I will be ready. Since I thought he was just alone I figured he would just move on as clearly there was no one to do a podcast with. If you two were ready just go, its always been like that, just start and I would have joined up later if I finished in time.

So from my point of view I thought aspro would just do something else as I would or any of us would until I was ready and if he couldn't do it later I understood, he mentioned he couldn't go late to begin with.

How dare you have some randomness, pick a time and stick with it. Nyaa (Hope everything is ok)

This week I am good late nights, again like midnight on. No rush for me and as always if you get a group just go.

It may work out at the usual time, but I won't know until I talk to some people this morning so I'm not saying I'm in. So if Yoda or Robio are in go without me and send me the files.  (But do please make that change in Pamela that splits the track into stereo. The instructions in the thread below are still accurate). Splitting it makes it possible for me to edit out most instances of cross-talk.
