Re: Episode Transcripts

Looks good! I'm ashamed to say I still haven't finished Root of Evil. Been a bit busy lately with other projects.

by **Pythonmelon** Thu Dec 01, 2011 2:50 pm

thanks! i probably wont finish 'Nos-4-a2" for a while because the teachers are killing us this time of year. Ya know...essays, science fair, blah

Kind of the same reason I haven't finished "Gravitina". It takes a while to write out all the action. :S I got two weeks left, so I might as well focus on my assignments! *continues being lazy despite that*

by **Ranger-Nova** Fri Dec 02, 2011 6:05 am

Yeah, the action is the worst part. Dialogue is okay, because you just write down everything they say, but with action you actually have to find a way to describe all the stuff that's going on. I tend to only explain the barest minimum necessary to understand what's going on. Your Torque Armada transcript was much better written. I'm sure Gravitina will be great.

by **Steel** Fri Dec 02, 2011 7:19 am

The only reason "The Torque Armada" was so detailed was because I initially wrote it for the BLoSCWiki! I never completed it and had it up there half-finished because of the amount of time and detail I was putting into it. I was planning to slooowly plod through doing transcripts for all the episodes myself, but then you popped up and I was happeh! It gave me the motivation to finish the transcript up and post it! Wink

All of us pitching in to do transcripts will save tons of time in the long run, regardless of how detailed they are. Sprucing them up for the wiki can come later... I really loved your transcripts as well~

Like you guys, I haven't had much free time recently, so my transcript for The Lightyear Factor is coming along rather slowly. I'm barely at the part when Zurg first enters the alternate universe!

Anyway, I'm happy to continue producing transcripts after this one - like you say Steel, all of us doing them will save loads of time!

by **Pythonmelon** Fri Dec 02, 2011 4:33 pm

yeah, the action kills me. sometimes the dialogue is difficult to get. i mean, i had to watch some places four or five times before i got what people were saying in 'The Slayer' because someone was either getting electrocuted of blown up all the time.

by **Ranger-Nova** Fri Dec 02, 2011 9:39 pm

There are still a few words in some of my transcripts that I couldn't get. Usually it's something Zurg says. He mumbles way too much.

by **Pythonmelon** Sat Dec 03, 2011 12:11 pm

yeah... and XR gives me trouble too. He's always either mumbling or getting blown up~ =.=

by **Ranger-Nova** Sat Dec 03, 2011 10:45 pm

There have been a number of occasions where he starts mumbling something to himself (usually complaining about something) and I just write down as much I can understand before he gets to incomprehensible

by **Pythonmelon** Sun Dec 04, 2011 6:19 am

Yeah... so far I havn't run into anything I can't figure out without rewatching a couple times though

by **Ranger-Nova** Thu Dec 15, 2011 2:16 pm

Well, I wasn't really feeling inspired to do Root of Evil (I will get to it eventually), so I did Speed Trap instead. Here it is:

Augh *slaps forehead* Im hardly started on Nos-4-a2, sorry!

by **Ranger-Nova** Thu Dec 15, 2011 7:37 pm

Don't worry, there's no rush. Smile

by **Pythonmelon** Thu Dec 15, 2011 7:38 pm

^^ i should finish during my two-week christmas break

by **SteffieMusings** Sat Dec 17, 2011 2:52 am

Thank you so much for the episode transcripts as I appreciate it a lot.

If I may ask, how long did it take to do one episode?

by **Ranger-Nova** Sat Dec 17, 2011 4:13 am

That depends on if I do it all at once, or take breaks. Three or four hours without breaks, I think. That's why I spread the work out over a day, so I don't have to sit typing for several hours straight.

Are there any episodes in particular you'd like to see? Because so long as I have the entire episode (there are a few I'm missing parts of), I'd be happy to do them.

by **Pythonmelon** Mon Dec 19, 2011 7:46 am

Nos-4-a2

Agh! my computer keeps going screwey so I'll just give you guys a link to my transcript of Nos-4-a2 i finished two days ago

Spoiler:

by **Ranger-Nova** Fri Dec 23, 2011 12:56 am

I tried going there, but I can't seem to find it. It's probably just me, but I'd like to know if anyone else can see it.

by **Steel** Fri Dec 23, 2011 3:42 am

I can see it, but I think it'd be better to have it in the actual thread, so I took the liberty of copy-pasting Pythonmlon's link into her post for efficiency! Smile

by **Ranger-Nova** Fri Dec 23, 2011 4:58 am

Thanks, Steel.

by **Pythonmelon** Fri Dec 23, 2011 6:13 am

thanks! ^^

by **Ranger-Nova** Fri Jan 20, 2012 4:55 am

I've just finished The Planet Destroyer. My computer's being silly and won't let me put it in spoilers, so Steel, could you fix it for me?

Here it is:

by **Steel** Fri Jan 20, 2012 9:28 am

Fixed and added to the first post!

And before I cut this post shorter than 30 words, which would be a no-no, I've got the following question: who's still doing these episode transcripts and who's chosen which episode to do? Or is it just a free-for-all, first-come-first-serve sort of thing now?

by **Mod** Fri Jan 20, 2012 9:38 am

I've volunteered to do...Wirewolf, Star Smasher, Ancient Evil, Large Target and Shape Stealer.
