Zwollie I've always said 'get on Sackcast!' Now you're actually trying! But really everyone, you should let Zwollie on just so he can do his impressions. | 2010-01-14 09:22:00 Author: Leather-Monkey Posts: 2266 |
Ill do it as i have already been on the podcast. | 2010-01-14 15:44:00 Author: bakscratch Posts: 258 |
Well we have quite a few wanting the new position so we have a task to prove who is best for the job: We simply want you to record a 1-2 min audio clip of you talking about a LBP topic. If you can't think of any here are a few suggestions: 'Bomb Survivals and the Best Way to Play Them' 'The Two Types of Floaty and Tinfoil the Card Metal' 'Little Big Etiquette - How to and not to gad about Littlebigplanet' Upload your clips to a filehosting site and send the link to me by PM. I await your recordings with eager anticipation | 2010-01-14 17:50:00 Author: Shermzor Posts: 1330 |
So basically talking to ourselves? Okidoki, if you say so!! Would be fun if you could send an invite on skype to all the participants and test it out in conversation since the sackcast is never a "one voice job". The fun about this podcast is the interaction of the members and an enviroment I personally work best in. EDIT: I'll do it as soon as I can, might be over the weekend since I have some stuff to do right now and my cast gets off tomorrow (hurray for that one, btw) | 2010-01-14 18:55:00 Author: Zwollie Posts: 2173 |
I think I may be too busy to participate in this. Wish I could though. Plus I don't have a mic anyway :/ | 2010-01-14 19:03:00 Author: Plasmavore Posts: 1913 |

The fun about this podcast is the interaction of the members and an enviroment I personally work best in. I have to agree, it's honestly not the same when you're alone. But I'll do what I must. I'll prepare a clip shortly; just hope I don't get locked up in an asylum Good luck to all my competitors. May the best conversationalist win. | 2010-01-14 20:55:00 Author: Astrosimi Posts: 2046 |
Ill do it as i have already been on the podcast. Something tells me they wont be hiring you. | 2010-01-14 21:08:00 Author: Zac Posts: 165 |
Hmm. I'm not sure I know how to record an audio clip of myself. I'll try, though. | 2010-01-14 22:00:00 Author: SLS10 Posts: 1129 |
Hmm. I'm not sure I know how to record an audio clip of myself. I'll try, though. Download Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/), then watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGeZn44HbdU | 2010-01-14 22:05:00 Author: Leather-Monkey Posts: 2266 |
Thank you, sir. Very handy. I had previously downloaded Audacity, but only to edit sound clips for my music production. | 2010-01-14 22:11:00 Author: SLS10 Posts: 1129 |
Ill do it as i have already been on the podcast. You could hardly call yourself a conversationalist after that though Bak could you lol | 2010-01-15 08:40:00 Author: GruntosUK Posts: 1754 |
I would love to listen to zwollie but he would probably steal the show. it will be the zwollie cast by february. | 2010-01-15 09:26:00 Author: robotiod Posts: 2662 |
I would love to listen to zwollie but he would probably steal the show. it will be the zwollie cast by february. No I wouldn't, if I wanted to do that I would just start my own podcast called Kuzcotop..I mean Zwoltopia!! This is not supossed to be the lame comedy hour, it is a podcast about LBP. I adapt to my surroundings, not to say I wouldn't insert the odd lame joke here and there though. | 2010-01-15 11:35:00 Author: Zwollie Posts: 2173 |
Well it certainly seems like Zwollie is the favorite I'm still awaiting audio snippets so i'm not going to set a deadline quite yet since i have a busy weekend so I'll need to see if even i have time to go through them but i imagine it'll be sometime next week I'll cut this off. Good luck all! p.s Crush Zwollie with your united voices muahahahhaha *cough* sorry did someone say something | 2010-01-15 17:15:00 Author: Shermzor Posts: 1330 |
idk about anyone else but I've been graced with Zwollie's impressions and sense of humor on many occasions and he's hilarious, witty, and a fantastic conversationalist. SLS10 is really funny too. K - that's my 2 cents. Good Luck everyone! | 2010-01-15 18:23:00 Author: Morgana25 Posts: 5983 |
Hmmmm... Sounds tempting... I will use the next week to think through. | 2010-01-15 18:26:00 Author: moonwire Posts: 1627 |
Name: John Livingston AKA Fullgorr Age: 17 Reason to join SackCast: I love podcasts (listen to several a week) and am a very active LittleBigPlanet community member. I am a genuinely funny person who could add my own Canadian flavour onto the podcast. On second thought, that wouldn't taste too good. I'm sure everyone would enjoy my voice caressing their ears if I am chosen. Can meet all requirements (yes/no): Yeppers! Anything else: I hope you consider me, I have a decent knowledge of audacity and am a very experienced LBP creator. Cheers! | 2010-01-15 20:12:00 Author: FULLGORR Posts: 245 |
A little question: Must the sackperson you choose have to be active on the sackcast forum, or is it ok with just LBPC? | 2010-01-16 15:17:00 Author: moonwire Posts: 1627 |
Its ok with just LBPC. | 2010-01-16 16:13:00 Author: DanC Posts: 433 |
@DanC: ok, thank you! Said by: Shermzor Upload your clips to a filehosting site and send the link to me by PM. Any recommendations? | 2010-01-16 20:00:00 Author: moonwire Posts: 1627 |
You can send an email to contactus@sackcast.com and attach the file. | 2010-01-17 09:29:00 Author: DanC Posts: 433 |
@DanC: ok, thank you! Said by: Shermzor Any recommendations? Mediafire is pretty good but you can email them if you want like Dan said. http://www.mediafire.com/ | 2010-01-17 10:59:00 Author: Shermzor Posts: 1330 |
Ok, thank you, for the help! | 2010-01-17 15:18:00 Author: moonwire Posts: 1627 |
Don't forget to send in a voice recording guys! I look forward to hearing some great stuff | 2010-01-17 19:21:00 Author: hilightnotes Posts: 1230 |
I've done it! I've sent in my audio clip. Unfortunately, due to size restrictions (gosh darn Hotmail) I had to create a smaller file size, and, therefore, had to record a completely different audition file. But hey, this one has beatboxing in it. From me! | 2010-01-17 21:20:00 Author: SLS10 Posts: 1129 |
I'm sending something right now. | 2010-01-17 22:47:00 Author: Zwollie Posts: 2173 |
Can someone please put up all of these after the person has been chosen? I have a feeling they will be hilarious and who doesn't want to hear SLS10 beatbox? | 2010-01-17 22:53:00 Author: iGotFancyPants Posts: 1355 |
I'm not so sure if I want my audition to be made public but on the other hand...I'm dying to hear some beatboxing out of SLS10. @ SLS10: Rapidshare, Yousendit, Sendfile, ect..., are all free and can be used to upload files to 100 mb so you can send your longer audition. | 2010-01-17 22:59:00 Author: Zwollie Posts: 2173 |
NameOAcireXO Age: 26 Reason to join SackCast: Well because I have all the skills mentioned, plus I'm absolutely addicted to LBP and would love to contribute to the community in any way possible. While I have a lot to learn, I do believe that becoming a member of the SackCast team will add on to my present knowledge of LBP. Can meet all requirements (yes/no): Yes, The only thing that would hinder the requirements for the SackCast Team would be that I am still a fairly new creator, but I am doing my studying. I am a web designer, and a life coach, so I can design, and I can speak (with a very high vocabulary) I'm in collage so linguistics are my thing, when I'm not in a hurry to finish. I have ample time on my hands, because I run my own businesses and hardly ever sleep, so I believe that I might have the requirements for this job Anything else: If not speaking, I'll be willing to write blogs and test levels. I don't have many posts but check out what's going on in the community daily. | 2010-01-17 23:59:00 Author: XOAcireXO Posts: 57 |
You want to hear my audition? The beatboxing is only in the background of the audio clip as I talk "my origins." I suppose I could upload it to one of your silly websites and share it later. | 2010-01-18 01:39:00 Author: SLS10 Posts: 1129 |
I'm sending something right now. Where did you send it? I checked the contactus email and I don't see anything make sure you sent it to contactus@sackcast.com!! By the way, we're likin' the enthusiasm | 2010-01-18 01:47:00 Author: hilightnotes Posts: 1230 |

Yep 'twas good | 2010-01-18 02:01:00 Author: hilightnotes Posts: 1230 |
Yep 'twas good Hooray! I'm no longer ashamed of myself. Additionally, you have my permission to publicly release the sound file if you choose to do so. It'll be good fun. | 2010-01-18 02:20:00 Author: SLS10 Posts: 1129 |
*slaps head* I'll send in an audio tomorrow if I can get someplace quiet, it's kinda loud in here.... If not, may the best sack win, and I'll go back to just playing the game lol | 2010-01-18 02:21:00 Author: XOAcireXO Posts: 57 |

By the way, we're likin' the enthusiasm Oh darn, I did like Shermzor asked: "Upload your clips to a filehosting site and send the link to me by PM.". I will also send it to the contact e-mail now. | 2010-01-18 05:22:00 Author: Zwollie Posts: 2173 |
I shall also send my clip in tomorrow. I shall not disappoint, so fear not! | 2010-01-18 08:07:00 Author: Astrosimi Posts: 2046 |

Argh they're all so good; it's gonna be really tough to pick someone Ugh...if we must... FIGHT TO THE DEATH!! | 2010-01-18 17:55:00 Author: Zwollie Posts: 2173 |
You already died in your own audition tape Zwollie | 2010-01-18 18:18:00 Author: Shermzor Posts: 1330 |
You already died in your own audition tape Zwollie ...True...does that mean I'm disqualified? | 2010-01-18 18:21:00 Author: Zwollie Posts: 2173 |
Ugh...if we must... FIGHT TO THE DEATH!! Bring it, I'll use my words to defeat you! My questions is why can't there be 2 or 3 new members? Zwollie and I could face off in a rap battle while SLS10 beatbox's. | 2010-01-18 18:24:00 Author: FULLGORR Posts: 245 |
Bring it, I'll use my words to defeat you! My questions is why can't there be 2 or 3 new members? Zwollie and I could face off in a rap battle while SLS10 beatbox's. A Belgian/Canadian rap combo supported by some sweet US beats? Interesting, very interesting indeed. | 2010-01-18 18:28:00 Author: Zwollie Posts: 2173 |

Like Shermz said, thanks for the submissions! They're all very good and it'll be no easy decision! | 2010-01-18 22:23:00 Author: hilightnotes Posts: 1230 |
