PAX WEST INFO DUMP!
August 28th, 2017

Posted by Kathleen

Hey everyone! It’s that time of year again… PAX WEST!

This year pretty much the whole darn crew is going to be there (minus Paul and Alex, who have some fun things scheduled in Victoria) and as usual, we’ll have a table, some cool new merch, and we’ll be on a ton of panels!

First up, where can you can find us, touch us and possibly conduct commerce with us? At our cool table in Bandland! As in previous years, Bandland is located on level 6 of the WSCC, up at the very top of the large escalators.

Next… I mentioned cool new merch, so what is it? This year we have an embarrassment of Pinny Arcade Pins, where an embarrassment equals… five. We have a Spoopbucks pin and a four pack featuring your favourite technologically savvy cavemen Krog, Torg and Herc! You can pick up the new pins, as well as playmate, shirts, DVDs and card sleeves at the aforementioned Bandland table.

And finally… PANELS! We’re on so many panels this year, you’d need a schedule to keep track of them all. Thankfully, I have prepared that for you.

Moving Week!
August 8th, 2017

Greetings to one and all. Today marks the first day of the last week we are here at Moonbase Delta. So many emotions. Sad to be leaving this space behind, incredibly excited about our new space. But most importantly SO. FREAKING. BUSY! We spent this past Saturday putting a huge dent in the great packining, but there’s a whole lot more to be done. We’re going to do our best to make sure our schedule isn’t to mucked up over the next couple weeks. We’ll be streaming up until this coming Friday with a writing Crapshoot in the afternoon and Adam is going to take the normal AFK slot for the Gamehaus. Then we’ll be offline from Saturday-Tuesday, with the hope that we’ll be back Wednesday morning with the regularly scheduled streams. We also closed up the donation drive on Saturday for new Moonbase improvements. We are in a constant state of amazement when it comes to this communities generosity, and this was no different. Thanks to your incredible support the new Moonbase is going to be everything we’ve be dreaming of and then some. Thank you.

Now, let’s get going with some videos from the past week.

In an effort to slowly make sure all our old videos are on YouTube we’ve got an oldie but a goodie. Fear Itself [Originally Aired July 2012]

This week on Feed Dump, a big wreck, a game gone wrong and a bold escape.

CheckPoint covers stories on Itagaki Street, PUBG’s new skirt, Skyrim AI, Splatoon 2 mayonnaise, and Grimoire: Heralds of the Winged Exemplar.

As for Crapshots we have Kathleen and Cameron covering lesser known music genres and whatever the hell happened during last weeks Crapshoot.

 

It’s very warm.

Hello and welcome to the weekly LoadingReadyRun blog update. Please see below for today’s schedule.

NOW: This Intro
AFTER: New Moonbase/Move Update
AFTER THAT: The Videos
AFTER THAT EVEN MORE: Conclusion

Let’s talk about the new Moonbase. Nothing to tell you yet about a new location but we are actively working on it. In the mean time you may have noticed this weekend we have cancelled LoadingReadyLIVE! That’s because we need to start purging and packing. We’re going to do our best over the coming weeks/month to not let this move disrupt our content schedule. For some things that will be easier than others. So stick tight, be patient with us, and I promise we’ll come out the other side stronger than ever before.

Now, let’s talk videos.

Let’s kick us off with a brand new episode of Running Start. This week Paul and Graham check out NieR Automata.

This week on Feed Dump, a creative cook, a mysterious car, and a clear-cut case of nominative determinism.

CheckPoint has stories on the SNES Classic, Pokémon GO Fest, Hey! Pikmin, and The Gamer Gauntlet.

And of course the Crapshots. We’ve got Krog and Torg + Graham takes a personality test.

That’ll do it for this week. Peace y’all!

Greetings all and welcome to this, the weekly LoadingReadyRun Blog update post, and what a week it has been. As usual I’ve got a bunch of great videos to share with you but let’s get things started off with the big news from the week. WE’RE MOVING! Watch this and then join me below the embedded video.

Hi. So yah, this is a thing that is really happening. I don’t think I have anything to add that Graham didn’t cover in that video with the exception of two things.

  1. Holy hell! You’re reaction and unbelievable generosity thus far will go a LONG way to making this transition as painless as possible for us. Thank you so, so much.
  2. We’re going to leave the fundraiser open until August 5th. Feel free to head to our donation page to help with the move.

Now, let’s get to the videos from this past week.

First up it’s the latest episode of LoadingReadyLIVE! For anyone who doesn’t know, LRL is our twice monthly comedic variety show we live stream on Twitch TV [Click here to go directly to our Twitch Channel]

This week on Feed Dump, we cross a line. Several lines really. Also stories about people who can’t dance, can’t keep their cool, and can’t find their contact lenses.

Next up we have the Summer Episode of AnoAni, our quarterly recap Anime podcast with Cori, Ian, Heather and Beej.

And finally our double dose of The Crapshot.

And that will do it. Hope you all have a fantastic rest of the week and we’ll see you next Tuesday where the part of James the Blog updater will be played by 4 ducks in a trench coat. Can you tell the difference? Come back to find out.
