Can I have Lawyer 2?

(It's not exactly a Notary, but close enough --- and it rhymes! -- something that's been lacking in our other Moliere recording....)

Cori and I continued to do most of the short story collections - actually there is only one left that we didn’t do, and it was in fact the one with Scandal in Bohemia! Actually, more than that.... Of the 5 collections: - "The Adventures of ..." and "The Memoirs of ..." have collaborative readings, ...

21:50 Richard Gates / Richard Oats (I had to giggle at that one :lol: ) It's funny how the tiniest stray mark on a printout can have a big effect on how it's read. I once had the line "Give him air", which really looked like it said "give him sir" (which I thought was a very odd expression...)

The most famous of his plays in Pseudolus, a classic story of a clever and witty servant having to serve less clever people. It is the basis of Stephen Sondheim's A funny thing happened on the way to the forum. I tried finding some interest in recording Pseudolus some time ago. I had trouble gettin...

OK, this should have all additions and corrections:

Sorry, some unexpected things came up, and I most likely won't get a single quiet moment near my computer today :| I'll get it done when I can, but at the moment it's just a bit outside of my control! No problem. After I posted that, I remember that there was a bit *I* had to re-record which I have...

I've made the corrections. Just waiting on Foon's character description, and I'll re-upload it.

The character descriptions and "nudges him" were missing from the audio files. The jumbles are a bit weird. When I went through it, I found (and fixed) two of them, though I have no idea how they happened. I'm beginning to feel I can't trust my audio editor to correctly save files. And the missing d...

Here is the Notary:

(I cleared it with silverquill to take over the role --- because I do notaries around here, dammit! )

And, finally, A Day Well Spent (which also describes my day editing it....)

(If I ever try BCing something again, I think I'll do something shorter with fewer roles....)

A couple of thoughts: - I like the general idea of a "rewards" system for participating. If we compare this to the wildly successful site StackOverflow.com (which is also completely volunteer driven), one of the main things that drove participation there is their system of "reputation points" and ba...

OK. I'm in the midst of editing it now. wonderful news. That means we might even make it in time for the one-year-birthday of this project. :D I'll PL it as soon as it's up. Hmmm.. That gives me to the end of the day.... Don't think I'm going to make that, but soon after... Fortunately, unlike reco...

Since you are the last role coming in AND the editor, I figure there's not need to do double-work in this case. Most often the editors wait for all the roles to come in, then upload their part in the finished file already.

OK. I'm in the midst of editing it now.

Edit: If you're editing this play, you don't really need to send in your own role. Just send in the whole piece - it will be easy to re-do any missing lines.

Well, I figured someone else should PL it.

Also, I guess it a bit later now that Availle has already recorded the Narrator, but finally wrote to my friend who work at the theater company which just stage "Charlie's Aunt" and ask him about the stage directions. He response: As for your Stage Direction question, I personally was stumped. The A...
