As I am not in act 3 shall I also read Gines de Passamonte? There are quite a few roles in act 3 that need to be filled so I could help by doing one of them.
Thanks, Alan! It actually turns out that you've got two lines in Act 3... but they're here in this file! Probably because the page that begins Act 3 is missing from that original scan! I've added act 3 of Nicholas as a new section in MW.

All of the lines for both acts are here, sounding good, and you've caught all the fesses. I'm prepared to pronounce both act 2 and act 3 as PL OK (with an editing note for Todd), but if I could trouble you to split them up, I think that'll make the editing easier.

So, optional:
Could you put the last two lines (starting @3:20) into a separate file for act 3?
Could you also remove the scene markers @2:54 and @beginning of file?

6:49

Thanks, Todd
Ah, and now we meet our brave hero! He sounds every bit ready for derring-do, along with his worldly-minded squire. :D

Act 1 is ready for the PL OK, with just a question on proper-noun pronunciation.

I see "Dulcinea", and I hear "dull-see-AWN-ah", both @2:51 and @6:32.
I know you've said it doesn't matter much so long as each reader is consistent, but I'd expected to hear it closer to "dull-sin-NAY-ah", so just want to be sure this is how you wanted it!

I'm out of time, so I'll have to circle back for act 2 a bit later.

Here is Quixote Act 3 for PL.

YES - I will change Dulcinea pronunciation throughout these. Old eyes and less than perfect scan, with all my attention on the f's and s's....

Thanks, Todd

Act 1 spot PL complete - PL OK! :thumbs:

Act 2, two optional notes:
@6:31, page 34, I hear the other pronunciation for "Dulcinea"
@2:28, page 28, I think the additional thing he asks is a "plaster", to bandage his head-wound

Act 3, found "Dulcinea" in these places:
@8:54, page 57
@8:09, page 55
@2:45, page 50

But once those are done, PL OK. :)

Alan,
For the moment, I'd prefer not. You are in both Acts 2 and 4 on either side of 3, and it might get confusing.
I will review this ruling as we get closer to complete.
Thanks, Todd
Thanks Todd
redrun has pointed out that I do have some lines in act 3 so that rules it out anyway :(

Fixes made to Quixote Act 2.
Act 2, two optional notes:
@6:31, page 34, I hear the other pronunciation for "Dulcinea"
@2:28 (ACTUALLY @4:29), page 28, I think the additional thing he asks is a "plaster", to bandage his head-wound
Fixes made to Quixote Act 3.
Act 3, found "Dulcinea" in these places:
@8:54, page 57
@8:09, page 55
@2:45, page 50
Both ready for Spot PL.

Thanks, Todd

Sorry for the wonky timestamp! :oops:

Act 2 is PL OK! :thumbs:

For act 3, I think the last of the old takes got pushed back rather than replaced, I hear both if I start @8:52.
