Sunday, at some point. I don't want to be interrupted in the middle of it so I might start about one hour earlier than usual.

Got a more exact time? I'm always up for a little riffing/torture/unbelieveably stupid shit, so I'd want to show up.

EDIT: Also a link to your SynchTube? It's a bit difficult to find amidst the sea of links in the OP :pinkieshrug:

I'm going to assume that he's going to be in his own synch room ( http://www.synchtube.com/r/numsOic ), and as for the time I'm guessing that an hour before usual is gonna mean before the usual time of 7 PM EST, so maybe sometime around 6 PM EST.

I'm still finishing up the ending of Angel's Friends, which should just be around 2 hours and a half (so from 10-12 am EST) in my room.

There are time zone converters :pinkieshrug: but if you're AST, the time should be just about 10:59 am, which is just about eleven? Are you sure if it isn't just now 10:00 AM, that you aren't in fact EST?

Let me Clarify, the Timezone I'm using on the Board is AST, [UTC -4]. I don' t really keep track of my actual Timezone outside of stuff on boards like this.

EDIT: Nevermind, you're right. I just didn't have the Daylight Savings Time box checked.

What up folks. Last year, I attempted a Resident Evil synchtube that didn't go so well because I'm fucking terrible at scheduling shit and Capcom really hates people uploading its garbage on youtube unless it's gameplay footage. Chunky just reminded me that we should do another one in honor of Resident Evil 6 coming out this year in all its stupid-as-fuck glory. I'm scheduling this synchtube for September 29th as kind of a pre-release party of some sort. I am going to try to make it an all-day synchtube so people can pop in at any time. I'll attempt to start it at 10 AM MST (9 AM PDT, 11 AM CDT, Noon EST, 5 PM GMT, 3 AM UTC, etc.)

Among some game speedruns, we'll watch (or at least try to watch) the movies starring Milla Jovovich's midriff and the CGI movie, Degeneration. We'll also try to watch the Dead Space animated movie like we attempted last year. This time I'm going to go through all the fucking parts so we don't get a big fat: "video has been removed due to copyright infringement" like last year.

Here's the room: http://www.synchtube.com/r/Contralculus

I am going to be REALLY busy all semester long since I am obtaining my undergraduate degree this year so this might be one of the few times I can interact with you guys for the next four months beyond the chunkychat D&D game. Hope to see you guys there! :excite:


edit: Okay, bad news. The movies have been thoroughly taken down on pretty much every single video host. Instead, we're going to watch ridiculous no-damage walkthroughs of RE4 and RE5 which is fine because the playlists I imported have twelve hours worth of footage on them. There's not going to be any commentary so the riffing is going to be in your hands! If people have any other good suggestions for this synchtube, either PM me through here or skype. (Name should just be Contra Calculus for Skype.)

How do Synchtubes work? Do you just throw random videos up and save the playlist? How do you make it autoplay?

I think you did it right? To make it autoplay you just press play and depending on who is hosting, it will play for everyone else who joins a room. This is the place you would go to schedule a synchtube. As for playlists, you can just select "import" and give them the playlist URL.

Just when I thought Angel's Friends couldn't get even dumber, that movie happens. I unfortunately had to miss the last 20 or so minutes due to a college dorm meeting (over general rules and crap like that, the stuff everybody already knows but we need to have a reminder about it because SOMEBODY is going to go against them at some point and we all need to be reminded), but it sounds like all I missed was some excellent riffing/complaining about plot points that had no significance whatsoever.

It makes me cringe as to what I can only imagine will happen in S2, IF anything happens in season 2.

I'm surprised 14 people showed up for the Angel's Friends showing, considering that I never actually confirmed the time. I'm just happy to get that out of my system so we can move on to... Puppy in My Pocket!

Eventually.

As far as I can tell, right and wrong are just points scored in a game, and humanity are the pieces.

The portrait turning evil isn't an "oh no wrong is spreading" but more "oh no my team is losing I am a bad coach".

This cartoon makes me question the nature of good and evil and if such things actually have meaning. Not many can do that.

The moral of the story is "ANGEL'S FRENS!"

When is the next MLP Tales paintube? That's the one I've been "looking forward" to seeing.

There was a recent one run by fenster, posted in this thread. I only got there from episode 16 onward, so I'm watching all the previous ones by myself.

I think Angel's Friends would be a good way to ease you into the nightmare you wish to join in the partaking of. I believe nums is going to do a second running of it this week at some point.

Only one? I watched the seven of them. I tried to figure out a way to properly livestream under Linux just to run it as a paintube, but I couldn't figure it out. If anyone else is willing, I heartily recommend this show for paintube purposes.

Paintubes really could use more drinking games.

Any time someone does a butt dance, take a shot.
Any time an unnecessarily long monologue is crammed into 10 seconds of unrelated footage, take two shots.
Any time Masaokis(sp) shows anything connected to the water system of his house, take a shot in the eye.
Any time a character has an awkward non-verbal reaction, slap your wrist.
Any time the tension is so think you could cut it with a knife, eat a half-stick of butter.
Any time someone bails in the middle of a paintube, smash the can against your forehead, whether it's empty or not.
Any time someone makes a joke about peeing in the shower, run a lap around the house.

...OK, never mind, there's too much that goes on in paintubes that necessitates drinking. It's a bad idea.

See the new show that everyone’s been casually mentioning!
This Sunday, Aug 26th!
All 8 currently released episodes! (Running time: approx 3:30 hours)
3:30 pm EST! (1:30 MST)
Probably in my Livestream room: http://www.livestream.com/casualviewing


Image

Image

Gravity Falls follows twins Dipper and Mabel, their Grunkle (Great Uncle) Stan, and the employees of The Mystery Shack as they face paranormal perils and cryptozoological adventures out in wilds of Oregon, USA. Episodes tend to go a bit off-the-wall as they reach their climax, but I wouldn’t want to spoil anything. It’s like Twin Peaks/Deadly Premonition, for kids!

I was one of the fortunate few to follow this show from Ep 1, so I guess that earns me some bragging rights. :smug: But that’s not important. What is important is that this show is really good and personally recommended. I’m sure most of you have probably caught wind of this show and it’s time to see what it’s all about. See it with your friends! Laugh! Cry! But mostly laugh!

Warning: This will probably be on Livestream, because it’s being kept off Youtube. So resolve your bellyaching now.

Bonus:

Well my brother constantly watches Disney, so I get to see all the shows when they come out, even the terrible ones. Ha! :smug:
Help me.

Anyways, I was just thinking about rewatching all the episodes, so I will try and come.
Does anyone have a good way of figuring out all this timezone stuff? :modesty:

I only watched the first episode of Gravity falls and it seemed decent, but everyone keeps raving about it so I guess I'll check out the other eps too.

Pony paintubes will probably be relegated to the Ponies Synchtube thread in the pony forum, so if you/anyone wants to do something again with that, do so there.
