Kinda like this...the Balance "Trap" from National Treasure 2.
I think we've maintained that the whole series is told through EVERYones journal, not just Michael's. However, it could be Michael reading through them all, so Michael's take on everyone elses take I guess. But I think you're wrong on the "piece together Saul's story", when Michael said it was pieced together, I think he was only referencing the goings-ons within helicopter, and when we jumped to saul's perspective it wasn't Michael's piecing Sauls, it was actually saul's account, since he's alive up to this point.Quote:

People always reference "Saul was a good soldier" in s1 without remembering the contextualisation that Michael was explaining that despite that he hasn't been promoted, due to his insubordination. What I mean is that yes you could also make some case for a double reading, but there is very little evidence for it, and all it is is a hunch.
Certainly there is some element of retrospectivity - that's how it's been structured from day one. And yeah I think Michael will conclude it at the end writing at least SOMETHING down. But a lot of this I think was written on the run, more or less a day after most of these events happened.
So: I am prepared to admit that the starting entry of season 4 can be an end of season 4 retrospective - michael's dying or alone or whatever. But I firmly believe that the original comments in s1 are more or less contemporary with their events.
Ofc KC's always been ambiguous at best, letting us play these mind games with each other before finally revealing how it plays out - we're supposed to have these arguments, that's how he's written it. I can't wait to find out what happens, if Michael fears death or not, if it does come to him, and how these journals pan out.
As a side note - Burt still needs to write down what happened in Chapter 23-24. Perhaps the fact it's five months later is why he was so "blah blah blah"ish and forgetful in Ch23? Who knows, not sure if KC thought that far ahead but not surprised if he did!
Wonderful to finally have my favorite audio drama back! :D
Nice intro, though I must say I kinda liked the piano version better. This is more sinister though... I guess. :)
Regarding the words the inkling spoke... I always heard it as "Die, die, die." I love the "Why (am I) alive, (let me) die!" theory quite a lot, though. Can't remember if that was mentioned in this topic or the one about WND55, or both... I keep confusing them. Hehe.a
What seemed a little odd to me was the missing "and this is now" in the beginning - looking forward to find out what that means...
BTW, anyone minding quickly explaining the piece of art for the chapter? My lack of sight kinda stops me from seeing it myself. :D
Best regards
Storm
when is the next episode? are they coming out every week...I've always waited and bought them from Audible.com, so I'm a newbie to this part of it.
Well, they usually tell you that in the end of the file. :)Quote:

3 episodes a month, occasional breaks for holidays or when schedules get too busy/the WA team is reppin at some award thing. As each chapter has three parts this generally means 3 weeks for each chapter before a weeks break. I believe the finale, chapter 48, will be a livestream non-stop episode again.
I think I'm gonna retire my belief that I heard the Inkling say "Alive." Unless it is mimicking Victor saying "alive" and Saul saying "blood" (On of the unintelligible utterances) then why would it want to express that it was alive. Did it wake up one morning and say, "Ah Crap! I'm a zombie now. But hey, I'M STILL ALIVE!! I've got to tell people that I'm not a George R. Romero Living Dead-Zombie but a 28 Days Later enraged cannibal. Hey, you there! Say, pal, I know y'all are freaking out about this whole zombie business, and believe me I would too, but this is all a big misunderstanding. See, I'm still aliv.... Chomp"

I'm not sure what you're referring to- what section?Quote:

How did that lead to Puck saying "they got rules here"? I'm just a little confused at why there was a bit of dialogue about the big stink of leaving ADLO bodies out front.
I think it's sort of a comment about Ft. Irwin.... almost like saying "They're just as bad here", since Ft. Irwin didn't allow them to bring anything in to investigate as well.Quote:

Also....I think it's significant that we left bodies of Inklings outside the walls. The Normals went back for their dead, what do you think Ink does for the bodies of his best soldiers?
Oh! Gotcha- Well, he can catch up now that's he's in the hospital, if he has some time. Those portions read are in fact on paper at some point.Quote:

Colony members would have stuck to the rules established by Marcus and Gatekeeper. Nothing infected comes within the walls. That's why there was that sarcastic underdone to Puck's line. He was doing what Michael asked him, the colonists were doing what has kept them safe.Quote:

Puck has improved in his accuracy with the .50 cal but my question is how the hell did the hunting party get outside the gates and not have Riley? If CJ survives the upcoming amputation will KC have a passing mention of the Drop Kick Murphy's song Sailing up to Boston and/or will we have to start calling Pegs by a different name?
Riley is probably off in the Park/farm fields with a bottle of Jack Daniels singing and pining for the loss of Angel.Quote:

Or *crackpot theory ahead*...Scratches from Inklings make normals? Bites from Inklings make ADLOs? so...its the Inkling drool that contains the zombie steroid virus!Quote:

To Kc: Thank you so much for being interactive with your listeners. It means so much to me to come on this forum and see your clear up confusions and respond to the questions we have. You rock!
And I am just awe-struck by how fantastic your writing is. Can't wait for Monday!
Or KC is playing evil puppeteer again, giving us information what we think clears up confusion only get more confused because us die hard fans are obsessed with plot theories, resulting in KC bursting out in a evil laugh behind his computer and telling the cast members the next day how he fooled us again....Quote:

Not every caliber is tapered but for the ones that are, the taper doesn't go away when the round is fired. Those are spent rounds.Quote:

Haven't checked. I remeber hearing squeals as they try to force the gate shut after bending it on the Beheometh. Could that be it? It would be right about the Datu Fix! Line
It maybe noise of the gate moving while Datu is fixing it as Art pointed out. Here is the noise isolated with human vocal frequencies removed. Note that the zombie voices are still in the human vocal range so it's neither of those.Quote:

How do you actualy remove that? What program do you use for it?
Audacity and the plugin pack. You select the section of audio and apply the desired effect. I use the vocals remover and low/high pass filters for focusing on a specific sound.Quote:
