two! for the price of one!

Title: Able to Zoo
Author: [info]runpunkrun
Reader: Countess (the 7 is silent)
Fandom: SGA
Pairing: McShep
Length: 16:42; 5,134KB
Link: mp3; m4b
Point value: 5+2+14=21 (see cut tag for explanation)

ok, so the pairings in this story are:
john/ronon = 2
mcshep = 1
OT4 = 3
john/ofc = 2
elizabeth/ronon = 3
teyla/kate = 2
which makes a total of 13 pairing points. WOW.
also, i think the first vignette is john/atlantis (3), and i also think gamble is rodney/cadman (2), but i'm checking with punk to get her opinion before i award myself those points

i've got a question - can i post this to [info]sgapodfic? or should i wait until the challenge is over? what do y'all think?

Listening now. Sounds fine!

the 7 is silent! how did i not know this?

yay you for posting - i'm sorry i didn't manage to get you archive entries first, but you'll get them in a sec. the archive has been a little broken, and is currently a little molassesy on the admin side. i'm getting there!

and you didn't give yourself enough points for able to zoo. you can count each pairing that is actually inarguably present in the story. so 3 points for the 0t4, 3 points for the elizabeth/ronon, etc. the only thing you can't count is gen, even if some of the vignettes are gen - the other pairings overwhelm it in this case. go points crazy! shoot for the moon! (consistency is the important thing, and i'm not letting anyone be shy about claiming points, so you can't be either.) :D

and crosspost like a mad thing if you so desire. we like to share!

Okay, so ... question on the 'gen' thing.

As soon as the author listens and decides I haven't butchered her story, I'm going to post a story that is mostly gen, but does reference a pairing, even if the pairing isn't the focus and there's little more than a few mentions of 'you two are so doing it'. Can I claim gen and the pairing?

[info]podmod

April 12 2008, 19:18:34 UTC 4 years ago

you can claim gen or the pairing. my take is that while a story can contain a number of different pairings, it can't be both gen and ship or slash.

exception:
a story that's a collection of unrelated smaller stories. like in the query here.

there may be other exceptions out there.

jinjur, is that you? hey doll! how are you?

a, hee! the 7 is silent is mostly an inside joke with no one. lets see, who's like that? um, res maybe? isn't she resonant8? the 8 is silent. (also, doesn't that just sound funny? the 7 is silent? i might make an icon that says that. but, um, i digress)

b, thank you!

c, you did give me archive entries, those are the links i posted. you forget yourself with all the archive troubles. can i make you some tea?

d, oh wow! thats a lot of points. i'll have to go back through and check how many. DUDE! i win at this!

[info]podmod

April 12 2008, 19:23:58 UTC 4 years ago

it is! you can tell because my co-mods both use uppercase letters on occasion. :p

also, i think i use more exclamation marks!!

i am good, now that the archive is back up and i am ON VACATION!!!11!!!!1!!

a) you should totally have an icon that says that. and i think it's hilarious.

b) :D

c) tea would be awesome. i am working on updates simultaneously in safari and camino, and safari is a chump and doesn't show me where the links go when i lazily mouseover. i still have the files on my desktop, so i figured i hadn't put them up yet. but now i think probably i left them there so i would not forget to listen to them!

d) hee! you totally do!

[info]countess7

April 12 2008, 19:43:05 UTC 4 years ago

uppercase letters are for people with too much time on their hands:)

vacation! w00t! t-minus 2 1/2 days until i'm on vacation. sweet home carolina here i come! (we'll just forget about the 13 hour plane ride i have to take to get there)

you are too sweet! i do hope you like them. thingswithwings is a big fan of hers, but another friend told me i was maybe speaking to quickly on able to zoo. but i really didn't want to re-record. it took me forever to do because i was laughing so hard. (i feel a sneeze coming on!)

21 POINTS for 1 post! i'm totally amazed.

April 12 2008, 21:44:15 UTC 4 years ago

ok, i see now that while you did upload the files to your server, you did not actually make archive entries. eh, whatevs. the download links work.

i'm not worried about it. you've got your hands full!

(i'm still going to tell myself that you left them on your desktop because you wanted to listen to them. i prefer that:))

Oooooh! These look great! And the pairings for "Able to Zoo" are DEFINITELY intriguing! ha ha

Welcome to the wonderful world of podficcing! Looking forward to listening to these ...

[info]countess7

April 12 2008, 19:38:49 UTC 4 years ago

hey wow! thanks! i hope you like it!

but seriously, its such a cool collection of drabbles that i could have read it in a very low monotone and it would have still been awesome, because punk is just that good!

no, i am going to misattribute and there is NOTHING you can do about it. SO THERE.

heh. it'll be fixed in a sec.

Yea! I love both of those stories, and I'm so glad to have them to listen to. And thank you for doing the podbook too!

[info]countess7

April 13 2008, 14:52:06 UTC 4 years ago

I just thought I'd let you know I downloaded both podbooks from the links you posted and they both have the same 'Able To Zoo' covers.

Edited to add: And I just listened to 'broaden into boundless day' and wow, you do breathy sex noises really well...you kind of made me a little breathless just listening:) But I do love that story and somehow it's even more sad to me when I listen to it out loud, it makes me sad for *John* really:(

dodi! how are you?

i can't believe i never saw this comment. i'm so sorry i never replied.

first, thanks for letting me know about the covers. jinjur fixed them awhile ago, someone else commented somewhere else to let me know. but thanks to you too!

also, :::blush:::

i'm glad you liked the reading! i LOVE the story, my heart just breaks for john over and over again, even just thinking about it. meghan was very um, encouraging, about the sex noises. because i was all, really? aren't i just embarrassing myself? and she was all NO! its awesome! so, hee! thanks!

[info]dodificus

August 1 2008, 14:48:38 UTC 3 years ago

Better late than never:)

Also, it's kind of made me want to go relisten to the podfic again...so that's awesome!

aw, you make me want to *smish* you!

I just listened to "Broaden into Boundless Day" the other day, and your reading of it was excellent! I literally fanned myself when John said "Oh, Jesus, Rodney". You convey emotion and humor really well. Thanks so much for recording this fic! Now I'll have to pop the other story in this post onto my ipod *grins*

[info]countess7

July 28 2009, 12:07:04 UTC 2 years ago

hey, wow! that's such a lovely compliment. thank you so much!

i actually think the quality of both recordings are *horrible* because they were the first stories i ever recorded. i hadn't really figured it out and i had technical difficulties, and so i hear them now and i think they suck, but i haven't re-recorded them because i am lazy. *sigh* there's newer stuff that i think has better quality, but whatever. enjoy them!

and thanks again!

[info]were_duck

July 28 2009, 12:35:51 UTC 2 years ago

I didn't think it was that bad, though I have a fairly high tolerance for technical quality so long as the reader's inflection and pacing are excellent. But I will also keep my eye out for your newer recordings, thank you!
