My iTunes downloaded all Giant Bombcast episodes last night... on the Bombcast feed and the Bombin feed. What the hell haha... 1000 podcasts!

Time for a rerun!
My phone only downloaded the latest episode (non-premium RSS feed), sounds like I got lucky. Not that it'd have room to download much more..

Random Giant Bomb content.
Many thanks, I knew somewhere out there the community would have a solution.

First thing I got directed to using this was one of the greatest QL of all time!

I endorse this technology!
But is this something that actually happens?
Even in this thread I dont think I've seen anyone imply they do that.
My premium podcast feed tried to pull that shit on me too. I caught it in the act and put a stop to it. Fuckin' iTunes, man. Did 343 work on this shit?
nm it's GB's fault I bet Drew and Danny are responsible.

Looks like Bombin in the AM was added to the main feed, so I know have about 50 episodes of that on my phone.
Everything was added to every feed, more or less. Seems to be fixed now.

Weird, Beyondpod hasn't picked up any extra podcasts from the premium streams.
Oh, well there you go.

Weirdly enough the all male cast was specifically used to target female gamers.
The fujoshi are pleased.

I had to unfollow Brianna after about a week on twitter. She's absolutely insufferable. I do admire her confidence & commitment to fight all this bullshit happening but her attitude is awful.
I've always enjoyed Giant Bomb as a venue where dudes talk about games (and whatever else). Obviously a woman (like Mary) can come into the mix and fit right in, but their rapport always seemed so routed in 'dudes shooting the shit and being dudes'. Don't know why that's viewed by some as an inherently bad thing, even if I understand and appreciate calls for diversity.

Nah, while I have defended giantbomb on hiring Dan and still do, more diversity is never a bad thing. There's nothing to say that a woman or other people who aren't straight white dudes won't fit into their style.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
I can tell that I live a good and respectable life cause I don't know what that means.
That's why GB should steal Mary whenever they can. And Alexa.
It's nothing dirty, Jebus.
I agree, of course. And I don't mean to say that Jeff wouldn't ever want to bring on a woman - obviously not.
I just find it frustrating how folk like Brianna regurgitate these sly little quips in such a way that makes the guys appear mean-spirited or, dare I use the massively overused and misunderstood word, 'misogynist'.
For all the good intentions people might have had at the time, Dan's hiring revealed a new height of ultra-liberal stupidity on this stuff. (I would say the same for 'Shirtgate' as well, by the way...)
We can just go back in previous threads and re-post this discussion, we've had it a number of times before. I'm sure it'll come up again, especially around E3. My guess is that if there's another hire, Jeff will hire a woman to begin to introduce some diversity into the group. Cara would obviously be my pick, but with the visa rules etc. that's probably never going to be very realistic.

You're welcome Giant Bomb GAF thread.
You are the best Danny!
Even before the whole hiring thing, her GB call outs have been weird. Then there was the recent interview with a shitty youtuber with like 4 GB call outs when pressed for examples.
Yeah their editorial is all male, but when it comes to identifying issues in the industry, GB is small fry and not even close to the most egregious (how many other publications gave Zoe Quinn a platform when nobody really knew who she was?).
Then again, the specific and near-libelous way she went after Jeff on the forums makes me think there is either a personal, alternate agenda, or there's other issues there.

Yeah but you don't have dash and double jump from CoD:AW do you

That's only cause the mount is even slower. I constantly use my Charge ability to get anywhere cause I feel like a slug otherwise.
Also I just encountered some shards that you can only get by a couple of precise jumps. Whoever thought it was a good idea to do that with their horrible erm "jumping system" needs to be punished.

Yeah, but you dismount everytime you encounter an enemy and you can't pick stuff up. I never use the mount, really.

Oh, no wonder the GB discussion seemed to have died down.
Welp, it's been fun reading and chatting with you all over the last 10 threads. Guess I'll see you again the next time I accidentally click the wrong tab on the GAF navbar.

Subscribing threads helps a lot.
I thought the same thing when he made the comment on the ql. Looked just fine to me.

Jintor I have always wanted to ask you this. Did you really set yourself on fire?
No, my old avatar was permanently aflame though, back in the days of animation

When you read a tag like jintor's you have to ask the hard hitting questions!
Have you considered a career in gaming journalism?
Some people should not be allowed a twitter account - for their own good. The public should not have access to their unfiltered stream of consciousness. It is why the smart politicians rarely tweet at all or at least have a PR person do it for them. You can very easily kill your career in 140 characters or less.
