Yes, Dan volunteers this information, but it seems weird to actively comment on it. I get where you are coming from, but best off left alone.

It's not creepy when he openly discusses it on podcasts, ones where he gives relationship advice.
I haven't listened to a Danswers for a long time. The ones I listened to he always had a new girlfriend and admitted that he isn't in relationships for very long.

rather than picking dads, someone volunteer to be Alex's uncle
Aw poor Alex. Someone hook him up. What's Donald Stirling up to these days?
I have two uncles but neither of them is remotely racist. :/
So, why don't we figure out GB's production schedule until January 4th?
We have "mandatory content":
How many Quick Looks are almost certain (stuff like Just Cause 3) before the holidays?
Will there be time for another playdate or COOA ?
Which beloved features can we schedule with the available resources?
Please factor in an average of 0.3 failed recordings, as well as 1 random sick staffer per week.
Bonus points if you are Alex's new favorite uncle and help him coordinate the guest top 10s.

I just hope for a regular Bombcast with both GBWest and GBEast.

Aw, I'll be your uncle, Alex. Heck, I can prove that I'm the best going by the cert I got.
That'd be great, I hope their new podcast room allows for 7-8 people. Probably more comfortable than the rigged table from last year.
approximate timestamp? I don't much listen to beastcast anymore
I think Drew or Jeff said that it does.
The "potential for video" out of that room gives me hope as well.

They have had the capability to steam out of the podcast room since joining CBSi and have never used it. They continue to not use it in the new studio as well.
What ending you get?
(Witcher 3 Spoilers)
'best' one where Ciri becomes a Witcher. Unfortunately I messed up the ordering of something and the Radovid quest got bugged/completed and so Emhyr ended up dying and lots of bad stuff happened in the North but pretty happy with everything else!

Yeah, Jeff said on his Mixlr that it fits 8 people and that they are looking into doing video podcasts as well in a way that is affordable and the audio version wouldn't suffer as well.
I hope they keep that to special occasion podcasts, like interviews etc. The audio almost always suffers from video versions of podcasts because people being filmed tend to play up to the camera, stuff that doesn't come through the audio recording. It's probably a selfish opinion since I'll always listen to the audio version and some people might get something out of video podcasts, but there you are.

I am an uncle but no one's yelling at me during family gatherings. Guess I need to work on my racism.
Yes and its released last week between Xmas and New Years.
that's about right.

I kind of miss the days of Jeff being super into achievements. I'd love to see streams of him playing shitty games for the sake of achievements.
Have they said that it'll be the second week of December this year? It was the first week of December last year IIRC. It would make sense because Brad has said that they'll have a few days with Just Cause 3 before the GOTY discussions.

Did you guys put the Bombcast somewhere? I can't find it.

Jeff's segment ends and instantly The Lobby goes from good to terrible.
That's some eldritch horror, dawg.
They have for at least the last few years. A few newer moves that are used by people who didn't make the roster cut along with moves from older games that got left out because hey look over there something shiny.

My uncles are really great. Now my dad, he's a true pice of shit.
You weirdo.

My Racist uncle moved to Australia. Fuck you uncle Mike.

Something I just thought about with the coming holiday season and my garbage internet, how would a PS4 do in the day one patch world?

I'm trying to work out in my head how this can happen.
I'm sure I've read it in a doujin before.

Patches can be pretty big sometimes 1-2gig or more, and a lot of games download some of the DLC in a patch even if you don't actually have the DLC.
They finished deliberations on 8 December 2014 and 12 December 2013. In 2011 they were super late and didn't finish until 20 December.
It was very easy to find this info as Jeff (and sometimes Brad) tweets the same "White Smoke" joke every year - or nearly every year, I couldn't find one for 2012.
