Date/time: Thursday 15th March at 6pm until 9pm GMT

Location: Great temple of Balthazar ID1

this will be SI Radios first foray into Guild wars and I'm hoping that I will be getting a weekly slot at a better time for all to listen shortly, however, you can make requests through the SI Radio website and also by messaging me through my in game name Tyr Dominator

I'll be playing mostly Rock, Metal, Thrash and some Soundtracks and I'll do shout outs to anyone that messages me in game

To listen in click one of the following links for whatever media Player you use:


Your can also join us on IRC by clicking on the chat link on the website or adding the following to your IRC program:

irc.siradio.fm
#siradio


I will post more dates and times as I get them and as soon as the full show is up and running with my co-host Icecold (Preacher Timmy in game)

Hope to see you there

I'm not very familiar with SI Radio. I looked on the site and I get the idea it's a radio station for gamers. Could you explain kind of how it works? Is tied to any one specific game or many? Btw I listen to it for a while and I liked what I heard.

Oh blimey...

Ok, as you said, we are a station made by gamers, for gamers

We currently cover: *Deep Breath*

Auto Assault
City Of Heroes/Villains
EVE Online
Everquest II
Guild Wars
Matrix Online
Tabula Rasa

and we are also beta testing many others, including Age of Conan...

We have Strong ties with NCSoft and SOE and I hope to shortly become (considering if my show gets going well or not) becoming the SI Radio Guild Wars Community Rep, meaning that I will be covering any of the major Guild wars news, events and the like and bringing the information to you the players on my soon to start Guild Wars show

Oh, I am also looking for ideas for names for the new show... Anyone that has ideas can PM me here for more information and ideas for the show title and as soon as the show is up and running I will post more information here abotut he regular slot.... However, whenever you see me on the Weekly Schedule, I will be in Guild wars and messing around partying in a certain location that I will mention throughout the show

PvE from Temple of balth? umm, ok

Anyway, it has music which is a change straight away... this isn't a WoC rip, this is gaming radio for gamers

besides, the main show is going to cover PvE and PvP with information about the entire game and hopefully GW2 as and when we get the information

I'm guessing it's done akin to Shoutcast - online radio broadcasting. It's easiest through WinAMP, IMO - click on Add, then URL, then put the playlist url [xxx.pls] in, and hit play. Online radio is awesome - I did about 6 months of DJing myself. Good luck.

Why thank you...

Well, in a nutshell, i'll do two or three 3 hour shows a week on top of a set time show that i will do each week at a set time each week with my co host Icecold (Preacher Timmy)

We will have call ins through Vent, Skype etc and as we already work with NCSoft through COX and other games, i'm really, REALLY hoping that Gaile or Alex will share majorly important and breaking news throught he show (hell, i can dream)... we'll also cover tournaments and major pve things like events

a little off topic (sorry), but this interests me. Do you know when the beta will be opened up to the public? as the aoc forums say it isn't open at the moment.

Good luck with the show

Remember, we are a Multi country, 24/7 station and yes, we cover a lot of different games

One thing I will say though, we don't censore things, we are an adult station for adult gamers

You don't have to Mirage, get back under your bridge.

I heard a few people talking about this in-game, but unfortunately I knackered my computer speakers so can't listen atm. Keep up the good work though, hopefully I'll tune into the next one.

Ok guys, thanks for all the good words...

According to the station owner, I did good (maybe it was smashing his listener count on the first show that did it, thank you all for tuning in) @ 132 listeners and got the highest listener count of the year apparently

Anyway... now I need your help!

Myself and DJ icecold are about to put forward our plan for the main Guild wars show each week and we want your input for the show, just as ANet wanted player feedback for the game, we want player and listener feedback and involvement in the show... Music you want to hear, things you want mentioned, what your guilds are upto (especially as people will very quickly get sick of hearing about what Wolf Pack Samurai and Internation Brigade are doing), your predictions for the tournaments and things you want to see in chapter 4 and GW2...

I will be checking this every week, however, if you have something breaking that you want on the show, like one of the listeners is being foolish enough to get married, or you've had a new baby sprog, let me know that too and i'll mention it for you and play you a tune (after throwing up )

So yes, i'll get the show up and running, I'll bring the music and i'll set the times and dates... now you just tell me what you want!

Peace

~Lone

PS: A sticky on this would be cool so everyone can get involved thanks MODS...

Hmm... thats the issue with Guild Wars though... although they may seem like an achievement on a personal side, they are things that anyone can do, hell, even getting ranked in the top 100 isn't a great achievement to the masses as the ladder is such a fickle place...

But then again, this is the issue that a lot of MMO's have anyway as the content is there for anyone to do, but with the instancing restrictions on Guild wars, its even less of a big thing, but if people want the shout outs, message them to me...

Ok, theres something, i want to know what your doing in game when you requests a song... If your about to GvG, tell me and requests a song that'll get all your team motivated... if your about to tackle the Domain of Anguish, request a rocking tune to go into it with and let me know

"Straight to Hell" by The Urge - Pretty great and appropriate song before going into a GvG.

"The Distance" by Cake - Not sure why, but a lot of times when I run, this song always pops in my head.

"Your Guts (I Hate Em)" by Reel Big Fish - Just an overall awesome song, especially when you are doing any PvP.

"History of a Boring Town" by Less Than Jake - Again, an overall awesome song, especially if you live in a boring town.

You should get those going on the air sometime.

Remember, if you want to hear something, request it during the show, if i don't have it I'll let you know...

However, remember you can only request one tune an hour for fairness to others requesting

Personally I think that the show was very good. I would rather listen to music and commentary than listen to the games music all of the time. These forums have plenty of things you could discuss on the air. Soon news about Chapter 4 will be out and I know lots of people would want to discuss that. Perhaps have a short interview with one of the forum Mods here(if possible). As for any of the Guild Wars players that have said that you are not doing a good job. Personally I would not listen to them. There are many Guild Wars players that just bitch for the sake of bitching. They are never happy with anything. I liked the show and I know others did as well. Keep up the good work and I know as time goes by the better the show will be. =)
