Beyond the Wall Podcast Istaril Darknoj Livingend swhiteboy AGOT OCTGN AGOT2.0
Click here for the podcast.Third time's the charm; another episode that runs a bit long! First, we go over the usual news roundup with some very important gems: AGOT 2.0 information! We bring on Florian M. to help us turn one middling picture of the back of the 2.0 box into a 30 minute segment of speculation, and follow it up with an interview with OCTGN league champion Dusty, from North Carolina. Be sure to listen to the closing comments, as next week's episode will be (a bit) delayed.

Errata:
A part of Istaril's audio-channel ~min 35 wasn't playing. That section has been fixed and re-uploaded (as of 8 am Monday).

Hey everyone! I hope you enjoyed my segment. If anyone has any questions or comments, then let me know here and I will get back to you.
Dusty, you need to win Worlds this year so we can stop being the Rodney Dangerfield of Thrones!
Haha, Justin. It most likely got cut because I stumbled over so many words in the beginning. It was my first podcast and I was nervous.
Here: I'm Dusty. I live in North Carolina. We have a meta here. The end
I encountered a strange problem with the cast (streaming it in my browser). Around the 35 minute mark it's punctuated with periods of silence - I think Alex's track is muted out for some reason as Florian and John still speak now and then. This lasts until the start of the segment with Dusty. Anyone else getting this?
That does in fact look like what happened. Fixing it now, expect a re-upload in 5 minutes. I think this happened because I had to re-cut the start of Dusty's segment (to eliminate *any* mention of the NC meta, of course, Sokhar is right!) and moved something into the previous segment.
Edit: Fixed. You'll have to either clear cookies/refresh, or re-download the episode. Thanks for catching it, CobraBubbles!
I look forward to listening this week and seeing what different or similar conclusions we might have drawn from that box photo!
we look like TMZ with so much speculation around 1 photo!
Next week on Beyond the Wall: Is "fat" Bob really just fat? Or is he PREGNANT? Tyrion confesses all: "I'm an alcoholic!", Ser Ilyn Payne shares a guaranteed weight-loss plan, with a testimonial from former hand of the king himself!
Oh no, I've seen the weight loss plan that Hands prop before. It's nothing but a ton of laxatives.
You know, given the mention that there were only three specs when you expected four, and the new Iron Throne token - Perhaps winning Dominance dictates first player? I know this doesn't work for turn 1 exactly, but it's something to consider.
I can't see dominance directly deciding first player since the plot they spoiled, Wildfire Assault, still had an initiative value. I think there will be a number of cards with abilities that only work if you won dominance last turn.
The Kraken's Grasp?
About Star Wars: I believe this is the 4th errata they've issued for a game with a relatively small cardpool. I still play because I love the pretty artwork and the gameplay system that Eric Lang designed, but they've made some big mistakes in card development. I have a feeling AGoT will get more attention and fewer mistakes will be made.
I kinda like the music in the show, but can't understand what you're saying when you credit the composer and can't find the"chapter data" you mention.
Thanks for the cast. Looking forward to 2nd edition... or 2.0 as you call it. Are you anticipating a 2.1, 2.2 etc?
Steve, there's a link embedded in the chapter data, but it can depend on the player you're using, and it's never visible if you're just streaming through this site. The music is creative commons licensed (and we recieved explicit approval from the artist), and the artist is Antti Martikainen. Almost everything is from the album "Creation of the World", if I recall correctly - and the main intro theme is from The Land of Eternal Winter (with some cuts).
Hah... I hadn't thought of it that way! Ick, I certainly hope not.
