Episode 5 is up! I'm sorry that it's so late. I had it ready on Friday, but a storage limit prevented me from uploading it. I eventually upgraded my account.

Interesting episode. I'm not sure, but I don't think "the tower of Colbert" isn't mentioned at all in original manual of Vampire Killer. The manual says Dracula was sealed in the highest tower of his castle or something. I think whoever translated it messed up.

Yeah, as you can tell by now, there was no new episode yesterday. I was sick (still am a bit), and mom suddenly came home from work after having thrown up, so I had no opportunity to record an episode. There should be one this coming Friday, though.

There won't be a new episode this week. On Monday morning, my computer started failing, and I haven't been able to get it on at all today. I'll have to get a new one, but that will be on December 6 when I can use a 10%-off rebate check at work, so no new episodes until shortly after that.

[Tuxedo Mark]

Well,...it seems my computer has officially crashed as of this morning (I'm typing this on my mom's comp). It's been having problems booting up since Monday. I'm going to get a new computer, but, since I work at Wal-Mart, mom told me to wait until December 6, when I can use a 10%-off voucher that I earned for working on Thanksgiving - in addition to my 10% associate discount.

As for the status of my Castlevania files, I think my Castlevania directory was relatively recently backed up. The podcast directory is another story. The backup that I did of it on Monday stopped verification at 31%. My mom's comp won't read the disc, but I put it in my PS3 today, and I could see the directory file names. I'll have to wait to check the disc on my own comp for a final verdict.

When I'll actually get around to working on it again is anybody's guess, though, because, once I do get my new computer, I'll have numerous programs to download and re-install, lots of DVD-Rs and CD-Rs to go through and copy onto my hard drive, and lots and LOTS of YouTube videos and other misc. things to re-download.

The one bright spot (?) is the hard drives themselves might be intact (or at least my main drive; my slave drive suddenly became inaccessible on Monday); it might be the motherboard that's fried (the Gateway logo won't come on). There's a chance that I can someday retrieve my files.

I downloaded my podcat episodes onto my mom's comp - just in case.

It's cool, dude.
Glad you're keeping us updated.

[Tuxedo Mark]

I got my new comp yesterday and am currently copying files from my DVD-Rs onto it. The master MP3s of episodes 8-10 (and the original raw WAV files of my voice recordings, the planning information, and the edit files thereof) have been lost (unless I can retrieve them off my old hard drives, which I still have), so I'll have to settle for downloaded MP3s of episodes 8-10 (which should be identical, theoretically). Oh, well. New episode next Friday.

[Tuxedo Mark]

Episode 11 is up!

Sorry for the long delay. My old computer crashed.
