Geirskogul posted:Is there any talk about the main show? All this about a live show I can't see makes me sad. It's like a bunch of cool kids have a secret club or something. There's some on tumblr but it is rife with spoilers. Just a casual glance into the tag right now is a bad idea if you don't want to learn basically all the important plot points on accident. Even with "spoiler/spoilers" on blacklist. I tried to just see some pictures and general reactions and had to back out before I got very far.

Is it odd that I was surprised that Cecile and Carlos were gay? I always thought the reason Cecile talked about Carlos like he did because everyone did, like Carlos was some kind of Nymph or Siren or Scientists were like unicorns in Night Vale and are considered precious.

Feeble posted:Kind of... I mean, Cecil basically screamed "gay" to me but then I've got the advantage of acquired gaydar. Carlos on the other hand, I had assumed he was straight until the show said otherwise. I was completely ready for poor Cecil's feelings to go unrequited

I think that was part of the joke. The listener was supposed to think that it was just one other weird thing about Night Vale. But nope, turns out Cecil just had a massive crush on him.

Along those same lines, I figured Carlos didn't think about Cecil much, and then after The Phone Call, when Carlos and Cecil met for coffee, Carlos told Cecil to stop talking about him on the radio, but they could be friends. After the Phone Call, Cecil doesn't talk about Carlos again until One Year Later, which is 9 episodes (and like 4.5 months) later. That would give them enough time to actually become friends, and Carlos would probably relent on the talking about him on the radio thing a bit. I've also seen a fan theory that Cecil dated Earl Hanlan (the Eternal Scout master) in there for a bit, which is why Earl said that they could have had something before the Eternal Scout ceremony (and that maybe that started to turn Carlos' feelings towards romantic.) Probably overthinking it a bit, but I like that theory.

I actually found out about the show from this video (for some reason I never noticed it right here). The Idea Channel video totally interested me, looking forward to checking this out. Also if anybody here doesn't regularly watch the "Idea Channel" you really should, it's one of the better Youtube channels.

Why are you allowing your guy to work for Cassandra Clare. She's terrible. Like, not a good person especially in Internet slapfights, and definitely a terrible author. Edit: I am grouchy because literature is dead

In other news, the first Night Vale fangame has been created. On the plus side, it's a tabletop RPG instead of a video game.

I've been obsessively listening to this for a few weeks now after hearing about it on io9 and I had no idea it was made by goons, let alone Maxnmona! :o Seriously, as a guy who's been listening to podcasts for almost 10 years, this is my favorite of all time. I'm actually JEALOUS I didn't come up with this concept myself! Keep up the good work! bengraven fucked around with this message at 00:02 on Sep 28, 2013 |

Idea: When the live episode is released for sale, sell it on a data CD (and/or a downloadable archive) containing encypted files and weird text, image etc. files. This CD/archive is a self-contained ARG-style game that must be solved in order to decrypt the included live episode. Possibly the first podcast episode for which someone may need a walkthrough.

Voting for the T-shirt design contest has started. I personally don't really like any of the Cecil/Carlos shirts that made it to finals (I'd been really hoping for Lawrence Gullo's design, personally), but at least I voted for the intern shirt in the second category.

Well, I'm glad everyone is being an adult about this T-shirt contest. http://sentientabyss.tumblr.com/ quote:It has just been brought to my attention that the creators of Welcome to Night Vale are hosting a fan-design t-shirt contest. Right now, a shirt featuring Native Cecil is in the semi-finals. THIS IS HUGE. THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO COMBAT THE WHITEWASHING AND WHITE SUPREMACY THAT CONTINGENTS OF OUR FANDOM HAVE PERPETUATED. IF WE CAN GET THIS SHIRT TO BE CHOSEN AS THE DESIGN, WE WILL BE AFFIRMED IN A WAY THAT THE MILITANTLY WHITE!CECIL HEADCANON SUPPORTERS CANNOT DENY.

I just don't really want them to take a T-shirt contest as proof that they're right. They're trolls who don't even know they're trolls. It defeats the point of trolling.

I picked the one by Melissa Shaw and the Intern shirt. I liked the way Melissa's shirt incorporated the eye, while also keeping the appearance of Cecil and Carlos obscured.

Finally caught up on the thread and it really is crazy to see how the show caught on since this got posted. I did manage to get one of my friends hooked after I "forgot" 11 cd's worth of Night Vale in his car so there's that.
