welovepodfic | Points Post Week 1!

It's Saturday! Which means it's time for you to log all the points you've earned this week!

You don't need to provide 'proof' for your points, do give the Points summary below a re-read to make sure you're tallying everything correctly though:)

Points

For each piece of feedback that you give we're scoring as follows:

Leave basic feedback: 3 points
Example: Great job, I had fun listening to this!

Leave feedback with specifics about what you enjoyed: 4 points
Example: It was a treat listening to this while I was out walking today. I could hear the affection for the characters in your voice, and I loved the song you added at the end.

Leave feedback with specifics about what you enjoyed PLUS rec it somewhere accessible to fandom at large: 5 points

And of course there's whatever points you earned from Mini Challenge #1! And remember that you can earn points for the Mini Challenges at any time during the month, not just during the week they're posted.

How is everyone going? Any particular challenges or triumphs you want to share?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I think I have twelve? I forgot to keep track, but I think that's right. Haven't got up the courage to complete the mini challenge yet (I love the podfic in question to pieces and have recc'd it at least twice, but for some reason telling the podficcer that personally is terrifying) but it will be done next week. WILL.

and I may have stolen

croissantkatie's idea and made a list of all the podfics I need to feedback >.>

Lists are super helpful! And good luck with the telling the podficcer *hugs* I'm sure you can do it!

I can. I totally can. I'm not going to dissolve into a pile of flail and incoherency. I can DO this.

oh who the fuck am I kidding I can't do this :( but I shall make the most valiant of efforts. *hugs back*

You can! It'll be fine *huggles*

(I am here for hand holding etc if you need it hun)

Would it be pathetic to just be, hi, I think you're awesome, your podfic is the best and may have cemented my love of podfic as a medium and I've listened to it so many times I could probably recite most of it by heart and I have no idea how many times it's made me laugh when I've felt shitty but I know it's an awful lot because your delivery is so great, all the characters and the graceful slide between humour and seriousness and I am kind of in love with your voice and may have listened to a two hour long podfic in a fandom I know nothing about because I would listen to you read anything and you are so, so amazing.

Oh god /o\

That doesn't seem pathetic to me at all. It's lovely.

But I sound so flaily and ridiculous and :( I cannot do balance, I either have no feelings or ALL THE FEELINGS IN THE WORLD EVER.

But if you think so (and thank you, god do I need the reassurance sometimes <3) I shall go tell the podficcer this RIGHT NOW so I cannot chicken out.

Awesome! I'm a bit like that, it's either nothing or just words fail me. But you can do it and then come back here and do a celebratory dance!

*celebratory dance*

I did it! After crying for about a minute because I am stupid like that, but I did it. THANK YOUUUUU <3

words, why are you so HARD

Crying's ok. Crying's not bad. (Yeah, my therapist tells me this a lot lol)

But YES! GO YOU! *\o/* :D I'm so proud of you! *squishes*

Crying is good, crying is great, it really really helps most of the time. This was a :( why do you fail :( cry though.

I FEEL SO RIDICULOUS but thank you, thank youuuuu *tackle hugs*

Yay, go you! :D!

Oh, that would be a lovely comment to receive and not at all pathetic! :D

Oh I am so glad you think so, thank you! <3 I have a ridiculous number of hang-ups when it comes to, well, anything, but expressing myself especially.

That would be the most lovely thing to hear! Please do it and then come tell us what podfic you're talking about.

Sing Ourselves to Sleep, as read by

inkjunket! It was one of the first podfics I ever listened to and I'm nearly certain it's what made me fall in love, it's SO GREAT.

And I'm glad you think so! I feel a teeny bit less ridiculous now.

Good choice! I've just downloaded a The Eagle podfic by

inkjunket which I am excited to listen to. Making the rec post reminded me that I need to relisten and feedback on this too.

Is it Until All the Songs Are Sung? Because that was the unknown-fandom podfic I was talking about, heh. It's really really good!

Yes that's it. Your recommendation has moved it up a few slots on my to-listen playlist :D I've read the book, but not seen the film so I'm not sure how invested I'll be in the fandom. They cut the only female character (Cottia) out of the movie because it detracted from the central relationship between the two men. I made a Cottia podfic for Awesome Ladies!

If anyone left me feedback that was even half as awesome as this I think I'd cry. OMG why are you even worried about this, it's perfect!

Heh, I'm glad you think so! I worry too much about this kind of stuff, I don't even know.

sometimes i make lists of lists that i need to make

In conclusion: Lists are wonderful!

And yay for 12 points!

Lists are SO GREAT. Though the guilt complex I'm developing every time I look at it is less great. But probably good for feedbacking purposes!

\o/

I just don't delete my podfic playlists until I've feedbacked. This has occasionally resulted in multiple playlists, as my MP3 player takes just under 2 gigs of data. Ho hum...

I'm not sure it'd quite work for me, but that sounds like a really good idea too!
