The Lincolncast Episode 27: Rockin
Monday Nov 05, 2012
Monday Nov 05, 2012
The Lincolncast, Episode 27 for the week of November 4th An interesting episode this week as Shinboy regales us with tales of Hurricane Sandy, almost everyone else weighs in on Dishonoured and Assassins Creed and at some point we talk about Guild Wars 2. Specifically, news revolves around Arenanet's response to the disaster, the new content patch coming out soon and speculation as to how that will continue forward. Music: Intro: "Rock You Like A Hurricane" by The Scorpions and "The Pentagon" by The Hamster Alliance Featured Members: Dourin , selfconfessedcynic , No0b0rAmA , Aterangelus , Shinboy630 & Thurbleton Run time: 2:49:45 Topics for the week:
- Looks like we're forming a pattern. The first half or so (1:15) is non-Guild Wars 2 related. Deal with it.
- Arenanet does something nice-ish for those effected by Hurricane Sandy.
- Beached Whales are apparently signs of something good to come.
- What would we like to see going forward?

Monday Oct 29, 2012
Monday Oct 29, 2012
The Lincolncast, Episode 26 for the week of October 27th Hey, we're back from a short hiatus with a whole lot to talk about. Well, not too much about GW2 apparently - Halloween, that happened! - but if you want to hear us talk about 3D Dredd, Paranormal Activity 4 and Valkyria Chronicles vs XCOM, this is the spot. Music: "The Pentagon" by The Hamster Alliance Featured Members: No0b0rAmA , Dourin , selfconfessedcynic & Thurbleton Run time: 2:15:43 Topics for the week:
- The episode title is a hint - for the first hour and a quarter we chat about everything not GW2.
- This week's news and discussion revolves around mouse-breaking Halloween celebrations and a leap forward in Arenanet support.

The Lincolncast Episode 25: Sober
Monday Oct 15, 2012
Monday Oct 15, 2012
The Lincolncast, Episode 25 for the week of October 12th A special, short Dourin-hosted episode which covers the news this week while I (cynic) had to do some stuff for work. Probably a train wreck. Who knows. Music: "The Pentagon" by The Hamster Alliance Featured Members: Dourin , Aterangelus , Thurbleton Run time: 1:08:12 Topics for the week:
- Guild Wars 2 news and Vidya Gamez!
- The first half seems to be filled with Dishonoured, NBA and XCOM talk.
- After that I'm pretty sure Dourin and the gang chat about the recent patch notes, some recent security concerns and a mess of PvP announcements made last week.

The Lincolncast Episode 24: Bad Jokes
Monday Oct 08, 2012
Monday Oct 08, 2012
The Lincolncast, Episode 24 for the week of October 5th Episode 24 starts about as low as you can get and struggles to go upwards from there. Well, unless you like bad jokes, then it has two pretty unassailable highlights at least. Aside from that we talk about more patch notes, legendaries and herald a returning segment; The Great Guild Wars 2 Debate! The topic? Does GW2 have an endgame? (don't worry, the opposition puts up a fight) Music: "The Pentagon" by The Hamster Alliance Featured Members: selfconfessedcynic , No0b0rAmA , Dourin , Shinboy630 Run time: 2:43:26 Topics for the week:
- It's episode 24, uno like... oh god. Please skip the first 20 mins to get to the GW2 stuff
- Another large patch, we're surprised though only somewhat impressed.
- Legendaries are now out in the wild, check out Shinboy's masterful storytelling and a whole lot of slobbering over Twilight.
- Finally, the second GW2 Great Debate hits: Does GW2 have an endgame?
- Topics discussed include the relative merits of GW2's "the endgame is the whole game" approach, in addition to more WvW criticism, personal story sound-offs and Orr talk.

Monday Sep 24, 2012
Monday Sep 24, 2012
The Lincolncast, Episode 22 for the week of September 22nd A bunch of us are busy this week, so No0b ropes together a rag-tag crew to cover this week's news before letting it devolve into utter nonsense. Music: "The Pentagon" by The Hamster Alliance Featured Members: No0b0rAmA , selfconfessedcynic & Shinboy630 Run time: 1:14:10 Topics for the week:

- Guild Wars 2 is available on Mac - we provide deep insight on this matter, including comparisons and speculation on the up-coming Red Star OS.
- Dungeons have been changed and none of us are too impressed.
- ... And that's about it - oh, MAD SPOILERS in the last 15 mins. Tune out when we start talking about Arah if you haven't seen the explorable paths.

The Lincolncast Episode 21: Six Screwdrivers
Tuesday Sep 18, 2012
Tuesday Sep 18, 2012
The Lincolncast, Episode 21 for the week of September 16th It's episode 21 and we celebrate by actually somehow staying on topic for almost all of it. Well, everyone except maybe Dourin, but I'll let you decide that for yourself. News abounds with 2 million copies of GW2 sold, a bunch of economic developments and new mystic forge recipes, including the Legendaries discovered. Wrapping up is perhaps our final major dungeon discussion for a while, talking about speedclears with Shinboy. Music: "The Pentagon" by The Hamster Alliance Featured Members: selfconfessedcynic , No0b0rAmA , Dourin , Shinboy630 & Aterangelus (AKA Rvaan) Run time: 2:49:40 Topics for the week:
- Almost all of us are team brad, Noob sucks for multiple reasons and Cyborg lets Dourin down in the opening 20 mins of off-topic discussion.
- News forms the bulk of the episode as Arenanet announces that over 2 million copies have been sold and new content shall be free.
- It doesn't stop there though as the economics of GW2 are hitting headlines along the mystic forge and some interesting statistics for us to mull over.
- We run out of time for our originally planned discussion so instead chat about speedclearing dungeons in GW2 and how that is looking to develop in the near to far future.
- Finally, I encourage all listeners to pay close attention to Dourin as the episode progresses.

The Lincolncast Episode 20: Storytelling
Sunday Sep 09, 2012
Sunday Sep 09, 2012
The Lincolncast, Episode 20 for the week of September 7th Oh god this episode is off the rails. We somehow pull it together to spoil lvl35-60 content and run through some more Dungeon stuff, including an in-depth analysis of the storytelling in Dungeons, Lincolncast style. Music: "The Pentagon" by The Hamster Alliance Featured Members: selfconfessedcynic , No0b0rAmA , Dourin , Chavtheworld & Aterangelus (AKA Rvaan) Run time: 2:45:42 Topics for the week:
- Oh god, it's 45 mins of off-topic this time 'round talking about Microsoft text-to-speech antics and the DAAA.
- We talk about the second and third dungeons of GW2 and our experiences with Explorable Mode.
- Moving to spoiler-territory, we discuss the similarities between each order's personal story lines from lvl35-60 and the implementation of a diamond-style arc for characters.
- Following this we touch on the week's news (oops) and then go into Dungeon Storytelling and whether it's engaging (watch out though, there's a pun-bomb in there somewhere).
- Don't ask me how I derived the above shownotes from the obscenity the podcast turned out to be.
- "SPOILERS!".
- We're still podcasting live every week on Fridays, 9PM US Eastern time on Dourin's gaming channel at http://www.twitch.tv/Dourin

Monday Sep 03, 2012
Monday Sep 03, 2012
The Lincolncast, Episode 19 for the week of August 31st We're back for our first post-release show in full force, talking about how it all went and spoiling the hell out of level 1-35 content. This includes a bunch of Human personal story stuff, a bit of Charr and a full runthrough of Ascalon Catacombs Story mode (with tips and tricks). Music: "The Pentagon" by The Hamster Alliance Featured Members: selfconfessedcynic , No0b0rAmA , Dourin , Bahloo, Zoomyramen Run time: 3:36:45 Topics for the week:
- We troll the audience for 20 mins as usual
- This week in news, Guild Wars 2 came out - and it was a little bit rocky. Also, the ban hammer has come out!
- For main discussion this week we split it into two segments - the personal story from lvl1-35 and an Ascalon Catacombs rundown.
- Oh - and "SPOILERS!".
