Additionally, because we’re real cheeseheads and are into rewarding our fans by offering them obscene amounts of additional content, we’re deciding to start releasing bonus content with the episodes! This episode’s piece of content is kind of futuristic… it was created for episode nine with the intention of being the newest in Stillborn’s series of horrible self-made songs (which have appeared twice, for those keeping count: Once during the Nightfall PVP Weekend and also in episode two [Gaile’s Song]). This song was supposed to be an updated version of the original song (from last year's Nightfall PVP episode), which was a horrible ripoff of a ton of different Nine Inch Nails audio samples. This year’s is worse. Don’t bother listening to this, because it sucks.

With the next episode you’ll find worthy bonus content! I’m not sure what it will be yet, but I imagine it’ll probably be an outtake reel featuring Melody the Mesmer stuttering and Stillborn’s voice cracking too much.

For filming, we use a registered (!!!! WHAT???) copy of Fraps 2.8.2.6489

This episode was filmed, for the first time ever, at 800x600 resolution. Normally we film at highest resolution, but because my PC is single-core it cuts the video size in half, which resulted in not being able to read any text that came up or anything (watch EP7 in HD - you'll see what I mean).

Though it didn't really work out running at 800x600, because the HD and high quality essentially looked the same. I think we'll be switching back to 1680x1050 (or 840x524, as it is filmed because of my single-coreness) for EP9.
