Mr.Pete

Hey, so I had the day off work and spent most of my morning making a plugs theme. I'm no singer, so I just pasted vocals in from Scott Hope you all like it: Stream/Preview: http://soundcloud.com/3chroma/mr-plugs Download: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/431411/Mr.Plugs.mp3

Oops. Triple post while my account was buggy. Clean up in aisle 3.

One additional note- Since my comment yesterday I had a much more prompt and friendly email exchange with the Earwolf site staff in regards to a posting bug with my account. So you have some great folks keeping tabs on things, but I still stand by my overall points: Facebook and Twitter contacts are nice, but providing users with your direct earwolf.com email addresses or at least an on-site private message system sends a stronger message that you're ready to accomodate anyone and everyone that wants to be a part of the site. Also being more active on the forums, and maybe down the road getting some of the forum regulars more involved by promoting folks to forum moderators, etc.. I'm sure you'll figure something out, and it's looking great so far Keep up the awesome!

Dave was great. I also just saw him in Paul the other day which was a fun movie, but I wish they had tapped Dave's comedic chops for more than just a few redneck jokes. How many guests now have made reference to wanting more Kulap songs in the world of music? It's becoming a theme. Maybe there should be a "Kulap" song competition

Echoing and continuing on Dan's point: I'm also a member on the MaxFun boards and some other active and sizeable-yet-closeknit community sites (that have spawned member-meetups, or bigger events like MaxFunCon) and like Dan said, a very important element is activity and accessibility from the site staff and/or hosts. In addition to regularly posting on the boards, making yourself available to people and encouraging them to get in touch. Jesse and Marc Maron regularly announce their personal email addresses on air, and Jesse's site has private user mailboxes/messaging as well as his email addy posted there too. On geekier sites like Metafilter, the owners also include AIM/chat/Skype contact info. I've already tried to get active here offering design feedback and tipping off the staff to minor site/server bugs both on the forums and via the contact form, and haven't received anything more than an automated response email with no reply address (I know you're really busy and the site is very young, so it's no biggie - just emphasizing my point). I understand if the hosts are too busy to be involved a lot, but at least the crew should be more accessible, maybe private messaging to site users should be implemented, and everyone on the earwolf team should be posting at least once a day somewhere on the forums just so folks know that they are listening and making an effort to build the community. Theoretically internet communities can build themselves unmonitored, but from past experience, some community moderating and a lot of active participation from the owners makes for much better experience for everyone. And lastly, I disagree with the idea that you shouldn't need a site account. It's a little annoying at first to sign-up, but going through the process gives you more incentive to come back or make use of the account you created. Having instant access via facebook makes it more disposable, plus you'll get a lot of extra lazy comments and trolling from passer-bys who are not willing to be active community members. People who use the site will soon forget about having to sign up and will enjoy having their own account on a site they value.

Nice one. I made a sad one too, but shelved it since the humor was too subtle. You ride a good line of sad but still funny (Maybe I'll post mine too though just for kicks..)

2nd attempt. I almost didn't post this one since the humor is so subtle/dark. It's basically Scott and Harris arguing over some dark synth music. But someone might get a kick out of this: http://soundcloud.com/3chroma/lets-get-depressed-yall I have some ideas for new ones that I hope I can get to soon. These are fun, and easy to knock out real quick.

Nice, and good idea. I tried a sad one too, but shelved it since the humor was too subtle. Yours is more overtly humorous (and probably better), but I'll add mine (in a new thread) just for fun. Keep em comin'

Ha. Nice one. I also tried to do a sad/dark one, but I thought the joke was too subtle so I shelved it. Yours is still pretty clearly still "jokey" (in a good way of course). I'll post mine for shits and giggles (brb...)

There is also a handy list on your profile page which shows your own recent posts, and whether there are any more recent replies in those threads.. But, .. the only way I can figure out how to get there is by finding one of my own posts/comments and clicking my name. Which leads me to a related request- How about an extra [my profile] nav item either in the header or the footer? In addition to recent posts, there's also places to add extra personal info on the profile page, but a lot of people probably won't even figure out how to get to the page to add that info.

Ken was great, but I think he set a new record for getting through the music charts with the least amount of talking/comments about the music

Hey there, gummy bear. Konnichiwa, corn bread. Greetings, green bean. Hide your pants, the mustards are coming.

Good one!

Damn. Shoulda asked if Chewbacca ever had sex with a cake wolf. There could be cake were-wookies running around that we don't know about!
