There are game developers who take kindly to Kong? Unbelievable :)

Trying to keep them honest.
There should always be a Yin and Yang to keep proper order.

Nothing great ever came from a lack of adversity.

I'm working with our potential guest now and will post back when I have more news. For now, I'd just mark it as a possibility.

Firstly, where the hell is IceGryphon? I need him to change the title, because...

I've been talking with the guys over at Stompy Bot and MekTek for the last few days, and I can confirm that we'll be having them as a guest to speak about Heavy Gear Assault on a special episode of Kong Kast next Saturday (June 15)! This is huge for us and I'm really glad we were able to get this opportunity from our guests. Laser and I are still working out the topic list, but I do want to take any questions our listeners might have and try to ask as much as I can on their behalf. You can submit your community questions here: https://docs.google....T3FP7A/viewform

Just FYI - this is a special episode of Kong Kast, so we'll still be talking about MWO on a regular basis, but we're all mecha fans in general, so this is an opportunity we didn't want to pass up and I'm hoping everyone will enjoy it!

I'll see if we can increase our Team Speak seats up from 32 clients.

No I will not change the Title, I changed it 3 time already Because LaserAngel wanted me to.

It actually makes sense to me now why you type in all caps... when you talk on the podcast I feel like you are about to reach through my monitor and punch me in the face. :)

Oh god I just choked on my juice laughing

Just chiming in to say that I'm one of those returning Kong players mentioned in the podcast, all it took to make the game sort of fun enough for me to bother playing again was poptart nerfing.

Also, I too am enjoying the Kongkast.

That's about it.

Beta burnout is rough. I understand completely.
