mtgcast is running into some upload issues, and there is a decent chance episode 42 may get lapped. If you follow the site, I'm sure you've seen that updates have been slow this week.
I'm looking into alternate hosting means of getting the show to the listeners. I want the content to be heard.
I trust mtgcast to get the shows up as soon as possible, both as a contributor and listener. I understand full well that technical difficulties can happen.
Also, if anyone has any alternate ideas for posting the show, feel free to speak up. I'm always open for more ways to get the show to the public.
Thanks for being awesome.
-Chris

Aren't you sponsored by a game shop with a website? I would think they'd be able to host it for you there, unless they third-party their site. I'd offer to try and have it put on the Pauper Krew site, but it wouldn't do you any good as we're locked down to members only.

What is the size of the file? For example I have 10GB of empty 4shared space to exploit.. Or I could upload the episode for my own business website... If the file is small it shouldn't be a problem to just upload it somewhere and publish the link in the facebook and here.

This stuff is all very new to me.

If the file is small it shouldn't be a problem to just upload it somewhere and publish the link in the facebook and here. I've been looking into free hosts, and even spending a little bit of money. My main concern is bandwidth going through the roof one week and getting charged a crazy amount of money. The files themselves can be tweaked significantly based on the output settings. mtgcast has us compress the shit out of them, much to my chagrin. Those usually come in around 25 - 30 meg a show.

I use Hostway for my websites, but I don't know what they're using for Pauper Krew... that's not something I deal with directly.

Yeah, he's gonna do his best. With the limited amount of time I have I've been looking into alternate hosts for the future, rather than trying to spam him to get it up. If it ends up being the "lost" episode, I'll find time to re-post it in the future.
We also have the set review coming next week, and I want to give my colors my full attention.

Sweet Ive been waiting for the set review. I keep looking, and nothing grabs me, so maybe an outside point of view will help.

Chris,
Do you know how MTGcast decides what podcasts to put up?
Is it first come first serve?
Should be based on seniority and or upload numbers
waiting on a couple casts to be put up and im getting EP 1 of some cast
very frustrating

Pretty sure it's first come, first serve. Also explains why they "bottleneck" on occasion when it comes to posting.
