Is the audio meant to keep cutting out throughout it? The sentences seem to match up, but god damn that's annoying.

I *think* that someone has been overly stringent with a noise gate. The idea is that when no one is talking you reduce the volume so you don't get periods of just background hiss ... but if you set the noise gate really REALLY annoyingly then it will try to take out the hiss between words and sentences, and produce exactly the result you get in this video.

That's what I thought, but I would have thought the sixapart guys were smarter than that, surely!

Better take a note of that. *O-W-L-S D-O-N-'-T T-A-L-K*

I am, but I screwed up and a bad edit of the audio went out. Sigh :\ By the time I was gonna fix it, there were a couple thousand links out there. Next year I'll get it right!
