Watching that first game, I didn't realize there wasn't +buy until it was too late...

That's happened to me so many times, which is why I make myself go through that process whenever I examine a kingdom. It's saved me from building an engine that has no chance of working because of lack of a critical component.

...and sometimes I do it anyway and fail fantastically...

Also, watching the second game, I thought I had more silvers when I bought the mint.

Sorry for posting a bunch of different things, but I was thinking the EXACT same thing about how warehouse/potion is better than silver/potion.

Also, I was buying those scrying pools because they were better than nothing.  Then the Cartographers because they helped with them a bit.  I wasn't planning anything big...

I actually liked that part of your game more than the Golem/Terminal Draw business I was doing. I think that if you hadn't missed $3P early that you would have won that game.

...these videos are nice, eh? They're even nicer when you can see your opponent's commentary :)

In general though, I feel like I played pretty horribly, especially the first two games.

And it was interesting seeing things from my opponents perspective...  And also being like, "Oh, this is where I'm going to Ambassador two Platinums!"

11 new videos added to the Games With Other Youtubers playlist (link in the OP). These are significantly different than anything else we've ever done, and though the format is still up for improvement, we've put a decent amount of work into it. Hopefully you enjoy them.

He pronounces it the right way, like I do.

Expresso. Nucular.

But I think "Duchy"/"Dookie" is just one of those British/American things, where the American version is ostensibly correct in America, but really the British version is the right one. (I'm British, can't you tell?)

No, it's definitely not. It's an Adam/Wero thing. Dookie is not correct, but makes more sense.

Dookie would make more sense if the word were Dukie, which you can of course maybe argue would be a more logical word. But it doesn't make any sense as is. Though you are definitely right, and I want to reiterate, this is NOT an American thing, just these two. It also drives me a little nuts every time it is said, but whatever - I am not going to tell someone they should say a word differently unless I really can't understand them or they genuinely don't know it's a mispronunciation.

When I say "dookie" I'm doing it because the 5-year-old in me thinks that poop jokes are funny, and I'm aware that it's not a correct way to say it.

If I'm really irritating people because of it then maybe I should tone it down...

I pronounce it that way because a) It's run by a Duke and b)  because "ch", in that context, seemed more suitable as a hard sound, like in "ache."  English doesn't exactly have a hard-and-fast rule for how to pronounce "ch."

Actually, if you want to fix something the first thing I would do would be to not make "Hi, YouTube!" quite so loud. Enthusiastic is fine, but it is just quite sudden, and most of all louder than the rest of the video.

I stand corrected, then.

Regarding "Duky" because of Duke, would Duchess be "Duckess"?

Nah, a) because "Duchess" in that pronunciation is a MUCH more common word than "Duchy" and b) the soft "ch" makes more sense to me in that context anyway.

I've used two during my time. The majority of my videos used CamStudio, which is free. I actually really like it and I'm considering continuing to use it for capturing a lot of my videos. My issue with it is that it can only record audio from one source at a time, so if I have someone on Skype, I have to put their sound through my speakers and have my microphone pick it up from there. That decreases the quality of their voice on the video makes it so I can't adjust relative volume after the video is recorded, and provides feedback issues on their end of Skype. Example Video  Example video with sound

More recently I've used CamTasia 8 (well, a free trial of it which has now expired) to record and edit videos (I was using Windows Movie Maker 2.6 to edit before, because I didn't like the newer versions of WMM). I can add webcam stuff, and do Picture-In-Picture business. Once I figured out how to use it well I was able to do lots of stuff with it that I like. I'm likely going to buy the software this week.

Camtasia is the same one I use.  It's very simple and hasn't crashed on me or  anything yet (which Camstudio used to do frequently).

That is because now it is available only in 240p.
