The Audio Has Been Kill

Hey gang, I'm sorry for no updates for such a long time - I've been doing everything I can to make this work for episode 3 and 4, but sadly the audio that was sent to me from a couple of the girls is full on corrupted.

I've been trying my best to fix it and gotten very frustrated because it was super hot and fun, but the audio is just Kaput.

I am not sure what to do from here to be honest, herding all the girls together to re-do the episode is going to be tough and I'll be very real, I'm super shaky on my DMing. Not sure where to go from here.

I'm currently on the lookout for a DM to do us all a one shot to make up for the lack of content here, where we can all play and just have a gay old time, no stress!

Again, so sorry, and thank you for the love and support over the quadrillion years its taken for me to admit to myself that there's no way to fix this goddamn audio.

Love, Ivy <3

I've been DMing for going on 15 years and I'll just be honest and not sugar coat anything for you. You're doing a fine ass job, and DMing is hard af and you'll always feel like you could have done better. But, never quit, you've had plenty of fun and don't fret on the rules too much, after all, you're the goddess of the world you made. Rules are ment to be bent and in many instances, just thrown out the door when it comes to DnD. Just remembered the number 1 rule(even in the DM's guide): have fun

Like most of the other folks on here have said. It's true, DMing is hard. I'm DMing for a bunch of my friends, but in the end as long as everyone has a great time that is all that matters. You guys work super hard and although I just signed up, what I've heard so far is rad.

I saw the headline, feared the worst, and got a membership just to read this. You're making an amazing podcast, and while it's tragic that a good recording got lost, i'm stil so hopeful for the project's future.

That's so freeing and metal Ivy. LOVE YOU

Just happy it's ongoing and your still having fun with it. As others have said a recap would be great. Don't stress the details ;)

Don't be so hard on yourself, you're doing great!

Vincent Verbeck

Thanks for the update I await whatever you guys do next

There are also several options for trying to fix or retrieve the files yourself according to the net. System File Checker (SFC): This built-in Windows tool can scan and repair corrupted system files. Open Command Prompt as an administrator and type sfc /scannow, then press Enter. This will scan for and attempt to fix any corrupted files2. Deployment Imaging Service and Management Tool (DISM): If SFC doesn't fix the issue, you can use DISM. Open Command Prompt as an administrator and type DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth, then press Enter. This tool can repair the Windows image and fix system files2. Restore Previous Versions: If you have File History or System Restore enabled, you can restore previous versions of files. Right-click the file or folder, select "Restore previous versions," and choose a version to restore. Third-Party Recovery Software: Tools like Recuva, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard, and Wondershare Recoverit can help recover corrupted files. These programs can scan your drive and attempt to recover lost or corrupted data4. Open and Repair: For Microsoft Office files, you can use the "Open and Repair" feature. Open the file in Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, click File > Open > Browse, select the file, click the arrow next to Open, and choose "Open and Repair".

I say keep going, give us a little audio recap or something and keep playing it from where you all are at. You're doing great as a dm and you'll pick more up as you go.

You could always see if they had backup files on their devices and ask them to check and see if they can resend the files.

You're not a bad DM. While I don't have to record a session, I hope you can find a solution to the tech issue. I imagine the heartbreak was rough. Hopefully everyone's schedule realign and you can try again.

Oh and sorry to blow up this comment section unnecessarily, but if you are looking for a fun and lighthearted one shot might I suggest Wild Goat Chase to you? It's very whimsical, which is a slightly different vibe to your campaign but I feel could be a relaxing distraction for the time being.

Also I'm gonna let you in on a secret of DMing that has taken me years to learn: every DM worth their salt thinks their games are bad. I obviously make the caveat because some people are aholes who think everything they do is amazing and therefore aren't fun, but you have done such an amazing job with your worldbuilding and pacing. Like obviously you are all better VAs than me so I can't compare there but the story is great and as someone who's spent like 5 years crafting a story that I'm just now comfortable starting I can assure you yours is phenomenal.

John Folmer

What is probably the best to do is make a summary episode where you go over the events that happened in the episodes that got corrupted and then move on with the campaign from there. Don't let something silly like tech issues kill this awesome campaign!

John Folmer

Your DMing is great! You and the girls all seem to be having fun, which is the most important part of the game. One of the hardest parts of DM sometimes is to just keep things moving forward. While probably not ideal, maybe it would be best to just do a minor time skip. Jump forward a day or two, past the events of episode 3 and cover the episode 3 events in a recap. If you want to go extra maybe have a couple if illustrations during the recap, but those wouldn't be necessary. Regardless, I appreciate the update, and I look forward to whatever you and the girls do next!

Dang, that sucks to hear, sorry this happened and sorry you've been having trouble with this. But just from the 2 episodes that are out there now, I'm still fully committed to this crew. Y'all are hilarious and I listen to those episodes all the time when I need a smile on my face. Sucks this happened, but can't wait to see what's coming next.

You should take all the time you need to figure stuff out what you’ve done so far has been fantastic and it’s just a shame that these audio issues cropped up. Hope you have an easier time with all this in the future.
