Looking forward to catching the parts I missed (and relistening to the parts I *did* catch without uStream being a complete cow) later. All in all, a very good cast, gentlemen, and worth the wait.

Sorry I couldn't make it. My computer just doesn't do uStream any more. I may have to start commandeering a Sith Teen's computers.

You know My Daughter the Sith Princess. (It would have to be hers since Revan_the_2nd would not want to listen on his computer.) Besides, it's kinda moot--the 'casts lately have either been Sun. mornings when we aren't home or past time for them to get ready for bed.

I want to add that now that I've been able to listen Ustream-ad-free, great cast.
Also Lando's Used Shipyard is fantastic. It's too bad that ship combat is usually very low-priority in my group. My only worry is the Lando quote stings may get repetitive in future installments? There are only so many Lando quotes to pull from after all. Don't get me wrong, they were well-placed and I like them, but as a regular feature I question the mileage you'll get out of them. Still, fantastic segment, and I can't wait to hear more.

I am still wondering how I can be made aware of when a show will be available live on UStream. It seems that I am always missing the live stream. How are you alerting members concerning an upcoming show?

Great show guys, but I think you missed one species in the meat of the show. Seeing as the gamblers is mostly an RP build, might a well pick a species that loves to gamble. To a fault. That's right, the Herglic! _________________ Imperial Knight Soln Devist in DarthGM's Legacy era game. Also GMing a Dawn of Defiance campaign.

Quite enjoyed the show. The gambler is an archetype I've played in several different genres and systems, and always had fun.
Though there was one Prestige Class I think you missed. None of the Charlatan's talents would help with gambling, but a second level they do get the ability to reroll Deception Checks against someone they've marked. Plus, it's a neat class that fits in pretty well with the gambler concept, I think.
