    PolyCast: Favourite Segment

    The PolyCast team wants your input! Below is one of a number of polls asking for the Civ community's opinion on a number of elements related to this, the official podcast of Apolyton Civilization Site (ACS) on the occasion of the one-year anniversary of its series announcement and release of its first episode.

    This topic is: Favourite Segment
    Your choices are: Interview, Intro/Outro, Mailbag, Modcast, News, Research Lab, Senate, Theatre, Time Machine, Workshop

    Feedback received on this topic, others and their accompanying time-limited polls will be taken into consideration for further refinement to PolyCast in the weeks and months ahead as those who make it a reality keep on Civin' with you.

        The modcast is always pretty good - nice to have some of the forums on the show.

        Research Lab can be interesting - particularly if there is a bit of debate - rather than everyone agreeing.

        News is usually a bit soso - but God help us when a new XP or game is coming out.......

        The interviews are also normally very interesting.

        What is the Theatre?
        I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

          That segment has only appeared once on the show to date -- in the fourth episode. It performs Civ-based fiction.

            Ah - yes.

                then Senate & Interview. Workshop can be good, too. Depends on the game subject for me (Civ4 exclusively, until Civ5 comes out of course).

                A small description of what each segment entailed would have been appreciated.

                    Oh btw, Modcast is a weird name - it has nothing to do with modification packs.

                    Oh btw, I think more Workshop would be great.

                        We agree. It was a working title that was supposed to refer to moderator, not modpack, and was originally meant to be hosted by a bunch of forum moderators (rather than the regular hosts), but that never panned out and we simply forgot to rename it.

                        Don't be surprised if we phase it out soon. The main reason we haven't done so already is because we can't seem to agree on a better name (suggestions are welcome).

                            Funny, I can use "Oh btw" twice in two sentences without even realizing I had just already used it.

                            Hotcast - explores hot issues in Civ forums, presented by a very hot cast of moderators!

                            In other news, I just Transcended to Deity. Yay!

                              A possibility.
