    They may or may not end up being nominated for a couple of podcasting awards, but their winning combination of entertainment and information continues. Daniel "DanQ" Quick, Makahlua, Imran Siddiqui and Annalee "Cartimandua" Barney continue to lead the panel of PolyCast, an official podcast of Apolyton Civilization Site (ACS), in its fifty-third episode. Joining them for "How Do Hotcakes Sell?" now netcasting is first-time guest co-host Ron "Sisiutil".

    PolyCast is a bi-weekly audio production of ACS is an ongoing effort to give the Civ community an interactive voice on game strategy. Earlier this week, a special marking the release of its fiftieth episode this summer was released with never-before-heard moments from nearly two years of ongoing production. Its sibling show ModCast focuses on Civ modding; to date, ACS is the only known community on the Web to produce its own Civ podcasts.

        Another good polycast


        I'd leave some more constructive comments but this will have to do until I have some more time.

        The link to the "no quests & events" thread leads to a civ4 thread.
        Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
        The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.
        The simple suggestion of a true change scandalizes and terrifies modern man. -Nicolás Gómez Dávila

            The RedBar™ calls this a PolyCat. How many MonoCats were used in its creation? And what is a MonoCat when compared to a regular Cat?

                    No animals were harmed during the making of this episode, or any other production for that matter, of PolyCast.

                            Erm, would you be referring to Apocalypto's avatar (and that GT uses it as well)?
