As ever, payment to 19duyhWV79wWnM9SQQL75zXcM7B63JvDkh please.

Also remember that 0.05 of the payment for this one is due to go to bitcoinpsftp, as per our agreement. I'd post his address, but I screwed that up last time so I'll let him sort that part out. Tongue

Well, my address was added earlier on, but to make things easier on the thread owner, my address is the following:

BTC address:  16eXGtPnRb5yHrF9Q1Vhgyd32bz1gVEYN9

This is a pretty epic service.  I wonder, will prices be going down in the very near future?

Note I've tried to eliminate sentences starting with conjunctions by either rolling them into previous sentences or omitting the conjunction entirely. Also omitted filler words like essentially, basically, kind of/kinda and I mean.

I have finally finished the 75 minute transcription for Episode 06. Sorry it took so long, I'm a bit of a perfectionist. That being said, I'm more than happy to change anything that comes up from the proofread. Let me know!

Thanks Kluge for your time. I'll give my transcript one more read through and see if I can't make those changes consistent throughout. I think I tried to stay away from colons, but it seems like you favor them in some spots where I would put a hyphen. I was using the hyphen in spots where the sentence was interrupted by a tangent thought - speaking of tangents, there was this one time in Calculus class - but then reverts back to the original line of thinking.

I do like your suggestion to use the colon where the subsequent idea is a 'furthermore' or an 'i.e.', if that makes sense.

Anyway I'm all but done except for self-corrections round 2.

I have a question on the conjunctions. I'm about 50 min into 1:17 of episode 6, and I'm having a little bit of trouble with the way Jeffrey Tucker speaks. Specifically, he uses a lot of sentence fragments that are strung together with conjunctions or filler words like *and* or *you know*. I try to cut them out when I can but sometimes the 'You Knows' seem to capture Jeffrey's speaking style, and sometimes they seem as just filler.

I also find myself using a lot of commas. JT tends to put short pauses between thoughts and I am not sure whether to use commas or periods. I'm wondering if it is just better to have a lot of short sentences or a long sentence with commas for the pauses.
I'd keep the "you know" in that case, but change some other things around. ", but the same kind of thing, you know - it also happened in education, it's happened in healthcare, it's happened in [whatever the other example was]." Semicolons, colons, hyphens, and double hyphen-minuses are all acceptable to me, though semicolons and colons are preferable. Kieran does a great job with handling sentence structure to preserve thought flow (way better than I) - so if you're looking for some good examples, check out his transcripts.

You know I don’t think it's a coincidence at all that we saw the rise of Bitcoin at the time that we’ve seen it - right after the currency crisis of 2008.
That really put everybody on notice, something is not working about the system. You know it’s exactly that period the regulators, the Fed and the Treasury
and everything, they sent the entire system into a gigantic upheaval that’s fundamentally changed its workability. Banks today don’t work anything like what
they worked like ten years ago. It’s a completely different operation. They make money in a different way, their reserves are handled in a completely different
way, the Federal Reserve is totally dedicated to [hampering] down interested to zero, to negative. Money and the financial system just isn't working the way
it used to work, so Satoshi’s invention, you know with Bitcoin, comes along really at exactly the right time. It’s kind of the perfect storm in many ways.

I'd change to (Kieran could probably further correct this):

Anyone know how to add a break after a break in LibreOffice? I don't want it double-spaced, but sometimes, when I download a .docx file, it removes all the line spacing after a speaker's finished.

So... in LibreOffice (looks totally fine on Scribd), it looks like
Code:
AA:  With me today, we have Gavin Andresen, chief scientist of the Bitcoin Foundation and also lead developer of Bitcoin who gave us some great information on ASICs mining and consensus voting as well as the new payment protocols in 0.9.  Gavin, thank you so much for joining us today.
GA:  Thanks for having me, I really enjoy listening to the show.
AA:  That’s a great honor and we hope to have you back soon, thank you.
when it should look like

AA:  That’s a great honor and we hope to have you back soon, thank you.

ETA: Nevermind. Figured out a solution. (in case I forget) In Paragraph->Indents&Spacing there is a "Spacing" tab. Add .2" before and after paragraphs.

Hey,

I just wanted to note that I don't see episode 36 anywhere in the PR queue.  Could you let me know its status?

Sorry, I missed it, and even the two times you posted about it (I generally only read posts with links in here). It's added in there, now.

Take e46 from me. Proxy person never got to it.

If anyone's done a transcription and doesn't see their thread on the queue, lemme know. Better yet, just send me the Scribd link via PM when you finish one to make sure I add it.

Not a problem, I know you must be very busy with all these proof readings and I completely understand how you missed it.  Thanks for getting back with me. 

Also, I'd be happy to transcribe E46, thanks for the offer.

Personally I would lock this topic and open it back up when everything is up to date. This topic is now attracting the wrong kind of people.
I thought about that, but on the other hand, let people have their drama Roll Eyes

I think I mentioned it earlier, there is no wait list, there will not be a wait list, I don't care if anyone writes "I want to do an episode" here. I'll simply ignore it.

Sooner or later I'll make episodes available again, and then it'll be first come, first served.

Sorry, I must've missed what you said earlier.  In any case, sounds good, I'll just wait on the word from you then.  Thanks, again, I appreciate your and Kluge's hard work.

Calm down. We noticed your submission. It will be proofread. Give Kluge some time.
He will probably look at submissions from "new" authors first, to see if there are major problems that need to be addressed.
With your transcription, he's sure that you didn't do something totally wrong, so you're probably a little lower priority, is that okay?

Yup, I have no problem with that at all.  Thanks, qwk and Kluge, for your time.  Also, I would just like to say that I would be interested in transcribing another episode, if there are any available.  I realize that some have already been spoken for, but all the same I thought I would say something.

Which episode can I do?? Im waiting...

Ok, this is already kind of ridiculous.

Over the last few pages people have turned into rude desperate greedy ungrateful bastards.

ENOUGH.

Show some respect for Qwk or Kluge (whom I don't personally know or have any kind of relationship with). They are doing their thing, keeping their word, trying to be fair and keep everybody happy.

The lack of respect shown by some posts like this last one baffles me. Get your shit together guys !

As far as I can tell, the following four are available:
E58 – The Price of Money 56:55 R 420session 2013-11-13
E49 – Disruptive People 1:01:21
E44 – I’ve Seen Better Days 1:04:00
E17 – Context and Community 1:08:46

And we have four people who want the job:
Hey, i'd love to get involved with this, is there any episodes left I can pick up?
Screw it I'll reserve 39 but I'd like some clarification.
If there are any reserves left I would love to jump in.
It appears some reservations are coming close to an end. I'd like to take an episode if that is possible.



As per topic start post, I'd like to take either E49, E44 or E17 qwk, doesn't matter which one.
can i reserve e58 and e49 (ignore that) please? should get it finished pretty quick, no more than 2 days Grin
Is it ok if I do E17, then I can start in the morning tomorrow
I'd like to reserve E49. If not then, E44.

Because there is another 3 names next to the episode my name is next to, does this mean there will be 4 people working on it?
If so do @inkdnb, @Bebopzzz and @AWSOM want to allocate which ⋍25 min slot they want to do?
I assumed since you explicitly claimed 49, you'll be doing that one. I'm starting on 44.
Thats fine with me.. Do you guys want to split up all the three episodes? There's three episodes of in total ~195 minutes. 195/4=48,75minutes per person. I think easiest would be that 3 of us do ~45 - 48 minutes and one person finishes all three episodes. Bounty would then be 3*0.15/4= 0.1125BTC per person..  We could do it this way if you all agree (and qwk agrees).
Yeah sweet, i'll crack on with 49 then, just wanted a little bit of clarification.



Guys, my original post for you four was not even 48 hours ago.
Since Bebopzzz didn't claim one of the episodes so far, I'll appoint one episode to each of the following three. No need for splitting episodes.

can i reserve e58 and e49 (ignore that) please? should get it finished pretty quick, no more than 2 days Grin
- e58 is not available.
+reservation of e49 for greenie

Is it ok if I do E17, then I can start in the morning tomorrow
+ reservation of e17 for AWSOM

I'd like to reserve E49. If not then, E44.
- e49 not available (appointed to greenie)
+ reservation of e44 for inkadnb

Don't start working on those episodes right away.
Please wait for at least 24 hours after this posting.
Only if no one objects during that time you can go ahead.
