Wants to reserve E7. Would like to try my hand at it. I hope you are not going to charge back me if i am not able to do... 
Sorry mate.. i have E7. reserved it yesterday.But i don't see any reservation for E6, its the longest.
I would suggest wait for official allocation, so that you won't waste your time.
TL;DR: I want to reserve E07. If taken, I reserve E06.
Okay, I want in. I just skimmed the entire thread looking for reservations between E01ish to E09ish. Here's my unofficial summary.

E08 – Our Bright Future 1:17:25 R imrer 2013-11-23

I would like to reserve Episode E07 – Ripple & the Deflationary Bu... 1:13:21
... If I missed something and E07 is taken, then I would like to reserve Episode E06.
I will wait for confirmation before transcribing, as I see that has come back to bite a few people so far.

I'd like to reserve episodes 3 and 4. If I'm only allowed one, then I'd like to reserve episode 3.
I take this to mean MethodMan has reserved E03.-----
I'd like to reserve E04 or E05. (04 is better)
I take this to mean that zubokaz has reserved E04.-----
I would like to reserve E3 if it is still available

Kieran if it happened before to you it is probably happening again for a reason. You need to claim the episode in the proper procedure in order to avoid this. You have to read the instructions and learn from the mistake. Why do I deserve to take the fall just because you did the same thing yesterday?
Because, from my perspective, this isn't the same thing as what happened yesterday, so I haven't made the same mistake twice in a row; I made a mistake, and then you made a mistake afterwards. It happens.In yesterday's situation, I made a post reserving an episode AFTER somebody else had already reserved it - i.e., I was in your position, tennis.
Today's situation has nothing to do with that - I made a post and started transcribing an episode, then somebody (you) came along and asked to reserve the same episode. In other words, today I'm in the position that my "opponent" (the guy who actually reserved it first) was in yesterday.
So yesterday's problem wasn't to do with how clear I was in phrasing my reservation, and even if today's is, as long as my sentence was logically valid and thus understandable to readers (which it was), the burden shouldn't be on me to resolve the situation. In my honest opinion, you screwed up on this one. I'm sorry.
Anyway, I figure it's probably best just to wait for OP to come and resolve this rather than bickering all day. Trust me, I'm just as annoyed that this happened as you are.

Once again, it's not a post with "three reservations" and nor does it break the "one reservation rule"... I was expressing a list in order of preference. It isn't my fault that you didn't understand that.
You also have to remember that it would be unfair, from my perspective, if you got to do E10 because you didn't realise someone else was doing it, while I had to give up on E09 halfway through because I didn't realise someone else was doing it.
I think you might have misread - E10 was always my first preference because of the Huxley connection, lol.

But the first time this happened, I didn't read someone else's reservation, so it was my fault - this time, I was the first to claim it, with due apologies to tennis for his wasted efforts afterwards.
My second post "claiming" it was only made because I'd read OP's post which said that it was definitely free, and I wanted to make sure he knew that was my no.1 preference. I know this makes me sound like a huge dick, but I think I should get to finish this one since it was claimed by tennis after I'd already expressed an interest.
Also, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley is my favourite book, so I feel like this episode and I were destined to be together

We'll let OP decide but you post doesn't really say you want to reserve it.

Alternatively, if either of these are available (it's been more than two weeks), my preference would be E10, E57, then 04.
You should've posted: I would like to reserve episode 10. If it isn't available I'll reserve episode 57 etc....
What's funny about what he posted. with the three reservations which I initially disregarded due to not following 1 reservation rule... is that he just switched the order around. When I initially checked the post it read 57, 10, 04. And to try and argue his case here he tampered the evidence. Please rule in my favor.
I will begin EPISODE 57 until I hear word that I do indeed have rights to finish episode 10 which I am close to halfway done on.
Once again reserving episode 57.
You an only claim a single episode at a time Kieran. In no way did you ever clearly claim episode 10. I'm already 22 minutes in.
I said my preferences for claiming were episode 10, THEN (i.e. if that isn't available) episode 57, THEN (i.e. if that isn't available) episode 04. Expressing things in order of preference is perfectly clear - I learnt to do it in French at school when I was 11 years old, lol! I didn't at any point ask to reserve more than one at the same time.Also, I was 30 minutes into transcribing episode 9 when I discovered the other guy had reserved it, but when that happened I graciously said "OK" and started writing another one. I know how frustrated you are - I had to take a walk around the house to cool off, because I'd wasted hours - but I honestly don't think it's fair for you to take this one.

(Sorry if I seem to be getting aggressive about this, but I'm sure you'll understand that I'm every bit as annoyed as tennis about the situation.)
This is ridiculous.. you have to go after only one episode. I just claimed episode 10 right before you and I saw that post and your preferene was Episode 57 first, then 10, but you just switched them around. On top of that you can only claim one at a time. And you just ruled in your favor as if it's fact that you have followed rules and are in the right. I'm sorry that you have written all that but you weren't allowed to reserve 3 reservations and then after i swoop in try and reserve it? Just so confusing and you are wrong, I am sorry. I have already gone up to minute 22...

Yeah, I just sent a message to tennis telling him this literally happened to me just yesterday, so I know how horrible it is to have to waste what you've typed. 
I think you might have missed my previous post, which I edited a couple of hours after I posted it -
(edit: also, if for some reason your reservation is counted as legitimate and mine's not, then that's the second transcript in two days that I've spent hours writing for no reason )
It is done! http://www.scribd.com/doc/186606842/Let-s-Talk-Bitcoin-episode-42-transcription
If it meets your quality criteria, I'd like payment to be sent to 19duyhWV79wWnM9SQQL75zXcM7B63JvDkh please. I'd also like to sign myself up forEp 04, The Horrible Warnings, if nobody else has, although I won't start working on it for a day or two in case my fingers fall off D:
Thanks!
edit
I had hoped that would be sufficient for claiming E10, since it was my first preference. I'm a few thousand words into writing it atm. Have you started writing it? If you have, we can discuss it, but if you haven't then I'd recommend going for episode 57, which is unclaimed and shorter than E10!If it meets your quality criteria, I'd like payment to be sent to 19duyhWV79wWnM9SQQL75zXcM7B63JvDkh please. I'd also like to sign myself up for
Thanks!

A couple reservations that will expire within the next days, please let me know if you're still working on them:

E10 – A Brave, New World 53:49 R jambola2 2013-11-09
Alternatively, if either of these are available (it's been more than two weeks), my preference would be E10, E57, then 04. I'm sure you can understand why! E57 – Protoshares & Selfish Mining 51:43 R 12648430 2013-11-09

Kieran I'm confused why you would ask to reserve episode 10 in the post right after me? I'm already got that reserved....
Hello, I'm MethodMan and I would like to reserve an episode. This will give me the opportunity to earn some side cash while also learning about BTC by listening to the shows. I have a decent typing speed and a good understanding of English. Perhaps episodes 3 and 4. Thank you.
I think you have to pick an episode yourself, and post here what episode you would like to reserve.
Can someone tell me what episodes are available?
It's simple, go to the list in the second post on the first page and check. If you want to make doubly sure that you aren't doing one that's already been reserved, go to the most recent pages of the thread (since qwk last confirmed everyone's reservations) and make sure nobody has claimed it there. Hope that helps! 
Can someone tell me what episodes are available?
Re-reserve episodes 45 and 10 for me please
I am half way through 45 and not yet started episode 10.
I'm re-reserving 45 for the moment, since you haven't even started with 10. I think that's fair.I am half way through 45 and not yet started episode 10.
I have just finished episode 40 Back to New York.
