Radio Critic Extraordinaire	posted 1/28/04 10:02 PM     I was shocked to find tiday that when i was listening to hfm2 today (yes it is out) that even when trying to relax from my finely tuned critical skills of radio programmes i found a bsic mistake in one of the programme of the cd. if you listen to track 15 (masterchief) when Loyd is commmenting of the delights of mr emeriths cooking at the time of 5:36 to 5:38 you can clearly see that there have been two pieces of audio that were pasted together not very cleanly. i hope that this can be corrected before all the rest of the cd's are published so as to ensure that it does not quote "reduce your listening pleasure" also on a lighter note is this only me or is the countdown to release still counting on everyones computer
J Levy (Moderator)	posted 1/28/04 10:14 PM       Yes well spotted. If you listen carefully you will find a number of other such imperfections. Believe me, I am aware of all of them; however, the average listener would not notice, and due to the nature of our equipment, resources and time, it is not possible to iron out every imperfection. Maybe we should give you a prize if you spot all the mistakes? Anyway, concerning the count down. It has been taken off now, although you may still see it as your ISP or your computer may be caching a the old home page which still had the counter. Try right-clicking on the page, and holding down shift while clicking 'Refresh'. If that doesn't work, just check back later, to satisfy yourself that the countdown really is gone (and to see the wonderful announcement that school is closed tomorrow).
Cecil Lulworth	posted 1/28/04 11:30 PM     Let me start my rant by pointing out to the general public that you are a self-confessed radio critic...Get...A...Life. May i be so brazen as to remind you that you possess less than 1% of the creative expertise of Jonathan Levy. If you're so deeply traumatised by this microscopic mistake why don't YOU deal with it? Eh? Well? Mr "I'm so cool 'cause I can pretend to be a critic". Truth is, you CANT deal with it. The closest you've ever got to advanced pasting (as you mention) probably involved pritt stick, in year 3. You should count yourself lucky that the highly refined JL got to your stinking turd of a message before I. For I, unlike JL, have a BIG mouth, used to sorting out wussy-boys such as yourself. Why don't you stop picking more than a mass lucky-dip competition; and go outside to admire the beautiful snow? Or is the shade of white slighltly to dull for your liking??? Are the flakes a tad too mis-aligned for your enjoyment??? Well, why dont you complain about the snow on our message board too? After all, you will get a respectful answer,,,as long as I dont catch you first.Chump.

On the contarary, the fact that people r nitpicking for such small mistakes, is a compliment to Hasmofm's professioanlism that only the smallest of mistake scan be found. I would be very interested to hear about such other mistakes...
Doesn't matter (changed to protect identity)	posted 2/1/04 10:04 PM     Dear cecil, no offence was meant in the slightest when i commented on the mistake that i percieved to have heard when enjoying the pleasures of your delightful comedy Cd. i was mearly tring to piont out to the disbelief of many such as yourself that Jonathan is still mortal and is therefore prone to makeing mistakes however slight that they appear to be. As to Robby's question of are there any other mistakes on the Cd i will not mention any for fear of reprisal from our dear bigmouth celcil but if he will cease from his lambasting and will accept some even slight critisism of his work i might point out some of the minute mistakes that have been made
J Levy (Moderator)	posted 2/1/04 10:39 PM       Yes very good - I am mortal. However, I must correct you on one matter. Do not assume that these 'mistakes' were made by me. As I said, I am well aware of them, so I would have corrected them if I could, however usually these 'mistakes' occur where the cast member performing made a mistake, and carried on a sentence in a different tone of voice, so however hard I tried, I could not make the two ends of the sentence fit together perfectly. Sometimes, I was editing together bits of two or more different retakes. I simply had to work with the raw recorded material that I had. And due to time restraints, it was not possible to call people back to re-record every little mistake. I do not want to avoid blame entirely for these things though, as I am the "director" so I should really have reviewed each recording thoroughly on the day and had it re-recorded there and then to cover mistakes. But recording did get very tedious at times so I nor the cast could have been bothered to do this. Anyway, please feel free to continue arguing or pointing out mistakes.
