[EWCP] EWCPcast 12/11/11, Registration Cast Part II

[Brandon_L]

This should be a fun one to hear.

[Taylor]

Would this be solely focused on data, numbers, and the growth of regions and FRC at large, or will it blend into a "who's coming" discussion of the events?
If it's the latter, I'd request that come at a later date, circa Looking Forward's posts (perhaps you could have him/her on as Special Guest?)

It should be a mix of the two, or at least that's the plan.

We're going to be looking at who's going where from a very general perspective, not necessarily as in depth as we'd go for a prediction cast.

Starting Around Kick-Off, we're planning on doing a weekly cast to talk about what's going on, who's where, what teams should know etc. Once Competition Season Starts, we're planning on doing prediction casts weekly, and maybe do some recap casts as well.

How soon after the cast does it appear on iTunes?

I hope I can take the time and listen but there's a good chance I'll be studying and I would like to be able to listen to it when I drive home on Tuesday.

The last one was on iTunes in under 24 hours.

The cast is available for download on Talkshoe within 30 minutes of the end of the recording.

Andrew usually posts it to iTunes shortly after that. If it's not up by noon-ish Monday, shoot myself or Andrew a PM and we'll get it posted.

I'd like to know how the EWCPpast speakers feel about the growth of FRC and how it could impact the length and schedule of regional competitions.

As much as I'd love to take credit for this... the iTunes link is completely independent. It reads the RSS feed which TS publishes. There isn't anything I can do to speed that up and TS doesn't assure me that things will be downloadable anything inside 24 hours. But it should be good by Tuesday.



Yes I will certainly be discussing the growth of FRC. If I have time I may even write a blog post about it to let you guys play with numbers.

Edit: Just to be clear, Mark will probably also have his views too and those are more than welcome.

Andrew, having heard your views on the growth of FRC previously, I'm definitely interested in this cast...

As long as you don't go all 'Cranky old man' on us again, it'll be a good thing.

Heh. I agree with your thoughts on the speed at which FRC is growing. Especially in Michigan...But, you and I do seem to be the minority. That being said...
