We love taking on guests. If you love the fightans and wanna guest-host on the show get in contact with the hosts, or leave a comment expressing your interest. Specialists are in demand. Whatever series you're most in love with, let us know and we may be able to arrange an episode with you in mind. Do not worry if you can't make it Monday nights. The hosts may be able to find a suitable time if you think you can contribute.
Due to a low episode count there won't be a July Music Contest. Senisan and MatCD have won the June contest. We'll be re-vamping the rules come next time we do this.
Welcome back to D-Toid's unofficial fighting game podcast, folks. The new prizes are now on display. We're also gonna take a new format and release the recording and release post at once. This episode recorded last week has no real subject; this is honestly kind of a filler episode with no notes. It did give us an idea of what to segway into for the new episode, mentioned below.
Tonight we'll be recording a Mortal Kombat episode. Anybody familiar with the storyline, competitive play, or just a general knowledge of the series on a whole would be welcome to leave a comment or PM requesting to be on the show tonight. Of course any Mortal Kombat or non-Mortal Kombat themed questions and contributions are requested as well. As for the music guessing contest:
KD Alpha's Obscure Music Contest - JUNE 2010 - Episode 08 Every episode of Podsumaki (when the hosts aren't broke) there are various bits of fighting game music that play during breaks. Every listener, every episode has a chance to guess two of the songs in the episode. Points are tallied and kept track of every month in the blog sidebar. Prizes are also pictured in the sidebar. At the end of the month the listener with the most points wins and gets their choice of a prize, then the runner up is allowed to take their pick of anything left.
The first listener to guess a song in the comments gets the point.
Introduction: No winners
Break 1: No winners
Break 2: No winners
Outro: No winners
True story: My brother got so infuriated with me while we were playing MK2 on SNES back in the day, that he uppercutted my ass and knocked my front tooth out. To this day I wear a removable false tooth. He was playing with Reptile if I remember that right, I forgot who I was playing with, maybe because I just got nailed and there was blood everywhere. Anyway, here's a question:
What's good strategy against Shao Kahn (arcade mode)? I have my own, but I'd like to hear more because that's a serious ass boss.
My cousin once kicked me out of his house because I said Sub-Zero was better than Scorpion. I now realize the error of my ways, but how do you guys rank the countless MK ninjas? Don't forget Rain, Ermac, and Human Smoke!

NIGGUH.
I don't care much for the game, so I'm not really going to care if I mispronounce it or not.
