and that's podbang 2009! mostly! pretty much! everyone who submitted a recording should now have received a recording, or at least the beginning of one. :) we still have a lingering pinch hit that is being edited by a number of pinch hit editors, only one of whom is totally falling down on the job (cough*me*cough). it's an awesome recording, but will continue to remain a mystery for another couple of days. <3

profuse thanks to everyone who made this possible! particularly to:

superstitiousme, who came up with the idea and was then immediately assimilated by the podmod collective. her loss of individuality is our gain.

cybel, who has stepped up to correct a certain other podmod's lazy, lazy tagging, to gently point out her metadata screwups, and to get all contributions into the audiofic archive.

all of our incredible pinch hitters! including burnfor, cookiemom6067, cathexys, twtd, superstitiousme, and rosekolodny. they put in FAR more than they got out, and did it under pressure, while podmod cried on their shoulders and asked if they were done yet, constantly.

all of the people who contributed artwork (often with almost no turnaround time) and helped to solicit artwork! your name is legion and you are fearless.

all of the people who tried and didn't make it. you put in huge amounts of effort but lost the spotlight. :( we will all keep an eye open for your work in the future!

all of the commenters! it is so nice to see podfic getting comments, and to see you coming back after listening to give *feedback*! thank you for letting our participants know their work is appreciated.


i would like to give stats, here, as stats are impressive! hours of recording, number of words, number of participants! but i am played out. if someone wants to gather and post any or all of those numbers, that would be awesome. or comment with them! i want to know! but not as much as i want to sleep, right now. :p
