Well if that would help you to get into the L4D2 mood whilst answering my questionnaire, I guess that can be arranged... *gets the Zoey outfit out again*
... I repeat, too kind! :)


Actually it would be quite interesting, if you are allowed to/prepared to, to see the results of your transcribing work, to see on paper the sorts of random noises we players during a game!

Noises people make during a game? In this house it's called swearing :D

If I make a cake that talks, can I write a presentation on it? Or leave it to go so mouldy it develops sentience and learns english?

Hahahaha yes ofc I can show you transcripts!! In fact, as part of being in my data I must give this option to my participants.. i think!
Although at the moment the only one i've started transcribing for L4D2 is one with fleep and fly and trish so it is literally just a load of swearing!!!

Here's a part that I showed Fly and Fleep from it:
Fly: oh my god you guys are frigged (pause) I got the sexiest beautiful hunter spot ever right here
Fl: alright hes got a hunter ready to pounce us so keep moving guys keep moving help me but keep moving please
Fly: oh you (pause) FUCK fuck that’s it
Fl: take it easy man
Fly: [inaudible] no you guys are cheating
Fl: im gonna go down guys
T: I know
Fl: but not in a good way
Fly: (laugh) not in a good way


and Jen, don't talk to me about mouldy food... oh my GOD! mouldy fruit is out to get me
and I suppose so :P

Unadventurous! Those little flies round fermenting fruit add a lovely protein-y crunch!

Also fermenting fruit = free alcohol!
