ROLL CALL: Voiceacting Derelict
I'd willingly help, but that's an awful lot of text. :blah: If I do either Tau Sigma or Command, it'll take a while.

I hope that doesn't mean you'll be talking in Zod-speak. ;)

I think I have enough volunteers that I can badger into doing the other two parts.

Dang...looks like just about everything's already been taken.  And for some strange reason, I still can't download any of the text files.  Looks like I'm pretty much out, then. :(

I've changed the links to point to .html versions of Tau Sigma Station and GTVA Command; try that now.

Still nothing, with either Firefox or IE.  I have absolutely no idea why I seem to be the only person who can't connect; just my luck, I guess. :p If you'd be able to e-mail or PM me the lines for those two parts, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I'd do Tau Sigma Station.  I'll get on recording a few samples :b

I guess I'll try doing GTVA Command.

English is only my second language, though, so I suppose some lines might need to be recorded again to cerret pronunciation mistakes.

I just hope my voice sounds right. How should it sound? Deep? Serious? Articulate?

Well, send in a sample and we'll go from there.

Command should sound... well... normal. Serious. He shouldn't be overacted or anything, or have really strong emotions showing through - he should be professional, a man doing his job.

in other words, be yourself, but be serious sounding. ;)

it's not that hard, i can say "Nyarlathotep" and others quite easily.

Google is your friend when pronouncing stuff like that.  From a site containing stuff about HP Lovecraft, there were two ways to pronounce Nyarlathotep, an american and a british way.  Well according to this site the american pronunciation is
ny-are-la-HOE-tep
and the british pronunciation is
ny-are-la-TOE-tep
Which I found interesting.  
I had a hard time with the ship name Auriga.  
I tried pronunciating it like are-iga, then tried it as Aw-REE-ga, found that the long E way sounded better.  I hope I did it right.  heh.
Must be my western overhomer speak bleeding through.

It's Latin, so Aw-REE-ga is probably closest.  The other way sounds wrong because it is.

And the very existance of a ship name like Nyarlathotep is a clear indication that Derelict was never supposed to be voiced.
Just kidding. :p
who needs a signature? ;)
It's not much of an excuse for a website, but my stuff can be found here
