We already have lots of languages. What we need now is numbers.

Thank you so much! Now my echo will be trapped in a simulation!

@Polyphemus How many numbers are we talking about? We need 100 sentencesā€¦ how many left more or less?

As long as we have 33 unique people, I can just spam the whole thing to get the numbers up. I guess weā€™re around 10-15 people right now?

Eight contributors so far. Some people have promised to send something tomorrow. This is why I wanted everyone to send three - but, due to confusion, some people only sent one.

Feel free to reply to them and ask for more. We can be cheeky on this one :wink:

Yes, I know. And if it comes down to the line, Iā€™ll fake it. But Iā€™d rather do it by the rules if I can, and we have until Tuesday. See what happens tomorrow.

Excellent. Do me a favour - either record three separate files, or leave about a 2 second gap between sentences. I donā€™t speak Hungarian, and it can be a little difficult to tell where one sentence ends, and the next begins.

I did my part and followed the instructions on the Satcom-70 page; recorded myself reading a random sentence from a random wiki article. Used the clyp.it site to record.

Pretty easy to follow instructions, though I do understand and appreciate what youā€™re trying to do here by making it easier for everyone.

Nothing like recording yourself speaking a foreign language to make you realize how white you sound
Me right now:

Good, so far. If youā€™ve only recorded one sentence, please record another two, then attach the recorded files to an email, and send it to TooWeak@virginmedia.com

We need to collect 100 sentences, and send them in a single post.

(edit)

We canā€™t use it while itā€™s sitting in some unknown account. At least give us a link to the file. If I can play it, and hear it, I should be able to grab it. Otherwise, we canā€™t use it.

Thank you.

(edit)

Received. Double thank you.

(second edit) I canā€™t understand a word youā€™re saying - but youā€™ve got a great voice. You could have been a radio presenter.

I linked this thread to all of the Spacing Guild and a bunch of other people I know on PSN. Hopefully that will get us more submissions.

With all due respect, the more I think about this, the more Iā€™m confused.

Theyā€™re asking for everyone to submit one recorded sentence. They need a minimum of 100 samples, with at least 33 unique voices, and at least 5 different languagesā€¦ from unique uploaders! Thatā€™s why the little red asterisk next to the Discord ID indicates it is required.

Did everyone not see the form???

edit: I donā€™t think it meant ā€œsubmit all 100 samples in a single fileā€, but rather ā€œall of you each submit your sample in a single fileā€.
