    @phantom285A wait so vex cast is officially dead now?

    Welllllllllllllll. The scheduling kept falling apart every time and we seemed to get more positive responses on the shows we didn't put any work into and always got meh reactions to the ones that were in line with our vision of what it should be. (also no one ever seemed to want to talk)

    I could do live question and answer sessions on twitch or youtube under the VEXCast name but that is the most that we will probably ever happen.

    Vexcast > Taborcast, but Taborcast > no cast. :)

    And just a cool thing I noticed: this post is the 200,000th post on the Vex Forums.
