Some “Frequently Asked Questions” about Pyrosmile and MCT3k. Well, actually no one has really asked these yet… I just anticipate that at some point someone will. So… maybe “Future Asked Questions” is more appropriate. Yeah, that works.

_____________________________________________________
How was Pyrosmile/MCT3K started?
Check out our about page for a short history about how this all got started.
Who does the voices for the characters?
Pyroman: Master Chief, Miranda Keyes, Sarge
mrsmiley: Arbiter, Guilty Spark
Who does the writing for MCT3K?
Pyroman and mrsmiley do the writing for BOTH the Arbiter and the Chief.
When are the episodes released?
Unfortunately, this is pretty much determined by the Machinima.com overlords. A new episode is submitted to them every Thursday. Normally, they will release it sometime Friday morning or early afternoon. Lately, however, it sometimes doesn’t get released until Saturday! We apologize to everyone for the inconsistency. Hopefully Machinima.com will work out whatever issues that are causing this.
What recording equipment do you use?
Both Pyroman and mrsmiley proudly use Blue Snowball Microphones along with standard Pop Filters.
NOTE: Pyroman didn’t get his Snowball Mic until the season 1 finale episodes. Hence the crappy quality before, haha.
Do you guys record together?
Sadly, no. Pyroman lives in Bakersfield, CA, and mrsmiley lives in Sacramento, CA. They record their lines separately, and then use voice chat online to discuss them and make any changes.
