Transcript Info

Daniel here.

For ease of access and information supply, I've set up an audio record, transcript and upload program on my laptop. It's gonna be easier, for me, than typing stuff up. So every day, at ten to an hour (5:50pm, 6:50pm, 7:50pm etc) a little window pops up on my screen asking if I'd like to make a recording. They'll probably be mostly business related shit, like how many Proxies Annie sliced up, how many times I got the piss scared out of me in the last x amount of hours, et cetera.


[03:32] The transcripts themselves will look something like this, in grey Courier, because Courier is awesome. Sounds that occur during the recording will be interpreted like the words will, but if it's not a clear sound, this will happen. [audio confusion] That was my hitting the wall with my laptop case, and as it wasn't a cough, me clearing my throat, a scream, a pause, background noise, static or footsteps, as those are the only ones I've coded into the database, it comes up with audio confusion. The transcripts are simply what the mic hears me say, and what the AI can interpret. You shits better appreciate my transcripts, the program was a bitch to code. [pause. audio confusion] It can't pick up punctuation, obviously, apart from full stops, due to my change in tone, and commas due to again tone change and short pauses. Longer pauses are interpreted as such. [pause] I hope I've made this clear and all. Oh, also. End of transcript is represented like this. [END]

    2. What is it with you and the Your's? And if you do that I'm holding you personally responsible for when the Slenderman locks us in the basement and sets it on fire and I don't have the notes telling me what to do.
