 Truly. Regular players Daniel "DanQ" Quick, "Makahlua", Scott "AlphaShard" Dirk and "UberMarklar" are accompanied by fellow co-operative Civilization V multiplayer players in the sixty-seventh episode of TurnCast (TC). Entitled "Worse Than Usual", its runtime is 09m59s. Snippets include but are not limited to correct answer, cleared up, what get, on mute and is awkward.
TurnCast is the third spin-off of the Civ strategy-centric PolyCast on which Quick and Makahlua serve as regular co-hosts; fellow sibling ModCast focusing on Civ modding was the first.
