I know I would.

So is this saying that you asked me to bring it down as a reaction to my email? OK, here it is:

I've changed the name in the market so its clearly an "UNOFFICIAL KATG beta" app.

The app works, but if you respond by email and request that I remove it. I will.

And Keith, calling me an asshole (which I'm not denying), is like the pot calling the kettle black. But I wouldn't expect any less from you. You're out of touch asshole rants are part of the KATG fun.

I don't know why I let myself get worked up about anything you say. As you put it, all I have to do is look at your comment history(verbal or otherwise) and consider the source.

I've enjoyed giving back. And from many of your fans I've gotten a great deal of appreciation. But I am not trying to defame the name of KATG. You're pretty good at doing that yourself.

Thanks,

I think it was a good email Although I know the last sentence was a bit of a dig...

Sorry you couldn't handle it.

What do you expect after you spend a significant portion of your show calling me an asshole?

Go ahead... The code works, for the most part. Keith is just getting his panties in a wad because I wasn't around to support the app for a couple weeks.

Yes, I AM an asshole

Apology accepted.

No, because your premise was that I take it down because it wasn't working. As was Keith's original premise. It works now that I fixed it last night. So why would I take it down?

side note I paused the stream of today's show and came back to it about an hour later it played through to the end albeit with some skipping (~20 mins worth)

I agree that the stop/reset button is needed. I'll let you know when I get it taken care of.

Glad to hear it worked for you!

Sigh...because he asked you to?

Even if YOU say it works, it needs to be tested. The community can do that. When he is confident it is ready I'm sure he'll be proud to have it made available. But before that, who can be sure?

Well...other than you, that is.

How is "He" going to test it when he doesn't have an android device, and scoffed at my offers to help him setup an emulator that he can test it through.

But whatevs It's out of the market and if I continue any development it will be posted here.

I'm sorry that I interpreted his PM different than you did.

Even if it isn't quite at 100% yet, I just want to throw a thanks out there. If I got off my lazy ass and learned to develop for android I'd help. Please keep it up!

[BrianAlt]

You know, I should have realized. There are serious comprehension issues here. I get that. You're a programmer.

Keep doing what you're doing.

Well this pretty much sux. I took the app off my phone because it wasn't working and now I can't get the working version because it's not in the market. I guess Keith and Chemda are more concerned with losing fans they might get than keeping fans they already have.

I dug the app, even in its less-than-perfect state. Keith's reaction was bullocks.

I hope one day the Karma Police send Keith to a volunteer performance at a friend's house. Then after the show, I hope that friend gives Keith notes on his performance, tells him he stinks, and asks him to leave the house because Keith ruined the friend's good name.

I don't think it will ever happen because Keith's a funny motherfucker...but still.
