So, I decided to try my hand at making videos. I decided on a short format quiz to start. I'm sure any of you here can get 100% on this. Let me know what you think.

 

It looks great, but I struggled to read the questions with more than about a second left to read the answers. Could you possibly put the question up for about 5 seconds and then reveal the answer choices with the 5 second countdown? I know I could pause the video, but that defeats the point of having a countdown timer.

*in Rosco voice* I love it! I love it! I love it! Khee Khee! 

I'd love to see more of this MM. I do agree with Hoss that it goes a bit quick. Also, I'd like to hear music similiar to what we hear on the show when the General Lee is going down the road....maybe a twing of bluegrass in there. I can't wait to see your next one. Am I correct that you will be doing lots of other subjects besides Dukes? 

Edit: just played it again and the music's not really that bad but it does sound a little like older folk music too. How 'bout a little String Bean or Grandpa Jones from Hee Haw?...stronger on the bluegrass.

I was thinking of reducing the number of questions to 5 (a nice round number) and increasing the timer to 10 seconds.

As for the music, I have to use non-copyrighted music or they might take the videos down. I used something from YouTube's library since it's safe to use.

Here's some non-copyright banjo music. One of the comments suggested playing it at 1.5x speed for car chase music.

 

Hoss is the most helpful person in Hazzard County. He's definitely a Duke. Let's pat ourselves on the back: We're all good and decent folks here in Hazzard but Hoss rises to the top as the one who goes out of his way to come to the assistance of everybody.....and he has the computer skills to do so in a practical manner. He is proof that you don't need a Southern accent to show Southern Hospitality.

Hey Hoss, that arrow in the middle is covering up the g and the r.  It makes it look like....

Welcome to the HazzardNet. We're happy to have you here and hope to hear more from you. I'm not sure I completely understand the question. By "this" what do you mean specifically? 

Pretty sure they're only here to surreptitiously spam. They had a teeny tiny link in their latest post, so I dropped the ban hammer.

I'm no tech expert but I could tell also. I'm sure your job is going to get tougher as AI infiltrates everything. It always reminds me of the old Spy VS Spy comics where they take turns being ahead of each other. Pretty much all technology is a double edged sword but it's nice to see the good folks winning much more than the bad folks.

It seemed like an unconventional first couple of posts, but I let it go as they seemed vaguely plausible and there was no immediate linking to sites selling pills etc. like I see from time to time. The moderation of the first few posts may be a slight inconvenience to new users, but it does a great job of protecting Hazzardites from scams and spam.

This is why Hobie gives his Finest away. He knows that if he tries to sell it he would get in trouble with our moderator and Supreme Superior Commander.
