For the moment, only approved users who've previously worked on this project are allowed to participate, please don't ask if you can do an episode.

I'm offering a bounty for a transcript of each episode of Lets Talk Bitcoin.
I'll be awarding each transcript with 0.1 BTC. mindtomatter will award another 0.05 BTC, for a total of 0.15 BTC per episode.

Transcripts have to be made available under a license that allows publishing on the LetsTalkBitcoin website.
Transcripts have to be in plain English, and for a full episode each.
A certain liberty in transcription is allowed, as long as the meaning is unaltered.
I.e., you are encouraged to leave out filling phrases like "uhm, uh, you know" etc.
Ads have to be transcribed as well.
I ask for a certain format, see below. scribd is highly recommended for the episodes.
When you've finished a transcription, I require you to post the link to the transcript along with a BTC address here in this thread where the bounty will be sent to.
For the moment, I'm not limiting the number of episodes I'll be funding, but sooner or later, I'll probably change the reward for new episodes.

Episodes may only be transcribed by users who have previously successfully transcribed an episode, with Kluge being happy with the proofreading.
Episodes will be proofread by Kluge before the bounty is paid. We agreed on a case-by-case payment for the proofreading effort, so it is in my best interest that you get your transcripts as close to the below guidelines as possible. The more work he has with proofreading, the more expensive for me  Wink

Proofreading Queue: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=294947.msg3551277#msg3551277

Formatting guide lines:
Formatting's the biggest time-waster, because someone else takes the time to format something "wrong," and then I erase all that and redo it. This's why it'd be most time-efficient, I think, to have one guy do it all, but it's also reasonable to make it a team-effort for the huge backlog.

*TRANSCRIBE THE ADS!
*If you're new, please check finished transcripts for an idea on preferred style and formatting.
*"Bitcoin" is often not a proper noun, and "bitcoins" almost never is. If you're talking about Bitcoin, it is, but if you're talking about a bitcoin or bitcoins, it isn't.
*Start the transcript with a list of participants. For example,
Code:
Participants:
Adam B. Levine (AL) – Host
Andreas M. Antonopolous (AA) – Co-host
Stephany Murphy (SM) – Co-host
Asher Tan (AT) – Co-founder/CEO coinjar.io
Ryan Zhou (RZ, AKA “zhoutong”) – Co-founder/COO coinjar.io
*In the above formatting, note how they all have two-letter acronyms in parentheses. Use these two letters to show who is speaking (including the host). For example, SM: I received an email from a listener [blah blah blah]. Using their first name is also fine, so long as you are consistent. Feel free to introduce other styling or formatting changes so long as they increase readability and are consistent throughout the entire transcript.
*It would be preferable for you to take the time to look up proper names instead of having me do it. You can usually just type the whatever's name into Google followed by "bitcoin." Google will often either confirm your guess or give you the correct spelling if you aren't way off.
*"Find-and-replace" is often being misused. Please think about all the words or names it may be replacing before using it. After using it, do a "find" on the replaced word to make sure you haven't unintentionally changed a bunch of words throughout the transcript.
*If you add timestamps (which is awesome), please only add a timestamp after a speaker has fully finished speaking and it goes on to a new speaker. Please also have the timestamp be accurate for where it is in the transcript, which should be exactly after the previous speaker FINISHED (not started) speaking.
*Ideally, upload your files to Scribd in .odt or .doc format (.odt preferred).
*Please start sentences beginning with a conjunction with a hyphen. -So, this way, you aren't as tempted to create a 500-word run-on sentence. Ideally, just leave the conjunction out, but I understand it's hard to ignore words when transcribing.
*Please don't skip sections. You'll have to redo them, and it's a huge source of "fail points."

*For segmented episodes, either add relevant participants under the header of each segment, or add them all at the beginning of the transcript for the whole episode with a note describing who's participating in a particular segment. Example:
Code:
Participants:
Adam B. Levine (AL) – Host
Andreas M. Antonopolous (AA) – Co-host
Stephany Murphy (SM) – Co-host
Specific to 20.2:
Dan Kaminsky (Dan – clip only, not an actual panelist) – Security researcher (primarily in the field of penetration testing)
Specific to 20.3:
Asher Tan (AT) – Co-founder/CEO coinjar.io
Ryan Zhou (RZ, AKA “zhoutong”) – Co-founder/COO coinjar.io
Cory Johnson (Cory) – Bloomberg West anchor
Emily Chang (Emily) – Bloomberg West anchor

*A note on changing meaning of sentence or not. Since I wrote those for my own use and didn't think to edit them again - a misstranscription or omission of word which doesn't change the meaning of a sentence, even though it's "significant," generally means it's likely a reader would correctly guess the full meaning of the sentence without hearing the audio alongside it. For example (significant, but doesn't "change meaning"), in "I have a big dog who in my trashcan and eats the tampons" - you can easily guess "goes" or some descriptive form of that goes between "who" and "in." Determining if it "changes the meaning of the sentence" -- for example, in "I have a who goes in my trashcan and eats the tampons," I have no idea what's going in the trashcan - it's not easy to guess. A bear, your brother, a space alien??? Maybe Roger Ver goes in the trashcan and eats your tampons - I don't know. An example of a sentence missing an "insignificant" word would be "I have a big dog who goes in my trashcan and eats tampons."

*The "paragraph or more" deduction, if there's missing data for multiple paragraphs, is applied each time a new "topic" starts in discussion so long as a paragraph or more is missing from that conversation. If you want examples of that or some others... they aren't particularly clear... ask, and I'll try to give some examples. I think FP break-downs and totals are just kept between qwk and I. Most look like they're well-below the "really freakin' bad" limit.

*DO NOT PARAPHRASE! Keep their words and speaking style in-tact. Adding in "missing" words which are necessary for the sentence to make sense is fine, so long as you put it in brackets. If there's a line in an episode where a guest says "I really think the IRS has their knickers twist," you can instead write that as "I really think the IRS has their knickers [in a] twist." If there is a significant and obvious factual error, you can also add a note in brackets. I did this once where someone calculated - I think it was something like 2% of $2m as being $4k, when it is, of course, $40k.
^*Hopefully, you can figure out a good compromise between the "DO NOT PARAPHRASE" rule and the request to not transcribe "insignificant" speech quirks such as "umm," stammering, or if a co-host may choose to say "my testicles agree" every time a guest finishes a sentence.
*If a sound is important for context, add it somehow, maybe in asterisks *sound of bag unzipping* or something similar, maybe -sound of whatever- or [sound of whatever].
*All transcripts should be in American English (-ize instead of -ise), mostly because this is how most of the transcripts, so far, have been written. This includes some other related "American" writing rules, such as using the decimal as the radix point, so $25,000,000 is twenty-five million, not twenty-five.

(condensed list of rules: add the participants at the beginning of a transcript, write in American English, transcribe the ads, don't paraphrase, be consistent, write like you want people to fully understand what people are saying.)


*"Fail points" is a rough measurement of how many errors were in the transcript. Ideally, a transcription should have less than 100 FP. An episode with more than 250 FP is considered really freakin' bad, and I charge qwk a little more for them.  Smiley

Minor grammatical errors (missing punctuation which doesn't affect readability) – .5FP
Misspelling a proper name, without changing how it sounds – 1FP
Omitting/mistranscribing an unnecessary conjunction (or other "insignificant" word) – 1FP
Misspellings – 1FP
Significant formatting error – 2FP
Significant grammatical errors (affects readbility) – 2FP
Misspelling a proper name, changing how it sounds – 2FP
Omitting/mistranscribing a significant word (doesn't change meaning of sentence)- 2FP
Omitting/mistranscribing a significant word (changes meaning of sentence) – 5FP
Omitting a sentence – 10FP
Omitting a paragraph or more (not fixed - transcriber must retranscribe!) – 25FP

Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own blockchain. With blackjack and hookers! In fact forget the blockchain.

Okay, so here's what I want:

A transcript of each episode of Lets Talk Bitcoin so far.
http://letstalkbitcoin.com
That's 41 Episodes, as far as I can tell.

I'll be awarding each transcript with 0.1 BTC.
All in all, I'll be offering a bounty of 4.1 BTC, which is actually a lot more than I'd usually be willing to pay, so please feel free to chip in.

Transcripts have to be posted here on bitcointalk.org, and I ask you to get the permission of the original author of the episode for posting here.
You may want to share the bounty with the author.

Transcripts have to be in plain English, with no mimicking of accents (sorry, Kluge), and for a full episode each.

I ask for a certain format, i.e. the number and title of the episode at the beginning, full names of the people involved (please make sure you get their names right. E.g. it's Joerg Platzer, not Bjork), using an abbreviation further on. I.e., if John Doe is interviewed, I'd like you to introduce him as John Doe, but mark his statements with "J.D." during the transcript.

At the end of the transcript, I require you to post a BTC address where the bounty will be sent to.

I'll fulfill my pledge for this bounty up to a maximum of 5 BTC, so episode 51 will have to be financed by someone else.

Not only is this permission-ed, but I'll throw in another .05btc per transcript, bringing the total to .15BTC each.   Thanks for taking the initiative here qwk, it has long been on our list but I am a bit overwhelmed with projects and still working on steady revenue to throw at problems.

Why don't you claim some episodes, it's over 42 hours of audio with todays release so I think there's room for everybody.

qwk - You want to add a list of all the episodes so we can keep track of who is working on what?

qwk asked for this to be reposted here. I reformatted it a bit to hopefully meet the specs he wanted.

ETA: If you want the example further edited for style/aesthetics, I can do that, too. Pastebin text isn't exactly easy on the eyes. The text can't fit in one BTCTalk post (hard forum limitation), though.

Okay, first bounty sent to Kluge, thanks again for the effort.
TX: https://blockchain.info/de/tx/2ffd3454f08880c964490d61cccb0464e9cdccb7d0c8277c8d7e7bd904429fd2
(this is just my part of the bounty, 0.1 BTC, the rest will be from mindtomatter)

@mindtomatter: I'm not a listener, I prefer written text. So this is really how I want to consume the episodes.
Also, I like to be able to quote my sources, not refer to "E41, 22:32 at LetsTalkBitcoin" Wink

Kluge brought up the issue of pasting transcripts being too long to be posted here. I guess it'd be best to have them hosted directly at LetsTalkBitcoin, so I'll be changing the rules for the bounty to include the right to have it posted there. If you could upload it there, maybe you'll want to add a few requirements for the format etc. Obviously, you'll have to honor the author of the transcript by including his name somewhere.

Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own blockchain. With blackjack and hookers! In fact forget the blockchain.

I'll just post this here, everybody can see that you'll be working on those episodes, so others won't take them from you.

Also, everybody please make sure you're not working on an already transcribed episode. For example, there's already transcripts for the interviews of the Bitcoin Foundation Individual Seat Candidates:
http://bitcoinmagazine.com/6823/bitcoin-foundation-individual-seat-candidate-transcription-index/

If you find other transcripts somewhere, don't claim them as your own, but please post a link here.

 I think it is wrong to acquire 1-9 , but if thats the case I will do 10 of your choice of episodes until saturday. You could pm me which , I wont mind which one (could be longest 10 if you want Cheesy )

 Also taking into consideration many of us here are not transcriptionists , the pay is not THAT horrible.

 I mean its usually 10$ per hour of work. lets say I do 10 hours (whic is like 10 episodes) I get 100$ which we get even more than that here,

 Though a great one would cost you around 500$ from real professionals of this job Cheesy

I guess you're underestimating the time needed for a transcription. I see a transcription of an hour-long episode as something like 5 hours of work, probably even more if you're not a trained writer.

You might want to try a single episode first, to see what you're getting into Wink

Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own blockchain. With blackjack and hookers! In fact forget the blockchain.

 No no Cheesy I mean 10$ per hour of transcription needed work. So 1 hour video = 10$ type of deal, well at least where I live it is like that Cheesy medical translators get like 50 or more for 1 hour of work , but you can do it in 10 minutes or 1000 minutes its up to you as long as you dont pass the deadline Cheesy not hours put in , but hours that were given.


 edit: also sitting here with 120 wpm , I believe I can finish 3-4 in one day easily , but I trusted the fact that I have friday off from work in which I will do my best to finish at least 5 of them , so today tomorrow and friday will bring me 10 in total  Cheesy if not I will leave the rest but for now I really really really want to monopolize 10 of these just in case Cheesy If I can that would be great.

I'll take dibs on E30-E39 (inclusive) unless there's overwhelming demand. Will think about alternative formatting schemes. LTB/MTM have any ideas on best way to display? Something like a server-side .doc or even .pdf viewer might be worthwhile. A captioned audio format might be interesting, too, though I'd guess it'd require unfamiliar software there, too, to display.

Will start in on it tomorrow night. Should be finished by end of month.
