The forum software has some way it determines that, but it should stop once you've got a larger history of forum posts.

WE BE LIVE, djpretzel, DragonAvenger, DusK, Flexstyle, Jose & Larry!

I fixed your account.

No, it's not. As long as the arrangement displays enough interpretation, it can follow the structure of the original song to a T. I know you meant to convey that, but that wasn't clear based on the sentence I quoted.

We've got another show tonight at 9PM Eastern time! So far, it'll just be me and possibly Flexstyle. If any other staff show up, that's cool, but I'm also 100% cool with some ReMixers coming onto the show tonight if you're down. If anyone has questions in advance for tonight, post 'em!

All of Ailsean's arrangements are at http://ailsean.net/category/music/game-covers/ - You can verify if what you're thinking of is his or not.

We knowz. We're currently inquiring within.

There was nothing set like that at any time on the forums. You just forgot your log-in information, noob. All the accounts were still there and could have been logged into at any time, so don't blame us for your n00bery. Shariq's wrong. We did do a 1-time purge of accounts with 0 posts that hadn't logged in for something like over 12 or 18 months. It may have been before a forum migration. That was sometime around like 2006 or 2007, IIRC, but we've definitely done it before. That said, I merged all of Brandon's old accounts personally, so I know for a fact they were there.

The stilted sound was entirely on purpose, but I've gotta agree with OA that something sounded off on the first listen when the piece picked up at :20. That said, I listened several more times, and I think that "issue" was more stylistic taste than anything wrong with the piece. Subjectively, I would have preferred a smoother flow, and the crits about things not fully locking together at times aren't wrong, but you get more used to this as you listen to it more, and the overall construction, arrangement and performance was above the bar for me. The ending jingle at 2:26 didn't have to be as forcefully performed as in the original, but it was just WAY too flat of a finish after that lengthy build at 2:18. That gimpy synth line didn't have the power implied in the buildup. So, a weak finish, but otherwise it's a good, short and sweet extension of the :24-second long source and personalized it well. Being put off by the rhythms is definitely understandable, but felt like a more subjective crit on loosening it up rather than anything harming the piece enough to pull it below the bar. A little quirkiness never bothered me. Don't let it bother you. Let's go. YES

It's fine. 'The Elemental Stars' is a source tune used in that arrangement, while the arrangement is primarily of LoZ:ALttP music, and we can only assign a ReMix one game in the database. http://ocremix.org/game/433/golden-sun-gba/remixes

It means the system is worried it could possibly be spam, so it flags it for moderator approval first. The message wasn't spam though, so I approved it, and the friendly post is now fully visible on your wall.

No need to overthink it. If we see something questionable, which would be rare (and hasn't really happened yet), we'll talk it over among the staff and djpretzel can make the call. Star Salzman's "STFU" almost got to that point re: taste as opposed to anything hateful, but it was a joke mix (so he wasn't trying hard) and the arrangement ended up being below the bar anyway, so it was a moot point then.

No hate speech. Obviously. The question came up because the OP wasn't sure if an arrangement that contained Christian-oriented lyrics would be too controversial to post. That said, it's not. You're certainly free to ignore any mix you don't like though. EDIT: Politics, Philosophy & Religion forum. It's OK to talk about religion.

/dealt with

Mega-atheist here. Raised Christian, don't hate it, just flatly don't believe in it. Also in charge of the submissions evaluation process. 1a) We've not had any overtly Christian music submitted. 1b) This bums us out, along with no reggae, no country, and no live accordion submissions. 1c) We're 100% cool with Christian-oriented VGM arrangements being submitted here. Genre controversy isn't something we care about. If we were that sensitive, we'd automatically reject all vocal, hip hop, metal and dubstep arrangements, i.e. the ones guaranteed to get hate from some closed-minded/outspokenly douchey segment of listeners. 1d) If it passes the arrangement and production bar, we'll post it. The genre doesn't matter. Send it. Also, why is this in Off Topic? While there's the religious slant, it's about site rules. Welcome to Community. Enjoy your stay. Anyone chiming in with irrelevant anti-Christian stuff because they don't want to help offer suggestions to this proposed arrangement will get dealt with. I don't recall saying that, but it's a cool idea nonetheless. True. That's exactly how the site functions now. Fear. We're definitely scared to offend anyone. http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR00209/ http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR00349/ http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01125/ http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01678/ http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01865/ http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01923/ http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02071/ http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02286/ http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02752/

If we need to, we ask.

WE'RE LIVE!

Sometimes, there's no update other than date. But we be votin'. As for that GIF, no.

Just PMed Dustin for an additional breakdown. We'll see what further info we get back. EDIT: Heard back today. Hey Larry, Yea - he's got it right for the most part, its just an electronic take on the original - The electronic flute parts that start up in the 2nd half are completely original parts, just seeing how far I could push the original source material. The electronic/chippy sounding lead that comes in at 2:03 is loosely based around the original lead, but I play with it so much, its pretty hard to tell. If its too different, I understand.

Like a fine wine, this is one I appreciate more with age. Excellent, creative arrangement!
