You gotta hand it to Square, they know how to rape you for your $$.

So here's something Nutritious pointed out to me from the sniper/spy update: Anyone try this out? Or could this be referring to serverside?

Just so everyone knows, this is the current rotation: ctf_2fort cp_granary plr_pipeline cp_dustbowl cp_gravelpit cp_fastlane ctf_turbine cp_steel tc_hydro pl_badwater cp_well cp_pacman_wtf_party pl_goldrush cp_badlands cp_junction_final cp_badwater

I'd be up for moving it as well if all want.

I can't be bothered to read through all of the bitching, but I'm not sure if this was posted: http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2009/06/before-its-time-valve-explains-left-4-dead-sequel-to-ars.ars

Should we push the date back to a further time? It'd be nice to hang out with you and Ash!

I'd definitely be up for it...but Neko won't get to Indiana until the 13th

Sweet, I actually kinda remember that korean birthday phrase! No worries about missing it though, crap happens.

Was a thread on this really necessary? It doesn't sound like much info except that a new Zelda is in the works.

Thanks guys, it's great to see the love from OCR after a turbulent year so far. Its been a fairly quiet day for me over here, which is nice.

In daytime...what?

Right now we're rather vague, as some people are rather busy. Perhaps in a month or two we may institute harder deadlines again, but as of now there's no need I feel. Edit: So I'm up to the end of the rollercoaster part of the island...which I forget the name of. So far, so good, with no missed bonuses and all of the DK coins up to my point (25 or 26?).

I hate to hijack a review thread, especially for a preachy post, but some people seem to be missing the point even after reading posts responding to their complaints. OCR isn't a site based on religion or anything like that. It is a site purely based on artistic expression to honor video game music. You're surely going to get people who use words differently than others may in a free-to-express place like this. In this particular situation, you have complaints about the usage of 'Jesus Christ', that it isn't deferential. Not everyone is a Christian though - what do you do if one artist doesn't share your views here? People say 'Jesus Christ' all the time in colloquial usage as an expression of frustration/exasperation/etc., just like 'goddamn' - do you choose to rebuke every person each of those times? In addition, Christians are supposed to be examples of their faith. Wouldn't it be considered petty if when faced with a non-Christian, and you choose to rebuke him/her for complaining about the usage of 'Jesus Christ'? I can't say doing so would constitute as effective evangelism, nor does it look good because you're complaining about something so minor in comparison with many other things such as someone following bad advice (i.e. they're angry at someone over something, but under someone else's advice chooses to avoid talking about it with that person and hold it against them). Lastly, I know that Doug did not use this to offend. I'm a Christian and I find it hard to even be offended by his usage. It's not like the mix title is something like "Jesus Christ Did Not Exist". Even then, I would think the wise course would be to temper anger and foster discussion on the existence, not point fingers and say "You're wrong," or "This is offensive". Such direct phrases seldom get you anywhere, and here is no different.

Well, if people want other rotations to be swapped up for different days, then suggest some! I'll only take them if the flow and map frequency is on at a good amount though.

Hey Ele, nice seeing you post here!

Ah nice, good job finding the mistakes - I've had problems finding them, and was going to take this morning to but it looks like you were able to do my job. Also, about customs - there are only two custom maps on the rotation, pacman and cashworks. That's too much?

I'm having problems with reserved slots...and I'm not quite sure why. Tomorrow morning I'm going to work on fixing it.

The mixers aren't really that much of a holdup...but the FF4 project being virtually done and staggering release dates does.

I'm sure we can send out advance copies of the project to all of the mixers or something like that...considering how far in advance it's projecting to be finished.

Whoa...I didn't know this project was around. Quite a fast concoction!

Was it really necessary to break down his ragepost?

Project is well and alive, even if there is no special news for the masses. The project will probably come out around October or November, although we aim to be finished with all the stuff on our end well beforehand. So I bought DKC 2 on the VC a week or two ago, and am up to the Lava place. I had forgotten how veiled some of the secrets were in the game, but so far up to the point I'm at, I have a perfect for bonuses & DK coins. One thing I've noticed though is that the game doesn't look terribly great on HDTVs . Such a shame, since I have a 50" 1080p DLP.

I agree wholly with your edit addition.
