  1. apparently all i got was gift cards this year....

    2 starbucks giftcards, $50 total

    2 Barnes and noble giftcards, $50 total

    $25 for itunes

    $25 for any carmike cinema movie theater.

    I'm excited about the giftcards.

    My mom also ignored my request for rock band, and I got socks instead. I was very sad about this. Eh. I guess I'll have to wait until I have enough money and buy it myself like everyone else. I hate being a grownup and crap.

  2. Amazing work by everyone. This mix was an instant save after I heard it. The mix of heavy guitar work with the classic, epic feel of the viola really reminded me of the works of Apocalyptica for some reason, although they're playing cellos, and there was significantly more guitar in this.

    Either way, I suppose that's irrelevant. Excellent work on all accounts. Seamless, unified... keep it coming. I'm looking forward to hearing more like this.

    Wow, thanks...I'm pretty much obsessed with apocalyptica, so to have someone say that it sounded like that is awesome...especially since I don't really think of myself as being anywhere near their ability level.

    I'm up for recording more stuff like this...

  3. i got the tungsten carbide ring, made out of the same stuff that they use to tip concrete drill bits. the insurance doesn't cover the ring breaking, because one of these rings has never broken. instead, it covers cutting the damned thing off if it gets stuck, and replacing it.

    Wow...that's awesome. I better get a ring like that when I get engaged.

    Also the pictures are ADORABLE. I awwww'ed a great deal.

    Congrats!

  4. So I've been searching the official xbox forums and support site, but I can't seem to find anything, thought one of you might know. I also called tech support awhile back but kept getting foreign guys who didn't understand what i was asking to do.

    I did something sort of dumb, and I'm hoping there's a way to fix it (hopefully without having to pay to do it)...I signed up online (as in on a computer, not on the xbox) for an xbox account. I did this because my college blocks xbox live, and I was hoping I might be able to access marketplace on the website and somehow download stuff and burn it to a cd and transfer it to my xbox. Yeah, you can't do that.

    I took my xbox hard drive to a friend's house who has the internet hooked up to his xbox and I attempted to recover the gamer tag. I was able to get the gamertag, but I could not do it while signed in on the xbox. This created TWO accounts on my xbox with the same name instead of one; the live account and the account where all my gamerpoints are.

    Does anyone know how to link the two accounts so that I don't lose all of my gamerpoints? And maybe not have to pay money to do this?

    That would be great.

    Thanks

  5. Yeah, I searched my entire computer, it doesn't save the files anywhere.

    I did the repair permissions thing but it didn't do anything.

    basically what happens is i type in the file name, hit save, and the box goes away, but it doesn't actually save.

    It also won't load previously saved music either.

  6. I have Sibelius 5, running on a mac OSX. The save has been working fine up until recently. When I try to save something, I get to the save screen and make sure it has the .sib extension and hit save. I look in the folder and it's not there.

    The auto save is working fine, but when I try to do "save as" it doesn't work. Same goes for export; I can't export anything as midi, etc.

    It's really strange because it was working fine for quite awhile and it just won't save things anymore. It's a registered copy of Sibelius, not a trial.

    Pleaaaase help!

  7. Sucks for those without live, eh?

    I don't have live (my university is run by assholes and blocks all internet gaming type things), but that doesn't stop me... I just go find someone with xbox live and stick my harddrive in and you know, steal their internet a little so I can download all the free stuff.

  8. Happy thanksgiving everyone...

    So me and my dad have a bet for ten bucks on how long it takes my aunt to get drunk.

    Last year it was only 4 before she semi-passed out. I totally won...let's hope the streak continues.

    Sigh. My family is fucking dysfunctional.

  9. So myself, Cerrax, and my roommate just got played rockband for about five hours straight. Not only that, but since I have access to the AV system and projector in Duquesne University's Recital hall, we played it on the biggest fucking screen in the world. It was KICK ASS.

    The only problem we really had was the lag, but other than that it was really cool.

    I'm somewhat disappointed with the song selection on Rock band...well mainly because I don't know most of them, but I hope they add more recognizable songs in the future.
