  1. This pretty much ONLY makes sense if like, Kate Mulgrew is his mom...
  2. I'd like to echo what zircon said, pretty much 100%, and add the following: What we're *trying* to avoid with our standards is any "genre" which can't meet a basic level of complexity, effort, and interpretation. Sorry, but a chiptune that uses nothing but basic tones and applies no modulation or processing will have a very hard time meeting our production standards. I'd also argue that such a chiptune wouldn't be particularly strong even within its genre, as people can do some QUITE amazing things. Ultimately, however, for reverb, EQ, and a whole host of other things that wouldn't be allowed in a STRICT chiptune (i.e. a completely unprocessed NSF>WAV output, for example), you need to bend the rules a bit. That's the only point we're making, and it's genre-neutral: we want attention paid to both arrangement AND production. We've got metal, jazz, classical, rock, hip-hop, electronica, and tons of other genres already on the site, so watch who you're calling closed-minded. There's a difference between being closed-minded and simply having a framework for evaluation. How many times do we have to repeat the above, or some variation of the above, before it is digested?
  3. Happy bday you salty review fiend and judge extraordinaire! Just for this day I'm gonna use a smiley I've NEVER used before: YEAH!
  4. Jake has before indicated that he didn't want unauthorized mirrors popping up, if I'm not mistaken... if something authorized/official is going to happen, I'd like to see it added to the OCR torrent tracker, as that should guarantee some permanence, but I'm not sure anyone should do anything "public" without virt's approval...
  5. Current gen MBP 13" actually has a P8600, which really ain't that bad. Gotta be good enough for DAW work since it's faster than an E6600, which is what I was using without huge problems before moving to i7.
  6. It's probably more of a legal thing, I'd guess, as opposed to trying to limit the number of subs...
