I don't know what to me more ecstatic about, the fact that you requested an MSX title, or the fact that you did to SO THOROUGHLY that it brought a tear to my eye. LEARN FROM THIS MAN'S EXAMPLE, PEOPLE.

Luckily I found a midi for that song as well.

Phase II: Requests ========================================= We're now entering Phase II, which is the songs/games request stage. It is important to remember a few key points... You MUST include SOME form of source tunes. THE MORE SOURCES, THE BETTER. You are STRONGLY ADVISED to try AS HARD AS YOU CAN to provide a midi file. IF YOU PROVIDE A MIDI FILE, YOU INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD YOUR SONG WILL GET DONE. See VGMusic.com for details. In Phase II EACH USER ONLY GETS 1 REQUEST. ONE. UNO. DO NOT MAKE MORE THAN 1 REQUEST. IF YOU DO I MAY EVEN IGNORE ALL YOUR REQUESTS. IGNORANCE is NOT an excuse. When posting sources please be sure to respect the boards policy on piracy. We will be working with users and mixers to best ensure that your sources are viable. I reserve the right to REJECT your request for any which reason including, but not limited to: Insufficient source, over remixed, overt obscurity, unrealistically difficult, and a long long list of other things. Don't be dumb. Seriously. As the people requesting this contest is, in essence FOR YOU as much as it is for the mixer. If you really and truly want to see some stellar results. TAKE YOUR TIME and DO THIS RIGHT. Be AS THOROUGH AS YOU FEEL NEED BE. That's all I got for now. Have at it.

I'm implying that in some cases posting an MP3 may be against the "No piracy" policy of the boards.

Just do the best you can. It's all we can ask. The first thing I'd say to do it direct to a the original sound file (PSF, NSF, GYM...) or YouTube video if you can find one. There are a LOT of YouTube videos of songs out there. If all else fails and you really can't find reference other than an MP3 give specific instructions and we'll take care of the rest. The only problem with that is, there's some odd 55 remixes to go through, so it'll be a bit of a process. All this is being considered though, which is why there's a break between the requests stage and the mixing stage so we can figure out song distribution JUST being the random script. We're trying to make it as fair as we can for everyone to optimize the results. HOWEVER you are ENCOURAGED to find a midi, as many of the mixers signed on will likely have trouble without them. BUT ANYWAY.... Mixer sign up concludes at 11:59PM EST tonight. Afterward I'll make a few more specific suggestions of things to consider when suggesting your song.

The man knows his Mazedude. Also: Now with color! I really need to get my scanner back

Bonus:

I've already got 3 down on paper. I'm going to work on getting them into photoshop soon. Edit, Concepts: Name those mixes!

As you may have noticed with ThaSauce, I've found that breaking people down with ridicule and name calling is the most effective way of getting stuff done.

...doesn't explain why SOMEONE hasn't submitted to R:TS yet....a-hole.

Been workin' on it... ...no, really.

I think it's important for us to remember that SOMETIMES, some crime WILL slip through the tracks, but these two, gumshoes, are pickin' up the slack.

Larry, you're bein' a real jerk today; A REAL piece of work. Ya'know that? You're out of control.

I didn't even know you HAD a forum account! Also: Spiffy title

That guy is a professional animator who used to (still does?) work for Disney. That being said...I don't think anyone here is THAT GOOD.

Taken care of. As well.

Current Status: Phase 1: Wednesday, January 23rd - Saturday, Febuary 2nd, 23:59PM EST Phase 2: Sunday, Febuary 3rd - Saturday, Febuary 9nd, 23:59PM EST Phase 3: TBD After Phase I mixer sign-up will be locked out. However Phase I is going to last for over a week from today, Phase II will last for 1 week after that. Following that there will be roughly 5-7 days to work out song distributions, and THEN you'll have 1 month from that time to actually finish the song. So we're looking at a few weeks from now to even get started, and then a month following that.

$20 says you never finish your actual challenge now.
