    Wait I thought you were the big anti-Securom guy.
  2. Okay I know we tell people to search for existing threads but in the case of ones that have been dead for over a year and a half just make a new one.
  3. Um, Bahamut just said he gets no slowdowns whatsoever. I'll probably get at 4850 when I have enough money.
  4. Sweet action. This'll tide me over until I have the money to get those ridiculous 10-in-1 C&C and RA collections.
  5. A bit overkill for Source don't you think. You could play at those settings with just one 8800. Thanks for the "miserable pile of secrets" line btw, Bahamut. Made my night.
  6. Enjoyed all the entries, but Illoper's was my favorite. Awesome job everyone. Kinda glad now that I didn't embarrass myself by entering.
  7. Wow, RisingForce, you came back to resurrect a 4-month-old thread?
  8. Haha. It actually didn't cross my mind that a tag system would necessitate some sort of moderation...so to that, I'd suggest a simple solution: don't allow users to submit tags. Just let the judges decide on tags before each new mix is posted. Yeah, it would add even more to the judging overhead, but probably only by a few minutes or so, and I think it'll be worth it in the long run. Might need to recruit some extra trusted members to work on tagging the existing mixes though. As for the matter of the development backlog...if you haven't already, have you considered asking CHz to help with coding? I don't want to straight-up volunteer his services prematurely, but he's been doing a lot of cool stuff for GamingForce and I feel he'd be a great asset to OCR development as well.
  9. Yeah, if you want stuff in a particular genre, typically just ask here and we'll try to make a list for you. Although there have been so many "relaxing" and "piano" and "orchestra" and "vocal" requests that I start to wonder if it wouldn't be easier to just have a permanent list somewhere to save everybody the trouble. Actually, the more people ask for this, the more I wonder if it might be a decent idea after all. I don't see educating "close-minded" listeners as an overly valid reason...if they want to be close-minded, they're going to find some way to do it no matter what, and it doesn't seem appropriate to force tolerance on them. Judging from the friends I have that go here, the main selection criteria people have is actually the source game and tune...should we then eliminate those identifiers as well in the hopes of inducing open-mindedness in listeners? I guess I can understand that some ReMixes are hard to classify, but I see djp try to do it in his write-ups all the time anyway. I think a multiple tag system would help in that aspect. It might even help open people up to other genres...for example, if someone searches for "rap" and gets "Oil Ocean (WT-40 Mix)," he might become interested in ethnic, rock, or electronica music as well.
  10. ^ This. Doesn't work both because it takes time for the spawn door to open and because the stickies are always on the top of the spawn door. Same here.
  11. Would you rather have Halle Berry?
  12. Okay I just had a "HOLY SNAP" moment... Resizable textboxes.
  13. Granted, none of those are Pokeballs...but I think it looks most like a morph ball.
  14. Anybody figure out how to use search engines besides Google, i.e. Wikipedia, IMDB, Amazon, etc.? I assume you can because it's one of the things you can import.
  15. Wow, just read the comic...very cool that they got Scott McCloud to do it. Prett excited about V8 too.
  16. All jokes aside, this really is practically its own operating system. Have it make cake and we're set.
  17. Wait, tenure? What does that have to do with anything? If you mean people are immune to getting picked on because they've been here longer and not because they don't post dumb threads, then you're very very wrong.
