  1. Unbaptized babies in Dante's Inferno. They were supposed to be horrific, and when they're coming at you it's kinda scary because they're all bladey and stuff.... but they're just so adorable and an army of babies coming at you is silly, and they make funny noises. And they get vomited out of giant boobs, which is also pretty funny.
  2. HEY! I can understand if people can't turn a wip in for the May 1st WIP date, but please check in either here, or with a visitor message -- something simple. Maybe let me know what style you're planning for your song, a basic proof of concept. Thanks everyone
  3. I don't even know if you care at all, but I recorded the intro for ff5wip (around 30 secs), as well as mandolin for the parts of the song that are there... replaced the midi with decent sounds. Still a long way to go but it's going to be great.

  4. Hey when your key for XSplit runs out, try out OBS - open broadcaster software... it's free and it doesn't seem like it has any limits, and is pretty easy to set up -- opens fast, etc. :-(

  5. Break all of the links! People should just hear the final versions on the album... though yeah if there's ones not going to be on the album you could RAR those up and reupload but IMO the album-specific songs should be withheld! Especially from that first contest! Delete dat stuff off tindeck!
  6. it worked on me i'm excited to make this. been mapping bits of it out in my head.
  7. How is RAM making it better, just so you can load more samples? To prevent latency and slow down from streaming don't you need a faster processor?
  8. Worked with zircon tonight, he made HELLA progress and doing a fantastic job. I think this is going to rock hard.

  9. Yeah setting May 1st for this was a bit shortsighted in regards to the rest of the community (same could be said about some of those other projects Rexy mentioned ) That'll probably be the one downfall of this project, is that y'all decided to start up and set consistent dates with other projects, and try to finish by the end of the year... I honestly just don't see that happening, but if that's what you gotta stick with, I hope it works out.
  10. *ahem* HEY, Where's the Hype?!™ Gario and Amphibious are lovingly squatting over their remixes like mother hens. Hylian Lemon and Phonetic Hero's remixes are so close to hatching, you can hear the eggshells cracking. We're so close.
  11. It's based on this: I don't think there'd be a way to unblur it since it has fine, small lines but I might need to come up with a better "letter logo" and come back to you on that. Gotta get something definitive and.. and good.. Thanks for the old edit there, had to go back and see and was surprised! I'm gonna go look for that WWP globe and see if it made it in.
  12. Still waiting for that baby to kiss.

  13. How hard did you cry after the Spartacus finale? BE HONEST.

    I actually had the WORST nightmare the night after watching it.

  14. Hahaha wtf, they're a LOT more famous than I was expecting. 1.5 million likes on Facebook. I can hear why though. Amagad.

  15. I'm making the transition from paper to digital, so no paper drawings. Here is a well known OC ReMix moderator in his natural habitat
  16. Ok, downloading and about to start on it. It's awfully small, is that normal? Hmph. I sent a simple acoustic song to sixto and it was almost 700mb, granted I sent the entire session, and all the bad takes too haha.

    Also, I did send zircon an email 2-3 days ago, maybe more I forget. But... he may be a bit preoccupied with ff6. I hope we don't miss the 30th deadline but if it comes to a rush I do not want to sacrifice the album quality to get it out. They did that with the album I linked you -- rushed it, and made it crap.

    EDIT: Tried something different and mixed all the instruments first without drums. NOW, to mix the drums in. >:]

  17. Doing it now, and I hope you don't mind me posting some specific thoughts: 1) 6+ years isn't an option? 2) a. I usually only check a profile to find the "message" button. I put a couple times a week anyway, I probably did check some stories on a couple of them. b. Looking at photos -- any specific criteria on this? I look at all the photos on the feed (I have hover zoom) c. News feed - all the time. Got that on mah phone. d. Reading posts on my wall -- this seems awfully non-specific. I don't post a story on my own and then read through them, but if someone posts on my wall I will read that. I feel like this could have been more specific. e. Posts on others walls -- I don't seek them out, but if I'm on their page for the above-mentioned reason (to message) and see a particularly interesting story, I may read it. f. I post on specific walls a lot. Usually a funny picture or a youtube link. g. Status, I go through dry spells, but I'm going to say once a week just to be safe. h. Comment on photos when I see an interesting one, or can make a joke about one. Gonna go with 3-4 times a week... maybe! i. Posting photos I'll say 3-4 times as well. j. I update my profile so infrequently I'm going to say never. 3. 301-400 4. Minutes per day is hard to calculate, when I've both got it open in a Chrome tab, and have it on my smart phone. It's the best way to talk to family, I'm going to choose the highest option. 5. a. Part of everyday activity -- strongly agree b. Proud to say I'm on facebook -- I'm not so sure it's a point of "pride" but I wouldn't shy away from it if it came up, so... strongly agree? c. Part of daily routine -- this is the same as everyday activity, right? d. Out of touch when not on -- agree e. Part of the facebook community -- what community is that? Like Apple product buyers? Disagree. f. Sorry if Facebook shut down -- yes. Like I said, it has become THE best way to speak with family, and keep in touch. See what family is going through, hear how they are, be supportive of those in need, it's just such a useful site for so many reasons these days. 6. a. Comparisons -- what? this is cray.. strongly disagree b. Attention to how I do things -- I follow the latest trends, like the new "what are you doing" button that lets you say how you're feeling or what you're listening to. I don't do this because of other people, which I feel is the core of this question, but regardless, I am going to say I am neutral on this one. c. Compare socially -- I'm not envious of other peoples' followings, and I know how that system works, and I appreciate the social diversity of my friends and family. Comparisons aren't really called for in any regard. e. Compare myself to others -- no. Not unless I see a fat beardo like Danny B or Joe Cam, or even a regular beardo like Stevo, but then it's purely beard-related. I guess there's some envy involved of certain beards, but not all. I feel like you specifically should have put a beard-related question on the poll. f. Compare regarding accomplishments -- I learned early on that this is not a good idea. I share a birthday with Hilary Duff. If I focus on stuff like that, it'll just tear me apart. g. Mutual opinions and experiences -- I've found that my friends list is full of liberals. I'll get some rare occasions to talk about music, bands, and musical topics and that's great, but not a lot of talking otherwise. h. Similar problems -- I am empathetic to people who share some of my own downfalls, and I discuss that with them when it's appropriate. i. Actions of similar situation -- Yes! j. Learn more, find what others think -- YES! k. My situation relative to others -- no. This was the point where I felt like I shouldn't have written this out because of HOW LONG it is, but I've already come so far. 7. a. Person of worth, equal plane to others - Agree b. Good qualities - Agree c. Feel I'm a failure - NDisagree e. Do things as well -- What kind of things? What are we talking about here? I have a lot of really talented friends. Disagree. f. Not much to be proud of - Agree g. Positive attitude - disagree h. Satisfied - disagree i. Wish I could have more respect - agree j. feel useless at times - agree k. Feel like no good at all - disagree - I didn't kill a cat in the road today, i hit the brakes 8. a. Prefer to hang out with friends - DOES IRC COUNT?!??!!? Does OC ReMix count? I feel like this would be a strong agree if it weren't for everyone hating me and only seeing people IRL once a year. I'll hit "a little". b. Anxious when alone - Nope! c. Greatest enjoyment in solitude - Yep! d. Not like being around others - A little. It takes time to warm me up to people. I'm like a cat. e. Rather interact online - It depends on the situation. For things of importance I WOULD RATHER talk or see someone in person. That includes skype, so the point is kind of moot, but I'll say "a little". It seems like a reasonable answer. f. In-person relationships deciding factor of who I am - with family, yes. But even then I disappoint them, and I live the way I want to... so... sadly, not like me. I hit next and it went back to the first page, didn't say I had finished -- is this normal? If it was recorded then... hey, hope it was good.
  18. I hope I didn't sound like a jerk with my post about 2014, but The_Damned DID say I could do it in 2014... if I get a chance to make the song this year then I'll probably do it, but if I don't, I got that under-the-table deal! I'm innocent!
  19. I will do this when I get home. But I just want to say right now, if someone does not add you on Facebook. Refuses to add you for two years or more. You are not friends. It takes all of 3 seconds to add someone on facebook. Facebook is a good representation of real life friendships. It is reasonable kama for people who only know each other over a forum, to assume that not being friends on Facebook means that you are not friends.
  20. Damned said I'm good until 2014 back when I signed on
  21. Hey! If you want me to use your drum sounds, I'd need them in separate wavs so I could mix them, but I haven't even listened to them yet... just got up, face caked with tears and sand, and I gotta go to work in less than an hour -_- Life man... sometimes it really sucks. But like I said, I'll be OFF!!!!!!!! 15th to the 18th, might be able to start on this as soon as tonight after work, and get something presentable, toss it back and forth and see what you like. Might just use my own drums, cause I have a pretty diverse set of samples and I know how to control them decently, and that just ain't the case with pre-recorded sampled drums. So yaaahhh maybe hold off on sending them, unless I misunderstood and they are live drums or something. :-)

  22. Schedule thing for me personally. I did turn something in though, but it's suuuuuuper midi. It'll be amazing when it's done, I can understand if it doesn't "win" due to being a midi, then I'd slap it up on youtube and hopefully people would like it. I kinda wanna be involved in the album though. FF5 is the only SNES FF I actually finished. And honestly DarkeSword, even if it doesn't win, and you'd still be open to accepting it in a few days, that would rock. I need to sleep and work tomorrow, but I'm committed to finishing this!
