  1. LIES!!!! It was all Mazedude. Stop trying to take credit!
  2. Damn lol. I actually had my parents who work in USPS to mail it for me so it'd get there by Christmas. I told 'em to put Santa but I guess for a gift that valuable we needed more insurance that if it got lost and had to be returned, it'd make it back to me I should have sabotaged it tbh. I don't have any Cage films on blu-ray and would have loved to start it with those 2. The one I really want is Leaving Las Vegas but it was a bit overpriced.
  3. YOUDON'THAVETOGOTELLINGEVERYONETHAT People want to murder me! Now you're an accomplice! And you're doing it for nothing... killing me won't bring back your goshdarn honey.
  4. Wait a minute, I just realized... how did you know it was from me? I never signed my name anywhere on it... I'm pretty sure I signed the card with "Santa" and the return address with "Santa" unless something went wrong somewheres... did you google my address? hurr... OH WELL
  5. Ah I'm sorry, he sent me a message on IRC while I was sleeping, I thought it would be rude not to respond
  6. Get the 4-pack, sell copy as you can. Alright, a little thoughts on Chivalry... Beautiful freaking game. I'm being completely honest here, the landscapes and detail in this game blows my mind. If you're able to run the game on max settings, it is truly a spectacle, a real treat. I don't even run it on max. Too much slow-down and I have a GTX670 and a fairly decent (not top of the line by any stretch of the imagination) PC. It's bottlenecked of course, but works. But even on lower settings it's downright beautiful. I think my favorite mode is Last Man Standing in the ARENA! Or even team deathmatch in the arena. Pretty much anything in the arena or king of the hill on that map is fantastic. Decapitating bustatunes was a highlight of my life. Who else can say they've killed a high profile Disney composer in a video game? And not just kill, but decapitate, sending his camera spinning in circles as he sees what his dead head sees. There isn't really a BIG learning curve but starting out, I can see how people can get infuriated by it. It's kinda realistic. The only thing you need to know, when you block with a sword or shield, you HAVE to block the WEAPON -- you can't just press it expecting to not get hit unless you aim your block right at the weapon. Can people stab you in the side when you have a shield up? Yes. Can you get shot with an arrow or javelin or throwing axe? Yes. Also, obviously you can only block thrown weapons with a shield. Not a sword, you're not Aragorn. The controls are super easy. Archer can be tricky with the crossbow and bow in general but it's fun to learn. I learned with man at arms, moved up to Vanguard and Knight later. My favorite class.... either Vanguard for the charged attack, or Knight if I just want to look menacing to archers or man at arms. They're pretty similar tbh. Vanguard & knight against Archer and Men at Arms = slaughter! Against themselves, actual effort. If you're an archer, have your secondary be a dagger and a shield or just a dagger alone. You may not live, but you'll look damn badass if you decapitate a knight with your dagger. Also blocking a bastard sword with a dagger... nothing's more awesome than that. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask. I'm by no means a pro but I can share what I know about the game.
  7. If Steam users vote for Chivalry to be the next Flash sale, you'll get it for 50% off on Steam store.
  8. Recruiting for a metal album on OCR? Good luck. I haven't played DD since I was a kid, I don't remember it or its music at all, and besides that I'm waaaay too busy to commit to any new projects, sorry.
  9. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and will have a splendid upcoming new year. Looking forward to what comes from this album! The roster of people involved is exciting - to just anticipate what they're gonna bring to the table. Brrrrr... givin' me winter shivers. Would be cool if people want to check in! Obviously not going to be pushing anything with it being both holidays and MAGFest.
  10. For those of you who don't know what it is, . Here's another! People who play it: Brandon Strader lazygecko bustatunes Amphibious Lucavi Tensei Good servers to play on: post one pls Where to buy it: http://store.steampowered.com/app/219640/?snr=1_7_suggest__13 http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/us/en/pc/games/shooter/chivalry-medieval-warfare/ (I got it for $8 here on sale with coupon) Why thread: WE NEED MORE PEOPLE
  11. A few of your "secrets" could use some work. The second one was ok. 'Community' isn't really for teasers for upcoming original music. There are subforums for that. This place is, I think, mainly for the posting and promoting of finished music by posted remixers.
  12. I'll be driving over on the 2nd but I don't know how early I'll leave, it's a 6 hour drive and I'm probably gonna want to relax afterwards. I get tense on that kind of trip.
  13. my poop for this album is going to be so incredibly meaty and delicious. You are all going to love it. Thanks to the Joker EDIT: It's actually called Poop It's going to have elements of Comedy for sure, but it will present more as a type of "stage play" than straight comedy. If I can pull off the vocals the way I have in mind, it should also sound quite serious and frankly, rad. Dialogue portions have been performed by a "secret guest" who will remain, for all time, secret. SECRET. It is symphonic metal in drop A tuning, but like I said, the arrangement is more like a stage play, sort of operatic, and there are mood changes and a tempo fluctuation that shows this. If it used multiple sources I think the judges would be all like "Medley-itis! You can't have transitions like this!!" but hopefully it should be fine & they will most-likely understand the stage play aspect of it. I think that's all I should share as a "preview". The guitars I re-amped are possibly some of the best sounding I've achieved so far and they fit the soundscape perfectly. It's not an overly flashy performance, but it's heavy and appropriate. The orchestra makes it seem complex, as it is probably more fleshed out. The drums sound CLOSE but not too close to Kataklysm's drum sound, so a damn strong kickdrum (or click drum as some say) I don't know if it's a secret, but I'm going to be making an OCR website for the project. I just need to receive all of the necessary assets for it such as art and text. Aaaaaand I've said too much. ;-)
  14. Glad you got it on Christmas, I was worried. Sucker Punch is good if you watch it for the eye candy and the music. And of course by eye candy I mean those cute girls in HD Blu ray 1080 p HDTV high definition. The spam was probably the trickiest part of the gift to acquire. Hope you enjoy it You saw Adaptation before eh?
  15. I just got Alpha Protocol in the SEGA Collection... might have to try dat sheeit. Wonder if I could do it without realizing it... hehe
  16. Happy Christmas to the judges, I can't say I'd take Christmas off if I were you, since I have to work 3pm to 11pm today and tomorrow anyway (and hey, it'd be good to get paid to judge songs, know what I mean?) but take a load off and have a good time with your families if you can. That's more important than anything imo. And thanks for your service this last year. /end sappy merry christmas post
  17. You two? You two right there? Stinkbutts.
  18. Eh... FINE... why couldn't we all just be dead? Damn. You're not ALL stinky butts, some of you are really cool! That's as much of a backpedal as I'm gonna give!
  19. That happened to me when I ordered Cubase 6, except it said "delivered to customer woman" online, so I called UPS and they said they gave it to a neighbor that said they knew me. It was lies, the guy came back, went to her house and got the package.
  20. Man, have you made $10,000 yet? I've been watching the bandcamp front page and you made $90 in the last 5 minutes
  21. Y'all still have 40 minutes to die! It could still happen! But wait... if the Mayan calendar ends on the 21st, then maybe tomorrow is the last day? Ok... there's a chance... but if we don't all die on the 22nd, I'm gonna have to do some serious backpedaling about that stinky butt comment. It did start snowing like crazy today. Not a fan, especially before MAGFest.
  22. This is how all boss battles end in Canadian video games
  23. It's gonna be awkward if the world doesn't end and everyone thinks I think they smell like stinky butts. I'm gonna have to do some serious backpedaling after this one.
