  1. ... right... (in a hugh grant kind of way)
  2. Thanks, chez. I might crop that one down a bit later, as it is a bit long. I'll also add names and tags. Outsider's contributions are as welcome as any. BTW, I'm sorry that progress has been slow lately. There's so much going on right now. I'll have more spare time in May.
  3. oh, that's cool. Actually, that's not cool. I liked that site. [/sarcasm] doh. Anyway, he certainly does look busy... *peeks at above post*
  4. I wonder which one was my 666th. Would be pretty cool to keep it there, by removing your oldest post every time you make a new one. oh, that's cool. Actually, that's not cool. I liked that site.
  5. I certainly will. We need people who know their stuff. Thanks, Linearity.
  6. We'll have the picture of the wind waker zelda link to the other zelda bio. There, done, problem solved. I haven't played wind waker for long enough to find out zelda was actually in it myself, but then again, I doubt I'll ever play it again, so I don't mind that spoiler. Besides, it's not like her being in that game reveals a ton about the series, since the game stories aren't really dependent on each other.
  7. Whoa. That sucked. I don't have any reverb on the bass... I have chorus/flanger and compressors though, none of which seem to help much in either direction. Will do.
  8. I was gonna do yoshi, but now that you already have, and admittedly better than I would have, I need not. I just want to add this link: http://yoshilore.com/ . This is just the kind of fansite I'd like to find for all characters, but it doesn't seem to be all that easy. And this one: http://www.legendofzelda.com/ should go with the other bio (as well as ganon's and link's. I'll add them both to their respective bios. Also, on the Mario Kart bio - I was really not intending us to have one, but since it's already done, and considering its contents, I've changed my mind. While Samus doesn't really need two different bios (and neither does Princess Zelda, btw), Mario in his Kart really represents a whole new franchise and its own series that deserves and needs its own bio and clarification. Good call, watkinzez.
  9. Yeah, well, I tried to meddle with the EQ settings in reason, and whenever I managed to get the bass frequencies not to muddle everything else, there was hardly any bass left... :-/
  10. LOL No, I guess not. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong... Why is it all so muddy? Even without the bass, I mean. The EQ bar does even reach red... I'll mess around with the EQ some and try to improve that. I'm also looking for a more suitable bass, and a better transition between the original theme section and the piano section. In other words...? What?
  11. Meh, sorry. Yeah, I agree on most of what you said. The piano theme doesn't quite fit in, but then again, what would? Also, I'm really confused about the bass. I've tried a whole bunch of bass samples and they keep ending up muddy like that. About the pizz: I actually made the attack slower because prophet didn't like it at first. After a few listens, though, it's become clear that I need to compensate this lack of attack by playing the notes earlier or something.
  12. SirRus was the real loss there.
  13. He'd probably be up for it. Keeps posting a new WiP every other week or so. Dunno if he ever finishes what he starts, but hey.
  14. There's no drummer. I agree on the rest of what you said though.
  15. I didn't ask you to run around the thread looking for it... we weren't to post our urls in the open, remember? I PM'ed you last time and the url is the same. I'll PM you again. Anyway, by the looks of that list you just posted, it certainly does look like we're in dire need of additional remixers.
  16. My god, you're right. Metroid is almost as old as I am. And if I'm pushing 20, then so is the game. Amazing how people are still playing it though. I mean, will anyone play the games of today in 20 years? Anyway, while removing spoilers from existing bios can wait until we're approaching project completion, it's something to consider when writing new bios. I shall add spoiler policies to the first post as soon as we've agreed on what our policies are.
  17. What about me? I still haven't received any comments whatsoever on a song that's been lying about for a week and a half by now. You sure don't seem to be in a hurry for this project to reach completion. Not that commenting on my song will make much difference now that about half of the tracks are less than 50% complete 2 months after the intended final deadline. Looks like you need to find some new remixers, Aeth. I won't be quitting on you anytime soon, but if progress is going to continue to be this slow, I'm not sure this project is going to be allowed to stay on the forums. Come on, it's your project! I can advertise our need for replacements in my sig if you want, but you really should try to do more yourself.
  18. Well... this is one reason why I don't write a lot of bios. I haven't played most of the games that the mascots are in. In general, I suggest we avoid revealing stuff about a character that's supposed to be found out during gameplay (i.e. Spoilers). Samus, I think, was believed by many to be male, at first, and the truth about her gender was only revealed once the original Metroid game had actually been beaten. Ever since, however, she's been presented as female, and revealing her being female is no longer a spoiler. Doh. So what about the other characters? The other extreme would be, for example, revealing [character X's] death at the end of the second game. Right? Remember, the bios are intended to be read by people who know nothing or very little about the character, so there's no reason to reveal anything but the basics, the fun facts and so on. If spoilers can be avoided without causing confusion or untruths, then... yeah. Sometimes, though, as in Samus' case, a character turns out to be something else than they were initially thought to be. To anyone who hasn't seen the first 3 episodes of Star Wars, Darth Vader being Luke's dad is a real spoiler. I know people who didn't realise this even when seeing all 6 movies in order. I need your opinions on this one.
  19. Lol. I'm glad I wasn't here yesterday, I guess... If he did start charging money for downloading mixes, I'd quit the project in a heart-beat and never come back. Polo - thanks for wrapping things up. The mascots are now all identified, thanks to people like you And thanks for your authenticity proof, though it wasn't really necessary. I have a really tough exam this Friday, so don't except me to post my promised bios until maybe next week. Meanwhile, keep posting your own, if you have any.
  20. If I had 10 bucks for every person that wrote as many bios as Linearity, I'd still be stinkin' poor. You've done enough for a long time, man
  21. Thanks again. You'd think someone like Linearity would come up with this... (boring pun intended). Only one mascot left to identify!
  22. i think we all gave up. Looks like.
  23. No point in listing them all when none of them has a single remix. But I would want you to provide links to guilty gear fansites and the likes.
  24. Thanks a bunch, guys. Leaves us only 2 unkown... #101 reminds me of the vampire in the graveyard in Baldur's Gate II, sort of. While similar, I wouldn't dare guess they're the one and same. They look like they could be in the same game universe though. About pac-man; since there's so little to little to write about the person, try to further emphasize his impact on the world of gaming, the fact that the first game has a gazillion (well, maybe not quite that many) flash remakes online... or something. We could use at least one more paragraph here. And please, add links to your bios! This one would go well with the pac-man bio: http://www.flamingmayo.com/firstchurchofpacman/ . We could even have a link that says "Play pac-man now!" We could leave this linkage work for later, but it'd be so much easier if we all just did it right away.
