This has to be the silliest thing I've ever read.

Gonna echo what the other Js have said (ha ha, get it? because of the reverb? ha ha...ha...ha... .__. ). This mix is a giant haze of guitar sound. There's too much reverb; I can barely appreciate what you've done in the percussion because it is basically impossible to make out underneath the mush of the guitars. The arrangement isn't doing it for me either. The intensity hovers around the same level throughout the entire piece; there are no dynamics. Even the ending is a simple vamp and fade-out, which I generally don't have a problem with, but in this case it sounds like the piece on auto-pilot and you ran out of ideas. Needs a lot of work, IMO. Arrangement may not suffer from medly-itis, but it's still really boring. You've gotta balance your sounds more and make things more clear and defined. Scale back the reverb, balance your levels, and take a hard look at the structure of your piece. NO

Zircon is a judge. What are you talking about?

It's a start. Can you send me PSDs?

Facebook works for us. We get a lot of eyes on our stuff through Facebook. The more people that like our page, the more we can promote everyone's hard work.

The conversation has evolved into a discussion of OCR's stance on chiptunes and whether or not there should be an adjustment. It doesn't really help to just keep saying "well that's how it is guys that's what they keep saying."

That's what we do.

Hey, knock it off.

Oni's theme is basically a remix of Akuma's theme from the same game.

... It's a joke.

Mixing stage for Hadouken Bracket begins NOW. Check the first post for match-ups. In addition, I'd like some artists to see if they can put together a logo or some bracket images for the competition. Something that holds true to the visual style of Street Fighter games.

Need one more person.

I'd like to start this tomorrow, so we need two more people. If we don't get two more people before tomorrow I will run the draft and set up the first bracket for its mixing stage and see if we can get two more people to sign up during the course of next week. Those people will have to choose a theme not already covered by any other participants.

He said capitalist extortion, not just extortion.

My point was that the "non-source" stuff wasn't something like completely unrelated original chord progressions + original melodies tacked onto the arrangement solely for the purpose of showcasing original writing. Just clarifying.

3 slots left. Let's fill 'em up, people.

Yoko Shimomura is a top-tier, S-rank VG composer. Also one of my most favorite composers.

Why is that?

Basically any ReMix by Mark Vera.

Oni's theme is a remix of Akuma's theme from SFIV. They would be counted as the same theme in the draft, so your picks would be 1. Oni (SFIV) 2. Abel (SFIV) 3. M. Bison (SFIV) 4. Seth (SFIV) 5. Sagat (SFA3 - Shining One) Is this correct?

Yeah some people just play games differently I guess. Anyway I got ME3 on PC. My origin name is DarkeSword so you folks can add me if you'd like. I would like to play some multiplayer sometime because I heard that it really helps with Readiness.

Let's get it on now! Select and make ya first pick! Let's get it on now! 10 9 8 7 6 Let's get it on now! Choose and pick tha best one! Let's get it on now! 5 4 3 2 1

Sure, I can put it into the rotation of competitions. xD

It isn't actually, because they shouldn't be charging for extra characters.

Hey guys, keep the discussion focused on the competition, please. This isn't a general Street Fighter thread, alright? I don't want to have to wade through posts just to find peoples' picks. Also wanna encourage anyone signing up to branch out from SF2 and look at tracks from other games. Not a requirement, but it'd be nice to get some variety.
