  1. Guys, I have a Mass Effect 2 Digital Deluxe Edition I'm trying to unload for either $7.50 (via PayPal) or for your best trade offer. Send me a PM if you're interested.
  2. Also wanted to say that with round 8, you guys have broken the 5 hour mark in terms of how much music you've written for this competition.
  3. Apologies about results and tallies guys. I'll try to catch up with all that stuff this week. Mixes are up and available for download. Just want to point out something about voting that I've noticed in the past two rounds, though: Voting closes at 12:00PM EST. It doesn't matter if I haven't gotten around to posting a "voting is closed" thing in the voting thread precisely at noon. The main thread for the competition (this one) clearly states that the voting stage ends at noon. If your vote is after 12:00PM I'm not going to count it (excluding my votes; I'm running the competition).
  4. This week's theme is .
  5. So uh...Valve decided to give this game to me as a gift from the Gift Pile. I have no idea what I'm doing but it's all very pretty.
  6. I got the Dota 2 beta from one of the Christmas achievements. Pretty cool game, but I am super bad at it, even against bots.
  7. Okay seriously though guys. Mixes due tomorrow. Don't be late.
  8. Normally I would step in and say stay on topic guys. Normally.
  9. Don't really see this as conservative. Vampire Killer alone has a lot of rhythmic stuff going on that you don't see in the original in terms of how the different parts lock together. This is a very organic, emotive piece of work with great use of dynamics and syncopation. Love your transitions and movement between pieces. Definitely YES.
  10. My remix is called Blue Skies Over Guardia, not Blue Skies.
  11. The trailer for next year's film, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, is up on YouTube. Peter Jackson is doing it again, and there are some familiar faces in the cast. I gotta say, that song that they sing in this trailer is gorgeous.
  12. Sure you can. There is no rule that says you can't.
  13. Don't understand all the complaining about this week's Wily Theme. As arrangers you should all be pretty chuffed; this theme has an incredibly simple melody and chord progression which lends itself really well to basically anything you want to do. It's like telling people in a cooking competition this week's secret ingredient is potatoes. By itself a potato is pretty boring, but when you start combining it with other foods it's amazing. In other words, whine less, mix more.
  14. This is the worse thing I ever heard. You cant even hear any of the original musics in it. I hate when OC REMIX thinks they can do a better job then the composers becuase THEY CANT!!!!!
  15. Ladies and gentlemen, we're taking it back to the start this week with Wily's first stage, Mega Man - Wily's Tower.
  16. When there is less to choose from, the race between competitors becomes much closer.
  17. I didn't say it wasn't a success, where did you get that from? And it's not elitist to want to limit the number of participants to make the management of the competition easier and the voting more competitive. How is the subject of elitism even coming up? Gimme a break, it's a non-issue. Brackets work in a tournament setting. Putting teams into brackets changes the entire format and extends the duration of competition two-fold. Not gonna happen here. Anyway I probably shouldn't have said anything in the first place, so let's just drop it. WCRG isn't happening again for another year or so anyway.
  18. It will be a long while before I do another compo in this format, but the next time I do, I'm going to limit the number of teams to five or six. Twelve teams is just a lot.
  19. Meteo: don't discourage someone if they're just gauging interest. Rozo: this forum is fine for this kind of thing.
  20. Sonic 3D Blast, not Jam. Drums are a really boring, and the bass just sounds like a lot of low frequency booming.
  21. Round 10 is the last round and we're going to do something special.
  22. Round 6 is up. Enjoy.
