  1. This week's theme is .
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Okay seriously though guys. Mixes due tomorrow. Don't be late.
  5. Normally I would step in and say stay on topic guys. Normally.
  6. 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.
  7. My remix is called Blue Skies Over Guardia, not Blue Skies.
  8. 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.
  9. Sure you can. There is no rule that says you can't.
  10. 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.
  11. 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!!!!!
  12. Ladies and gentlemen, we're taking it back to the start this week with Wily's first stage, Mega Man - Wily's Tower.
  13. When there is less to choose from, the race between competitors becomes much closer.
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. Meteo: don't discourage someone if they're just gauging interest. Rozo: this forum is fine for this kind of thing.
  17. Sonic 3D Blast, not Jam. Drums are a really boring, and the bass just sounds like a lot of low frequency booming.
  18. Round 10 is the last round and we're going to do something special.
  19. Round 6 is up. Enjoy.
  20. Check first post for this week's wily theme. Got 10 mixes this week. Had to fix some file names. Also for The Skull Men, even though Luke was supposed to mix this week, Jakesnke17 sent in a mix instead, which means Jake went twice in this set. You guys should send me a PM before doing something like that. I'm not going to disqualify the mix because it sounds like a lot of work went into it and it doesn't actually exceed the hard quota (i.e. only three rounds per mixer) for the competition, but I really wish you guys would have cleared it with me first. :\ Jake, if we look at the scoreboard we can see that since you missed out on your first week and did mixes for two other weeks, you've done "three weeks" now. This means until we hit Round 10, your team members will have to cover the rest of the competition. Specifically, one more mix from Chernabogue, and two mixes from Luke. Mixes will be up later today, and scores and tallies will be updated either tonight, tomorrow, or Monday at the latest.
  21. You people always think you can get the one up on me. You can't get the one up on DR WILY.
