Releases also get put in the Workshop.

Green Amnesia, by DiscoDan.

Wow Jade, you're like those jerks on The Price is Right who always bid "Five hundred and ONE" after the previous contestant bids five hundred dollars.

caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake

They are too busy playing NEO GEO ROMS.

The CIA doesn't care about your Geneva Convention.

Played and beat this weeks ago. A masterpiece.

rofl Yeah I'm pretty sure people most gamers don't even know what boycott means.

Putting everything in the cloud is a horrible idea. A couple of weeks ago Google decided to lock me out of my Google account for a couple of days without any kind of warning. I couldn't access Gmail, Reader, Calendar, anything. The reason? I still don't know. The only thing I could think of was maybe some IMAP gone wonky? They never told me why, just "sorry for the inconvenience." I'm not interested in a company being able to hold my data hostage like that. Also, kind of tangental, but I really hate that people don't differentiate between an Operating System and a Shell anymore. I know that this is both because it's based on Linux, but still.

Brushfire, knock it off. Only warning.

We have a new Social Group feature on OCR, and we're trying it out with gaming communities and album projects. We've got a TF2 group here where people can make multiple discussions based on different topics pertaining to TF2. Join up, please. http://ocremix.org/forums/group.php?groupid=1

Stop talking about Left 4 Dead 2 in the TF2 thread.

Not really knocking VGMix here, yes, that was the concept, but in practice, the people ranking remixes on VGMix eventually boiled down to a few regulars that numbered around the same size of OCR's panel. But anyway, I think a lot of people are assuming a lot about what's being considered as far as a revision of the Workshop section of OCR. Forget about rating and ranking and doing what VGMix did; the basic idea that's being tossed around is giving artists the ability to "release" a song on OCR by tying it to the database and making artist released tracks searchable by game and all that other nice stuff. No, they won't be tagged as OC ReMixes, and yes, you'd still have to submit and go through the process to get posted on the front page and all that jazz, but it's more about taking stuff that people release out of a "forum" context and make it something far more browsable. Instead of creating a thread that gets lost in a sea of "check out my first remax," you add your remix to a catalog of Workshop mixes. Hypothetically we could even host them (but I'm not in any position to commit to that kind of thing). It's all very cerebral/conceptual right now, but the basic idea is not to replace OCR's current Panel system or to ape VGMix's tiers and ranks, but to make the Workshop more functional for artists trying to release their work and for listeners trying to find the latest mixes the community has to offer. Also, Mono, when people talk about improving the WIP forum and other people say "it's fine, it works in the end," the discussion isn't really about promoting work but about getting meaningful feedback for the purposes of submitting. It's really a different discussion altogether.

You're making far too many assumptions about what OCR is and what OCR isn't.

It's justifiable. Don't discount it (ha ha get it?) just because it's 2D.

Wat. Portuguese is the best singing language.

It's really good but sometimes it's frustrating when your brother jumps on your head making you fall into a pit.

You ought to scale back the vitriol.

I would take you up on the offer but right now I don't have a computer I can play the game on.

Seriously? This is a thread about VIDEO GAME MUSIC and you put it in Off-topic? Goddamn it, you should know better. Just for that I'm renaming your topic to something dumb.

The effect that pregame mayhem has on stats is negligible in the longrun. When you have 14000 kills and 15000 deaths, a couple of pregame mayhem kills are not going to affect overall trends.

I bought this game for PS3. It's really jawesome. I love my incendiary sniper rifle.

caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake

Please don't bring me into this argument. I have said that I care about long-term stats because I get an accurate representation of how well I do overall. Getting slain by admin command at the end of a map is a drop in the bucket for me and doesn't affect my long term trends.
