There's nothing wrong with posting multiple versions of a WIP. That's the prerogative of the artist. I don't even know why it's even an issue to be discussed. This also doesn't belong in WIP.

People like controversy, and if none-exists, they pretend it does because they're bored.

I'm not gonna touch the first part of your post, but I wanna address this: call me crazy, but I think that if you're going to sell an album of arrangements, you should do it legally and get the rights. :\

'He did it once and we took it down, then he did it again, and we took it down again, and then he did it again after we put it back up, so we had to take it down again, but then he etc.' That's a pattern. It's logical to assume that if a vulnerable site is put back up, it will get attacked again.

Recognizing patterns and drawing logical conclusions from those patterns isn't "knowing everything." It's using intelligence to make sound decisions.

That's the Boba Fett stuff that's going to be covered, not post-RotJ stuff. Lucas already said that he's not going to do anything post-RotJ because it's all covered in the novels and stuff. Practically the entire EU was in the post-RotJ once upon a time except for like...Tales of the Jedi.

Except that the faults inherent in the system eventually lead to there being nothing at all anyway. The old code has vulnerabilities that will be exploited. Why spend all that time starting the site back up when it's just going to get taken down again. In other words: if the site is unusable, it's the same thing as having nothing at all. It's not pretentious to say that the end-user deserves a site that's not going to go down all the time, run slowly, or have security holes in it that could potentially compromise passwords and other sensitive information. There's a lot more to VGMix than just song storage you know. :\ I understood your analogy just fine, thanks. I also explained why your analogy doesn't make sense. It's flawed and it doesn't apply.

That's becoming more and more apparent. Your PSP analogy doesn't even make sense. Your old PSP still works just fine, so yeah, you can still use it. VGMix2 doesn't work just fine. Normally I don't like using the "if you can't do it better don't criticize" argument, but it really makes sense here. You're not a programmer, so you don't understand that working with undocumented code that's riddled with holes and vulnerabilities is a waste of time. Putting VGMix2 back up and trying to hack together solutions to problems that arise: that's not solving the problem; that's just making quick fixes that will break down in the long run. Any programmer can tell you that that's a poor development practice, and ultimately it's irresponsible to the end-user.

If you followed the whole thing going on with VGMix2, you'd know that relaunching it isn't really doable. As far as I understand it, all the code for VGMix2 was filled with holes and not really documented well; trying to add new features would have been a nightmare. That's part of the reason they decided to shut down the site and decide to build VGMix3 from scratch. The current incarnation (VGMixX) is, as far as I understand it, and intermediary version of the site with some basic song management functionality. It's got nowhere near the planned feature-set of VGMix3.

Which is kind of a shame especially when that attitude spills over to other places. There was a thread a little while ago where some dude was crapping on some girl's FF7-arrangement project at another site because she was doing straight up sound-upgrades, and he posted about it over here all indignant and shit, like OCR owns the concept of remixing or something. I was like, "What do you want us to do man? Let her do what she wants, she's doing it all by ear anyway." Of course it inevitably lead to people crapping on VotL for no reason over on that site, causing a whole mini-flamewar that nobody actually representative of OCR was even involved in. Nothin' wrong with covers or arrangements, different strokes for different folks. God forbid someone just wants hear Nobuo's original version of Cosmo Canyon that doesn't sound like it's being played by a 10+ year old soundchip. Just don't submit that shit here because I'll NO OVERRIDE that crap hardcore.

Ugh. Free weekend this Friday.

It's not worth seeing in the theater. That doesn't mean it's bad. It's just a that it's a TV show. For the record, as a long time Star Wars fan, I liked it a lot.

Maybe it's a gun that makes people drop sandwiches when you kill them.

Aaah damn. It's just Sudden Death mode turned into a gametype. Crap.

Nekofrog sent me an updated version of this track: http://www.metalfrog.org/music/chronotrigger/ctdone.mp3 Plz jooj it.

Agreed, because in the end it doesn't matter where the music is FROM, but what the music IS.

I had a dream about TF2 last night. The new gametype was called "Restaurant," and it was basically the two teams running around trying to cap as much food as possible. The Heavy had a wheelbarrow and the Soldier had a shield made of scrap-metal. I need to go to bed earlier. :\

There is absolutely no reason for you to make a NEW thread just to tell us you're buying a Wii.

This might help you out Neonlare.

Pyro ones you didn't have to go out of your way to do either. I got pretty much all of them during the course of normal gameplay, except maybe the axe ones which I got during some melee only sessions when there were like 5 people on the server.

Found this on InsertCredit: http://www.tecmo.co.jp/product/nostalgeo/index.html It looks like a really fun RPG for DS. It's developed by the same folks that did the Final Fantnasy III and IV DS games, and it's got kind of a Skies-of-Arcadia-mixed-with-Indiana-Jones vibe to it. Apparently it's going to include airship battles in addition to the regular character battles. The character designs also have that old-school adventure anime look to them which is nice. And I've gotta say, that song on the website is pretty great.

Yeah

Alright, you know what, everybody? Enough of that. Please don't start annoying me, it's not going to get the stuff out any sooner, okay?
