MOST releases of albums in MP3 format (like game music and stuff) follows the track number - track name convention. I'm not saying it's a standard--it's a convention, and I think it's a good one. I think ID3 tags are enough. Practically any MP3 playing software and hardware supports tags. People saying "OCREMIX MADE THIS" will be ignorant regardless.

Most people at OCR are replying to either the first post in the thread or the post before theirs, unless a post is specifically quoted. Come on man, you've been around long enough to know that.

Those guys weren't even in Street Fighter 3. Why would they be in four?

The filename is too (goddamn) long. I had a similar problem. Go into your command prompt (Start>Run>"cmd"), navigate to the directory, and use the ren command to rename the file to something shorter. For future projects, we should refrain from putting artists in the filenames, especially if there are approximately one million artists for a specific track. Track Number and Track Title only, please. Edit: contributing to this problem is the fact that it's located deep inside a directory structure with long folder names. I had a similar problem; this is the fault of ourselves, obsessive-compulsive as we are about organization of music files.

Isn't there a GSF available? D:

Mario Kart 64 Party in the Snowland http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01069/ Zelda, Ocarina of Time O Stormy Night http://darkesword.com/listen/remix/mp3/stormy.mp3 <-- very old, pre-FLStudio DarkeSword

To be honest, I hope that the majority of the cast is NEW characters, with notable legacy ones. Ken and Ryu are mandatory, Chunli is the First Lady of Fighters, and Makoto needs to be in there (to prevent the aforementioned destruction of the Earth). Other than that, I'm good with a brand new cast.

Uh...the Zero series ended with 4 and then went on to become the ZX series. If there's anyone speculating that there's a 5th Zero game in the works, they have no clue as to what's going on with the series.

<allcaps> Oh Fuck Yes </allcaps> edit: I swear Makoto better be in it or I will destroy the Earth.

I think there's a tighter integration planned with remix pages and review threads than just a link back. I don't have any details, but I believe Dave mentioned something to the effect a few days ago in the j-chat.

http://twitter.com/ocremix I recently created a Twitter specifically for OCR. Right now it imports the RSS feeds for VGFrequency and Latest Remixes. Depending on how many people follow it, I, along with other judges, may occasionally update it with random bits of worthwhile knowledge. Or, if you'd prefer, fart jokes. If you use Twitter (like me, though I prefer pownce), you can keep up with OCR by following ocremix. Enjoy.

I like the footer and after-first-post ideas. I think the sidebar is barren in long threads, and ads would fill it out nicely. Also, has any consideration been given to selling ad space? OCR gets a lot of pageviews and it's a fairly specific demographic. I could imagine certain companies wanting to advertise. Of course, we'd have to have specific policies in place as to what ads we'd allow, i.e. no flash, we'd have to approve the content, etc. I think it might be worth persuing, in addition to Google Ads. Just a thought.

Check your "View" dropdown menu in the toolbar (if you don't have one, right click the toolbar to customize it and add the View dropdown menu). Check to see if it's set to "unread" and change it to "all."

You have a tendency to overreact to this kind of stuff.

... The Goddamn DarkeSword? You know, I did do a remix of this game once, but I used my orch samples. Great game, great music. Maybe I'll throw down.

You know you can use any router with FiOS, right?

Mine is still more depressing.

I once told a girl I mixed music. "Oh, are you a DJ? :D" "Uh...no, not really, a DJ..." I never got any action.

Really? I thought it was way too stiff unless you had a high WPM.

Uh, just want to clarify, this isn't a thread about anything other than the PHYSICS in Mario games. Don't really care too much about power-ups and secret levels.

Well I like the other ones too.

What's your username?

Icon Buffet http://www.iconbuffet.com/ So this site is pretty neat. You sign up for it (you can use an OpenID if you want), and then every once in a while you get a small set of icons (that you can download and use on on your OS or your website, etc.). Then you start sending and trading icons with other people, because everyone has different icon sets that you can only get by having them sent to you. I only have a few sets so far, and I don't really visit the site that often, but the icons they have are pretty nice. And they have some video game themed ones too. Try it out, add me as a friend, and send me some icons. I'll send you icons too.

Not first; I played a LOT of SMB1 when I was little, before SMB3 even came out. But I think it's that I've always returned to SMB3 over the years that makes it feel "perfect" for me.
