DarkeSword   Administrators 🎮

I'll see if I can put together some team banners. I'm still working out the look of the competition.

Your dedication to good metadata makes me cry tears of joy.

This thread is a general Q&A/detail thread for Final Fantasy V - The Fabled Warriors, OCR’s FF5 album series.
About
There are 5 albums in The Fabled Warriors: WIND, WATER, FIRE, EARTH, and DAWN. Each album is comprised of arrangements written as character themes of important characters in the game and the job classes made available by the respective crystals. The fifth album doesn’t correspond to a crystal, as there is no “Dawn” crystal in the game; instead it covers the additional job classes available in the Gameboy Advance re-release.
Schedule
WIND was released in September 2010. WATER was released in May 2016. FIRE is targeted for 2018. This is not a release date or a promise, just a goal. EARTH, and DAWN have no target dates. Tracklist

To sign up for a track, please provide a sample of your work that illustrates you’re able to compose and produce in the style required.
If you have a Final Fantasy V remix you’re already working on and want me to put on the project, chances are I won’t take it. The Fabled Warriors has a very specific concept, and I’m not looking for music that wasn’t written without the concept in mind. That said, I still encourage you to submit your remix to OCR, because there is always room for more FF5 remixes, whether they are on the project or not.
Feel free to ask any questions you have about the project.

I'm fine with tags.

Alright, looks like Kapden didn't check in. The spot goes to @Jorito!! Teams are filled, all remixers have checked in. Make sure you head over to your clubhouses on Discord and get those source selections and squad rosters to me by Friday!

A decent if standard gacha game. Art and interface are nice, good gameplay but some battles can be tough; becomes grindy early on.

@MegaDrive has checked in on Discord. If I don't hear from @Kapden today, @Jorito has offered to fill  his spot.
Once the teams are finalized here's what you need to do:
Teams must assign one source from the source list for their team to each team member. There are 11 sources available to assign to 9 people (the 2 extra are to give people more of a choice). The source you're assigned will be your source throughout the duration of the competition. Teams must divide into three 3-man squads. Teams must provide me with a schedule of remixers for the next three rounds. Each squad will have one person remixing each round. Here's an example:
| Squad A | Squad B | Squad C | Round 1 | Rock | Kalinka | Blues | Round 2 | X | Roll | Zero | Round 3 | Volnutt | Alia | Chaud |  

Folks: a lot of the team discussion for this competition is going to happen in the Discord channels. Make sure you're idling and/or making yourself available to your teammates via that service. Discord has very good smartphone clients and custom alert settings. I would suggest using this thread here on the forums to coordinate team meetings on Discord.

Your dedication to good metadata is a shining beacon in the bleak sea of "Various Artists."

My shovels have been steeled.

Looks good! As I said before, I'm ready when everyone else is!

Ready to roll!
