ouch, that's not looking good X.x But if this keeps persisting, I'm still going to end up extending time until we get a new challenger or two. I can only go as far back as Monday morning as we need time for the winner of the contest to pick a source material too. I can't believe it might even come to that

Your new deadline is Sunday, February 11th at 10AM GMT. Same time, different day.

okay, only two entries and it's Saturday. As far as I'm concerned, that's not enough to start a voting spree upon. The way I see it, I'll extend the deadline by 24 hours to make room for any more new challengers. I really hope that we can get just a little more of a push from this. (hah, do my source tunes usually cause delays like this? )

There's a quick reminder that you have 23 hours left to make your mixes. Please, get cracking for the sake of PRC musics.

Nario goes to church?! I do see what you mean though. This week I've got to prepare about 12 pages of design documentation for my research and development project. I take the second semester is the busier of the two.

I don't know for myself, but it is a free game with music. And lately we've had Cave Story get some remix coverage out here, also being a free game with music (albeit through an executable file rather than Flash). It might be acceptable, but I say ask the judges before you make haste on covering it.

Malcos did a steadier variation on the Sonic 1 boss theme. I also recall versions done by Mustin and Sefiros, but we have to wait til VGMix comes back up or someone has their versions stored somewhere.

PRC86's Secret of Mana related compo received quite the mixed reaction, but regardless, the end result was that there was a healthy amount of coverage with six songs unleashed as a result. Somehow I'm seeing the Mana series to be a good omen for me, as I took the win with some orchestral... new age... thing. Nevertheless, it's time we got PRC87 going, and this one will have some good ol' fashioned PlayStation coverage. In Little Samson, you had a flying mystical lizard for an ally. In Secret of Mana, you rode a flying mystical lizard into the air to traverse the map once you obtained some kind of drum. In this game, however, you ARE the flying mystical lizard. Man, this takes me back to the times when I was merely a pre-teen in gaming growth. There was just so much that I came to love about this series in its inconception - vast and mystical worlds to roam around in, a great balance between free combat and challenge, and may I say there were some beautiful graphics considering it ran on a primitive disc system. But what got me more impressed than most was the musical score, done here by Stewart Copeland from the Police. Though he merely scored the first four console titles, the series in general had some powerful music to coincide with the atmosphere of the area that you're in, and especially in the case of the PS1 titles they've been composed in such a way that many of these would work well as strong standout instrumentals in their own right. This source in particular is what I feel is one of the strongest examples of that, combining some strong melodic ideas with heavy emphasis on stringed sounds and various pitched percussion. I hope as a result of seeing what there is, we may get some powerful recognition as a result. Best of luck to everyone who decides to take part Spyro the Dragon - Opening Theme MIDI | MP3 Before anyone asks about the thread title, everyone should know that 87 is Liontamer's favorite number, apprently.

Huzzah! PRC needs another female or two

I see that those are the words coming out from either a guy who was there during the judgment of the source tune, or a guy who drank Caribbean rum with their lunch today. Which is it, you'll find out on Friday

Don't say it, it'll only make us more terrified X_x Whichever is the case, I'll send another mailshot over the weekend and see what everyone's up to. Odds are we may even NEED a second guy to help out.

Doesn't help when I can't even edit the thread titles. But yeah. I need to start pestering Douli on a more frequent basis.

Right, it's now time to cast the results. As I said, I can't believe how quiet some of you were! Total number of mixes - 6 Total number of votes - 9 (you guys are still pathetic @.@) Highest possible score - 54 Anorak finished in last place with 19 points. xela made his way to fifth place with 22 points. Nario achieved a surprising fourth place finish with 29 points. avaris followed on by reaching third place with 34 points. Villainelle started her (is it a her?) time in the PRC with a second place finish, obtaining 44 points. And the winner of PRC86 is Rexy with 46 points! Great, once again I'm going to be the one picking a source tune. No worries, I've got ideas circulating. I'll make sure to make PRC87 a good one. Also, you can all slap me on the back for the whole ORC announcement from the last PRC. TO told me it would start up again, but I haven't heard much back yet. So yes, please cut some slack. o_O Regardless, I hope to see you all again for PRC87. Be here by Friday at Noon board time.

Wow, you guys are really quiet voters. There's 10 hours and 30 minutes remaining if you need to cast your vote and/or fix anything. What can I say? Hop to it. Also, someone make me a mod so I can actually edit these stupid topic titles. I don't even know who did the routine for me in PRC85, but to be frank, this time without the power to edit the actual topic title is starting to get a little bit annoying.

Let me quickly bring this up in fear of it dropping from the GenDisc page again. I can never be too careful. >.<

Okay, I got it. I'll go on to host it on the webspace and get the compo started promptly.

I suppose we'll wait for you. But we know we faced problems in the past PRCs waiting for you to submit your entry. I don't want to sound like Judge Rexy here, but something needs to be done about that.

I've done my song too. Just need to title it and put it on the webspace. Before anyone asks when they hear it, the guitar parts didn't work so I layered down a harpsichord instead. Providing I'll find time tonight, that's what I'll be doing so that I don't face strain tomorrow other than getting the RAR together. With that said, get cracking - there's only 13 hours left! **Ba-dump. Ba-dump.**

I don't think there's many games in my collection that I thought are much better than what the critics said, but I do like to give Animaniacs on the original Gameboy a shout here. People said that it was an atrocious licence, but for me, it's no longer than Kirby's Dream Land, actually had some decent (remixable?) in-level music and it was the kind of game to keep me occupied while waiting for food every night thanks to its fair share of content and everything. Yep, like many of you, I sound like a douche.

What can we say? Money makes the world go round We have just over 24 hours left to get entries in. If you have anything, get cracking on it! It's interesting that we have four and a bonus by this stage, so I congratulate the peeps that came through so far. I've got an entry coming; I just need to layer my acoustic guitar into the mix.

Yes it is. I changed the deadline time for a reason, Alex

Right, I'll edit them out. Sorry about the mistakes. If anything I would blame a cold I caught lately, but not to worry.

PRC85 had one of the cutest source tunes I have seen in a while via a song from Little Samson, and in the end came out a horrific - in a good way - industrial mix from newcomer Another Soundscape, complete with vocals from Kholdstare, take the first place prize. For this week's PRC, he's picked a fun source for us to mess around with. I see it to be really different to experiment with than most things, but luckily for us, it's a song from a popular game within the RPG community. Are you ready to seal some Mana Seeds? Secret of Mana - Dancing Animals MIDI | MP3 | SPC I hope this will encourage Liontamer to play the game for longer than 20 minutes (quoted from VG Frequency 84). But enough thoughts about things that might not happen - I say we get cracking on and seeing what kind of results would come out of this. GOOD LUCK!
