Mid-January sounds fine. I know I said I would shoot for Thanksgiving, but you know exactly what happened and I felt as if you needed some time alone. Nevertheless, this shit will get done and you know you approved of the arrangement enough for me to take it all the way!

And shipped! Hopefully it'll arrive to your place safely

One section of my recipient's gifts have gone out and through the digital tubes today. I'm still working on the physical side!

I've been preparing to make a start with my person! You know me too well - I love a challenge

Basically, Yellow is based more on Season 1 of the Pokemon anime (aka the one that most of us grew up with). You can actually get access to more Pokemon in that game than Red and Blue, with obvious exceptions in Team Rocket's Pokemon, the Beedrill line that tainted Ash's time in Viridian Forest, the elemental-humanshape-trio (Jynx / Electrode / Magmar)... and of course, Raichu. You also still have a choice between the two Hitmons and the Dome or Helix Fossils. In addition, your Rival starts off with an Eevee (in which you eventually get and you get to pick what form you want to give it). The Eeveelution he gives it at the end actually depends on how well you do in your first two fights against him.

I signed up yesterday! Can't wait to get started

Oh my! I felt really surprised when I heard about RBY coming onto the 3DS, but equally surprised to see the Link Cable also getting a workaround. I'm game for going back to Kanto the old-school way!

Heck yes, I'm up for it again! I'll sign up when I get PC access tomorrow. Can't wait to go at it again

Brandon, I can tell you now the arrangement will be done by tonight. Stand by on Facebook in a few hours!

I echo that sentiment as well. I've been on an album that I was excited to see its release, but a last minute change held it back for months. (no, I'm not talking about Super Dodge Ball, if this is what you guys were thinking... ) That said, while I did say it's all up to you in how to direct this Ivan, it appears that you've got some valid options from some of the other artists. By allowing for both more popularly-covered games AND a time extension that has no real historic significance, I have a feeling this would kill what seemed to be your initial goal for this project. In fact, I'm with jnWake in thinking that adding more popular games would also hinder the general feel behind the project full stop. As for OCRA vs OCRI, do remember that while we are going for a very niche audience, the amount of love we give to the games in question is what truly matters. Whether it gets released this year or next, the album will still do its job in wowing a generation that grew up with the PS1. Other than that, there's not much to add that hadn't been added already.

I admit I had been musically quiet. I have several album tracks being worked on simultaneously, as well as working hard on SMD. (The RadioSEGA regulars don't bite, honest - you're free to listen in tomorrow if you're around!) Outside of that, I had been improving my sewing skills as of late. It really gives me something to focus on when I can't focus on much else, plus I'd learn new tricks in time for when/if I next take part in the OCR Secret Santa. I'm also planning out a potential solo EP idea too. I just got to hope I have the mental stamina to pull it off... *_*

How about we bring back what I jokingly said last year and propose a Bad Pun flood? Because what better way to honor great, creative music than groan-inducing titles?

I'm sorry Meteo, but there's a fine line between changing something up radically and just catering for the market. As Pipez said, it all comes down to whether the kids would actually catch on to it or not, and if they do, fair play. Nostalgia isn't going to get anywhere, but if it's something the kids had seen too many times before from different characters, it's absolutely not going to work. It's a shipwreck almost waiting to happen. In relation to The Coop's posts about 80s cartoons being given the dreadful movie approach, may I also bring up Alvin and the Chipmunks? Sure, it started in the 60s as a novelty 'band' of sorts, but I grew up with the 80s cartoon and understood it kept its format from another Chipmunks show as done in the 60s, Right now, I am in disbelief as to how they keep making so many films about them, especially since there's not much substance beyond 'singing rodents cause havoc and make a butt monkey out of their manager', and critic scores absolutely show. However, the one redeeming feature for the Chipmunks is that in spite of all the modern music updates, it nails the original premise. Awful films or not, it's the Chipmunks as they should be. Going back to Jem, we all already know at this point that we have a terrible loose adaptation coming that won't fuel nostalgia in any shape or form, and that to me is a new low just to get a quick buck. I don't know if there are any other movie adaptations that had gone as far as changing up the plot of their source material entirely, but unless any examples of these come to the surface, then I feel we 'adults-around-30-preparing-for-a-prep' have a reason have a reason to complain. (Seriously, kids may be easily marketable, but they sure as hell aren't stupid.)

I am SOOOO HAPPY with my arrangement right now! I guess all it needs is a good helping of coined-by-DJ-EAR magical glittery glue, and this sucker will be good to go over the next couple of days. I love this feeling so much!

Hakstok, I have tried my best and got my arrange in a great form, but I am still not quite done yet, and I also have tomorrow's SEGA Mixer Drive to organise. I may need another couple of days with the way this is going, but no more than that. That, and it also didn't help that life got in the way over the past few days. I'm in a position to truck onwards, though.

So I guess this means this is a rare case that when I finally export this, I should turn the Master Bus off? o_O It's gonna sound really difficult being handled by someone else, haha.

This is kind of out of the blue, but I sent in a membership request just now. Don't beat yourself up - it appears to be a very humble group to me, and I can't ask for any better [EDIT: That was quick. Thanks!]

I sent a message to you over facebook. You got a good roster already, and I'm game to also help you out.

Ah, thanks for the WIP deadline update. Not only does this give me more time to polish this up, but it also means I can divert my attention directly to Chernabogue all weekend.

I still say you should do it. Part of the reasoning why DusK revisited Zenpyo was because of his close friendship with Dj Mokram, whom also separated himself from the Internet and cut off all social links. Just like Gray, we thought he too was gone for good. (And then he actually came back, but that's another story.) A lot of us really miss Gray too. When I started out he was the most optimistic and cool-headed judge I ever had the joy to get in touch with. He would be so pleased to see the site in its current form

Guys, HOLD THE PHONE. Forget about every kickstarter in this thread - the only one that matters is Shenmue 3! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ysnet/shenmue-3/ I never played 1 & 2, but my heart bled out to the fans that had clammered for this for nearly 15 years. This was a sequel that needed to be made long ago - and with enough fan support, it would absolutely get there! I'm sorry, I am so excited for this right now

I'm sorry Alex, but I'm likely to be no more than a week late after everything I've been through this week. Luckily, you know that I'm just on that final stretch, so I'm sure I won't leave you hanging too long.

My best PS3 Platinum is by far Sonic Unleashed, if only because of the Hot Dog stages alone. The entire game indeed took a lot of time and patience, especially to try and get through the Eggmanland Time Trial without dying, THREE TIMES. (Footage provided by SonicJGB) It gives you 45 minutes to clear it in, which isn't so bad once you start getting used to it. But my god it is some AWKWARD difficulty curve.

*facepalm* GSO, I believe it's best that you read the OP's purpose / read replies before you even jump straight in with your first thoughts. prophetik is in to build other people's PCs, not do recommendations for pre-packaged PCs you want to get. To answer your question though, if you're thinking of doing video editing on a laptop, I highly recommend that you find one with a stronger processor (2GHz multi-core at the minimum is my suggestion) and at least 4GB of RAM - main reasoning being that CSS 5.5, Vegas 10 and Final Cut Pro typically recommend these before you consider using them. If you have more money to burn, consider going towards a quad-core processor and doubling the minimum stated RAM for more intensive editing. Either way, they'll still degrade faster than a desktop PC due to their build.

I too was too young to get into the Jem cartoons, being a toddler by the time it finished. But just from 15 minutes of reading up the show's premise BEFORE watching that trailer, I have to say it makes Michael Bay's TMNT movie look like the Magna Carta. Seriously, if you're going to translate a beloved cartoon to the big screen, at least keep as many of the core elements as possible. Of all the ways they could have made Jem relevant for the 2010s, changing the original leading-double-life-and-helping-others toon into a into a tween rags-to-riches / personality identity story completely stripped its own persona. Then again, I complain at almost every remake there is, so it may just be the cynical old lady in me talking. But at least I know that I'm still not alone.
