Oh my... I'd love to (sweet source material to boot) but I already have way too much going on this week as it is. Still sucks to be held back by a bunch of animals

Couldn't you quickly get DragonAvenger to do a mini-interlude for that for a small brass group like the pair she did for FF4?

Five days left and there's quite a bunch of characters knocking on the door to barely get into the chosen 10. It's at this point that 99% of all characters got some support, so this is definitely a sweet turnout! Shame the same can't be said for the other 1%......

Amy and Mega Water S mingling in a marble-ladden labyrinth is making me think of this: http://olremix.org/remixes/274 (lyrics may not match the situation, but the backing music... YES)

Gotta have to say, there's been some solid efforts sent through for Round 1! I can definitely see there being a close call for the therex / jnWake matchup - in fact both entries surprised me a lot - but otherwise it's very thrilling stuff! I'm going to pimp a few entries on SEGA Mixer Drive tomorrow, and will continue to keep an eye on the contest's development throughout its run. In vote related news, Tuberz still needs to vote in the other two matchups for his vote in his own to be counted. Get on it, skipper!

...How's Jooj-Cat supposed to be a write in? What next, OCR-Tan? Larry, should the vote be taken in?

Delays just happen. At least we have an update Of what's going on. I can't wait either, But I've learnt to deal with it, See it run the course. You should do the same. That pledge to the kickstarter Will be worth it, yes? Trust me when I say This album will blow your minds. Better be ready! (Sorry about that But this is appropriate. Haikus ftw.)

Haha, I had no idea this moved to the announcements sub-area. I'm back on track with the votes again, and man it gets more exciting with each new one in. Larry, I think Alucard is considered safe as well xD

That's a first, sending votes towards a social group for a completely different compo! Don't worry, Darke will have you covered on a social group. One will surely be made by the time the first mixes go live. As for the Zone thing, I don't think it's relevant as not every Sonic stage is necessarily a zone; so I'm sure just 'Aquatic Base' is fine. In fact I haven't seen that convention being used since Sonic Advance 2

If the two musics are similar, then I am sure both variations can be referred to. If anything, just be glad no one has Lava Reef

See, Nate knows what he's talking about Link's Awakening is a great handheld Zelda and we know it! Let's see - while it's more likely for me to have a terrible record, I can at least state a few things: - Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly (GameCube) / Spyro: Shadow Legacy (DS) - I used to have the PS2 version of the former, but the GameCube version was just a heck of a LOT more playable and a more go-to if I needed to get any vid feeds from it. Still didn't help the quality of the game. Shadow Legacy, on the other hand, is severely broken and I was lucky to complete it twice, but one look at that and you'd see no wonder why the original arc was completely abandoned. - Animaniacs (Game Boy) - Why I played the hell out of this when I was a kid just baffles me... o.o - Guitar Hero Van Halen (Wii) - Just bought for the sake of filling up my GH game collection. Sure, if you want challenging as hell guitar charts, it's all there; but even then GH Metallica was FAR better if you want something paying a thorough homage to the band being headlined. - Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) [PS3] - Bought to catch up on all the major Sonic game releases I missed after playing through Generations. I survived a full playthrough of this though xD - Frogger (PS1) - Probably not giving it as much credit as it deserves given how Frogger games after this have gone, but all I know is that I went shopping for Rage Racer and came back with this under Mom's suggestion, and it just came off as a bland facelift. Like, what? Think that's what's around in my room for the time being. I rarely get films on DVD though as opposed to TV show discs, and even if I do it's just for enjoying the film in the first place. That said, you know something's weird if I consider the worst film in my collection to be the Rocky Horror Picture Show, but I love playing it close to Halloween anyway xD

Vyse and Proto Man seem to be getting quite the distance as well - not as much as Skull Kid and Pikachu, and DEFINITELY not as much as Amaterasu whom seems to be dominating the whole thing, but could be more than enough to secure their places as mascots. The other 5 however doesn't seem to be concrete - it's as if one or two votes could change things just drastically down there. Looking pretty exciting!

It's kind of bizarre, because through social links I got involved with one of the TSSMA albums and I didn't get hated on just because I have a few tracks on OCR (in fact the response behind was rather substantial). I saw it as a way to be able to create great arrangements while not worrying about OCR's standards too much, but I was still myself through and through.So if they don't attack the artist if they've done something for them, what ARE they attacking? That to me is the one that will be raising more questions than the mere "lol generic ocr hate" statements we often pass around o.O

Or if you're in the UK, conventions have happened in the past at Alcon (happens at Leicester every December) and the London Gaming Con (supposed to be at London every two years, but this year's event was cancelled). If anything new happens in the UK, we are sure to keep you posted

You hit 8 nail on the head for me. I just couldn't get into it at all I personally haven't played any of the recent FFs, but all I can think of is that the charm left when Uematsu left. Come to think of it, if a game cuts corners regarding any aspect of the game's presentation, then of course it doesn't compare to previous games in the series that strived to improve on it. The only question that would be raised though, is thus: why is FF9, a game that to game reviewers seemed to have also cut corners, is generally better received by fans than even FF8? The key I see with this is mostly due to its return to a more nostalgic style with hints of FF1's assets, which seemed to help its long-term likeability. From what I saw of FF13 though, it doesn't seem to be falling back in quite the same way. You can call my thoughts completely wrong, but it's all I can think of in regards to why these recent FFs aren't living up to expectations :\

Yes, but you need a third place vote before it can be counted. There's plenty of characters out there to fill that spot In unrelated news, it appears that Skull Kid is joining Amaterasu and Pikachu in regards to being definite runners, though this is quite the survey being filled out. I'm somehow intrigued over the sudden boost of interest the former received since last weekend

That's a cool idea actually! I actually tried seeing if the same was done for "The Root of All Things" in spite of the one on my YT page being the WCRG version, but nevertheless I'm all in for giving props to the visual side of OCR too. (Now if only if I can end up at a point where I don't have to revise things so much... xD)

I got your instant message, Dafydd. Will still be working on the bio, though fell sick (again) over the past couple of days, so it didn't get a key priority. Nevertheless I will still do my best to refine it

Got it. There's also some good image support too just in case, so vote added in

PaRappa is already a mascot; try someone else for #2!

No, it's more than just that. Since I'm going into the hospital for a minor operation next week, a competition will just add too much to the strain. There's a time and place for these things, but it's just not now. But like I said, I will still take a look at how it turns out and give my support when needed

It doesn't matter - Sonic Adventure / '06 / Unleashed / Colors had the same irk, and yet their levels are perfectly acceptable. As for looking into this, I don't think it's wise for me to take part, but I can still pimp the hell out of this one on RadioSEGA if this surfaces. Still, why did no one come up with this idea before xD

Doesn't matter if you haven't played some of these; familiarity may be key. Like, I still need to sit down and play through any of the Professor Layton games, but my dad really enjoys the series himself - enough to spark curiosity down the line

*coughSonicChroniclescough* I definitely acknowledged the score pretty well when I got round to checking it out in full. Even went on to remix it on , but that's beside the point.Course, like all people, you all have opinions at the end of the day. Yet, don't feel so worried; the common consensus is that Sonic '06 is one of those games that can be seen as "crappy game with a hot OST". Now, I eventually got to play it myself and it wasn't as stressful as I thought it would be, but still, wild experience was just wild. o_O

I appreciate your pimping for Yume Nikki, but I doubt Larry would take in the image due to it being essentially a stretched sprite. Either way, adding Brush's vote in!
