No. But taking somebody else's work, claiming it's your own, and selling it is. My objections stem not from the fact that he drew from other sources, but that he did not ask permission, offer compensation, or even give credit to said source. That comment was intended as (slight) hyperbole, but I guess that doesn't come accross all that clearly on the internet.

Not true. When you create something, you automatically hold the copyright until you release the rights to somebody else. The MJ/Sonic 3 thing was a bunch of loose connections. This is, pure and simple, the same song. They weren't even subtle about it. Doesn't mean the son of a bitch doesn't deserve to have his ass force-fed to him. I'm not even going to take the time to respond to this. ANY asshole who pulls shit like this deserves to get shot. Timbaland is no exception. Just because there are others doesn't make it any less heinous when he does it. All of which is completely irrelevant.

Ah, finally a decent pic of the moogle chick.

Ok, I'm good to go. If anybody wants their ass handed to them, gimme a holler.

Do you have a picture from behind?

Ok, finally finished the game. And honestly, I think it tops Ocarina of Time and Link to the Past as the best Zelda game to date. Both from a gaming perspective and from a cinematic/storytelling perspective, it was brilliantly executed.

Speaking of which, anybody have pics of the moogle chick? You know the one I'm talking about.

Hoshit count me in.

Ok, I'm in the sky palace and I'm completely stumped. I have no idea where to go. I got the boss key, but can't figure out where to go now. It would appear that there is a switch in the central room that I need to hit (I'm guessing it will get the fans outside the northern door to spin, which should enable me to get to the northern tower, where the boss appears to be). Anyway, I'm finally breaking down and accepting hints on how to get this switch.

No, there's such a thing as two-player timetrial -- and the mechanics are different enough from 1p time trial that the differences in scores are HUGE.

We'll definitely miss you Darke. I hope you'll still be around in the community, and still be making awesome muzix.

Just ordered a SNES to USB adapter from ebay. Count me in, assuming it gets here. Also, Siamey damn well better participate in this. It would be nice if Bahamut would as well. Are we doing Vs or Time Trial? I think it would be cool to do tournaments for both.

If you can give me instructions on how to hook a SNES control up to my comp, I'll do it. I imagine some manner of USB device must exist that would do it, but I don't know what that would be or where to get it.

There was a remix in the gamecube version? I don't remember that. Anyway, yes, the title theme from Waverace is definitely one of my favorite tunes.

Whoah, I didn't even know they were back together. AWESOME! I love Evanescence.

Percussion is a rather annoying loop, not enough variation. Lead tone is too similar to rythm tone; make them stand out more, either by using a more cutting tone on the lead, a less present tone on the rythm, or by simply making the leads louder. Or better yet, some combination of the three. The actual performance, though, is excellent. Great writing and execution on the solos. I love the lead work, and I wish I could hear it better.

There will be more to come, I assure you.

Whatever the case, it was a very memorable moment. By far the best part though was how they were chillin' at the bar together the following night.

Absolutely. What was best was when they first shook hands. Jake walked into the room without knowing dave was there, Dave didn't realize jake had walked in, but EVERYBODY else knew. The room went briefly silent, then immediately there was a buzz of murmering and whispering from everybody in the room. We even sent Jill to the other side of the room so she could take a picture that might include both of them. It ended up being unnecessary; the two eventually shook hands, and immediately the room erupted in applause. We'll post pics. As far as I can tell, their feud appears to be over. Huzzah!

OMGOMGOMGOMG The prophet is going to ride in my car. OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG ... Anyway, we're leaving. Last post before MAG, w00t!

Holy fucking shit. The boss of the snowy mountain mansion... that has got to be the coolest fucking boss entrance ever.

Just find one of us and we can introduce you to the others.

Very nice.

I wouldn't mind a new sig. Something to do with guitars (preferably acoustic). If it could somehow be given a celtic feel that would be cool, though it's not absolutely necessary, and I don't know how you'd accomplish that visually. It's a minor thing, so if you don't have any immediate ideas for how to do it, don't worry about it. No text other than "Geoffrey Taucer." Font should be relatively plain.

omgomgomgomgomg. Brad comes over the day after tomorrow. We leave for MAG the next morning omgomgomgomgomg
