Damashii!! Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Two questions. the first one might be rhetorical and a waste of space, but maybe one of you will have an awesome answer for it: 1) When BP had that horrible spill a while back, was it just oil that leaked or was hatorade seeping out, too? It seems like it's been leaking around here a bunch, particularly on the Remix Review Threads... 2) How many times can we re-edit a mix that has been "Yes'd" but hasn't officially been posted yet? And do we have to wait the 3-week interval before re-submitting the mix and submitting another, unrelated mix, or does that re-sub (with the fixes) count as one of the standard submissions? (I'm talking about #2 in Section 7 over here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonAvenger Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 2) How many times can we re-edit a mix that has been "Yes'd" but hasn't officially been posted yet?

(I'm talking about #2 in Section 7 over here) Depends on the type of edit we're talking about. If it's a little thing here and there that isn't changing anything drastically, we'd probably be inclined to take it, but we'd rather that the track be finished when you send it in. Anything that's more than a minor change isn't gonna work for us, because it would have to be re-judged. Feel free to ask us on a specific track if you really want to do a change, if nothing else we say NO (see what I did there?). Resubs are exempt from the 3-week rule, albeit I know I'd be personally less inclined to vote on your stuff if you submit 5 resubs and a new mix at once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Strader Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 I made a tiny fix to a song of mine, fixed the release on mellotron pad for String chamellotron and sent Enumerator a wav... dunno if you guys have that version or the one right before it without the fixed string release. It's good to hear you'll accept little thangs like that. I fixed it cause larry was all like about them and larry is my best friend ever Only my best friends ever have the power to influence that kind of change in a string pad release time!

DarkeSword Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Don't sent Emunator a wave file, he isn't a judge. If you want to send in a correction, contact a member of the judges panel. Don't send a wave file either, send an MP3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Strader Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 I sent him the wav because he was collecting the MMX Project WAVs at the time, I suppose I could send a new mp3 -- wouldn't they post the album version of the song anyway?

DarkeSword Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Not necessarily! Sometimes a mix gets subbed at a lower bitrate to fit into OCR's filesize guidelines, whereas album encodes are possibly higher. If you specify that you want the album version used, then we can make the mp3 ourselves and use that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 I'm just going to clarify/back up what the other Js said. Jordanius: Seems like you want to revise Gitaroo Man... again? If the changes aren't drastic, we don't need to revote. If they are a major overhaul, like your past major overhaul, we'd need to revote. At some point, I'd call it a wrap if I were you, BUT it's your arrangement, so if you need to do some more to get it where you need it, that's fine, just keep us in the loop by mailing the judges about how it's going. Just reply to our previous conversation from the judges mailbox and I'll see it. Strader: We generally post the album versions of mixes, so as long as your lossless version reached the project people, we'll also get it. Also, though we prefer MP3 submissions, I have no problem encoding other people's WAVs if they need a higher bitrate but don't know the ins-and-outs of how to encode. If needed, they can always talk to me about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Strader Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Thank you fellers, you could use the album version once that comes out if it would be easier... If it wouldn't be easier I can cook up an mp3 for ya. On a related note, I have that ff9 conditional track, and I've sent the fix a couple times to a couple different people, but I never actually was told what the conditional conditions were (Fishy mentioned there was a skip which I fixed) but apart from that I didn't know.... was the fix not accepted, did it not address the problems? I should send a new mp3 to someone? Or just say to use the album version again, haha? 'Cause Fishy has the fixed WAV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damashii!! Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 (edited) EDIT: nevermind. the gitaroo remix is fine, i'd just be adding parsley to a pb&j sandwich if I edited it anymore. thanks and sorry for the inconvenience. =/ Depends on the type of edit we're talking about.

Just reply to our previous conversation from the judges mailbox and I'll see it. yessir, but definitely not a massive overhaul this time. I just want to add brass chords to the very, very end. Do I need to redo the submission form and userID and all that stuff, or just notify a judge and email the new edit? Edited August 18, 2011 by Damashii!!

SonicThHedgog Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Can mixes be to short? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 Can mixes be to short? If you don't have a fully developed idea, then it's too short. We ask for around at least 2 minutes, though that's not a hard time requirement. It can be shorter if the idea is fully developed (e.g. DOESN'T LOOP).

DjMystix Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Have a question that might've been asked before but I'm too lazy to search (so sorry for that): How do you guys come up with the schedule of which yes'ed mix to post? It doesn't look like chronological to when the mix was accepted, is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 djp posts them in whatever order he feels suitable. He usually tries to mix it up so there's a variety of games an styles, rather then chronologically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 That said, posting order is mostly chronological. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirby Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 That makes sense to me. Now if ya'll take any longer on posting that Boktai mix, you might as well wait until my birthday. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackPanther Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 (edited) I had a question about my Legend of Dragoon remix, what happened to it lol? It's been in the queue since June of last year, granted, OA offered to tweak it a bit and I agreed but then decided to let it go through the panel but now I don't see it anywhere on the list and I've searched the forum for a thread if it's been judged already but I haven't gotten anything O_o. Also: What are the guidelines to submitting a song from an album? Edited September 12, 2011 by BlackPanther Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Looks like it's all OA's fault. Can't see no fix in the thread. I can send him an angry letter or a horse's head if you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol if I didn't like Andrew, maybe I would take you up on that offer. But yeah, Deia gave me the scoop, thanks guys. I'm assuming when I sub a song I just put somewhere in the message that the remix I'm submitting is part of an album? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
