Liontamer Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Hey, everyone, we're participating in an official Reddit AMA on Tue., Feb. 23rd in celebration of Fair Use Week! We hope you'll join djpretzel, myself, and the legal eagles from intellectual property & open Internet non-profit Public Knowledge for the AMA! Feel free to check out our 2013 self-AMA if you're already in the AMA mood, and we hope to field more questions later this month. It starts at 12PM Eastern US time, and goes until we're done answering every question. I'll keep checking back every few hours for a few days, so you're not too later if you ask a Q a little later in the day or week as well! ASK US ANYTHING about VGM, copyright issues with arranging game music and putting it out for free, how OCR is run, what you want to see or improve with the site, and any other important questions you have! djpretzel, Eino Keskitalo and Chernabogue 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 First question: "Why didn't you accept my remix?" But this is a good thing. Reddit, for all the bad stuff it gets, is full of all kinds of people with similar interests. This will be good for exposure and publicity.

Brandon Strader Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 How much do AMAs pay? Is it gonna be an AMA or an AMAA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 $0. AMA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Strader Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I like that. Whenever you see someone doing an AMAA it's like why even bother. Glad you got the stones to answer everything. Tho not sure what people would ask that you'd not want to answer anyway, haha. How is it unpaid, doesn't Reddit know you guys are as notable as other celebrities?

Brandon Strader Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I probably should have asked this sooner instead of being goofy, but are remixers allowed to answer/field questions during AMA? Or only official OCR responses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Plants? Nah, fuck that. Animals are better. I noticed on the AMA calendar that it's listed, so I guess it's official? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Damned Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 So far, I have been proven wrong about "why didn't you post my remix?" questions. This is the sort of wrong that is acceptable. djpretzel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Strader Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I went through the entire AMA just now.. made some "witty" responses and some serious answers. The answers about the panel were interesting. Excited to see the judge gains of 2016. And yeah, you guys know I've wanted to help for years. The offer's still there, and though I can't really assume or speak for anyone, I think in general people might be a lot less likely to drive me out of town on a stick than they used to be in the past. Although (and I mean no offense at all) the dire situation of the inbox right now makes it seem like I would be a lot less effective than I would have been say 3 years ago. There's so much more work to go through now, both what is there, and what is coming in. It seems like you guys need a LOT of judges if you're really getting 1,000 submissions a year. That's not going to be something a few people could handle. I'm kinda expecting or maybe I should say hoping to see a team of like 50 judges maybe more.

jnWake Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 1,000 submissions a year? That's like 3 per day haha. Considering you need at least 3 votes to reject a song and 4 to pass, you'd need a pretty big team of active people to keep up! If Brandon's reviewing rate is similar to his writing rate he could get rid of all the backlog in like a week haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chernabogue Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I finished reading all those posts during my lunch break. That was very interesting, both for the IP aspect and the OCR behind-the-scenes stuff. djpretzel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
