Everyone should write epic songs.  If we get enough entries...I'm compiling them into an album for sure.

Make that shit INCREDIBLE!

Noted. Thanks for the heads up.

Alright cool thanks! I'll definitely keep that stuff in mind.

In regards to the current header...I love this shit out of it BUT I was also torn between the current one and a pixelated one I made.  Considering the thing is about chipmusic I'll probably throw the latter up instead.

As for the link animations...how would you feel about them staying, but having the link destinations always displayed?

And yeah the share buttons were pissing me off too...I'll most likely just get rid of them.

I just wanted some feedback on the layout of the blog.  I think it looks great, but this is my first blog and for all I know there could be some pitfalls in my design or whatever that im not aware of.

There's nothing posted besides an intro, but I do have many things lined up.

I went into the creation process without knowing ANY html so actually getting it to look the way it does was a feat in itself.  I created all the images as well which is also my first real step into pixel art.

Lemme know what you think and thanks!

EDIT:  I wrote my first piece which shows the direction I want my blog to take.  I would really love some feedback on it since I will be continuing to post regulatory with content similar to what has just been posted today.  Thanks guys!

Yeah. I'll most likely remove the anon rule for the rest of the competitions (sorry Nestrogen) since there really isnt any way around it.  However...listening to others' songs before the listening party will still be forbidden under penalty of bad stuff.

Tweak it.

After this week I'm switching the timing so for this comp we have two weekends to write, that is, Friday - following Monday.

And welcome back Nestrogen! Help me take down 2PLAYER.

(PS: if anyone DOESN'T vote for 2PLAYER for the sole reason of knocking him out of the lead I'm going to be super pissed and I have a thousands weapons to harm you with.)

Damn...I listened to this all the way through.  More need to download this.  It is very, very good.  Those melodies......THOSE MELODIES!
If you're a fan of Trey Frey there's no way you WON'T like this.

Thanketh you.

Dearest 2PLAYER,

After this competition, thine reign of tyranny and terror shalt be at an end.
Enjoy thine last remaining breaths as the Bi-Weekly champion, fere...
For a straight bangin-eth track hast I wrought, and thou shalt kneel before me you mother fucker.

WOW! really rad!
I remember playing the world's largest pinball machine (Hercules) and it was ridiculous...The game lasted FOREVER since it's 18 feet long and the ball basically crawled everywhere. It was still a blast to play though haha.

So crisp...
And the Woman talking is a fun touch...loved it.

I recommend.


I second that.  There's a thread around here somewhere that displays a lot of his commissions.  They are damn good.
