The new Bi-Weekly thread and comp will be up at midnight (gotta watch some of my friends graduate so they won't be up until tonight.

I think I'm going to extend the entry period to 10 days with 4 days for voting.

I'll be trying something new for this first competition that I'll implementing here and there in the future.

2:49:01 pm    Kommisar:    so pu2 channel can be anything right?
4:36:07 pm    Roboctopus:    I think pu2 can be anything
4:36:16 pm    Roboctopus:    as long as it's not adultery

Oh lordy I lol'd

You hands down write the most unique chip I've ever laid ears on. Your blending of styles and the sheer emotional power in all of your songs should be recognized and praised by all. It's all so musically inspiring it's almost painful.

I think the anon thing should continue...I'll figure out some new rules or something.

Same here, I got tons of them! Lol. And damn 2PLAYER....31 Stars...that's not even human. It's just going to be months and months of 2PLAYER's themes. Ha ha ha.


I'm not sure if that is sarcasm since I couldn't even begin to understand why one would not support 2PLAYER coming up with all the themes.
I mean...
Isn't that better than random?




...Random implies possibility of failure...

I think maybe the biggest problem is the "script" part. In my experience, most people don't even know how to run a script... some kind of GUI application or web page is usually more appreciated.

I'm glad someone pointed this out.  Many people would be ALL OVER this system, but would not be able to use it including myself.

This is a fantastic Idea and I'll help spread the word whenever i can.

If you do not see your name and medium listed in "THE REGULARS" and you have entered the competition in the past as well as plan to continue entering please PM me with the medium you most use when writing chipmusic.

Thanks.

Having the winner create the next theme is such a cool idea! If this is how it'll work we should all submit 1 theme to 8BitRex so when the winner is announced the next comp can go live immediately after.

Or I can come up with like...5 or so themes...list them...and the winner gets to pick.  Either way I'm happy to do.

I say two threads.  The weekly and bi-weekly seem like totally different ideas to me.  One is a thematic challenge and one is a technical one.

Perfect reasoning is perfect...I'm sold

I'll PM arlen and have him change around the original post and name as to prevent confusion.

Alright looks like I'm taking command! 

I'll DEFINITELY Implement the "winners makes next theme" idea...it's straight up slammin'

Now...which do you think I should choose (since I dont have the ability to edit the original post of this thread):

- Make my weekly the "weekly and Bi-weekly" thread
- Bother a mod to allow me to edit the original post (i don't even know if thats possible)
- Close this thread, have it deleted, whatever gets the job done and create a new thread.

I'd honestly rather have two separate threads....so I'm leaning away from the first option.

Thoughts?

Woooot! My GF is as well.  I'll definitely keep that in mind!
