Show some respect. This is the guy who essentially invented Gameboy backlighting in 2005 using kitchen aluminum foil and plastic from a CD case. Before we all got used to using premade backlight panels.

Wait, does CM.O even have an official logo to put on a shirt?

I have 2 Bleepbloop Non-USB cartridge and a Smartboy Programmer. One of the Bleepbloops has a bad temper and can corrupt the data on the cartridge when trying to rip the .sav from the cart. Writing .sav's to the cartridges seems to be fine tho. Fortunately, I have an Mega Memory Card and it helps to keep .sav's from being totally lost.

its great that you think we even have the ablity to force people to make music the way we'd prefer, but lets be fair: someone not being interested in/being dismissive of work they arent interested in hearing is in no way forcing anyone to do anything... my music has never been very popular within this scene, and ive taken some shit for it off people, but since its the music i want to make i dont let their difference in taste/opinion effect my writing...the difference seems to be (as pointed out earlier) that at some point the scene transitioned from people coming in expecting little to no attention for their work (hell even 8bc had fewer than 600 members in 2007, including inactive accounts, so who was listening) to people who enter with somewhat inflated expectations based on having seen what this scene can be at its largest and grandest scale... sometimes this results in people feeling excluded and like some mysterious "elite" part of the scene is holding them back...

I had that happen to me. I got LSDJ and thought to myself, "I'm gonna be somebody with this silly artifact." Slowly I realized that wasn't the case. However, I did not just up and quit or complain about people not liking my stuff...hell, I barely record the stuff I write. Because I respect chip music so much I want to release music that lives up to the respect I have for it. Unfortunately, I don't think anything I've written since I started back in 2008 is worthy of that goal.
