Same here! Especially glad to finally have something in my region to go to! haha

In case you've been hiding under a rock/in a basement/in a dark corner of the forums and missed the initial announcement in April, MAGFest is taking artist applications for MAG 12 (this coming January). This includes VGM bands, DJs, *AND* chipartists (moar of the latter pls, kthxbai). You've only got until the end of August 31 to get them in, though, so #DONTF*CKAROUND, k? K.

Peace & \m|<3|m/ & shit,

"I guess what I'm really trying to say here is if you dig it, awesome! If not, -shrugs- go elsewhere." <-- THERE IS NO MALICE WHATSOEVER in that statement. Just a straightforward explanation of my thoughts on the matter.

Felt the need to include this little addendum in an attempt to prevent misunderstandings. Not that those ever happen on forums, of course... ;3

good to hear you guys are pushing out some more music, looking forward to it!

but while you're here, may i make a suggestion to tone down the heavy-handed exclamations, asterisks, shouting, tired memephrases, bluster and general noise?  i'm sorry but every time i read anything promoted by you, good lord, it's like i want to dive headfirst into a wall of nails.  i can't be the only one who feels this way.

it's a shame because the compilations are otherwise pretty good (it's shocking how many people were involved) and deserve more attention, but that potential is sabotaged by the immature presentation in my opinion.

i'm not saying to rid your language of the passion that you clearly have (which is great) but as a favour to the general public, try cutting down on the gimmicky brotalk at least a LITTLE bit, come on!

i love the enthusiasm and the comp has a ton of incredible songs from a lot of good friends. i love that you guys are doing cool stuff and doing it positively.

the emoticons / caps / ascii stuff is a marketing choice and it obviously works well to get certain people excited. if i'm being honest, it has the opposite effect on me.

that being said, i wouldn't say you should stop it necessarily. just understand the cost / benefit.

I am *completely* aware of the cost/benefit. smile But I'd say it's working quite wonderfully, both for myself and - more importantly! - others, so I'm sticking with it. The fact that it's *INCREDIBLE FUN* doesn't hurt either. wink There are other more straightforward, traditional groups, means, methods, associations, etc. to utilize for people who aren't interested in my particular type of madness. And they are *SO* welcome to use them instead of ChipWIN if they so desire!

I guess what I'm really trying to say here is if you dig it, awesome! If not, -shrugs- go elsewhere. Because as much as I appreciate the opinions & thoughts on the matter, nothing is changing. And that's really all there is to it. smile

Peace~
