Z-I-v Summer Contest 2013

It won't be work for individual packs next week though, right? I'll maybe start compiling next week's if we end up with as many entries, 'cause it's a pain trying to stay on top of all the uploads.

Good point

also, it's now time.






64 files... Jesus.

Was the deadline when you posted Time Up or 1PM EST like it says on the first post? Cause I just now was able to add mine.

Beat # No. 4 / HEaDTriP

Man, everything was trying to keep me from participating this week...

btw, a heads up, mind your romanization (keep them ASCII only) and put that as the song title when you are submitting the file
(so it'll be [Moon Runes] - <romanized song title>).

ZIv won't generate you a ZIP if you have unicode there (as well as characters invalid for file names).

THANK YOU

---

The deadline was 30 minutes before I posted.

---

So the deadline each week is actually 12 Noon EST, not 1PM (or 4PM UTC). Got it.

I'm gonna put in my two cents.

[HSD] I highly dislike this rule. What if you wanted to try a new style of stepping/genre of music, but were afraid it wouldn't get any votes? So you just go right back to what you're good at. This doesn't just discourage experimentation, it leaves no room for it unless you want to risk not getting any votes at all. And who wants to waste a whole week of the contest? [/HSD]

But whatever, [joke]I guess this means eurobeat 8-footers every week from me then[/joke]

---

Deal with it

---

Is It Necessary to submit BEMANI stuffs file and Half Runes Title File (for example, 灼熱Beach Side Bunny)?

---

There should be absolutely no Latin characters. So... nop

---

Well, that's one way of seeing things. Mine would be try to see if something different would get attention, and, if not, try again next week. Not just counting points/votes.
Whatsmore, chances of getting any kind of feedback is hard with 60+ files. I'd gladly review 20 files, but not 60

I agree with blinded strongly on that point. Along with that a lot of people tend to just not participate after the first two-three weeks. The hype dies down after some time and even if we get a plethora of files, like how we had 64 this week, you can just play them along as people post them as I did so I wouldn't have to continuously play the files for over an hour. We have a whole week for voting so it shouldn't be that hard to take an hour or two of your time to play the songs honestly.

Great, now I'm going to have to download fonts can handle Armenian. Damn you, Silver.

Here's my point of view, after looking through Blinded's comment, I do really see his point. With three simfiles, one is able to submit one extremely competitive simfile and two experimental. With that, he or she is able to expand their comfort zone. (Which is why I loved the Simfile Shuffle so much and WANT THAT CONTEST BACK.) But the only problem, as explained many times before, is the overload of simfiles because of it.

Sixty five simfiles? (Aeron posted his file last minute. Literally) Ugh.

Here's my idea, so we can compromise.

MAXIMUM TWO SIMFILES: With that, you can make a file that you believe you can win with, and make an experimental file to see if you get positive criticism from it. Plus, the number of files won't be SO bad.

---

I second that Ryan, two is enough for me too. JUST. NOT. FREAKIN' ONE.

---

The download pack should be up but let me know if it's screwed up because my computer is acting up today.

---

Me also, I can probably just live with just two.

---

I know it's been a while that i didn't posted and i probably won't make a file (even if i finished a DX 11 few days ago) but...
WHAT IS MOON RUNES O_o

Week theme could be : "Rock'n Pasta" that it will make as much sence for me or maybe i'm dumb. Which is possible too.

@Telperion : Crazy google drive sheet on page 2.

Also 64 files... i remember a week when i did review 40+... holy...

yea two's all I need too
