Re: R^n: Shifting Paradigms

If the judgement made on ap's ban holds out, don't lose focus on what's been set here. Sure, it won't be R^n, but the message remains: do more original stuff.

If there's an upside to any of this, it's that the major packs are basically over. The rate of single simfile submissions should go back to about what it was just before the production of F4.

Re: R^n: Shifting Paradigms

If the cancellation of the pack is set in stone, I hope to see cool single simfile submissions. =)
Although it still is sort of a letdown...

There's still VGMP...

Yes, but submissions to that are coming to a close. If you haven't submitted to it by now, you're probably not going to, anyway.

[17:52:34] <aperson> Tell everyone r^n is cancelled
[17:52:38] <aperson> I'm too lazy to mirror it to my site
[17:52:42] <aperson> so I'm not going to bother

I knew it.

It's only because he's banned for a year

The two-day ban on AP for calling Jurs a bitch was the requisite "hey, you're acting up, stop it" slap on the wrist.

It wasn't a year ban, it was a two day ban.

Re: R^n: Shifting Paradigms

It wasn't a year ban, it was a two day ban.

He was banned for two days before for calling Jurs a bitch multiple times. Then, he posted another thread about her as soon as he was unbanned, and now he's banned for a year. At least, that's how I understand it.

Re: R^n: Shifting Paradigms

after playing vunderbar, im pretty pissed off how this pack is just gonna not be continued with aperson leading it...there was just so much potential.



ps:

It wasn't a year ban, it was a two day ban.

you're retarded.

Re: R^n: Shifting Paradigms

I think most of you guys are entirely missing aperson's point as what he wishes to see being in this pack. It's nothing personal against any creator, it's just a statement that the average file is a steady 16th stream (ala quasar, OML, etc.). I don't see any creativity in keyboard files. I can't make them, but I don't think the average simfile creator can, either. A file can be solid and follow the music, but still may not be fun. Stepmania shouldn't be about hitting one big 16th stream, (IMHO) it should be moreso about a creative interpretation of music translated into a 4-arrow format. This is difficult, if not near impossible [Capturing the essence of a musical piece in 4 arrows]. I'm not even going to start about the limits of complexity regarding SM, but it is an issue when trying to do something truly original and sophisticated. My 2 cents.

Come on IRC and convince him to continue it.
