Marathon Pack

Wavanova · 12-13-2006, 07:34 PM

So since many people seemed interested in it, I've decided to start this Marathon Pack. Here's a few ground rules for it:

1) All songs submitted must be Marathon-length songs (at least 5:00 in length). If they are not marathons, they will be rejected.

2) All songs submitted must not be in any site's (including personal site's) simfile databases. If your file makes it into the pack, you aren't allowed to upload your file into a database for at least 1 month after the pack's release.

3) Try to make a decent banner and background (but mainly banner) for your file. If you can't make one or the one you make is marvellously crappy, I'll make one for you but it may take a while and you may not be happy with what I make. So it's probably best to try making your own AT LEAST subpar banner.

4) Songs should be layed out in this simple format:

TITLE: Fury Of The Storm [Song Name]
SUBTITLE: [Anything you want here really, or nothing at all]
ARTIST: Dragonforce [Creator Of Song, NOT creator of simfile]

As of now, we don't know how many songs will be in this pack. We'll just have submissions stay open until we've decided there's enough in it to release it.

Judges for this pack will be:

Myself
Luc Marceau
Patashu
Nauticus

All submissions are to be submitted to Wavanova@gmail.com. We'll try your file out and give you a response as to whether we'll put it in or not ASAP.

Commence your submissions and flaming of this pack.

OMG is the new way of typing LOL

OMG I was going to do a Marathon song but I don't know how to find BPM Changes in a song But I can find the BPM

**TheRapingDragon** · 12-13-2006, 09:35 PM

Someone step "I" by Meshuggah.

It's only 235bpm death metal for 21 minutes with lots of changes (not bpm, I mean musical changes) that would make for an interesting yet very painful file.

Wavanova · 12-13-2006, 09:36 PM

kfineillmakeit >_>

you're sure there's no BPM changes in it >_>?

**TheRapingDragon** · 12-13-2006, 09:41 PM

Tibs checked it out, I forget what he said the exact bpm was, but it was around that.

The only problem he said was that it wasn't in a 4/4 time signature.

Wavanova · 12-13-2006, 09:51 PM

i hate doing songs in non 4/4 timing >_>

plus "I" would prolly be way too repetitive. Maybe I'll still just do Change Of Seasons instead....or I could do The Odyssey by Symphony X...that'd make a good file.

Wavanova · 12-14-2006, 06:24 AM

yeah i know, that's what originally taught me my hate for stepping files like dream theater, even though they're fun when they're finished.

.mp3 please?

I was probably going to step Octavarium or a random spor song but if this is good...

**MixMasterLar** · 12-14-2006, 02:39 PM

I will be stepping Fasination MaxX Cally and Juice's Overdrive Mix as soon as I get the bpm.

Ive asked Kevin_18 if he knew but I havent heard from him. If any one knows the please tell me

DDRBaller123 · 12-14-2006, 03:40 PM

The song has BPM changes in it. so it woulden be one constant BPM

xXTranceXx · 12-14-2006, 04:34 PM

Is 4:51 ok for a marathon??! I know the minimum lenght is 5:00 but I already started a good file that I'd like to send to the pack......

**MixMasterLar** · 12-14-2006, 04:57 PM

The thing about 4:51 is that SM wont call it "Marathon" unless it's 5:00+. It kinda sucks cuz I have alot of songs that are like 4:36 and such, but if Wava says OK then do it, I mean it's like 9 sec. short for pete's sake.

No, minimum length is 5 minutes, sorry, it would be rejected.

All due respect (and I do think you are intitled to it) we should ask Wava first, but yeah Im thinking it is too short, I mean if we say some songs that aint marked "M" were OK then we would have alot of people with 3-5 min. songs show up.

PS someone with a BPM scanne please help with FMCJ Mix.

xXTranceXx · 12-14-2006, 06:54 PM

Well if it's the M that matters I could just add 5 seconds at the start and 4 at the end and it would be considered a marathon....

Wava was going to have it at 7 minutes minimum, you have me to thank for it being down at 5 minutes, so if I say no to the 4:51 song, you can bet that Wava will definately say no.

Also, Patashu - Sent you that Meshuggah song.

I concur >_>

And I suppose you could add an extra 9 seconds of nothingness to it, but I'm going to know about it and reject it now unless it's one of the most splendiferous simfiles I've ever played >_>
