>>723006097You can time lyrics to help out now! There's no dedicated sheet slot yet, but you can put them near the end of the Finished tab like pic relatedOptions: 1. MusicBee2. LRC generator onlineBoth have their pros and cons. I'll explain very briefly how to use an LRC generator online. The one I used was https://www.lrcgenerator.com/For this particular one, you paste the lyrics into the text area then click 'Synchronize to music'.You will be taken to a new page, in here you can load your audio track using the Audio button, and start the playback with the START button.In order to mark which line is being sang, you need to click on the 'Next Line' button as the line starts being sung (click upon hearing something, not in anticipation for consistency with others), the lyric in the text area will be highlighted white letting you know the line was tagged.You do this for the entire song then you wait it to end. I don't know if it was a bug that specifically happened for me or not, but the only way I could tell the song ended was because the timer on the now pause button stopped counting up.From here, you should have reached the end of the lyrics you posted. You need to click 'Next Line' one more time and the button should now be replaced with a 'Get File' button which will download the .lrc file to your PC.Now, I just extract the content by opening the .lrc file with a text editor (I use VSCode) and take only the timed lyric lines alongside timestamps and paste them into a new .txt(TLDR you put the song audio file and lyric text into the lrcgenerator.com website, it plays the song and you click once as each line begins, then you put the timed lyrics text it give you into a .txt file and that can be uploaded for the thread and sheet)
>>723006330I use https://www.lrcgenerator.com/ because it's literally just listening to the song and clicking once per line unless you wanna get fancier with my tips below.If anyone else wants to do it, look at pic rel/the rentry uploads for an example of how the text should look when copy-pasted from the site . My tips from last year:1. Add an extra [00:00.00] timing to the start of the text, it makes the start of the song clean. Like pic rel.2. Delete the website's advertising bit at the end, it breaks nothing to do so.3. Personally I click as soon as I hear the line start to be sung. Like, I click as a reaction to the first syllable, ideally before the singer even gets to the 2nd one. There's wiggle room there because god knows nobody is expecting perfection, but if everyone does it this way it's simpler and the albums will be consistent.4. As you're sitting there listening and clicking anyway, read the lyrics. If the singer changed something, it's helpful to fix that after you're done timing just by corrected it to what they actually said. For example using the Grips of an Angel song, 1 singer changed the lyrics on a couple lines and the other added a skit, so they can't share the same lyric text and they should be adjusted accordingly even if they're timed the same.5. If you screw up the timing on a line and don't want to redo the whole song, just focus and do the rest right, then you can manually adjust the timing of that line in the text after. Musicbee lets you do this within the program while listening and you can instantly see how the new timing looks.If you want to help out on timing lyrics and need more info just reply to me and let me know, there's no stupid questions with it. I can check your work if you want as well, I would just need the lyrics link and the original song file and both should be on the sheet by time you've got something.
>>723006097NEW ANCHORReply to this post with only newly written songs/vocals/art/what-have-you.
>>723006097moot is THICC
We are going to need more people mixing songs so we can work through all the submitted vocals in time for the deadline, so I've prepared a resource of torrents for plugins you can use to help you get started with mixing your vocals and stuff later on, I pulled all of them from RuTracker: https://files.catbox.moe/7lhn47.zipIt includes a mixing template for REAPER and a short guide for some of the plugins, and a short guide on how to use some features of REAPER.Use Qbittorrent to get the torrents to download. Torrents are basically download links, so just having the "torrent file" won't give you the plugins.For audio software, I recommend REAPER. It's not as easy as Audacity, but once you learn it you'll be able to do whatever you need: https://www.reaper.fm/download.phpRecommend looking up some guides for getting started with mixing, but worst case you can ask in the thread.In case you have a powerful enough PC, this is what you can use to remove vocals from songs you've downloaded: https://github.com/Anjok07/ultimatevocalremovergui <--- USE THIS FOR INSTRUMENTALSIn case you need high quality files for songs you like, the best bet is to find them using Soulseek: https://www.slsknet.org/news/node/1And finally, in case your music only exists in the form of a Youtube video, here is YT-DLP. It's CLI, but it works well enough if you remember to use "yt-dlp -x ": https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlpYT-DLP has a few GUI implementations, such as TarTube: https://tartube.sourceforge.io/
>>723006097SHILLING ANCHORGot something that is unfinished and needs to be shilled? Here's a place to link it. include info on if it already has any work done, and what is needed to finish it.
/v/ The Musisical
>>723006097>>723007236HELP WANTED ANCHORNeed an extra hand with a song that’s half finished? Post what you have and how many vocals you still need!Don’t spam this anchor with edit requests, be a man and reply seperately with “edit my song you fucks”
what's the actual difference between a shilling anchor and a help wanted anchor? it seems like they do the exact same thing
>>723006758Finished Sloptendo but let me know if I should tweak anythinghttps://krakenfiles.com/view/wcikEQeWwg/file.html
>>723006330is it possible to bring that column more towards the middle? maybe next to the lyrics one? or would that fuck the formatting too much? i ask because it's so far to the right most anons won't even notice it. if it's more in the middle of the sheet maybe people will see and be more compelled to do it themselves if they want
>>723007858The way I see it shill = plz sing my songHelp wanted = plz fill in backing vocals/edit my half-done songDepends on the amount of dedication needed to finish the song
>>723008150We'd need someone that's actually comfortable with rearranging the whole sheet and adding a column in there, it's so far to the right because that's the only place it's not in the way unless it gets a dedicated column. we don't need people to notice it on the sheet right now, the point of adding them is just so there's a place to store them as they're made for now. the kind of person willing to put time into helping should easily be noticing these posts in the thread to become aware, it's why that's the first reply here.
>>723008545some chad is doing that right now. bless them
>>723008640looks good, if anyone wants to help out it's easy to get started, as long as the song is truly finished (aka lyrics and timings aren't gonna be fucked with later) then it's good to go to get lyric timings done.
It's over...nowhere quiet to record until Monday...
>>723009960so do it on monday. you have until wednesday the 15th to submit songs.
>>723010020Okay
Still working on this, mostly just need to add representations for all the devs EA's killed over the years along with more Saudi blood money. I've got Pandemic, Visceral, Bullfrog, Maxis, Westwood and BioWare on my list so far, but if anyone has other suggestions throw them at me.
>>723006097dman moot looks like THAT
HOLY SHITTIN' SATURDAY ANON. IT'S THE FINAL FUCKING WEEKEND OF THE FUCKING MUSICAL DAMMIT! THAT MEANS IT'S ALMOST OVER, BUT DO NOT THREAT. THERE IS MUCH TO BE DONE.TELL ME... WHAT ARE YAWRITAN?SINGAN?EDITAN?ARTAN?VIDEOFAGGAN FOR SONGS BOTH OLD AND NEW?WE ALWAYS GET SOME BIG WORK DONE IN THE LAST PORTION OF THE MUSICAL SO GIVE ME YOUR BEST SHOT! AND ALWASY REMEMBERI BELIEVE IN YOU!
>>723010127criterion? they're not defunct but I don't think they're better off for being part of EA innit.
>>723010783RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>723007684Need the female parts for Diversification. Obviously doesnt have to be a womanAlso need backings for Wokes go to Gamedev!
>>723006330>>723006585I made a video guide too, to really make sure nobody is scared off and thinks they can't handle something this simple. 2 minute video, covers every step of the process of using https://www.lrcgenerator.com/https://files.catbox.moe/ztv61b.mp4
>>723007684Need backing vocals for 80 Bucks Give No Fucks

>>723007236Any anons that can sing country? I put an Alabama song on the sheet.
>>723007236Sing Xbox is Dead, it's a slow, easy song and you just need to sing it like you're tired and then editing will do the rest pretty much
>>723011827>and then editing will do the rest
>>723012006anon i can edit it
>>723012053prove it, edit some shit on the long sheet of stuff waiting for it instead of shilling for another on the pile. the biggest thing holding back singers this year is the fear editors aren't going to give their songs time.
>>723012167I edited A Road to Drive earlier and Why I Stopped Playing Vidya a week or two back. Though I was planning on doing Chan Ban next unless someone's already doing it.
I SPIT ON SINGERS THAT DONT MIX THEIR STUFFPTOOPTOO
>>723012639I’m mixing! I’m mixing!
>>723012639Oh yeah? I spit on writefags that don't sing their stuff PTOOPTOO(i'm spitting on myself)
>>723012639Renaissancefags need to die. Current "/v/" the musical is a bunch of resetera tourists writing, singing and editing their own shit, lmao. Hope the jannies give you the well deserved rope again.
I SPIT ON SINGERS THAT MIX THEIR OWN STUFF, BUT ONLY UPLOAD THE FINAL MIX AND NOT THE RAW VOCALS JUST IN CASE SOMEONE ELSE WANTS TO TRY DOING IT BETTERPTOOPTOO
>>723012859I SPIT ON YOU SPECIFICALLY PTOOPTOO
>>723012774NO YOU AIN'T
>>723012859So we should be asking other people to help? I guess I could lyricspost and ask if anyone wants to try
Dedicated edit fags don’t exist. There are only singers and writers
Vocalsbegging needs to die. Current "/v/" the musical is a bunch of resetera tourists writing but not editing or singing their own shit, lmao. Hope the jannies give you the well deserved rope again.
>>723013365t.never made a song
>>723007236If anyone is interested and willing, "Playing With a Box" could use vocals. Infor for it is in the spreadsheet. Here's the original for reference.https://youtu.be/_7iFGOtWrjs?si=njWziCKatTbuuDGM
>>723013398Songbegging needs to die. Current /v/ the musical is a bunch of Resetera tourists not writi
If I wasn’t already wanting to shoot myself editing a pop song I’d sing Frog Fraction gomenasai
>>723012453ain't nobody planning on doing anything on the editing sheet, that's why it's on there waiting for an editor
>>723012859nobody wants to edit, if you want less people doing multiple roles than learn to edit so they don't have to.
>>723013365the pro tip is that nothing that gets begged for consistently is even worth the attention. the reason we want a shill anchor is so you can hide the chain and not have to see the same couple people beg us to sing meh stuff instead of the 100 better things silently sitting on the sheet.
>>723010841I can probably figure out a place to put devs stuck in the mines like Criterion too, might be more of a stretch though depending on composition.>>723011516Yeah, but I was hoping for suggestions that other anons cared about. If I was just doing this for me I wouldn't bother with input
>>723013557NOT WHAT?DID YOU DIED????
>>723013635do. it.
I'm working hard to contribute as an artist in the future for this thread!
i'm not sure what i've created, but i think i like it in some wayhttps://krakenfiles.com/view/qnDKLtVOOu/file.html
>>723010127I liked that you mentioned the PGA Tour going away in place for LIV, but since that's technically not certain

>>723014865Good luck
>>723007684We've only had one anon submit their take for the japanese speech at the end of The Greatest Umamusume! We're nearing the end of the musical so any other takes would be greatly appreciated it.

>>723019665your throat's gonna be too dry for singing if you keep it up fren
>>723012859 I'm intentionally renaissancing more songs because of this pushback
>>723020462reverse psychology works, I hurt your feelings, you hurt writefag feelings in response
>>723018635Is it worth it to sing it myself then?
>>723020536writefags and expendable and replaceablesingchads and EDITGODS are the sovl of the musical
>>723020803Well I don't see why not, then we can at least mix it.
>>723020809nah singfags get sloppy seconds and editfags get sloppy thirds. its why nobody wants to edit a song they didn't sing. writechads have the freedom to write anything they want at any time, the only true free agents. renfags are slaves to themselves, doing work to do more work to do more work.
>>723020536this is what they get for not writing enough country
>>723021017like we have any singfags that have a country voice
>>723021002>Write song, could sing it>Someone else sings it (better than me)>I mix itEh it can work
>>723021150bro that's like spitting in a hooker's mouth and then kissing her and taking it back. wtf why would you do that.
>>723021068Hey I'm right here!!t. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--dQpzqT6Ks
>>723021209don't you get spit in a hooker's mouth if you're kissing her anyway
>>723021365depends on where you kissed her
Not am I only singan a song, but I am also gonna try and mix and make some art for it as well.
reminder that you can't catch VD in VRChat. Sing one of the VRChat songs!
>>723021692kino, the last week is always super exciting and I love to see what ya'll cook up
>>723014085had a dumb goofy smile on my face the whole time 10/10
editfags, please, we are desperate... spare us some time....
>>723014085Spoopy
If you're that desperate for edits I can just whip out Audacity and get to work tomorrow.
>>723021248nta but A Boy Named Sue is on the sheet rn
waited for the weekend to sing the songs (planned 2 songs+2 contributes) after the workgot sick at the fridayFUCK
>>723023701only the devil implants the idea to wait
Alright cleared context anon check the rentry out and we can get started
Just added my song to the spreadsheet. I'm not hopeful about it being covered so maybe I'll reuse it next year like the lazy fuck I am. Does that break any rules?
>>723024743nope that's fine. What's the song?
what is a moot
>>723024743No, but if we're being honest it's rare for songs to get a 2nd chance, when it's the same singers year after year a lot of the time the 1st time they see it is when they decide if they want to sing it or not. there's already a hazbin song on the sheet that was written last year and I don't think I've seen anyone mention it a single time this year outside of mentioning it exists when you were writing yours. this late in the year at least it could just get passed over solely due to lack of time, so yeah if it's not sung it's probably worth bringing it back next year.
>>723024743My Backlog is being re-submitted for the fifth year already I think, so no
>>723024919I don't think that's something to say proudly desu. if anything that just gets it on the hall of shame for writefags, alongside the worst of the madlibs and the worst of the unsingable songs with unusable syllables and stresses.
>>723024743If you submit any material during the musical time it can be reused as long as it's not sung or already used in the yearly release.You can reuse lyrics, song takes you didn't want to submit, re-do stuff submitted to DLC or even album art if you feel like it.
>>723025036Nothing "proudly" about my post though?..
>>723025049>or even album art if you feel like it.pretty sure that one is a hard no. we have the polls for a reason, if you lose you lose and next year it's the chance for new artfags to try. never seen anything get reused and I know for a fact people have been told no in the past.
>>723025049There are easy word swaps he could make so it flows easier (and I do not want to know if he's already rewritten this once)
That Day Comet Was Sighted only has an instrumental on the finished sheet.
>>723025167Has it really? Well, at least if the art was never submitted into the drive or never left WIP, it can be reused.
>>723025468Ah shit, I'll get to fixing that.
>>723025552if it was never used in the first place, that's not reusing it, so sure. it seems like a weird hypothetical scenario though, in 13 years it hasn't come up once yet.
>>723025552yeah, when an album loses the vote it's gone. shame cuz we always have to toss out some great pieces.
>>723025779Should we start compiling alternative album covers into the DLC releases? Not as album arts for tracks but just the image files. That way they get included somewhere at least.
>>723025552Yeah, the easiest way to just kill any interest in making new art is if the poll with 6-7 winners started with like 80 options because obviously a lot of people would take their losing art and just run it back. It's one thing for writefags because there's no limit to winners, but art has a strict limit on how many we can use. Gotta make new art. As far as I'm considered a WIP was never made to begin with so if someone makes a finished version of their own old WIP that's fine. If something was never submitted into the drive I guess it depends on if the art ended up used for anything, if someone posted it in the thread in 2018 and since then it ended up used for memes or for someone's youtube or something, at that point it's not "/v/tm" anymore and shouldn't be considered even if it was never in the art folder. But that's just a hypothetical anyway, nobody is trying to do something like that.
vibeo gaem
>>723025870We do that already, the art folder is included in the MEGA (and google drive). Here's last years, just downloaded it to verify.
>>723025779I remember making an art for one of my song, submitting it, and the song never got done. So there's that also.>>723025870That's a good idea. I'd love to look through what artfags cooked up during the musical that didnt make the cut. Like that Crash album from a few years (?) back then, when anon was really upset it wasn't chosen iirc.
>>723026280ah, alright, I'm just having bad memory then.
>>723026280>>723026379you and me I guess, scratch what I said >>723026349
>>723026349The /v/oombox still has all the downloads, it's what the little download button next to the album year does. Trash was from X, here ya go.
>>723021068https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZw8qU57bG4?
>>723026561damn, it's a trip down memory lane for sure. It's been years, but seeing it makes me roughly remember the bits of drama instantly. Something along the lines of the artist rejecting some suggestions people had, and then getting mad when people called the random T-posing Keaunu Reeves a reddit thing that shouldn't be there. X was a tough competition with a lot of talented artfags, so something like that was enough to steer some votes away from it. I should download them all for a peek through again. I love these threads dearly and it's funny so many memories came back from seeing a random image.
>>723024919it just needs to be posted one more year, just one more year and it'll get done. the prophecy
>>723027594sorry bubby, it's a metajoke between the singfags, we have a pact that it will always remain on our backlogs.
I'm tempted to write a good "my milkshakes" parody just to spare the backlogs writer from their self-imposed limbo.
>>723027594Sorry mate but it is just like in vidya. Black woman as a protagonist? Doesnt sell, doesnt sing.No I do not care for exemptions
>>723027790we let K sing though
>>723027851She aint a niggy, she is a spiccy

>>723028007Incredible
>>723028007I like how I live in America yet this song "Does not play in my country". What a time to be alive, you can't watch a music video of a song that was made in your country on the WORLD wide web, because (((reasons))).
>>723028690before the political schizos activate I did the ((())) to denote a word echoing, not because of Jews or w/e. But I wouldn't be surprised if there's some copyright fuckery with it.
>>723006758https://vocaroo.com/1gwaVuq7qdapi'm in no state to sing doo wops but this could use some hardware loading sounds for the intro and interlude if anyone's got any. like maybe the sound my 360 used to make when it got a brand new disc to chew on.
>>723006758Chan ban, I tried to make it pitched somewhat like the original but this was about the best I could do.https://krakenfiles.com/view/BJRb3JptyK/file.html
>>723006758https://krakenfiles.com/view/NAsxHvPNAx/file.htmli'm not sure if my editing work did this one justice
>>723029451I like it a lot, the vocals might be a little low compared to the instrumental though imo.
>>723029580The plugins ended up making it insanely loud for some reason so I needed to mess with the volume a bit in a kneejerk reaction. Guess I'll use some trackspacer and bump up the volume by a little.
>>723029559Sounds pretty nice.
Hi one of the anons who worked on GULLGIRL (the vocaloid-like song) here. Thanks for all the feedback in the last thread. I'll tentatively add it to the Finished Sheet for now but will work on trying to make it easier to understand. Some points people brought up:>RenfaggingYou're right. I didn't talk about it explicitly in earlier threads (I asked about Marin's name and I asked a few other related questions about editing and stuff the past few weeks without saying what I was working on) because of the drama around Diversity last year. I'd actually talked about vocaloid in the threads last year and was working on something, but canned it because of the outrage and people lumping vocaloid in with AI. (I didn't dramapost about it. Just didn't bother bringing it up in the threads.) I didn't want people to shoot down the idea before anon and I had anything to show for it. Now that I know it's more acceptable, IF there is ever a next time (only if the right idea comes along), I will be sure to talk about it openly from the beginning, which is always my preference.>discord butt buddiesAnon and I hatched this idea a few years ago in IRC but were just waiting for the right song and idea to come along before doing anything with it. We never wanted to say, "I want to use Vocaloid, so let's come up with a song to justify it," but instead, "I think that Vocaloid could work well for a song from the perspective of an NPC or a waifu where the whole premise hinges on the singer not being a real person, so that's an idea in our back pocket IF the right idea comes up." We've posted about the concept in previous years, again, just didn't do anything with it.
>>723029853>you wrote it about Marin because the original song is about birdsWe removed every single original line from the lyrics, including all the bird jokes, and added new ones. I picked this song because of the bridge where the singer yells SAY YOU LIKE WHAT I'VE GOT INSIDE because I had a vivid flash of being able to tie togetherthe "not a real girl because I'm a seagull" and the "not a real girl because I'm a fictional video game character" parts. The fact that the original song uses bird motifs was an added bonus for people familiar with that song, kind of like how other parodies I've written or sung usually reference the original song in its concept in some way. But if you compare the lyrics, they were changed almost entirely.>difficult to understandThe original song is uses Vocaloid-style software too. I admit that my tuning is not as good as the original professor songwriter's, but I tried to make the tuning as close to the original as possible. IF another idea ever comes up, I'll try to pick a slower song for sure.Anyway thanks for all the feedback and noted for next time if there's ever a next time. I'd only do something like this again if a specific song idea would benefit from it. Otherwise I will always prefer human singers 100%. Click here to unsubscribe from my blog.
>>723029580>>723029773Would this be good enough to add on finished?https://krakenfiles.com/view/4f6oUgtyoO/file.html
>>723030903Yeah that's better I think
>>723006758good enough for finished?https://krakenfiles.com/view/57HwlplgVZ/file.html
Is this any good?
>>723031296I'd vote for it imo. it needs /v/tm XIII on it though.
>>723031296needs /v/ the Musical XIII somewhere
>>723031281too much effort for a shitpost
>>723031348>>723031394Gotcha
>>723031281kekaroo
>>723031281so /v/tm can still make soul....
>>723006758
>>723031281THIS is the shit that gets sung over my perfect, beautiful song?
>>723032281when you write something that gets me to audibly laugh I'll sing your song too
>>723006758Probably the last song I'll sing this musical. Main vocals for The Wolf and one of the backing vocal tracks have been posted to the spreadsheet.https://krakenfiles.com/view/3UD0vN98mL/file.htmlWe could use one more backing vocalist. If we get no takers probably by Monday, I'll move it to general edits and leave a note to pitch shift backing 1 to serve as the second backing track.
I think Undead Bobcat should be moved to the edit tab.
>>723033574has all the vocals right? so yeah, go ahead and move it
>>723033420holy fuck man I didn't think that my last minute song about an obscure indie game would be sung. You're the absolute best. What a legend.
>>723033420NTA but it's good practice in general to take at least 2 takes of every backing track in any song for a fuller sound with panning.
>>723031880sovl
>>723034240I liked the original song enough to where I didn't want to pass this up.
>>723035051you really are a cool guy
>>723024905This is my first time doing the musical there are a good number of songs this year I wanted to sing but I just can’t because of time constraints and picking a song that’s hard to edit
>>723035430then do them next year brother. what songs?
>>723035430>and picking a song that’s hard to editif the editing is a factor don't let it be, if you upload something you can't edit someone else can edit it.
>>723035474yours
>>723035430if you tell me which song is yours and do takes for it I will personally edit it even if it's tough.
God harmonizing with my own bad singing is stupidIs this how the dude from Limbo of the Lost felt at the end?
>>723007970It sounds good to me. Thank you for your work.
unedit my songs
>>723006758Here is Wokes go to Gamedevhttps://krakenfiles.com/view/zKg6N8SMw0/file.htmlGonna drop it in finished unless someone wants to throw me some better backing vocals.
What's stopping us from just doing a chorus version of pregnant sonic? Even though it's a bit too late now, I can't help but think about it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXJA7aG2ulw>>723036876BROTHA!!!!! MAY I HAVE SOME OATS???
>>723036876I think ti's quite good, nice job!!!
>>723036876bröther may I have some öats
>>723036876Very good stuff, gonna enjoy jamming out while timing this one once you get it on the sheet.
>>723024061Yo anon I'm here. How do you want to do this? You want me to just write proposed edits and post them here?
>>723037404Check the rentry first I left a doc link and some comments which I'm writing
>>723037443Oh awesome. Let me grab a drink and I'll hop on in about ten minutes.
>out to eat at a restaurant>song I’m parodying starts playingLEAVE ME ALONE
>>723037619i go to karaoke with my friends all.the time and the number of times I've accidentally transitioned into the wrong lyrics by force of habit should really make me suicidal
Talk about delivering. I was so happy to see it being sung. But when I heard that voice, it was the icing on the cake.I'll see what I can find for that. I've got this one I found of an Xbox 360 sounding like a jet engine, and a standard PS2 startup. I will keep looking though.https://youtu.be/dcCwDVX_ZtY?_-CLMpuscOdg_Ev7https://youtu.be/lZUCUnd5r6o?egPZH9C_ShhkjdhV
>>723037806>karaoke>sing autistic vocaloid song about being autistic and never having a social home.>"Anon, sing something normal.">sigh>sing French sailing/drinking song>they don't know I can speak French>way more impressed with that than my lament that I don't feel like I belongI hate Karaoke.
>>723038064Bro I'd love to karaoke autistic vocaloid songs with you. Kino.
I'm busting out both of the vengabus parodies in my next karaoke session
>>723024061Can you repost the rentry? I don't see it on the sheet.
true chads go to karaoke and pull out the cunny songs
>>723006758Who /upat3inthemorningdrawansongart/ here?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AXoBzTWLP4
>>723038601cool
>>723024061Anon pls
>>723037806I know the feeling. I've been practicing Dentist!, and the amount of times I accidentally say "fat" instead of "bad", or sing "GAME DEV" instead of "dentist" is criminal. I can get away with one more than the other.
True chads sing /v/ songs without explaining it then sit down and refuse to explain and do this repeatedly until they stop asking. One of my favorite old /v/ songs btwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9MpsAftCDk
>>723039268ahhhh, the golden age...
>>723039268the soul of just being able to casually get damn near a dozen singers on a song in the early years is always impressive. we've come a long way but the original years will always be special.
>>723039268This.
>>723039268It's funny how accurate this is years later, lmfao.
How are we on the album art categories?
>>723039268I always feel seen when I see hear the line about "the undisputed master of thousands of reply bait." Mostly because that used to be my schtick before it got too easy to make people mad and I quit. Politics ruined my hobby.
>>723039175Sorry was eatinghttps://rentry.org/ft9coci6
>>72303967211 years and it has indeed only become worse.
I bought a Kuromi plushie at PAX…
>>723039948Platforms/Industry is basically set I think, between the 2 they're gonna share 1 album together again most likely. At least 3 great ones out of these can easily fit there.Vidya is gonna get 3 or maybe even 4 albums, but it does already have 6ish options and most of them are quite good. Would not hurt to add more but I think it's inevitable other people will if you won't.Board Culture probably could use more the most. We'll likely have 3 Board Culture albums or at least 2 and a hybrid album that contains some BC, but it's possible we have 4, who knows. Only a couple of the arts fit BC and imo there's only 1 BC option I would give a vote to currently.We already have a good DLC art in the other folder and we only need 1. Could always make another one for DLC if you feel like it but there's rarely competition there.
>>723039268I was gonna make a song about /v/ using one of the old Jibjab songs about the news, I scrapped it for another song.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Q2EPKKVrqI
>>723040469Good, the prophecy must be fulfilled. See you in 8 months anon
>>723038064>speaks english>can speak frenchlet me guess, its santiano?
>>723040780Maybe pique la baleine
>>723040531Is it frowned upon to use single cover art for album art?
>>723038292Appreciate you anon, what's your favorite vocaloid song rn?>>723040780Yes, its Santianohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWx7O9bUnMg>>723040819No, he's right if you live in Quebec or another French/English infused part of the world Sanitano has really caught fire.
>>723040531BackfromHack and the Ayy Rivals are my favourites so far.Introduction to Console War and Doomed Man are also neat.Not feeling the others, but I don't have anything bad to say about them either.
>>723040929There's no rule against it. Being clear it might lose you a couple niche votes when people are narrowing down their options if the best logic they can come to is "well I like them equally so I guess this dumb reason is enough to go with that one". A good idea or good art can very easily overcome that. I'm assuming you're asking because you have a good idea already in which case absolutely go for it. Highly recommended to give progress updates and such to the thread as you go because that's always a way to make sure (1) people actually recognize the original/parody, and (2) people gain familiarity with it and feel it as part of the culture of this year.
>>723041123personally these are my votes so far, with green being super enthusiastic votes, yellow being iffy only because I don't want too many platforms arts to win at once, and red being something I might vote for but that probably changes by time the actual poll comes and we have more options.
>>723037980>>723029102Might help if I actually link the post. But thanks again.
>>723026280>Diplomacy winsI want to apologize again to the artist for forcing a change of the flags from Civ 6 to Civ 5. I was unaware that they were real.>>723026349>>723026561>>723027424>CrashI do NOT apologize for being a hardliner against the dumb T-posing Keanu. It's reddit as fuck and ruins the composition of the whole piece, which the artist posted progress of from the very first sketches and with constant suggestions and improvements from anons (including yours truly), making it a lovely "collectively drawn" image. It's a real shame that the artist became so insistent on adding it that it soured everybody's feelings towards it, and thus it was not voted for out of spite.
Album art idea for rich idorts ONLY: Lemon Demon's View Monster but with a Steam Deck, ROG Ally, and Lenovo Legion
Shut up and trust this inspiration and motivation posthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pGuu8QMk6E
>>723041423I can't blame you at all about Crash, I felt the same way that year.I feel the same about someone dropping hello kitty fanart out of the blue this year and not bending on anything like tweaking it to actually at least use their vidya designs
>>723040531vibri sexo
>>723041460Ken sold out his 4chan roots for money and I hate him for it but I can't deny he actually produces very good music, regardless if you're part of the fandom or not.
>>723041523I'd just be happy that he exists and came from 4chan considering we were the ancient greece to reddit (ancient rome)
>>723041481I think vibro is really cool but I can't spare it a vote because the way I am going to see my album arts will be like this 99% of the time. I will never recognize vibro on a small thumbnail.
>>723041523I've heard the name in passing, no idea he used 4chins. Pretty cool
>>723041325I'd say we're fairly similar, albeit with my degree of enthusiasm being a notch lower on "I'll Break the Oath" and "Screen Girl Dream Girl".Might change if I got the joke on "I'll Break the Oath" and Fippy Bippy.
When is the voting on album art?
>>723041674it's not going to be until after the 15th, but it adjusts based on when we're considering doing the stream. you probably have until something like the 18th I would guess, because there's no shot the stream is before the 25th and we're not in a need to rush the album art polls finished when we probably won't even have the songs all edited by the 18th.
>>723041756album poll was on the 18th last year, so yeah
>>723041756>>723041798Thanks.
>>723041670I'll Break The Oath has a pretty sick story, it's Peter Molyneux as a demon and all the bubbles are references to insane lies and stories he spun to tell games. He's one of the most unironically chaotic evil people in the game dev space so an album depicting him as a devil is amazing synergy potential, AND he's not run into the ground like many other characters that go on albums.Screen Girl Dream Girl feels like one I'll probably downgrade to yellow if more Vidya art comes, but I do like it visually which obviously helps.
>>723041670afaik Fippy Bippy's joke is just that the original album is named Damn Skippy (which rhymes).Also because we've got like eight fucking Lemon Demon songs this year.
When is album order typically decided on? Thinking of making some song art but the song in question would be a good album closer candidate and those can't have unique art, right?
>>723041460>>723041523I saw the panda mascot and thought it was Lo-Ping but trooned out.That guy made killers in Year I, especially this one:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heIH9vfwKBMSometimes there are twitter screencap threads with him for some reason.
>>723041975Just make the song art, art is always a higher prestige than album spot position. I don't think anyone carres about album closers to begin with, we don't even vote on that, it's album openers and the literal last song of the year people care about.
>>723041963Yeah it was just a rhyme joke
>>723041963but what does fippy bippy even mean.
>>723041756>you probably have until something like the 18thAren't album art submissions still on the 15th?
>>723042115meme version of fpbp
>>723042119I don't recall it ever being that way but my first year was only like 8.
>>723041880Neat. I remember Peter Molyneux' lies about Fable. "You can plant a tree and it'll grow in real time". Well, you've sold me.>>723042157I think that one stays on the "if nothing better comes along" tier. Passable, but nothing spectacular.
>>723042119>>723042263pic related wasn't finished until after the 15th if i recall correctly so if it ever was a rule it certainly isn't one anymore
Fippy Bippy would have benefited greatly by progress reports in the thread, and character suggestions from the thread even if it went with mostly the ones already there. That's another one someone dropped as finished, yeah? I fucking love Umineko and seeing Beatrice there is sick, but the art could have fit another character or two in there, and it has 1 character less than the original art does.
>>723042449Well I submitted it like day 3 of the musical, though I do still have the source file so I can edit it if need be. If you have some suggestions I'll see what I can do. The main goal for the silhouettes was a shitpost about silhouette threads which is mainly why Jack is there and also the Scout (since tf2 has a known silhouette meme), then Midna and Beatrice were just memorable ones added on a whim. A fifth can be added and some can be replaced if you have good ideas
>>723038601>>723006758Time to go to bed. I'll probably color this a little tomorrow, but I think I'll keep it mostly rough, aside from small corrections.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiXaT_1I-vw
>>723042402>Neat. I remember Peter Molyneux' lies about Fable. "You can plant a tree and it'll grow in real time".Exactly, Fable is the bubble on the bottom right because he did love telling tall tales about it. If you look into the shit he's said that's not even close to the worst sadly. He's scammed individual people out of real money with essentially worthless contests even, just insane shit like the "Curiosity" cube on the right of the album. He had people clicking a single big MMO cube in a mobile app for 6 months straight, with one quotes like>"what is inside the cube is life-changingly amazing by any definition"and>"There is something we haven't told everybody about when you play the cube. When you play the cube you're also doing something else. You don't realize you're doing it."So what happened 6 months after people slaved away clicking it? The last guy to click got promised a god cheat role in mmo-ish game Godus for 5-10 years (backtracked to 6 months) and 1% of the revenue from Godus. Well they didn't bother keeping in contact with the winner despite announcing him publicly, and he never got his God Role or a single penny. Godus flopped anyway so Molyneux shamelessly made an excuse that nothing was 1% of nothing.
>>723042409For at least the last few years, art submissions have been allowed after deadline, but they need to be ready in time for the release.
>>723042596I don't think any should be replaced at this point because they're good choices, it would help the chances of getting some votes if you add another one or two other people suggest. I don't even want to suggest one because Bea alone makes me want to vote for it, but I'm sure other people will have suggestions.
>>723041880>>723042862The album's also referencing the opening cutscene of Black & White, pretty much the god game that put Molyneux on the map. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8sfa_KKpFYIt's a pretty decent game too, though not really delivering 100% of the hype.It has an interesting mechanic regarding machine learning for your "creature" that actually works (and this was in 2000), but for whatever reason this was never properly implemented in the (botched) sequel.
>>723043091I could never get my second hand CD of B&W to run but I always wanted to raise that cow as a kid.
>>723043225Nowadays the PC gaming wiki and shit like B&W Ultimate should be able to get it working, but that's if you wanna satisfy your curiosity.
>>723043091Does anyone know where I can find that one elder scrolls meme where the Thalmor talks about killing everyone to ascend to the next plane of existence, and the Nords or something tell them to kill themselves?
>>723043282Sorry anon, I only know how to lie about trees, not mountains
>>723043091>The album's also referencing the opening cutscene of Black & White, pretty much the god game that put Molyneux on the map. >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8sfa_KKpFYOh so that's why the colours are as they are, makes sense now
TLDR: Draw some BOARD CULTURE art, a decent one is essentially guaranteed a slot if nobody else does.
If art submission deadlines can stretch past the 15th I might have the time to buy some clay for artan...
>>723042836MUH FUARKING HEROES and reimu
>>723043726the sooner the better realistically, if things end up lining up where we do have art polls on the 16th or 17th, there's not gonna be a delay because someone thought they had more time.
>>723043651Damn, well thanks I guess. It sucks when you can recall a funny meme, but can't recall where you put it. RIP.
>>723043791yeah actually why is reimu there? does she have a connection to the kings of /v/ winners?
>>723043903queen of /v/ 2020 winner, i guess
>>723043903I think she's just there as a cheerleader and the artfag is a touhoufag so inserting touhou into everything comes naturally whether it fits or not. imo it should be swapped for something like a crossdressing /v/tan or something if there's not enough kings to fill the art, touhou gets enough representation without needing to invade art for songs unrelated to it.
>>723043903Dante and Reimu won in the same year, have a bunch of funny connections (red somewhat comedic demon hunters who are poor but really powerful) and this made them work as a pairingUsually the queen and king winners get some fanart together, and in the picture I'm basing it on it works best since the two most prominent things outside of Kenshiro and Raoh was uh, MamiyaEasier to associate, that's also why I made her a cheerleader & made her look at Dante.
>>723044034yeah a touhou randomly getting way more screen real estate than half of the actual kangs is an odd choice. its song art tho so I don't really care if they want to put in some nepotism ideas.
>>723042119individual song art is allowed until almost the very last minute, or in "don't be a dick" terms at least 24 hours before the stream. later than that is rude. if someone makes late song art for a decided album opener then they will be beheaded if album art is submitted after album art voting starts then you've fucked up big time
>>723043903She is there as a cheerleader which makes sense given her general status. But I do agree that having a /v/-tan in a cheerleading outfit cheering on the kings of /v/ would be better.
>>723044034I mean I've avoided drawing anything Touhou so far this year after doing a bunch of album art, seems like a kind of kneejerk reaction, my reasoning is as follows: >>723044054But if you have a good idea of what to slap over Mamiya then go ahead, but most of the King tourney characters aren't women and I couldn't figure something topically relevant that isn't off-topiv to /v/ (like maybe Raped Yami Yugi if i draw him as a twink next to Grimm)
>>723044343I don't get what you mean by general status, I don't really follow touhou I am just forced to see it consistently against my will.
all of you are gay for /v/-tan in a skirt
>>723044402I'm not trying to bust your balls on it, just saying I don't think anyone but a touhoufag would even consider inserting a touhou into a kangs of /v/ art with no other women. it's your art so do what you want in the end, I made my suggestion about what I think fits better and I don't really care about it deeply past that. There's plenty of touhou songs this year to give touhou art to as well if you want to keep drawing them, it's your time after all.
>>723044479/v/-tan is just /v/ so it's only natural that if the art has to depict a neutral fan of the kings, it would be /v/-tan. there are femanons too you know, did you assume /v/-tan's gender?!?
>>723044479what if i am???? you got a problem with that????????
>>723044583Maybe I could just draw good ol anon in cheerleading ware, but I'll see tomorrow.
>>723044308>If someone makes late song art for a decided album opener they will be beheadedGoing to correct you on that. They will be taken into the woods, raped and beheaded, possibly not even in that order.
>>723044835maybe they're asking themselves why you would take a man into the woods after beheading him
4u
>>723044783Actually when I think about it, green anon is actually a tournament participant (one time in 2020 when the host was dumb), i could totally add him kek
>>723045146yeah I like that
>>723044660>reverse trap /v/-tan
>>723045305if ManlyGirls ever was sung that should be in the art.
>>723045362never expect pop anons to sing their requests
>>723045424I don't think that the LadyBoys requester was trolling. I think that they read my lyrics and did not like them but were too shy or awkward or polite to say it in the thread. LadyBoys requester, if you did read my lyrics and did not like them, I would rather know so that I can stop wondering about it. It is worse to not know.
>>723045667doubt it, the other pop songs requested this year have mostly also not been sung.
>>7230450131. As punishment for their crime2. https://youtu.be/6Qh6ROuYJzs?si=xvBRuPhqCEnZRgPv
Slapped up something quick based on Mass of the Fermenting Dregs but it looks empty without the hair. /v/-tan is just too bald for this
>>723045984>mass of the unmanaged cablescomputer cable spaghetti all around his big bald head
