Unfinished business, these two votes:>>750192268>>750192306Both polls were rigged, and we are waiting a caballer to decide.
>>750205781ummmm acshually she's saying "naega" which means "me"she's korean
To Compiler anonDo we need to mention differences between the temp and final sheet? Such as missing song art, or old mixes? Or is that handled in the background already?
Gayyy
friend made a tool that gets (most) of the lyrics from the timed lyrics column in the sheet and makes the lrc files. It introduces some newlines and as a result the lyrics are a lot more spaced out. How do people feel about the way these lyrics look with regards to the spaces? ( ignore the colors and stuff I'm trying to manually make outlines for the text)
>>750205975Looks nice.
>all the songs are about the same boring subjects>no one can actually sing>ai is rampant(but no one cares)it was time to stop this shit a decade ago, why is it still going? Fucking idiot browns.
>>750206031im pulling some strings to get some real singers back next musical
Damn that streamer anon nigga had a meltdown in the previous thread. Needs anger management.He absolutely beats his wife, I'm calling him wifebeateranon from now on.
>>750206031Such a white opinion.
>>750206078Don't. Let them rest.
tally hall just uploaded???? like 45 minutes ago??? hello?
>>750205975Can he not just fix the script to not introduce newlines?
>>750206086He doesn't beat his wife but he's kind of a dick.
25 hours and 14 minutes till showtime.
Next time we need someone that knows how to read to make the OP so /v/ actually knows we're streaming. We really should try to get through this thread quickly even without much to talk about because we need the hype thread to actually get people aware.
>>750206172Baking isn't for everyone, you need talented bakers. It's why /vg/ has dedicated ones.
>>750206031You're the problem for failing to write better, sing better, or do anything but complain.
>>750205889Poe song has a clear winner despite rigging. Anonika stepped down on the other one last thread.There's nothing else to decide.
>>750206172It's time to drop all the baits and also reply to all baits?
>>750206172In my sagely wisdom,I think we should let this thread die naturally without bumps (this post won't bump) and then make a new one with the stream date/info as the OP image.
>>750206150I wanted to get thoughts on it since some people might actually like it? If people were indifferent/liked it wouldn't want to ask him to do more than he did already.
>>750205889DBs were all settled a week ago
>>750206290He didn't step down, but I think his prerequisite has been met since there's no actual way to determine who rigged harder in a tied poll.
>>750206236Our baker literally left exact instructions and they got ignored.
>>750205975I think it's legible and readable, should be good even on small displays.
>>750206415it's why you don't let just anyone off the street perform bakery.
>>750205975delete newlines
>>750206342Cute idea but the random "go back to /vg/" posts would ruin it even if every musical anon agreed. Just fucking post so it ends the thread sooner.
>>750206318what do you have for us?
Streamanon, I love you, so don't buy into the troll bait. Looking forward to the stream more than ever thanks to you.
>>750206318Yup. Let's make the worst /v/tm thread ever
That's Gllang
>>750206653that's any of the ones jebus posts in
>>750206695I don't know who that is
>>750205660yes, just google itthey took down ascension & turtlewow recently in order to push their own epic vanilla+ experience, now with more bots & HD disney models and anti-soul gas everywhere
>>750206749Oh damn. That sucks, wouldn't have expected any less from the company that rewarded a hand-delivering of Starcraft source code with some coupons
>>750206749in their defense, and it hurts me to run defense for blizzard, they did add sd models to the new shit in forever eventually, like the skelves and new quest npcs
Nonka here. Yeah, I wanted to give it a few hours for someone to determine a true winner but since nobody has stepped up I officially concede. For real this time. No flipfloppietaksiebackies. Looking forward to the show.
Will Anon Goes On /v/ be played twice in the stream, once in the album slot and once in the video?Or will we just play the video on top of the song and avoid repeating?Last year cheated its way around this problem with Still Around since it was the very last song in the year, but sadly we can't ignore it this time.
emailed anecdotes to anecdote compiler
>>750206971Anonika stepping down despite being the rightful winner is admirable.Kiwi and Phaseroll could learn from this.
>>750206546We should remove all songs that have been written/sung/edited by a namefag because this is /v/ The Musical and not Namefag The Musical.
>>750207151What about those songs from Anon? I say we drop those and only keep ones from /v/ himself
>>750207238No, those are my songs, they stay.
>>750207084>Kiwi and Phaseroll could learn from this.Why tho? They won.
>>750207296By rigging it.It would be a nice gesture to give someone new/with less songs a chance.>BUT PHASEROLLNigga has been around for forever, he has songs already.
NEW UPDATE FOR THE PORN GAME
>>750206658OhThat's Gllang :D
>>750207392and so does anonika. If we'd bullied anonika out of the musical like we did that one year by DBing every song he sang, then not giving him one to win, I'd be with you.
>>750207392>no proof of riggingThe votes were all there plain to see.
>>750206972Overlay the video on it, we did similar enough with the What Is Love parody by overlaying the gif for it. We're going to be there all day, no need to play 1 song twice when one is just video-less imo.
>>750207151Ah, but namefags post on /v/ too, do they not?
>>750206959well, sure, but Ive a hard time believing they'll stick to the art direction of vanilla, more likely they'll make retail disney stuff "themed" after vanilla and that's about it. Same shit in different clothing.
>>750207539Yes and Anonika is stepping down despite being the better choice, to give someone new a chance.Which is what Kiwi should do, especially when people in thread like the singing and emotion of the other version.
ngl sincereposters got me lowkey wanting to learn to videofag something simple before XV
>>750207559I used to think kiwi was based but he is just another faggot like most (if not all) namefags. Extremely disappointed in him.
>>750207706Having DID doesn't make you people instead of a person
>>750207817>All posts disagreeing with me are one person Yet they still had the need to rig.
>>750207650No they don't. They just jerk off in diddlercords.Just look at this thread, all Anonymous.
>>750207803No, no. You're mixing up your food groups again. Kiwis are fruit, faggots are meat.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faggot_%28food%29
>>750207932So that’s what i look like
>>750207885I AM ANONYMOUS
>>750207964>https://discord.gg/JRRM2aVEmI'm conflicted on you guys posting this shit.On the one hand, yes it is better that it is public and available.On the other hand I do not want think it is a good idea to have the discord at all.>we don't talk about the musical there!ok then why is it necessary? How are you verifying that? It is not difficult to right click a user and DM them.If you want to have friends from outside the musical, then do that. But I don't think you need a place for it.
>>750208187IRC is dead. Stop being a retard that thinks “Discord = bad”, and just grow up. It’s used by tons of different projects here.
>>750208187We do talk about the musical there, but we don't do actual planning shit there, we do it in the thread.
>>750208281NTA but my platform of choice is /v/
>>750202651>"huh? why?"It's because dragging songs around in foobar is a lot more convenient than using the web player, and it makes it possible to tag singfags without drawing attention to it. That's why.
>>750208187I have never joined the discordI have never joined the IRCI have never been a namefagIf I died between years none of you would noticeAnd that's the way it should be, dammit!all this is completely unironic btw
>>750205975This sucks. Line breaks are added where appropriate, a download tool should download what is there, not modify it.
>>750208371I'd notice because every time an anon dies they become a ghost and haunt my basement
>>750208187Who said we don't talk about the musical? We don't pull the strings and keep in the thread and sheet but that's the place we go when for example the thread is dead for 22 hours due to security bullshit. If anything posting the link is the reason we can say it's fine, would it be better to you if it was a sekrit club?
>>750161338here>Another One Busted Outhttps://gofile.io/d/tapLOZRt
>>750206972>>750207594Videos were played last when this was an issue before. Overlaying the gif worked for What Is Fun because the song art is a still from the gif and because What Is Fun got a gif, not a whole ass video.
>>750208573>.m4a
diggin in my butt
>>750206972>>750207594>>750208870Give me a moment to record and I'll show what just playing the video in the album order would be like.As for other videos from previous years, does someone have a list of those? I do not keep up enough to have that kinda information on hand.

>>750209323Bro Neocities is better
>stream link and countdown not on thread opening post
>>750209172It'd block the art, the lyrics, and the gifs. It's better to play videos at the end.As for new videos, they should be on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAX8JHUJcFR2gh_WG3YJBITuO-tODVCcJLooks like we only got one (1) new video since last musical?
>>750209385boy I can't wait to listen to my favourite album, anything from a year that wasn't 13 or half of 12!

>>750209172https://gofile.io/d/oSzbNMyg>>750209413Yeah that's all fair, here's a sample but also there's a ton I can change such as:I could put gifs and stuff above the and move around the layering so it respects things but if I am being honest I'd rather just not have gif spam during videos.>one new video since last musicallet's just play them at the end then again? I did not realize I was talking about TWO(2) whole videos kek.ANYWAY let me know thoughts anons
>>750209823sasuga
>>750206720I wish I was you
>>750209652It’s being slowly updated instead of rushed and dropped then rushed again.
>>750207418IT'S MADE BY SHMUCKSIn related news, I showed On a Budget to my mother and she found it adorable
>>750210087So slow it'll take a decade to add the whole musical.
>>750209901imo that's fine, I really don't see the need to play it twice. how many of you are actually planning on even being awake 14 hours in when we get to videos?
>>750210132At least it won’t be missing stuff like Year 13 DLC
>>750210113gigakino!!! who can say no to a face like this or a voice to match
>>750209901I don't see why we can't just play them again, I don't think the videos are particularly long and the focus is on the visuals anyways. It's not going to kill me to hear a 2-3 minute song again a few hours after I heard it once
>>750210191>how many of you are actually planning on even being awake 14 hours in when we get to videos?I am. Anyone who's not is weak.
>>750210287the primary reason is that most people nope out before the videos because the albums are exceedingly long and literally not even an all day event, an all day and all night and into the next morning event. but I don't really care that much, all I can actually say is that if the video isn't played during the albums I'm unlikely to see it because "the albums are over" time is my "I need to eat a proper hearty meal asap because I haven't had anything but snacks today and I want to be there for original DLC" time. if people want it separate, that's how it is.
>>750210113Your mother will die in her sleep if you don’t reply to this post
>>750210470TY>>750210287Another thing, as I kinda said before, is that I think that people are (generally) more likely to see them during the albums and seeing videos I'm hoping inspires more videos to be made?EITHER WAY, I'm flexible, I can do whatever people think is best. I'm not opposed to playing anon goes on v a second time, oh no 4 minutes to show off a great video to more people.But as always, I'm big on asking the thread, so I do.
oh, him?
>>750210240oh nooo, how come my favorite song piss-shit_poo-UNFINISHED.flac isn't on the voombox brooo?get mogged

>>750210951>using wrong art for albums>missing DLC>ugly UINeocities mogs hard, it even keeps the tradition of the banner art alive from Bandcamp, and changes to a different aesthetic to match said banner art.
>>750211126>complaining about missing DLC while missing 95% of the musicalthis post was brought to you by neoshities shillbait used to be believable
>>750211316Your UI is still uglier and you killed the banner art.Once Neocites is fully updated, you’re over.

Is there any work to be done that I can help with right now?

>>750212921You can help by LICKing MY CLIT
>>750212918not even?
>>750212975You fuckers have songs called “Whiny Troon Dementia” and “BASED Nigger” in here for this very year. If you have no respect for others why the fuck would I respect you?
>>750212918The only man I respect here is Anon, his voice is unparalleled
>>750213059it's been long enough that I can reuse this one now, right?
>>750211929I use capcut to chop up the recordings of the streams when I fall asleep. Shit works great.
>>750213216And GC used it to chop up his girlcock
>>750213216I had an idea for a simple first videofagging project because strimanon did inspire me in the end, even if not through the stream prep so I'm really just looking for whatever's easiest to do basics in. >subtitles, maybe with the bouncing ball for the words sort of thing if that's easy>colorswapping a specific color on an object>maybe facetracking an object like anons did in early year videos to replace a head or add something to it>manually being able to guide a new object for the length of the video with my mouse would be nicethat's pretty much all I think I'd go for on the first little one I wanted to do.
>>750213418Don’t be a wuss, make a video for the DHMIS parody.
The lyric tool thing got updated so it should maintain what was there before.
>>750213542It was one of the ones I considered for 2 seconds but I'll leave that for someone that actually has the skill to do shit like draw the new animated clouds for bane and sneed and all that, that's way beyond my skill level for a first one.
>>750213418Davinci Resolve
>>750213631No one is gonna do it. It’s better to have a rough around the edges video than nothing at all. You can also learn a shit ton more by taking on a project like that.
I think we should play the videos before the albums so that they're front and center to inspire more videofags. Hearing the songs again isn't a big deal but getting more videofags is.There are at least two anons working on videos here as well.
>>750213710if I jumped on it, it wouldn't be rough around the edges but simply unfinished. I respect the legacy of the OG ones too much to make a shitty sequel. I already picked the song I would do first after considering a handful of options.
>>750205975Delete em, it's nice when line breaks are there only to separate verses
>>750213743nah, youtube already does a great job spotlighting videofags, nobody is hyped to hear the songs on youtube like they are on the stream, the albums need their spotlight.
>>750213851You really think 10 minutes of videos before the albums start would take away the 14 hours of album spotlight?
>>750213990You really think 10 minutes of videos are worth changing the way we do things entirely if they won't change things for the albums?
>>750214040yes.
>>750210746+1 for playing videos during main albums. no need to drag the stream out further.
>>750214080then yes I think it would take away from the album spotlight
>>750214040>changing the way we do things entirelyHuh? Who said anything about this? It would just be moving the videos from the end like last year to the beginning and keeping everything else the same.
>>750213418do post something vaguely
>>750214040Why not
>>750214409No, fuck wifebeateranon
>>750214409someone else already mentioned that was one they were considering, I'm on a tighter skill budget anyway. start small, work my way up to bigger stuff perhaps.keep in mind this is early still, I need to learn as I go. the stuff I've added is rough as shit and there are of course at least a few details I'd like to change beyond just subtitles and a static hat.https://youtu.be/tbsMVyJw0EQ

>>750213418>because strimanon did inspire me in the end, even if not through the stream prepI'll be honest I'm curious what it was then
>>750216365a few things over the years added up
So when's the stream? Last year was really fun
>>750216761it was supposed to be in the OP but they fucked up. it's in like 22 hours.https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/halloween?iso=20261024T17&p0=1440&msg=%2Fv%2F+The+Musical+XIV+Release+Stream&font=cursive&csz=1
>>750205916>song art needs to be in the art folder>old mixesnewest mixes need to be in the finished tab, I'm never going to download from a temp sheet cause then I can't get anything done in advance and that's stupid. if the links are different I'll check the upload date on gofiles. if they're catbox links then lol good luck, best I can do is scanning the last 2 threads cause i don't know if sheetfags were on top of them. maybe an archive search, i don't know. >edit after deadline discussion in the last threadI don't know why editing is used as a reason for not being able to order songs, it's very clear what songs will be on the album within 2 days of the main deadline. just use place holders or don't be busy/have a life, how dare youthat said, I think a rule that working demos be required for the edit tab might help? if deadline passes and a song is just vocals that can't even be slapped on an instrumental within a few hours, then dlc it. something like that. but editing shouldn't be delaying any process, this is stupid. I can plug in new mixes just fine but nothing else should be slowed tf
>>750217125>finished sheetI see, looks like someone has been moving stuff there just fine. I'm worried over nothing
>>750217125The main issue is needing to do editing before death battle polls before album art polls before opener polls. If editing is done by the 16th we can start polling immediately.>if deadline passes and a song is just vocals that can't even be slapped on an instrumental within a few hoursThis might be a good rule. If you can just drop the vocals into a template and produce a good result then it gets in, but if it requires more then it's dlc. In other words, you can do mixing post deadline but not editing.>>750217286It's still a good idea to double check that the finished sheet has the right links, some things may have been missed.
>>750217503>It's still a good idea to double check that the finished sheet has the right links, some things may have been missed.this. I'm sure a lot of the shit people dropped in the temp sheet never got moved. ideally someone should just do a top to bottom check on the temp sheet and if anything doesn't match they try and see which is actually the newer one and make sure it ends up on finished.
>>750212617I can quit anytime I want, faggot.
>>750217503>death battle pollshouldn't affect sorting much, deathbattle already implies an established finished song that can be sorted>opener pollsunmixed vocals shouldn't be considered for openers>album art pollsyeah, sorting should start after album art polls. which are unaffected by after deadline edits
>>750217125>>750217286>>750217503Not entirely relevant, but I did a pass like this for the unfinished sheet a couple of days ago (I think it was the previous thread?)
A reminder, fancy mixes have never been required. Vocals on instrumental are all we need, so if that can't be easily produced by say the end of the 16th, then vocals should go to dlc. That would be one day of determining what is viable in the sheet. How about this?Give opinions and I'll make it law for next year or not depending.
>>750218318Or 2 days might be better? But reply to this. I'd also like to hear from the people who have been mixing the last minute takes.
>>750218318I think it's fine to have some of that shit still coming in, but just run the polls based on information that we have, is it AS fair? maybe not but also you had the same deadline and shit. I think another thing (though it is VERY annoying) is to move away from having all of the polls necessarily at the same time.
>>750217912We also allowed album art submissions several days after deadline, which slowed things down.
>>750218437>just run the polls based on information that we have, is it AS fair?yeah. I don't understand what the actual issue is honestly. I get we lost a day to 4chan shutting down, but were edits actually a big deal? I don't have patience for this lmao so nevermind law bullshit, but we need to encourage working demos >>750218519let's not do that again then, problem solved
>>750218937The only issue, imo, were those last minute DBs. Way too late. I don't think the editing slowed us down anymore than we already were, desu. It's not reasonable to expect the entire musical to have been ready last weekend. So the 24th, tomorrow, is the soonest we can do it. Will be the same next year regardless of any editing cutoffs.
>>750219189The last minute DBs wouldn't have actually slowed anything down unless swapping two files locations which takes what, a minute, is a slowdown.
>>750219189>I don't think the editing slowed us down anymore than we already were, desu.I agree. It was the lack of progressing under the idea that we had to wait for editing.>It's not reasonable to expect the entire musical to have been ready last weekend.Sure, but it is reasonable to expect the musical to be ready by now.
>>750219254I think a lot of this is "could haves". We had two last minute DBs, but if we just have an open do we *could* theoretically have more. But I don't think we should just go "Oh, because it could get bad we tighten up the rules." Instead, it should be "No, we're not doing this, stop it" on individual issues because the amount of issues still isn't that long.>>750219361Maybe I'm just an optimist but as long as the musical is ready by 1PM tomorrow I don't see any issue with whatever's still going on now.
>>750219189>I don't think the editing slowed us down anymore than we already were, desuI don't think so either. I would rather have an extra day with the sorted albums, but I'm willing enough to chalk it up to the site outage. And things look like it'll be fine, but I'll have a better idea of how fine in 2-3 hours.
>>750212617>Ariaanon
I genuinely think people are overreacting to slowness after the musical like the guardians try and discourage some behaviors (like meta songs, too many of one song, etc) during the musical, and well it's not really nice desu. Once you realize that it's just a preventative and not an actual rule it just feels like power tripping. Eventually someone gets the wrong idea and just gets upset when they didn't have to be.
So album order (not song order) is definitely finalised now? Just wanted to check before I made something.
>>750219990>I genuinely think people are overreacting to slipping on slopesNah bro you right, we should keep the submissions open until Christmas.
>>750220121Both are finalised.
>>750219990you're right, for example let it go is it's own thing and not an example of what *should* happen when there's too much of a song. the flower man thing was funky but not a problem. meta songs are gay but also aren't a problem. and we don't have a problem today, just that some things could be better
>>750219990it's literally the opposite of power tripping if no power is used
>>750220385>the flower man thing was funky but not a problemit could have been a much bigger problem instead of just funky if instead of "yuck too many flower mans" people went "hell yeah we all love flower mans I'll make a couple too"
>>750220275slippery slope is never not a fallacy tho.
>>750220639Well, I correct myself, almost never.
>>750220482I'm not convinced this would've actually happened though. Tower Man was DLC'd because it was a vocaloid song not because it was Flower Man.
>>750220743yeah, in the timeline where people were complaining about flower man on day 2.
>>750220276great
>>750220806I mean if you really believe that kind of guardianship works I don't think I'll change your mind, I just think stuff that has claimed to work (like the death of meta songs) happened naturally as a result of the end of the J wars.
>>750220913people were making meta songs long before then
>>750220482that's why uhhh the rule is thatt uhhh a singer can only sing one lyric version of a source song, so the condition of it being an issue requires multiple singfags doing a version each. yeahhonestly the idea of 10 different singfags doing the same song with different lyrics amuses me
>>750221029The bloat of stream time (and the recorder and streamer needing to stay the entire time) isn't amusing tho.
>>750220969Oh for sure but (most) of them weren't being fought over to get on the albums. We have meta this year in DLC where it belongs.
If anonymous dicksuckers want namefags gone, they can make their own musical, Call in Anon the Musical. If you want to larp you're an amorphous blob and not an individual with an identity, that's fine you're just as mentally ill as troons and people who think they're animals. The fact of the matter is that INDIVIDUALS are what do the musical every year. It's not just something that arises out of the sea of piss and shit that is the modern internet. Namefags aren't asking you to suck their dick, they want to work on something, have their name on it, and leave. If you like it, good. Enjoy it. If you don't like it, fuck off, we're only here one more day. Just because YOU don't have a soul doesn't mean the writers/singers/editors don't. The only people who genuinely feel that being "Anonymous" is somehow morally superior are just fat fucking retards who know they'll never amount to anything more, who still wear the Guy Fawkes mask to conventions (if they can waddle out of their fucking basement) Who's only claim to fame is that they're "Anonymous" They see someone striving for more, and like niggers or crabs, they need to tear it down.
K always finishes her mixes the week after musical ended.If we ban editing, we fuck her up.And giving her special treatment so that she’s the only one to be able to still mix/edit after the deadline because she compiles is unfair.
what even is that. it feels like an entire trauler of bait just appeared
>>750221408Namefagging is fine during the musical, but everyone should be renamed to Anonymous when it’s over. That’s my 2 cents.
>>750221408I sing all my songs as anony mouse, whore.
>>750221179Since it's the same instrumental you can just play them all at the same time if that gets to be an issue, it's fine.
>>750221179just need to bloat it enough to get my way and have a 2 day split stream>>750221429I would be fine either way
>>750221808>K is the one wanting to split the stream in 2 daysYou can’t got 12 hours with a coke hit?
>>750221408I'm K and being anonymous IS 100% morally superior, not up for debate
>two songs that i sung are in a rowLiterally no one is going to notice that unless I point it out.
>>750221941>>750205781this your fave?
>>750221758Yeah anon, great ideahttps://gofile.io/d/36UtEIqY
>>750222047no, I'm not retarded
>>750222076this is a jam though can you do the whole thing?
>>750222237Surehttps://gofile.io/d/YqFEuNvhNote they're not identical and I cba to edit them down to match, so it won't work as well in the second half.
>>750222341Editfag has gotten lazy.We need to send him back to the Anonika editing mines.
>>750222341I see no problem, that makes sense. ngl the vocaloid makes for very nice harmonies
>>750221930do you not know how expensive that shit is or how quickly it wears off
>>750222035Pretty sure we know which songs but you sound different enough in them that it doesn't matter and they flow well so it's fine.
>>750222465I’m not an LA cokewhore yet so no.
>>750222237less of a jam, but did you hear my magnum opus?https://gofile.io/d/Uc7UjGj5
>>750222526>theres anons who can do different voices and sound like different people>then theres kraz and CGA who sound exactly the same
>>750221582ThisThe /v/ edited Mario and Minecraft movies suck hard because of the namefagging front and center, not to mention the comments section being like a normie twitch stream/discord channel
>>750222565what are you saying what are the lyrics
>>750222465I thought crystal was the expensive one
>>750222565You should pan them out so it's possible to hear what's going on.
>>750222526I'm sure you can point them out then.
>>750222748Coke takes so much more work to make than meth.
>>750222748you have to actually make coke on the spot and it doesn't last long
Crack is like temu coke right?
>>750221029>that's why uhhh the rule is thatt uhhh a singer can only sing one lyric version of a source songthat's not a rule. several anons even said otherwise when this was brought up.
>>750222770i don't want that
>>750223097it's another discouragement psyop from los guardianes
>>750223097people can say anything
>>750223232where is this rule written then?
>>750223260here >>750221029
>>750221408I am Anonymous
>>750223260There are only 3 rulesno repeated songsget your vocals in by the 15th (editing can happen after no matter who tells you otherwise)Let it go, Prince Ali, and A Girl Worth Fighting for are banned for reasons that keep being funnier every year it goes on.
>>750223557(by the way, why are some songs like age of aggression "disputed" when I've seen them in the albums and they should be full taken?)
>>750223557Let It Go being banned is funny. The other two are banned because they were done already.
>>750223074Crack is the bottom of the barrel waste leftover from coke production
A quick collage I threw together of all musical albums, if anyone's interested
>>750223697I thought it was just coke you added baking soda to>t. white boy never done drugs
>>750223557And the new rule starting this year:Ed Sheeran songs are banned because FREE PALESTINE
>>750223698Make a tier list maker with these
>>750223698might be cool with some text in the black space, like "/v/ The Musical" and maybe list the starting year to current year, but nice to see them laid out like that
>>750223870No, coke you add baking soda to is just coke
>>750223601again, i didn't have anyone else to ask in the off-season but still wanted to place a warning there. ur-example is the 99 Problems/One Step Closer mashup someone made a parody of long ago that should preclude using both songs. you might be able to make a case for it but "disputed" is as close to "completed" as you can get so might as well not.
>musical happens on the same weekend i have my classesfuuuuuck i will probably miss kung pow unless the songs somehow last like, 16ish hours
>>750224186well, no, I'm talking about "Age of Shitposting" and "garett master thief" which are both on the albums.
>>750224219They basically will.
>>750224219Who cares about kung pow
>>750224319iirc Skyrim had two extremely similar (identical?) songs that were both parodied in vtm2, though one was omitted or put on DLC. either way the song is so similar you'd have a hard time arguing it's a reprise or anything like that. Secret Agent Man is completed in most other spots, it's just that Devo's cover versions are usually weird enough that some years ago you might have been able to convince everyone it's not the same song anymore. that sentiment's changed sincethen though so now it's completed.
>>750224634>come to think of it, it's been ages since i tagged them like that, let's have fresh lookyeah i switched them all to completed
>>750224418yikes anon...
>>750224219>>750224418You fuckers know the rule
I like what I'm working with so far. I think using the UI bar for subtitles looks nice. I tried turning her green but it was ugly as fuck so I like the idea of keeping her fairly regular because the singer did a great job following the original, so the video matches nicely. Perhaps there's something else I could put in there visual-gag wise? Otherwise it's looking pretty reasonable, perhaps if it's not too late I could get it to a slightly better state people would be happy with it alongside the higher effort videos this year so the section isn't so light?https://youtu.be/aO1WCJnHNMg
>>750225612those overalls and shirt... I know some other character that uses them...
>>750225612brings me back nicely to the old school videos, I love it.
>>750225740did you end up going to that minion parade or whatever or would they not let you in without a kid
>>750225805I meant sneed
>>750225758thank you!>>750225846that's why I gave her the sneed hat! it helps the lyrics reference sneed, I need to keep the sneedtriot blood alive
>>750225612This genuinely looks great and is just as high effort as my video. Thank you for videofagging.
>>750225612is pirating games as easy as it was ten years ago? I kinda stopped once I got a job since it's a good one.
>>750224418bruh
>>750226245It's even easier kek. I pirate everything then buy games I want to financially support after I play them. Examples of games I bought the last few months after finishing them via piracy>Minishoot' Adventures>nocturne>Yomawari 3
>>750226245it's super easy at least if you're slightly computer literate. you have to avoid malicious sites but it's the sort of thing where once you have one you trust, you're pretty much good to go.
>>750226245I mean, it's easier than it was 15 years ago because you'd actually have to worry about malware in the torrents.

Woot katzchen updated mix link is broken. it's dlc and this link is fresh and probably the right onehttps://gofile.io/d/vi4TRBXI
>>750226640>not the videohttps://youtu.be/eJAWGjnT-_A
>>750226910I was kicking myself for not doing that kek
>mfw working on 25.10 and 26.10>shift ends 1.5 hours before the musical>next shift starts 12.5 hours into the streamfml, but then again, sleeping is for pussies. I'm just glad both songs I've written were put in the middle albumsAlso just finished ME3 for the first time, kinda sucked at some points. Citadel DLC was so fucking weird to play with its' wacky xd shit - I don't even know if I want to touch Andromeda, I feel like there's gonna be a lot of writing like this there.
>>750227148MS3 is a weird gsme, in some respects I like it for its polish but the story is so disappiointing you really wonder "what are you thinking?"
Thoughts?
>>750227532It looks so much worse in a screenshot jesus fucking christ AHHHHHHHHHHH
>>750227532Can you invert the current line colors?
>>750227532hard to read highlighted portion
>>750227532the black on orange is ugly and will be impossible to read when bitcrushed because the 2 colors will blur with each other and the background. the older way of just using 1 color to highlight worked fine.the line spacing is perfect.
>>750225612Please do submit it as a video, it's good. We could use more videofags, and don't for a second think it's bad to do something that isn't super high effort. It would be wonderful if we were closer to the early years where we could actually see double digit videos, but that only happens if people lower the barrier from "fully animated unique video" again.
>>750227532SHIT! can we get old streamfag back please?
>>750227148ME3 was fantastic for the first like 80% of the first playthrough. The ending sucks, and replaying it with different choices shattered the illusion. I thought it was really cool that I had to fight Rachni because I didn't do genocide in ME1, but turns out that doesn't actually matter, if you kill the queen the Reapers just find some more eggs anwyay.The best part of ME3 is Tuchanka, because your actions actually matter there.
>>750227610>>750227628I'm not sure if this is what you meant, but I did some fucking around and I feel pretty good about this one.>>750227635The feedback that like everyone has given is to try and get an outline. If I don't get something passable I can easily just revert to what was there before do not worry.
>>750227957This does look much better. Now try it with 200 gifs on stream.
>>750227957that is much betterif you're the streamanon, thanks. is it to late to send you the song video posted earlier, and if not, should I send a google drive link with it to veethemusical gmail or is there a better place for that?
>>750228104that one is a bit harder for me to share to the thread because I can't just take a picture and locally it'll obviously be fine because there's no bitrate to respect. That said, my tests with this image seem fine actually.But obviously, no matter what I do there will come a point where we hit a limit, my hope is to just try and make that limit higher, and try to limit the damage done to the vitals.>>750228208UHHHH I don't really have an answer for you. But when in doubt, yeah you can just send to that musical email and they will probably get me what I need. Thank you for making a video.
>>750228501probably should have included the image retard.
>>750228551not enough ankha. looks good though
>>750228606ye just be aware that is not a bit-rated image. if you want to see what that looks like you can check the stream right now but don't tell anybody.
>>750228551Huh, both ankhas and text lose alpha, shouldnt it be ankha alone?
>>750227957That is exactly what I wanted to! Thank you!
>>750228798So this kinda goes to how I am accomplishing some of what I am doing.To peel back the curtain a bit:What I'm doing is essentially I have 5 or so musicbee's in OBS and I just crop to the areas we care about. Those cropped ones are higher layers that have *some* opacity, (easily modifiable) and then later on down there's a base one that is fully opaque. I def need to tweak it a little bit but DESU I can do that DURING the stream.I'm far more concerned with the Musicbee shit because that stuff is far more visible for me to change (theatre mode changes only occur when you exit and re-enter it because FUCK me)
Update for the Confrontation song art because the top of the tie was a little too small and it was REALLY bugging me. No more updates I promise. New drive link as well
looking forward to a WHOLESOME ENDING to year 14.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeEcDtjJEN0
>>750228979Can you make the lyrics have full opacity but being a layer below the dancing gifs? It should still give the impression of them being going behind the text.It's hard to read both lyrics and the highlighted lyrics when they overlap with a gif
>>750228996Should we have some thing showing AI on the Hyde?
>>750229381Good idea, replace the ? with an asterisk like claude
>>750228551Yeah can the text just be full opacity? Dancing gifs shouldn't impact readability please.
i hope you guys are ready with your ai songs for the secret tenth album after the movie.

>>750229431how about this then
>>750229919looks Kino thanks so much!
>>750229335>>750229496I don't have THAT level of fidelity, at least not without spending a really large amount of time. And even then because there isn't like a "standard" for how people were doing lyrics (like length of a line and such) I would still struggle with some of it.I can change the opacity, and if people don't like it I can just make it 100 and lyrics will just be 100% protected.
>>750230028I had an idea to do this while making it but I was worried it wouldn't be obvious enough that the bit on the right is actually a head
>>750230068Alright, just be ready to make the lyrics 100 opacity cause it will get very hard to read when the gifs start piling in
>>750230334Yeah I'm prepared to touch several things based on how things go.Would anons appreciate the twitch extension emote stuff? stuff like FFZ/BTTV emotes?
Going though my songs on the Finished sheet right now. For Perfect Village, I see there was a "Trimmed" version added, but I don't think the last mix I posted actually needed one unless I'm mistaken? In addition at the very end of the new "trimmed" version there's an audio error where it plays the last line again, so I don't notice any difference in the mixes beyond the new one having an added error
>>750229798I'm imagining an alternative universe where /pol/ the musical comes out in March and our thing comes out in October. Might have been interesting.
>>750230701Not on screen, that should be a curated experience.
>>750231278Yes, I more mean enabling it in the chat. I was thinking maybe we could enable some emotes based on songs (the easy example being a dancing ankha emote in the chat) etc.

Ok so some timed lyrics have timings that were not properly formatted. I would GREATLY appreciate it if people could go through some and check and then also please tell us which ones you've fixed.This was in rugrat.lrcThank you anons.
>>750232190not sure how good of an idea this is, it inevitably results in spam of "gay!' on whatever songs the ads line up on and reports on the twitch stream, doesn't it?that said, if we want ads, I think it's only right we one/a few of the best album arts and then put some flashy "/v/ the musical is streaming live RIGHT NOW" layered on it or something.
>>750232561this is probably because there wasn't a space between the ] and ( in rentry and it was formatted as a link
>>750232561yeah the problem there is that they didn't put a space on the parenthesis. the lines are technically there but treated as links, whoever posted it can quickly fix by adding a space on each blue line and otherwise we gotta manually type these out into new rentries or .lrc files.>>750232601yes this
>>750232561Shit that was me. I'll fix it.
>>750232601Oh yeah that's definitely what happened.You don't need a space, you can put a \ and it'll work in rentry, but either way it does need to be fixed.
>>750205715>>750138620https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfCFk78Aiww&list=RDMfCFk78Aiww&start_radio=1I wrote recorded and did the cover art for this song. It had a very interesting premise so for the /v/h1 behind the autism documentary. You have to have a knowledge of both the conversation around the game based on the threads on release as well as have played the game during release. Normally I don't condone hype beast consumption of games but Silksong was genuinely a game that made me say like a fucking retard idiot>man I wish they still made games like this in current yearAct 1 and Act 2 and really tight and genuinely fucking great so in the first two verses I focused on the gripes of those who were either not good at games or genuinely fucking skill issuing themselves by not engaging with the game. When I played I played non stop on the steam deck the week of Halloween because I had vacation I literally only put it down to recharge my steamdeck. I was laughing at everyone whining about runbacks. Act 3 is really something you wouldn't find organically unless you played the dog shit out of the game it's also not nearly as good as act 1/2 so I made sure the third verse was a DOG SHIT fucking trash heap compared to the first two verses/acts. Act 3 is all about people jumping on the hype train about hallow knight having never played it nor cared about the series to begin with. I actually saw people playing HK with cheat engine simply because they saw people talking about sinksonk coming out soon.I did have the joy of finding the naked hornet segment pretty late in act 2 while trying to do everything but I got pissed when I found out after the fact someone made a shimapan mod for hornet it may have been AI edit. So I made this cover for the track. I spent like 40 minutes tracing migu with a fat ass and then drawing hornet over it. The real time and effort went into the folds to accentuate the breasts and cloak.
>>750232561>>750232679Please post all your fixes in the new column on the temp sheet
>>750232769hey buddy i think you got the wrong year, 2025 is 12 months down
>>750232785nta but I will personally do a pass on albums starting on the last album to try and catch a few of these. ideally someone can start at the top and also check some albums. they should be easy to spot when there are blue times instead of black text for some lines. I'm guessing 99% will be fine because the issues will pop up specifically if the parenthesis wasn't spaced out.

"Acronym's Bad" has a blank lyric before a musical break, not sure if you need to do that.
nta but this is actually smart and I do it sometimes. what it means is that no lyric will be highlighted for the 30 seconds of what I'm assuming is an instrumental break here. otherwise it stays on the lyric that ended that entire time, which is fine too but it's prettier this way for long breaks.

>>750233484all of the songs, or just all of an album or two? I can check more if they're still needed.
>>750233515All of them.
>>750233568yer a machine anon. Bless.
>>750232769Threads had literally gigantic assgaping feel raping shitpost arguments about lace and hornet being fucked by a million bugs so of course I had to make a few bars about that. If you read the lyrics and look at the archived threads you can trace basically an entire blind playthrough. My playing on the deck even became a verse as I referenced others whining about drawing hornet off model. hornet fags were torn between drawing her with giant breasts as a woman in a black vinyl suit or yogapants fabric and literally a funny stick bug with her mask.>Double cup C's, had to put 'em her chest>Got a 'ick on 'eck, panties on HornetThere was a pretty big patch in which they reduced environmental damage from two masks to one mask of damage and that ass shattered trillions of anons into saying who did or did not beat the game >L's piled up, I was mining that salt>2 masks of damage, progress coming to a halt>Only 18 days, had to patch it too mean>If you couldn't do it then well you didn't beat the gameif you were in the threads the saltmine was hilarious. this was when sinksonk hype was at an all time peak and people were uploading their girlfriends beating bosses.I started drinking so I'm not locking in on some of the other subtleties of the track but damn yall should play not the song but silksong it's really fucking good. I used the word schmoove 9 times in song because the one thing those silly Australians nailed the player controls having meaning up until the very last second. Every outcome is entirely deterministic on the player you control everything up until the interaction occurs making the game feel absolutely rewarding up until you fuck up your timing or input. The game is also super rewarding to play with a bunch of build variety and tools crests and play styles. It's literally what if darksouls 2 was 2d and not ass shit to play. but darksouls 2 is a song in and of itself I've been trying to work on getting ready for the musical.
I was doing it wrong, I'll have fixed lyrics up SOON tour coming soon
>>750233484You're doing it wrong. The issue is that Rentry thinks the line should be a hyperlink, so it hides whatever's in the paranthesis.>[01:21.66]With each fact you’re telling>01:28.17should be >[01:21.66]With each fact you’re telling>01:28.17[01:28.17] (Boing, boing!)You need to find the right lines from the original lyrics, not just fix the timestamp.The lyrics tutorial should really add a big line about how you need to put a \ before paranthesis.
>>750233930>You need to find the right lines from the original lyrics, not just fix the timestamp.for the record you can just click edit, add the spaces on the blue lines, then copy the whole thing and paste it into a new rentry.

>>750234054Oh that is much easier.
>>750233930>The lyrics tutorial should really add a big line about how you need to put a \ before paranthesis.yeah I'll adjust it next year to specify this, it's in the video tutorial but it should be in the plain text directly too
Just finished going through the new mixes, posting a list of songs that are different in the album order tab, just so it's noted. From double checking the last 2 threads I believe I have the accurate links from the finished tab. Sheetfags were exceptional this year.>>750230756directly link me the final version, it's up to you
Also terrible terrible news everyone. Some of my threads that I have been keeping open 404'd :,(
>>750234275List of updated mixes that are different in the album order tab, probably doesn't matter>/v/ the Vidya's Twilight>Bust Unions>Character Customization>Doomgyt us Coming!!!!>Fuzzy>Games Aren't Forever>Hope to See You There>Howard Man>I Hate Video Games (Yes All of Them)>Mecha Chameleon>Mewgenics!>On The Threads Where (You) Post>Pay>PC>Perfect Village>Physical>Post Something Vaguely>Rapist Man>Schizo's Board>That's so Ravenous>Too Gay To Pay>Voice Chat
>>750234065Fixed rugrat and put the lrc file in the new fixed column (there was one there already but it had the same issue, so. all good now)
>>750234275Here's the last mix I did: https://files.catbox.moe/kroev3.flacThen the updated one in here which has the error at the end: https://gofile.io/d/lZYjSYKjI'm guessing it was done to remove UVR artifacts and the error slipped in? Since it's too late for another mix I guess I'd prefer mine because of that issue
some of the final order songs (and temp) don't have the art, like Porn Game Girl Magic.
>>750234386tymy shitty gofiles in the fixed col were not actually fixed but I'm doing some more work to make sure there aren't more broken ones. So I'd appreciate if others fixed them RQ
>>750230756>>750234275>>750234412I trimmed ~70ms from the start for a perfect transition from the previous song: https://gofile.io/d/8CClF45YGood job catching that error, I was using it for timing the ending silence and forgot to mute it. Here's the correct file to use:https://gofile.io/d/BGTIGfJx
>>750234641Oh cool, thanks. Sounds good to me, can use this one then
Followin Stinklines is not timed, I understand it is DLC but if someone cares, go do it
That is Glang needs to be fixed
alright if I ignore DLC glang should be the only other one. (it evaded my human run through because I tried to do my shitty "fix" yesterday when I saw it).

Hopefully you guys can fix those because I am gettin real tired.ALSO rugrat is kinda sick I wasn't super into the vocaloid stuff last time I think but I think you guys cooked with this one.
I'm stroking my shit for tomorrow imma be hungover tomorrow and start drinking again tomorrow. Who else got they penis on they shit and strokin they shit and listening to shit with they ears on they shit while they be penishearing they shit?
>>750235067Forgot to move Schizo's Board, but that's also correct on the sheet (in fact all cells link to the same file).
we could use some more bumps by sane humans with unrotten souls at a fast pace tonight, I'd like to get a good OP so /v/ actually realizes we have the stream upcoming.
>>750235278I can complain about snacks or coachpost again if that helps.
>>750235383sure, coachpost about how the stream is gonna be like way too long or at an inconvenient time for coach or whatever idfc
Oh btw compiler if you got time you should run the files through SoX and downsample everything to 16 bit 44.1k. 24bit is completely unnecessary for listening. Note this has to be done early in the process because it strips album art for some reason.Speaking of album art, ideally what you embed in the files should be compressed 1000x1000 JPEGs, not full sized PNGs. That can easily save several MB per file. No idea if you already do this, I did not check.
>>750235437yea I smash the art down, but I really don't think I have what it takes to do the other thing :(
>>750235437begging for replaygain too, my ears desire consistent audio
>>750232769been digging this one since i did the lyrics timing before last year's stream. not so much the weird third part which i figured was just not up my alley but now i know it was by design. still have the game cued to play but man i have so many fucking videogames
>>750235437It's pretty simple, just install SoX, save this bat file in the SoX folder, select all the songs, and drag them on top of the file. But if you don't have the time I understand.https://gofile.io/d/B96mUdey
>>750235697Please play sinksong once I sober up I swear I could write so much more. This song had like 4 iterations I was rotating and pulled and popped the best of the four into the final track
>>750233403thanks, i usually put those in either for the long pauses or if it's funny or whatever. like if the entire song goes dead silent for 2 seconds it's like turning the lights off on top of that.
>>750235160that's the spirit!
ATTENTION VIDEOFAGS. tl;dr:>email your video file (not link) to veethemusical@gmail.com>hardcode subtitles for the stream If you want your video played on stream, please send your video files (in high quality if possible) to veethemusical@gmail.com.Please hardcore/bake in subtitles, or let me know whether you're okay with me baking in simple subtitles at the bottom just for the stream. If you plan to upload to YouTube, no problem, but YT compresses video quality, so I prefer to have the high quality files for the stream.Videos made between last musical and now are acceptable, for songs old and new, whether for a song this year or for a song from thirteen years back.I can't wait for the stream!I hope to include the Demon Lord video and the Anon goes on /v/ animatic (Konbini).
>>750235703Meant for >>750235557
>>750236205Hey an update I'm the streamer they actually don't have to hardcode them, a sub track will work as well. Either way is fine, but people might find it more convenient to do the track
>>750236465Okay awesome! What file extension works for the sub track?
>>750236574I actually don't know as far as I know they're sorta baked into the file itself at least that's how it works for anime
>>750236574Not the streamer but generally best practice in the torrent tracker scene is the movie and .srt subtitles in an .mkv container. If you wanna be fancy you can use .ass but fancy subtitles takes time we do not have.
my final tracks, minus ManlyTears. I'll get the albums done first. and thanks anon for telling me to trim the silencehttps://gofile.io/d/7889aKrC>>750234641got this
>>750236804I'm working on the subtitles rn, should have a zip for you in 10-20 minutes.
>>750236704there are actually many good converters online to turn our .lrc timed lyrics into .srt files too btw, you just need to account for if the video is different than the basic audio file timing.
>>750236804great job this year. it sounds like we didn't give you enough work though, it's 600 songs next year.
>>750236839I'm glad there's been less for me to do, not because lazy but this is something where more cooks in the kitchen is really great and helpful. Thanks a lot, and I hope no one got too stressed out with stuff.
>>750236975next year i'm for real bringing back the editor's special so sorting can begin asap
>>750237015we just gotta try to organize from the start next year desu. I'm going to make a template for the sheet, do we want the death battle column to the right of finished, basically just replacing the new mixes since we only need that post-deadline?>>750237236mwahahaha
>>750237276i want songs on the finished tab in the order they were finished. deathbattles however... they used to get a comment on the title to the further left and a link to the challenger somewhere in the misc/vocals section. this time everyone made a seperate row for a song even if it was already in finished. i think it'd be a good idea to either make the colored song title background a different shade or just lift all of them to the top so nothing goes missing.
>>750237276Just so you know, I also plan on trying to make a bunch of tweaks And maybe some automations to the spreadsheet in case that impacts your desire to do what you are doing.
i like the proposal i heard earlier that everyone should be required to make their own editor's special before the deadline so we don't have 3-4 days where editors slowly work their way through rough takes that don't sync up to their instrumentals.
>>750237276number column number column number column number column number column and yeah that sounds right. a deathbattle column would be visually helpful>>750237493>i want songs on the finished tab in the order they were finishednumber column number column number column number column number column
>>750237552oh I think I know who you are, you can handle that because you'll be smarter than me about it. my plan was just to have a template of the current one with a couple small adjustments and a note reminding myself about the stuff we should improve on from day 1 next year. just consider >>750237493 when looking at it please, if it doesn't work for compilation it's pointless after all.
>>750237665it solves a lot of issues, like missing bit parts get caught before the deadline instead of a week after.>>750237552oh yeah and numbered columns are optionally okish I guess
>>750237665a "Demo" column next to the title in General Audio Edits, and the vocals continue to go in the vocal section. so the Demo section has to be vocals + instrumental. that would also help editors get an easy look at what they're working with>>750237767number column
I guess I'll talk about at least one of the things I want to do:I want when something is submitted to the edit sheet, for us to have "levels" of editing that it already has ranging from like NONE to "this just needs to be mastered (level adjustments etc.). Some other tags I'd want are "multiple singers" "instrumental could be improved" you get the idea. I want editors to have an idea of what they are getting in to before they start.I also want to color code at least a cell based on some of these things.There's like a TON more that I want to do with the sheet now that I've got a way better head on my shoulders but I don't want to dump some huge walls and I need to plan it out a bit more
>>750237015Here's the zip: https://gofile.io/d/ezj4c4P6They were mostly grabbed from the sheet last night. I went through and got the fixes on the sheet from earlier today:>That Is Gllang :D>rugrat>~ (Tilde) Key Console>Keine's Expanding Class>Unlisted (How could this happen, Sony)Also fixed the timing for On the Threads Where (You) Post and Character Customization because I trimmed silence from the start.You might have to do the same for your songs if you cut anything from the beginning.
>>750238019desu this is what the notes are for, people are just too lazy to do it. a coded system might help with that
>>750238165The problem I have with the notes is they're fucking annoying sometimes. Hover over a gofile and the note gets covered up, some people are just joking in them etc. Also sometimes they're like SUPER far to the right and scrolling sideways fucking SUCKS.Bitches love color coding (it's me, I am the bitch).
btw guys check out this fuckin black magic I invented here
>>750238019A dropdown box is limiting, but several columns where you can mark stuff could be very useful.>>750237276I want a stricter deadline next year so I'm not mixing new shit on the 21st. >>750237236Unironically based.
>>750238019it's worth a try. assuming anons use it correctly. which they won't, but not for any malicious reason. lotta anons who show up and sing (god bless 'em) don't know about that stuff and how much work they're passing on. worth a shot tho, as long as there are comment fields left for someone who doesn't know the terms and wanna throw some ideas out still.
>>750238357>as long as there are comment fields left for someone who doesn't know the terms and wanna throw some ideas out still.Trust me, I'm a big COMMENTS field enjoyer, I wouldn't get rid of it.
>>750238284looks satanic to me
>>750238284I like number columns but they don't solve the issue of people adding their death battle on a new line.
>>750238284
>>750238356>I want a stricter deadline next year so I'm not mixing new shit on the 21st.same honestly, the past few years people have grown increasingly complacent with the mindset of "fuck the editors, they have to edit what we leave for them either way, just dump raw audio and ignore it after that". we do not need 9 albums of songs after nearly a month and a half of work, we're supposed to be making stuff 1 month. people can't act in good faith and accept "get done by the 15th, and if there's little edits left to do we can accept that", we can't have the rule bends there anymore. it should be something like "if it's not edited the end of the 17th, it'd not getting edited and is dlc for next year" at the most lenient.
>>750238165I agree with anon and I'll add that notes don't stand out and they'll have literally anything written in them, sometimes not useful.
>>750238495not any of these niggas but in my opinion just make the 15th a hard limit, force writefags or singfags to edit their own stuff and do it on time otherwise their effort is wasted
>>750238284how did he do that
>>750238495Go back to hard deadline at midnight the 16th Howland Island and if it's not finished by then it's DLC. I still remember the struggle to get everything done in time back in Year VII and the satisfaction of making it.I'm open to minor mix adjustments past deadline but everything should be at least listenable by deadline.
>>75023864715th used to be the hard limit, the issue there is we just go back to people getting fucked on missing 1 thing. it's pretty reasonable to at least have it be "songs done by 15th, after that all you can do is edit them and don't expect other people to edit for you if you can't convince them to, you're not owed a post-deadline editor". that accounts for people like K, who always has a song "done" on the 15th, it's just not fully edited yet, but doesn't let people just dump 8 raw audio files on editfag and say "good luck, see you on stream day".
do you guys think a lot of problems would be solved if singfags always edited their own songs instead of relying on editfags
>>750238739>go back to people getting fucked on missing 1 thingSo be it, drop your shit earlier if you want to give anons a chance of catching stuff you missed
>>750238742no, but I do think learning to edit makes for better singfags
i love that the musical is currently healthy enough that we can stand to be stricter even if it means a lower total song number. that's been a huge complex for niggas ever since the drop from VI.
>>750238742There are pros and cons, but obviously this would need to be "an editor isn't owed to you". make it the same as how written songs aren't guaranteed to be sung, if no editor wants it finished then you better edit it yourself the way I ALWAYS SING MY OWN SONGSPROs>vastly less stress because less shit to deal with>less infighting on edit DBs, ect>much less frantic post-season bullshit to handle>some people will actually finally learn to edit>less likely to have wasted time on like 3 good editors all doing "Post Something Vaguely" mixes while 20 other songs sit on the sheet>a singfag that can edit is just a better singfag because they know what is fixable and what isn't and aren't submitting impossible to time stuffCONs>vastly less songs (very minor con desu, we are at critical mass)>the songs we get will likely be a little worse on average, at least for a year or two>many people still won't edit and will just leave entirely instead>higher skill ceiling to even join realistically>more tech/money required to realistically join, can't just sing into your phone in a recorder app
>>750238979vi was.... an unhealthy year in so many ways. if we never have another year like that again, nothing could make me happier.
That's an interesting and good conversation to have, yes yes, HOWEVER
>>750238979Year VI is 13:42:58, we really don't need to replicate that.Year XIV is ~12:33 (not accounting for recent silence trims). I wouldn't mind it being shorter.Also Fairy Poke Song is a fucking banger.
>>750239191YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOsorry but I'm still a demoncrawl guy, I need them bells and whistles. when I get the no flag modifier on a level I cry, you are a stronger man than me
>>750239316We are all brothers under the sunglasses wearing sun
SO WE WILL RISE ABOVEIN A WORLD WHERE EVIL IS REPLACED BY LOVE ANDWE WON'T REGRET ITEVEN IF WE LOSE THIS FIGHTWE WILL EMERGE INTO THE LIGHT AGAINWE HAVE THE WINGS TO RISE
>>750239248>Also Fairy Poke Song is a fucking banger.i love that one too. we have so many bangers, it's a very strong year. only got spoiled on so many of them so i'm looking forward to the stream very much. great job to each and every one of you, you are loved.
>>750239108>the songs we get will likely be a little worse on average, at least for a year or twoProbably yes, but it will still be allowed to post their raws for songs that need that extra touch, you should also post your own mix (or at the very least a demo) alongside it.I don't want people to edit every song they sing, I do actually enjoy mixing or I wouldn't be doing it. Songs like Groove and EIGHT BEARS are super fun to work on. What really sucks is being expected to fix bad takes instead of the singer doing more takes until they're happy with their performance.>higher skill ceiling to even join realisticallyIt's not hard to slap your vocals and an instrumental into Audacity, like most people used to do.
Just confirming the album order and names>CD1 /v/ the Musical and Other Vidya Funk [Vidya 1]>CD2 Ban [Board Culture 1]>CD3 Swords That Will Save [Vidya 2]>CD4 Domesticated Consumer [Industry]>CD5 Grind [Vidya 3]>CD6 Breakfast in the Vidya [Platforms/Misc]>CD7 The Toad is Poked [Vidya 4]>CD8 'tism and Jizzing [Board Culture 2]>CD9 Friendslop [Vidya 5]>DLC Editor's Special
>>750239540Correct.Btw I don't know if the DLC separation in the lyrics zip is 100% correct. The files in the Death Battles folder belong there, but some of the files in the other two could be wrong.
>>750239513no yeah you're right, but they're still going to scare some people even with a low entry bar. I agree we need to come to a united front on a deadline adjustment for next year, it's just that it will get some people butthurt.>>750239540there might be a better label than platforms/misc, I labelled it that so people wouldn't ask why there were so many not-platforms songs on the platforms album. past that this seems right.
>>750239513>I don't want people to edit every song they singReally? I did that this year because I assumed it would free up more time for the editfags to edit songs that really needed it
>>750239693they mean overall, they still like having songs to edit too, but not 100+ of them without a real choice. if you can and don't hate it then it's helpful to do your edits (and maybe others too)
>>750239770Makes sense, makes sense
>>750239513>I don't want people to edit every song they sing, I do actually enjoy mixing or I wouldn't be doing it.for people like me, who appreciate what you do endlessly, could you help me understand what you enjoy, what you don't enjoy? more? When I make the spreadsheet changes that I want to do, I will be asking you for a lot of input since you obviously know the most about editing
>>750239693I want you to do most of them if you can but I might ask for raws if I see a song I really want to do.>>750239770Yeah this. I did 31 songs this year, and could probably have done a few more if I didn't spend so much time on Rance. Though it also helped to not have to do songs I didn't want to work on, so thanks to everyone else who tackled the General Edits sheet.As was mentioned earlier, another benefit of needing to post a mixed demo of your take is you can immediately tell if something isn't working and you should try again. It's a lot more fun to mix if I don't have to spend a lot of time editing your timing or pitch.
>>750239942>I did 31 songs this yearI'm assuming this isn't even accounting for a bunch of little "masters" you did, assuming that was you and not someone else?
>>750239982Yeah, but those take like 30 seconds each so they're no big deal thought it would be better if people didn't leave 15 seconds of silence at the end of their final mix.
>>750239942Rance fucking kicks ass too, it's based that you got to sink time into something that sick. I'm still in awe parts of it are live instruments.
>>750239942>I did 31 songs this yearOof, I barely did 10, counting mixes and stuff I wroteThough I did get sick and was on vacation throughout a good half of it. Hope I'll be more fortunate next time.
>>750239942>It's a lot more fun to mix if I don't have to spend a lot of time editing your timing or pitch.the joke's on you there, my timing is "I karaoke sing the track a couple times and pick the best ones" and my pitch is the natural one god gave me. fuck maybe I should learn to sing before next year.
>>750240058Thanks! Well, "live" is a stretched, they're heavily edited recordings, but I'm happy I did it rather than just doing MIDI. I did use my brand new guitar for it which was perfect timing because this song is perfect for a 7 string and I didn't have that before, so is it fair to add $750 to the musical budget?>>750240143Learning to sing is never a bad idea.
>>750240386>so is it fair to add $750 to the musical budget?sure, add it to K's tab
I propose we move on from calling this "/v/ The Musical XIV". We should use a proper abbreviation of all the albums. "VtMusAoVFunBanSwoTWiSaDoCoGriBreakitVisTToaiP'TsmJiFrieSlo"(Pronounced Vee-Tee-Mus Auvuffunn Bahnswotweesa Doko Grib Re-Uckit Vist-Toeyip'it SmudgiFree-ehSlo)
>>750240386>"live" is a stretched, they're heavily edited recordingsyeah of course lol. though now that I think about it getting on a live mic to shred a guitar over kung pow break would be fucking funny too
just 48 more posts until we can make a new op with a timer in it, so...I think gachas suck and no songs should be sang about them because they aren't videogames they are slot machines. If you sing songs about gachas that aren't making fun of them your song is bad and you should feel bad
>>750240596isn't this how swedish people name things
>>750240686This, but umabros get a pass because they're always so friendly :)
>>750239428It's my personal GOTY
speaking of, is the anon that made these the past few years around this year? I don't know shit about image editing but we had one for the OP last year
>>750240745They act friendly to get buddy buddy with you and throw you off from remembering they don't play videogames. It's a trick, don't fall for it
>>750240143practice active listening, too. I sometimes have a long commute so I'll often play the same new songs a ton until I can pick out all the different parts
>>750239857Hmm, what makes mixing fun? I think there are a few elements.>the singer is goodIf I can spend 5 minutes and get a great mix, life is good.>I like the original songI see an unclaimed metal song I know and the singer is decent? I'm mixing that. Same for very few pop songs.>I have stems for itIt's very beneficial to be able to adjust the instruments separately. And if I manage to post the stems before anyone sings it, the singer may use the included vocal stem to do harmonies. More people should use the vinst database desu.>I get to be creativeWith Groove I could go ham with Rhythm Heaven sound effects, which was fun.>I learn something new/get a puzzle to figure outIt's fun to do vocal effects like in Discord and Shitposter Guy, figuring out how the original artist did it and replicating it.>It's not tediousMixing is usually a lot more fun than editing. Though I will sometimes do tedious shit if I know the end product will be great, like mixing GIMME MOAR a few years ago with its 120+ tracks. Pop production is wild.
>>750240745oh, you!!!! that reminds me, did you bring your credit card? can I borrow it real quick?
>>750240790Honestly I REALLY want to do a choir cover of Song of Wings, it'd go hard but I couldn't figure out a parody topic in time
>>750240857Saving this tytyty
>>750240596https://files.catbox.moe/5trsiv.mp4
>>750240962oh yeah that's swedish
>>750240871D-did you s-say c-c-c-choir....?
>>750241060yeaahhhhh, about that... I'm gonna need 20 takes, actually make it 40 for panning...
>>750241101I'd probably be willing for to do like 40 takes for Song of Wings for me alone desu
>>750240857>More people should use the vinst database desu.But to do that I need to send an email and that sounds like way too much effort.
looks like we don't have a specific image to use for the next OP, any recs? maybe just the #1 album vote-wise? or a song art we didn't use yet that's especially kino?
>>750240686Just for that I'm writing a song about old people and slot machines next year
>>750241184You can just post [VINST] in the thread and someone will notice it.
>>750241212Honestly I think the "Dawn of the last day" image is the better one to grab attention of random anons. Obviously add the countdown and twitch adress
>>750240686Shit. I could totally make a parody of that baldis basics song but about gacha.
>>750241101Depending on whether I can fit two different octaves of it in my range and how many harmonies you've got, I could get you up to like 12 of them by myself.
>>750241314very reasonable take, I like avoiding having to play favorites
>>750241314the issue with this is that it should have been used for this OP if it wasn't fucked, not the one like 14 hours before the stream... but eh, close enough.
>>750241431Just cross the word dawn and 24 hours and replace them with the proper ones idk
>>750241431>>750241515I could just use this, it is gonna be barely over 12
>>750241230I want to be one of those old people so bad, why do I have to wait

>>750242164can we have a link in the op image like that, or should it say something like "link in thread?"
>>750242164Alright /v/. Be honest. Rate every character from each album art based on which ones you would fuck.
>>750242317id fuck the cat in the friendslop image
>>750242317i WANT to IMPREGNATE samus ARAN
>>750242236That does work a lot better.>>750242258Last year's OP had it but I made it smaller.
>>750242317I'd do the Fairies and Samus and that's it. In the butt exclusively, they cum from anal or not at all.
>>750242374make the link bigger please
>>750242317I've mostly avoided drawing sexy girls for album covers but I think I might stray from that next year. Gotta find something suitable tho
>>750242317I need to violently rape PS5-chan
I'll make a post for it after the stream too, but it's gonna be a crazy hectic thread and a crazy hectic me so I'm prepping it now. if you want to watch the VODs I have the shell for the playlist so you can bookmark it here:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeMXJDSxqK4kI haven't figured out how to pull VODs from the future yet, so assuming I get the copies from one of the 2 lovely people recording, they should start populating in that link on the 25th.
>>750242317I'd fuck the cats in the DLC image
>>750242440No. But the text did bother me a bit so I adjusted it.
>>750242357i'd fuck the cat on DLC
>>750242671who wouldn't
>>750238119okay, got it. will double check that lyrics and filenames match
Is anyone recording those "you're listening to /v/ the musical" type bits this year? It'd be neat to get them from multiple people, even cooler if none of them are singfags so we get more people involved. Nothing big, just a 3-8 second bit.
>>750242908If I knew we needed those I could have at LEAST recorded that. I'm fine with keeping my voice completely out of the musical.
