That's funny, I've always had the URL's in quotations and it's never caused problems before. I did type out the thread in Word at work, though, so I bet its infernal "smart" quotes screwed something up.

I'll leave 'em out in the future, since it's an easy way for typos to be introduced.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Ar tonelico II ~Sekai ni Hibiku Shoujotachi no Metafalica~ Original Soundtrack – Agni A strong start and some very nice parts in this song, with a few bare patches. Quite nice.

Climax Landers Original Soundtrack - Lao's Theme Some nice beats, but no real meat to back it up.

dodonpachi DAI-OU-JOU KE-TSU-I kisunajigokutachi ORIGINAL SOUND TRACK - DEFENSIVE LINE - Lurking in the Darkness (Stage4) An interesting and dark soundscape, this. The track doesn't quite capitalize on it, even if the mood is decent.

Giftpia Title Music + Nanashi-FM - The Grown-Up Game This song is definitely trying for a quirky vibe, but unfortunately it winds up being annoying due to the horrible quality of the vocals.

Legend of Heroes ~ Sora No Kiseki SC Original Soundtrack – Hamel Very subdued and ambient in style, and does a decent job of establishing mood.

Spyro the Dragon (Game Rip) - Dark Hollow Stewart Copeland is usually good in a pinch, though I've never heard his game work, only his movie and TV scores. The track has some innovative and quirky elements, but ultimately isn't as cohesive as I'd like, though is projects a good atmosphere.

Umihara Kawase (Game Rip) - Kawanabe Theme A happy-style song in the classic SNES-era style. It's not bad, but kind of samey in a crowded genre.

Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito Image Sound Track - Brilliant Marks of Heat Haze A nice piece with some good woodwind, string, and percussive work. The voices weren't the best accent (sounded like they were saying "fool") but the piece was nice overall.

A little bland this week, but nothing that stuck out as particularly bad.

The Point Spread
Ar Tonelico - 2 pts.
Spyro - 2 pts.
Heat Haze - 2 pts.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Well, Dr. Uzuki tabled his Odin Sphere nom indefinitely after the same arguments were invoked, so there's no real precedent that I can recall.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I'm still waiting for the tracks to be uploaded. I can put up a placeholder if you're really anxious though.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Well, I submitted a placeholder anyway, using links from the upload folder on the server. It seems to work for now.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
