Nominating this in tribute to the Wii internet services that shut down last month.

Album: Everybody Votes Channel (Game Rip)
Artist: Toshiyuki Sudo
Track Title: Menu
Year: 2007
Additional Info: I guess this isn't really a video game but hey Toshiyuki Sudo writes music for video games so let's call it an original work by a VGM composer

There's nowhere I can't reach.

MAN YOU BEAT ME TO THE TIME TRAX PROTOTYPE also propped for 50 Hz.

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

We've had stuff before from games that were never finished, including a nomination in this very thread, so I don't think that'd be a problem.

We could also call it an original composition by a VGM composer to cover the rest of the bases.

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

1 point: Aztec Adventure (Game Rip) - Forest
1 point: Konami Amusement Sounds '93... Autumn - Giociamo o calcio!
1 point: Ripple Dot Extra - Ripple Dot Zero (The Oxygen Plant, Pt. One)

Giociamo o calcio is so Konami arcade music. The only thing that would've made it more Konami is more orch hits.

I was speaking idiomatically.

p.s. nominate please, we've only got five (also vote)

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

**THE POWER OF WATER** · Local time: Aug 20, 2013, 11:25 PM

Well, guess I'll have to scrounge something up for the sixth slot.

1). [13] Ripple Dot Extra - Ripple Dot Zero (The Oxygen Plant, Pt. One)
2). [12] Monster Kingdom: Jewel Summoner (Game Rip) - Mountain Village: Hasi Maza
3). [11] The Trackering #4 - Chris & Rita
4). [8] Kyokugen Dasshutsu ADV Zennin Shibou Desu Soundtrack - Recreation

I dunno that this will really help, but this is really more of a question for people who aren't nominating, not people who are like me.

So, for people who aren't nominating: have you stopped nominating because you've run out of music, and would this help?

We did Chudah's Corner and Slightly Dark too, and yeah, we closed up shop at all three when we were getting 0 participants who didn't initially come from Gamingforce.

The only one of those three that's still active is STC, which is pretty much exactly the same place it was 5(?) years ago.

We had a Master System track in this batch, so don't sweat it. I'm pretty sure Draconis is trapped in a time warp somewhere in the '80s or early '90s.

However, whereas many of you at least appear knowledgeable with respect to some amount of musical theory and can discuss it within the context of your nominations, I suspect I would be completely unable to do so. It's shitty to know that your only contribution to discussion would be "this is pretty cool because I like it because I don't know why"

I can't really do much about this besides try to reassure you that most people don't really dissect pieces on theoretical grounds here, when they even comment at all. I think I somehow had the most theoretical commentary this week and all I did was talk about orchestra hits.

I'm positive I've also said "I like this but I have no idea why" on multiple occasions here.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The last updates I made were four days ago. Checked 'em out and everything seems fine.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
