Hey there, fellow youtubeite, I'm a fellow "video gamer" searching to widen my audience and grow into a fully-fledged community of my own. I do let's plays and they're extremely funny! Don't let the fact that I'm an overweight, pizza-faced scrub in a fedora who does nothing but crack sexist jokes and express my disdain to people who don' t support furries distract you - I'm a real wholesome guy and can appeal to a variety of markets, even the urban ones, dawg, which can't be said about most channels you find these days.

Private Message sent, my friend.

EDIT fuck, why is this top of the page

I'm on reach and now I remember how slow non anniversary movement speed is ugh and Boardwalk is a awful BTB map (bloom as well but everyone knows that).

When I go on break again we can do stuff that works for euro time zones! So, it's all good!

Also, how is the stream for you guys? I tripled the bitrate, and want to make sure it's not awful!

I understand what you both mean. Some times I get tired of writing just big themes that repeat themselves with extra layers and stuff like that and I write something that moves around more musically. This was one of those pieces where I was more interested in flexing my musical knowledge muscles and creating diversity with smooth, musical transitions within one cue. I appreciate the criticism though! I did try to unite it all with that four note motif that comes up at 0:15, 0:56, and 2:06 so it wasn't TOTALLY all over the map :)

Also, I don't use melodies that are pure arpeggios. If every note fits into the background chord, then there's no sense of tension and resolution within the melody. That's just my opinion though!

I completely understand, it's a nightmare for me to develop cohesive stuff that isn't just the same melody over and over again. Ruins was actually pretty good about it.

And, that's just me being dumb and not knowing which terms are what. I don't mean literal arpeggios, I mean those... quick consecutive stabs or "glisses" on a per-instrument basis. You're really good at building up "strums," I guess is what I'm saying.

I appreciate and love the gameplay and clips but I really prefer the more artistic, professionally edited montages. Like I'd rather rewatch Dutchys Reach Beta Montage or even Suddoths Twins H3 Dualtage.

I think the montages and their editing keeps getting better and better imo though. So newer, usually better to me.

Besides montages should be for entertainment and highlighting clips. If you really want a proper gauging of skill you should probably be watching pure gameplay.

Yea I can respect that, for me the most recent ones are hit or miss, mostly miss. Could be the games themselves doing it though.

Just finished HaloGAF Radio Episode 16. It will be out later tonight. It's a short one with the newer format. If you guys could let me know your thoughts on it I'd really appreciate it.

Ghazi, that last game was a total train wreck. Add in that those guys were total douchebags and I remembered why I don't try to play Halo competitively at all.

I'm not good enough to do it and unless I'm being carried by ExWife/Eugn there is no point for me to try.

Add me to need to be carried the only playlist I atleast care about my K/D is BTB which is 1.07 (shame griffball counts towards overall stats). They were just sat in one room with all of the power weapons and the oddball.

EDIT: AA's are an awful addition to halo, jetpack's everywhere on BTB boneyard no a pretty site.

Yeah, it's hard to compete with people who play the game that long and together. They obviously had a game plan and were communicating well while we ran around like headless chickens.

Anyway, I wasn't done I just ate lunch, so if anyone still wants to play let's do it!

Hey so when I was playing Spartan Assault I noticed Drones sound like Engineers. Also your gun starts shooting automatically when you exit turrets. Weird game. Pretty, but weird.

And damn I am surprised we haven't begun cloning Palmer yet because she is just God tier super hero in that game with her day saving actions. An army of smooth talking Sarah Palmers would win any war. Time for Chief to step aside, there is a new badass in town...
it should be the Arbiter :((((

Hope everyone enjoyed their holidays and returning to work/school wasn't too much of a shock. I'm struggling this morning returning to work, do not want to be here :(

Anyhow the survey hit 749 entries and I'll close it off shortly. For those who volunteered to help I'll send out the survey data today via PM, remember keep it close to your chest as we'll need some time to put the presentation together.
