Miles is presently setting to work on the subforums. Only administrators can create new partitions. Moderators lack this privelege.
I say start it Friday. People tend to have more free time on weekends and it'd be nice to begin strong while people have a moment to participate. It'll appear as though folks are involved and may entice others to follow suit. |

Yeah, Friday sounds good.

Monday. Graduation is this weekend.

QUESTION! Two actually. Will the brackets be put up in a staggered manner as was done in SAUS? Like, instead of all of A at once, the first pairings of A to H are put up? I'm guessing no if multiple thread makers are being employed.
Also, are we going to see a torrent at all, and if so, will it be up and active before the start of the contest?  |

Actually, delaying the contest start for a few days while we get a torrent running might be a REALLY GOOD IDEA in general. Not everyone only downloads songs from the threads/only the ones they like, Orion. Not bitching at you, just reminding.

How much time will be given to vote on first-round matchups? Me personally, I have a five-day vacation this week, weekend trip to relatives for Christmas the following weekend. Considering it's the holiday season and a lot of people are traveling, my case is probably not an isolated one.
So, a week for voting? |

I called for a torrentmaking volunteer awhile back; I have no idea how to do it, and it might not even be possible on OS X. Anyone know of a good FAQ on the subject?
As for voting, it'll be just like the BSC and BCC--each bracket will go up as a whole, slightly staggered against the others by two days. The SAUS method of doing the brackets was, frankly, weird and scary.

I sent you some info on creating a torrent; hopefully that will prove helpful.
Also, it would be nice to have as few thread starters as possible. The more people you have creating threads, the better the chances of someone not being responsible with starting theirs on time or messing up the formatting (which should be standardized, for the most part). I realize this means more work for the few who do create threads, but it would be nice.

Let's try this torrent thing then! I'll leave my computer on and seed for the next few days; let me know if there are any problems.

Not working for me. Maybe try starting a new torrent with some more trackers?

Just finished the download, but strangely neither of the files seems to work. I can open them with Winamp but there is no music at all.
[Edit] The non-mp3 files in the Extra folder are working though.

Yep, same here. None of the mp3 nominations seem to be working in any music player I throw at it.

Member 1865 Level 44.35 Mar 2006 |
That really doesn't make any sense at all. Of course, I'm at work at the moment, so I can't check it out until later, but the original files played just fine when I tested them after MP3gaining.
Best not get the torrent until the problem's resolved, then.

Member 122 Level 41.94 Mar 2006 |
Dude, you mp3gained them? For real? While I'm not going to speak for the folks that do actual albums, I highly doubt that all the stuff on OCR and related stuff has been as aggressively compressed as the mainstream stuff that spawned mp3gain in the first place.

There wasn't really much difference between the originals and the gained versions; I just did it as a matter of course, just like in SotW.
In other news, I found out what the problem was. It seems that the copy of the files that I had uploaded to my school server was somehow corrupted into silence; I have restored from my backup and will post a new torrent and re-upload the files tonight.
