@Zekira_Drake Anyways,you and aqua better stock up on PS brushes,namely Rune circles,clock motifs,white roses,that sorta thing
Here we go again *goes brush hunting* Any specifics I might need?
crystalsuicune
Pick up a marble texture too?A subtle one
Zekira
Crap I was scurrying around again for my options and... long story short: I can't do it on Paint.NET (yet) and I don't have a copy of PS anywhere, so...

asdkfnafasdlhusad aqua plzzz

GIMP,maybe?
IIRC there's a plugin to make GIMP support PS brushes

OK I'll look into it when I have time...

The base for the BG, I'll post the layout and any drawfaggotry needed later

betawatcher
@ Lokamp Thank you! Coincidentally the day I get this song is the day this song is shown on this week's Idolmaster episode... (Ironically I got into the anime cos somebody kept hating on it and I became curious :P)
crystalsuicune


Overall layout of the BG~

Floor:Runic circles everywhere.Make sure you add the two beneath
the two Kyoukis.The rest?Go nuts.Just don't make it too cluttered.
(I'm sure there's a way to make the circles horizontal…)
Make the circles glow light blue

Corners:Gears,cogs and roses.Them gears and cogs should be black.
As for the roses,it could either be white or light grey I guess

Pillars and Coat-of-arms:I'll be drawing those.Once I post 'em up,just
crop,resize,throw 'em in and apply a slight drop shadow

Words:Dark blue,glowing effect optional.As for the font…pick something
medievaly,but not too fancy.The font for Yuli in PnM or something similar?

The two Kyoukis:I'll be drawing them,obviously

Ah so that's what you were going for :D I'll try next week.
crystalsuicune


Hope it's crop-friendly.(it'll end up scaled-down,so
any wonky edges won't be noticable.Probably)

I'll draw the pillar (just duplicate it lol) and the coat-of-arms
tomorrow.Mirai's Kyouki will have to wait,since IDK what his
colour scheme is.(I can't give him one without Mirai's permission
after all)

EDIT:Well shit,forgot to shade them pants.Brb
EDIT2:Fixed
Zekira
Oh wait OH they're already in Ura...

...guess there goes my minor SB idea, oh well~

Everything else is actually a LOT flashier than I expected though! ♥♥♥

EDIT: Oh wait, it's because I DIDN'T actually elaborate on what I thought up for an SB... orz.
crystalsuicune
IDK,drawing on my iPod can be rather time-consuming when compared
with doodling on my sketchbook or drawing with a comp.

Drawing for an SB will be out of my league,I'm afraid
Zekira
It's just a simple SB actually; there are some parts of the song where I darken the entire place and redden the eyes of both of them Kyoukis.

At first I thought that it'd be neater if they were in their normal forms, then just transforms into Ura on those parts. But since I think that'll be a bit too orz, I'll settle for the 'insane' Ura effect instead.
crystalsuicune
But the reddening effect will only be visible on Mirai's Kyouki.
My version already has lunatic red eyes…(at least when in ura form)
crystalsuicune


Double posting like a boss~

Coat of arms (or a tapestry,whatever) for Shi-chan
(having a badass winged white tiger called Shi-chan is
so hilarious I don't even)
I'll draw Whiterose's when I have time
Zekira
The red eyes effect will be easily shown for both of them as long as the entire background becomes darker, I think
crystalsuicune
Well I can try giving them a different facial expression?
Zekira
Well IDK actually... maybe it'd be better? You know, your Kyouki's insane look needs to be insane in his lunatic mode, yeah...
Zekira
News flash! Kibou wants Shimedore's ass

Speaking of which
Zekira
Why is the no-symbol one shorter lol
crystalsuicune
Maybe it's because the uploader scales it down?
(I upload stuff onto photobucket with their original sizes)
Zekira
Oh yeah, looks like stuff gets scaled down when uploaded here, I think
Zekira
Wait a minute, everything I have is scaled down, what the hell!

Very off-topic:
Reflec Beat Limelight makes use of the Jubeat
pass/fail system,BTW.So long as you get a high
enough score,you pass even if you lose the match

Result?Shitstorm among RB players

And now they're bringing the same system to GFDM.

Result?Even bigger shitstorm

And don't get me started on Lincle Link or PnM


What is with Konmai and them pissing off older players here and there?
I know Jubeat's a cashcow,but changing the system is just…goddamn.

Actually, jubeat is the best game now but
ruining certain game's system would not be good.
It's just like trolling.
I really sad about this...

...
Whatever orz
Zekira
So where is Jubeat in PH again a;lskdfhadksfhasdf

I was about to make a rantpost again here about PH government but I feel like I've said it too many times already hahahaha. Long story short, PH is just basically a dump of poorfags everywhere ._.
crystalsuicune
WHAT NO WHAT'S SO BAD ABOUT POORFAG-CHAN

Jokes aside,the PH gov is pretty ehhhh.They STILL owe us an apology.
And there's probably a reason why the Right of Abode issue's generating
a shitstorm here
crystalsuicune


Sorry for the half-assed shading orz
Zekira
Jokes aside,the PH gov is pretty ehhhh.
If 'ehhhh' means neutrality then I wish I could say the same; we've topped #2 as one of the most corrupt countries in the entire world some years ago ._.

They STILL owe us an apology.
And to everyone else, especially themselves. God, do they never feel sorry for the amount of deception they've kept...




Anyway, I'm already working on some of the diffs because this song is INCREDIBLY SHORT so the laziness isn't getting to me lololol

And yeah, everything on twitpic is getting resized, go figure.


EDIT: Apparently we already have a character for NECOLOGY. It's the one at the top. Her name is 'NECO', complete with all caps and not a JP name at all

"NECOさんは小悪魔系お姉さんキャラ。名前は「ねこ」とは発音が微妙に違うらしくて、「猫」と呼ばれると怒ります。"



Pretty easy to think up of her personality, eh? The smile on her face also says it. And she hates being called a cat, so... yeah

Major Off-topic mode:

-some insane revolutionist thought of going insane (in a wrong way obvs)
-SWAT team = Sorry Wala Akong Training, evidently
-the media stupidly highlighted this entire calamity while it was happening, provoking all parties to do shit wrongly <-------- IMO this is where most of the blame is to be put.
-Other police, both SWAT and non-SWAT, were POSING TO TAKE PICTURES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CRISIS
-And the government officials WERE HAVING LUNCH AT SOME 5-STAR RESTAURANT WHEN THIS SHIT WAS HAPPENING except for one of them (forgot the name) who was the only one making an effort to contact the ombudsman
-AND SAID GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL IS PART OF THE SUSPECTS wtffffffff
-And even in the aftermath, almost everyone that was crossing the place WAS ALSO POSING TO TAKE PICTURES
-Thus then leaving a bad impression of PH throughout the entire world, especially HK

Yeah I think I remember that part too >_< failure.
Also let me just explain something: this guy is TOTALLY INEXPERIENCED. Sure he may not be that corrupt (which I think just got disproved this year -_-), but he's seriously not cut for that position of his. I mean, I didn't even know that this guy existed until he suddenly ran for presidency. There are two other MUCH MORE CAPABLE candidates back in last year's election but NOOOO the masses had to be stupidfucks and vote him. He's riding on the name of his father, which is a real legend (probably worldwide; Ninoy Aquino, the current president's father, is heavily linked to the People Power phenomena), but him? Pure bullshit. And everything I said here is an understatement.

:o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o

Because puush has limited space :<

I don't remember exactly how big of a space we needed for all the maps to be hosted (which isn't the case right now since Rokodo's site is down, so we lost the link to all of the maps...), but it's definitely larger than 1GB :/

Ask someone who's pro to do it.
Zekira
Considering that none of us here are using pro, will someone actually be patient enough to list down around 500+ links though?

We're still having trouble gathering all the maps again though (ROKODOOOOOOO T_T) so it's gonna take a lot of time in our part too :/

LE FUUU ;_; that's just too bad then..
Zekira
@aqua: Speaking of which, we DO have to gradually gather all the maps again at some point! IDK whether you want like a one-time big-time thing or a little-by-little but-takes-time procedure, but bottomline is we have to restore everything back...

...unfortunately I can't be of any help since I rarely downloaded any of the non-BSS authentics! orz...
MMzz
Just make Lepi to export his whole song folder from osu!, he has them all, he made more then half of them. xD
Zekira
I'm betting he doesn't have a majority of the pre-lepido maps though, which is still A LOT

Also we'll still have to iron out the non-authentic folders that might get dragged along with it too :<

But yeah, I think someone uploading their entire folder is a good start Not to mention that our song folders are like 213905762357 GB already....

If you can control every file to less than 2MB (or split the file using WinRAR or such so each part is less than 2MB, 1.8MB per part is ok.), you can upload them as Attachments on my server, I don't know about the bandwidth though, but the space is enough since I got a disk quota of 999999MB...
betawatcher
@ crystalsuicune I like the drawing style. :3

Also, this is unrelated but... I just started toying with RNGs in my pokemon soul silver game to catch a mild rayquaza for my bro (IVs 31/31/16/31/31/31) but I keep getting the delay off (I think) and I have no idea how to calculate the delay for it! I tried using EonTimer and I think I typed in the correct info but when I try to check delay through Elm Search in RNG Reporter there's no match... it probably means my delay timing was WAY off, right?

EDIT: Actually I know what I did wrong, I had to press A rapidly to get to continue screen, even if I had lots of time to spare. I hit the right seed (frame 97) then I got impatient and used pokemon talk to advance a lot... and went over by 18 frames without noticing. URGH /facepalm

EDIT2: After catching the Rayquaza I realized the frames were for method 1... no wonder I got the wrong nature!!!!! :cry: Good thing for method K there were only 36 frames. Pretty much 2 hours burnt from doing all these mistakes...

Sorry for ranting.
Zekira
After catching the Rayquaza I realized the frames were for method 1... no wonder I got the wrong nature!!!!!

Wait what why is Rayquaza under Method K?

...that's what it says in the guide? XD Method 1 is for roamers, starters you're given, eevee, game corner pokemon, fossils, dialga/palkia/giratina & togepi from mr. pokemon. Since I'm playing pokemon soul silver all the other pokemon are classified as method K.
Zekira
Oh figures, I have never RNG'd in Soul Silver... I did everything in Platinum lol; things like exclusive egg-moves in HGSS are being done by a co-battler of mine
betawatcher
I'm RNGing in Soul Silver just to capture the pokemon in there. (my main target is a jolly ditto for my breloom but I practised on rayquaza first) Will RNG in Pearl for the eggs. It's good practise to prepare for the 5th gen game! (I haven't bought it yet :P But thanks to this RNG thing I'm interested again!)

But I don't have anyone else to do competitive battling with except my bro (he has a thing for rayquaza & garchomp, meh) and my cousin (he's just... weak. No strategy). I wish I could fight other people...

Day 11 point 1. I SUCK AGAIN T_T


Basically I tried drawing Ryougen's ears again. Turns out I FUCKED UP EVERYTHING ELSE TOO. Zoom in closely and you'll see how much the paper's been screathed to death by the eraser. I can't even draw The Unnamed Child properly, FFS!

Point 2.


Yes it still looks fugly.

Anyway, I'm too busy to finish this at the moment. But basically, the kid told her that she (Sai) was going to be the next character on to be practiced a full page on. She then asked what the kid typically draws anyway, so then he shows her... but accidentally flips to the wrong page.
I forgot what I wanted to do for the last panel though.
crystalsuicune
HAHAHAHAHA DISREGARD THAT OJIMA.

Turns out Ojima made the notechart only,the composer's
still Linda only.


Feh,and I was all worked up about another possible
Konmai collab…


Also,AILE's one of those JBG Music Academy guys,
who collabed with Tatsh in his Comiket stuff.

So does this mean I didn't lose the bet?
