Yeah! Why is he so special? ;)

Nah, it's good to see quantity with a lot of quality on the site coming from the one arranger. His name haunts me in the Mega Man section!  :P

Everyone here has potential to have an update of their own.  Commander6's quality (and quantity of quality!) is consistent and he had a huge backlog of well-arranged songs to help expand the site that weren't going to put themselves up.  Like I said, if people show the consistency that he has, there's a chance I'll hunt you down for a special update.  It's very easy to check over songs when all you have to do is give them the once over because they're perfect. :P

Short answer: I play favorites. ;)  I won't accept crap from someone just because I've liked their stuff in the past, but I'm willing to do special updates for those that prove to be great all the time.

The songs that have been gathering dust for years have finally been submitted! ;D

Next up; more Megaman 4 and Final Fantasy! (brought to you by Nintendude73, to whom I can't think of anything to express my thanks.)

No problem, dude, just keep up the good work.  I expect there will be another bonus update with your name on it, looking at all of the Final Fantasy stuff you've got in your thread. :o  Just let me know when it's ready.

Post by: ALPRAS on July 22, 2009, 10:00:21 AM
Well, my songs cant be consistent because Im arranging directly by ear, and its an arrangement Piano to ochestra, which is very hard...
I was invited to do Pokemon, sonic and Final Fantasy arrangements, but since I dont like very much FinalFantasy, 16-bits and GBA/DS songs I dont wanna too....

But I would like to ask you, maybe next year or something, if you could dedicate a Bonus update for me, with my SMG arrangements. I will not submit more SMG songs until November or December so....

We'll see. :)  It could be like when grimace and I tackled every single song in Super Mario RPG (you wouldn't have to do EVERY song obviously, but an update with one person doing a lot of music from a certain game is definitely possible).

I hate people who play favorites. You should tell me why Commander6 gots his own special update, while Brassman f.e. is far superior and means a LOT more to this site. No offence, but Brassman has far more quality and quantity.

You're not going to be a huge fan of me, I guess.

Let me try to explain this.  Commander has been around here since before the update drought.  I added songs of his to the site before the big update drought.  I know his work.  It has always been great.

The one you're playing favorites with, Brassman, is newer.  I never got to add any of his work to the site because he wasn't around when I used to update.  I have only updated with his stuff twice.  It has been great, as well.  I wouldn't say far superior; I would say they are both around the same level, which is a very good thing.  He's on his way to being a favorite.  But I don't know him that well yet.  I don't know you that well yet.

Would you like me to stop updating?  That's a lot easier for me to do than to continue.  If you have a problem with my way of doing things, I suggest you complain elsewhere.  I've learned time and time again as an updater that I definitely can't make everyone happy.  But when people start complaining when THE SITE IS BEING UPDATED after so long of having NOTHING, that's when I start to get angry and confused.

I could rant on and on, but I'll sum this up before I get carried away.  This is just the first special update.  I could do loads more.  I may not do any more.  But this is how I"m going to do things and if you don't like it, tell someone who cares.  I've been happy with your work as well, but you've just given me a very bad impression of yourself.  That is all.

Understood. I'm a fan of your updating though, trust me. You do what JaMaHa and Composer #40 couldn't. And that's the problem with Composer #40 for me. I hardly see Composer #40 helping other people or doing any arrangements and that's the difference between him and Brass. The fact that you dedicate yourself to this updating and don't just say: "I don't got the time, so it might take a while" is the fact that I appreciate. And I'm sorry that I gave you a very bad impression, but Brassman is my friend who I sincerely admire and sometimes I feel like his work is a little undervaluated by some people. Everyone gets two songs to update and it makes me angry and confused when I see that a guy who hardly says anything on this forum (in my opinion) nor does as much as Brass can upload 27 songs! That doesn't sound fair at all to me. More like picking favorites, which you acknowledged.

I'm not jealous because I know I can't hit the level that Composer #40 and Brassman have and I don't mind. I like my arrangements and I contribute something, so that's fine too. But I just wanted to know why it is happening the way it is.

Sorry if I gave you a bad impression, but I find justice important and though you may think I'm whining about nothing, I think it might give a wrong signal if everyone can just upload 2 songs and one specific person can upload 27 or even 29.

Post by: Nintendude73 on July 22, 2009, 12:55:26 PM
I'm choosing this kind of thing based entirely on arrangements.  I don't stray much from the top half of the forum, so that's probably why I don't know all of these things about Brassman.  I don't talk much on the forums, either.  I have about 200 posts.  Whether or not someone gets arrangements on the site doesn't depend at all on how they act in the community.  If the arrangements are good, they go up.  If the person's arrangements are consistently good, then I may feel inclined to add more from them.  I'm not paid to do this job.  I'm hardly even thanked. :P  So I do it how I want.  That may seem selfish and self-centered, but if you want me to stop, give me a salary and I'll do this job how YOU want me to do it.

Like I said, this was only the first of this kind of update.  Maybe I'll try to do a monthly featured arranger.  Maybe I won't ever do this again because of the reaction I've gotten from some people.  My advice is not to worry about it and just keep doing what you do.  I don't want to make enemies or tear this forum apart.  I just want to help update the site.

Hey, in my opinion, you really shouldnt stop this thing. Its a new and good system, and i love it.
You are right. You arent payed to do this stuff, so do it just like you want :P
This is a great thing to do, because we can start to meet and know determinated arrangers, and how is his work. You have my positive vote. I could be the last one to be selected here, or even couldnt selected, cuz I dont have no worrys. I just want to see everybody happy :)

I think some people are making too big of a deal regarding the order songs are uploaded to the site. As long as everybody's songs eventually get on NSM, it's really not a cause for worry or complain.

And the special update can hardly be considered favoritism, when Composer#40's submission thread post was literally at the character maximum.

Short version: beggars can't be choosers, dont' whine.

Post by: kotorfanboy on July 22, 2009, 10:34:37 PM
I found your argument compelling until the misplaced apostrophe in the last sentence.

Disappointing, padawan.

But my basic argument is this: Ninte did Commander's bonus update in his spare time. He didn't scrap the normal update in favor of Commander's update, he took more time out of his day to get it done. He's getting more sheets on the site without compromising attention to others. In a utilitarian sense, the better result occurred from having the bonus update versus not having the bonus update (more sheets on the site, no one has attention compromised) so it's the better path.
