<sincx> puke i had an idea regarding wildchip that i'm not sure is actually any good but might clear up some confusion
<puke7> oh?
<sincx> i feeel we should divide it into two sections
<sincx> an "anything goes" section (classic wildchip) and an mp3-only section (chipstyle?)
<pedipanol> one that is real chiptune and one that is fakebit?
<sincx> yeah
<puke7> chipstyle
<puke7> the PC version of fakebtit
<sincx> lol
<sincx> but yeah i feel like there's always some sort of controversy over what's allowed in wildchip when people enter non-mp3s
<sincx> even though it's supposedly widely accepted that they are allowed
<Schallwelle> that's Your feeling, i don't see it being a reality tho =P
<Schallwelle> ok there was a thread once, but that's all i've heard lel
<sincx> i see stuff on irc about it relatively frequently
<sincx> particularly in ohbs
<Schallwelle> then just tell them to stfu and rtfl (lyceum)
<Schallwelle> xD
<Schallwelle> X~D
<puke7> i mean, originally wildchip was meant for combining real chip stuff with live stuff but that was asking too much
<sincx> somebody edited the lyceum to remove the bit about that schall
<pedipanol> oh, that happened when Joltik submitted a .M2 file
<sincx> the spirit of wildchip imo is to have the freedom to use any format to make somethin

<pedipanol> ^this entry
<sincx> but anyway yeah that's what i had to say
<sincx> been thinking about it the past couple days
i think everything i have to say is described in that abridged bit of log from irc; basically i think instead of a single "wildchip" format we should have two. one for "go wild" as the name implies (any format so long as it's chip or chip-like); and another for "chipstyle" or "fakebit" reserved for MP3 battles as the lyceum seems to indicate.
thoughts??
