it'd be fun to have a long-term collab in progress :D

my idea is that we just keep writing albums and EPs that fit into NSFs or GBSs or other multisong chip formats until we collectively have so many that they fill up an entire floppy disk and then release them as a huge splurge of music all in go... maybe in disk format! both as a fun community thing and as an antidote to too many people releasing a nine minute EP and trying to make people pay for it xD

Tristendo's sixty-four song NSF idea is similar to this and it'd be nice if we combined forces!

if anyone feels like zis'd be fun, zen reply!

haha yeah Ziberia.nsf means the project would start and end on the same day. i suppose we all need to be careful about ze amount of space the files take up - i know you can get 15 minutes of listenable music in a 32k NSF because i've done it :D perhaps we could use BotB standard comp sizes, ie 8k and 48k XMs, 32k NSFs and all zat?

and yeah a 3 1/2" floopy which is the standard i remember. the only thing i used 5 1/4"s for was to play very old text adventures =)

also a project like this could possibly need an autoexecutable menu?

auto menu means not cross platform :( unless he is java or something

Instead of an autoexec menu maybe there should be a demo on the disk explaining teh craktroness of it all... I mean, when yer talking 1.44mb you can fit a lot of chip stuff on there!
