Summer Chip VIII

100931

~~[_] 1. HES~~
~~[_] 2. PC98 (or Sharp X68k if thats going to be a format)~~
~~[_] 3. mod*k~~

100933

[x] nsf+
[ ] spc

100937

[ ] nsf+
[ ] chip battle art (if I still have time)

Edit: As it always happens with me, Summer Chip arrives at the worst moment, when I have like 5 simultaneous projects. Given the usual extensions, tho, I'll very probably have time to complete at least one entry.

Edit 2: Don't hæit me, Delta, I'm an FT man... ok, I'll edit so I don't receive too much hæit (added chip battle art)

Edit 3: looks more normal, I think.

100938

[ ] s3xmodit
[ ] spc
[ ] nsf+ (maybe)
[ ] sgen (maybe)

100939

(Maybe SMS too)

100941

Gameboy format would be cool

100942

Damn, I still have 3-4 weeks of college before I can make an entry. It should really have the SMS format or else...
Edit: Sir Puke, we are grateful for you compassion.

100943

~~Probably gonna focus on SPC this time around, if anything.~~

100952

sapx/sapx2 would be good format to include

101042

Oh, pc-x801 is available now? Brb updating my PMD converter script.

101043

push it on the front soon so those who like deflemask and FM know that there is another format they can submit to ;D

also edit:

any users that submit a single-POKEY (SAP) entry using Music ProTracker for Atari may have a chance of seeing their music in the upcoming BotB Demo! (shhhh)

101502

is submission impossible right now? im trying to send a .IT and it is well below five megabonks

101509

are you getting a popup that says its too big or is it silently failing?

101514

hello puke it goes to a black and white time out screen with an error like 400 or 500 or something!!

(this bad boy: Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@battleofthebits.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.)

101517

hello, "public toilet" here, i can upload my entry but not teh mp3 (?) very odd. pls fix, ok thanks

edit: (i also get that "error")

101518

i won't accept this site rejecting fresh zans >:(

101520

puke, the server is dying i cant upload mp3s because of it i get a 500 internal server error HALP PLEES

101537

ugg.... there's a long term plan to get the site on better hosting -- the problem (a guess) is coming from someone new on the shared server

when you see a 500 that means PHP crashed
is everyone experiencing this?

my advice (for the time being) is wait until a time when the site is loading efficiently and then submit

101547

I get that from time to time on botb and other sites.

101616

thank you puke!!

my only other question is "When's adlib" o:)

101631

arg its been too hot to track.... .also world cup lol

Summer Chip VIIISummer Chip VIIISummer Chip VIII

102129

holy heck i might finish my nsf+ in time

102167

Realistically speaking, I don't see it happening

~~But there always can be a possibility if you look at Puke with those sad cat eyes enough though~~

102222

p-PxTone…?!?!

102225

Hey, is this getting an extension? I don't even know if it already got one...

102236

At the moment I write this there's no extension yet. However, there are relatively few formats, relatively few entries and it's not even August, so one is likely to come.

102241

Ok! Thanks a lot for the info!!

102245

Any chance for compo-extendo? Life is keeping my fingers away from my ST...

102246

I hope there's an extension, there are still some formats that I'd like to try out!

102247

Current compo length: ------ too short!!!
Ideal compo length: ------------------------------- mmmmm long boi

102248

i kindof want it to end with no extension

102250

inb4 extension

102255

i can't wait until i get results in 2019

102262

yo merry christmas

102271

i mind neither extension nor lack of

102272

Extension would be good, I have had a lot of things to focus on the last few weeks so having some time to enter something here would be very good, but isn't necessary either.

102275

Well, there's been too much heartbreak and issues going on in my life to really finish a certain song as I wanted. I really hate to cut that song shorter than planned.

Hmmm... I might just have to postpone it for the next compo. But hey, it's cool. I rather have a solid winner, than a rushed haphazard track that doesn't meet my standards of unreasonable perfection. :P

102276

Titan is going to send this, but he's not using my acc as an alt to extensionbeg on. I can't access this site on my wifi, but I typed this myself and dmed it to him so he could post it. i'm really grateful that he agreed to temporarily manage my account for me because i honestly can't be bothered to go someplace just to visit botb

Extension, please? I genuinely don't think that we ("we" referring to myself and Titan. collab entry lol) are going to have time to finish by the deadline. :<
I'm a really slow composer, and I started extremely late because my music laptop broke. I had to switch computers; it was annoying and it took a while for various reasons. As a result, I just started work on our entry this week.

102277

Team extension! I started something like I said I would but new job, finishing an album, and working on a 65 day, solo diy tour have a tendency to get in the way of writing new music >__>

102278

pls extend...

102279

if you extend you'll just be failing to punish me for my sloth

102281

extension pls

102284

As I stated on a previous comment, I was working on 5 other simultaneous projects which I had to put on hold, except for one, which was really important and didn't let me start working on an entry for SCVIII as soon as I wanted.

That's why I'm joining team extension. I'll be sincere. SCVIII surprised me as it started sooner than expected. All recent "seasonal" majors have had extensions, also; this one being the exception would leave me just as surprised. Tbh, I was relying on having at least one since the beginning; I knew I couldn't complete an entry without it. It's not even August... we can handle an extension, can't we?

Also, I can confirm. I'm working on a collab with Chromable. He asked me to use his account to write a comment, since, for some strange reason, he can't connect to BotB from his wifi (that's why he's got my country's flag).

Sorry for the wall of text, but you can see why my entries tend to have the "descriptioncore" tag.

Bottom line: extension, pls?

102295

I don't want to sound nasty now, but i think no extension is a good thing, because there are plenty of great entries rn.
~~also some people rely on extensions too much, while other botbrs trying to meet the deadline..~~

if there is an extension, i'll look forward to further great entries though!

102297

enjoying the wordfilter i installed that replaces 'extension' with 'gf'

102300

hmmm, i'm noticing a pattern where the folks who are asking for no extension have all entered already...

if you're actively trying to prevent more entries, consider this a call out. otherwise, e.g. if you're just super eager for results, carry on then -_-

102301

i'm just super eager for results i'm not trying to prevent anything

102302

i agree with yung gotenks, also i'm interested for major battle ideas in the near future after summer chip. (dont get me wrong, summer and winter chip, spring tracks are great major battles, but i like unexpected, themed major battles a bit more)

102303

gf pls

102306

i'm willing to do synclisten

102310

I have GF already but what I don't have is few more days to make some musicsounds lol

102311

>tfw no gf

102312

oh you thought i'd forget? gf granted

TWO moar WEEKS
two MOAR formats

adlib + pxtone

102313

102314

102319

T h a n k s

102320

Love it when puke gives us all a gf

102321

so many thanks

102322

extension?

it's alt account time

102323

whoops I meant Amiga MOD not pxtone lol

102324

uuuuu nice!

102326

A-arigato, Puke-sama!

102327

If you give me a gf you'll just be failing to punish me for my chastity

102328

oh an extension happened

guess that means i can do the format that everyone hates now

102329

thank you very much puke!!

102351

next time why don't you just factor the inevitable extension into the submission time up front

102371

Well I kinda did! Didn't we start with 6 weeks?
Traditionally it's four. And then...
Haven't you ever seen a battle extended more than once before?

102372

beardo loves seeing his nooblets squirm

102382

An 8 week long major battle != A 4 week long major battle with 2 two week extensions.

It's just not the same.

102418

keep the compo open until dog enters

102424

keep the compo open until the entry-count is over 9000

edit: wait, how many users are registered? is 9000 even possible?

102446

it's alt account time x 9000

102470

Reminder that the djmaximumcore tag on this entry isn't big enough yet

102578

if you give me a liek you'll just be failing to punish me for my lack of originality

102585

belated thank you for extend so i had time to get here and do a submit

102640

i'm excited for the voting. there were so many good entries in this compo!!!

102643

102745

sorry I didn't do an adlib tune after I asked for the category
my inspiration is nil giggle

102763

this was.. like... the best and longest OHB i've ever participated in

103092

if you thought the ohb was long ol' P.T., just wait until you vote...

hundoplacenta finally
my aura got lighter. i think means that on average you did good!

103093

i'm glad nobody voted with P.T. tbh

103173

Hewwo ppl, I'm new here and I have a question, how can I upload my song and my cover art for this? ):

103174

@Viridian Cris time's up, pal. It ended two weeks ago. Now you can only vote. Maybe next time for you :/

103175

the entry period is over, its voting time right now. :(

103183

Who's one hundo'd? First n00b to one hundo with screenshot gets 750 boons.

103186

you mean like this?

103187

u not a noob

103188

all n00bz :((

103191

i'm proud to say that I have a whopping 10% voted, lads.

103192

I have 100% https://snag.gy/fCqpYa.jpg

103254

you have your boons. i hope you use them to host something once you have the badge for it. if not , consider donating them to someone u know if they say they want to host something but can't afford!!

103257

will do when I see such a message, I'll also consider hosting once I get a better hang of a tracker.

103291

Halfway through voting I got the skull aura and realized I'd been voting wrong-- starting everything at 1 instead of adjusting up or down from 4. Is it acceptable to go back and alter my older votes?

103296

sure, until voting ends (next sunday) you're allowed to change your votes as often as you want :D

103303

people with dark auras are cool

103411

There's no way I can vote this time, I've been working from morning to evening the entire week and today is no different :/ Must finish a thing...

103445

Good job, guys! It was an amazing Major! ^^

103446

I'm so proud to call you my children!
