Wait a minute...
A~Ha!! That is a good idea!
When I'll making a chip battle art,
I try to use MS Paint, then I will make an ASCII Text art, using my bitmap font from C64, followed by the color pallette from c64 as well.

112125

There goes my chance to get closer to my AYM badge... Also I have no excuse to not learn Famitracker now

112134

Gimme a random number from 1 to 26 (integer, no floats),
only first response will Count.

112162

11!

112163

Thanks! (Counts to the eleventh comment in this thread),
lets see….. that is Yomaru Kasuga

Yomaru Kasuga... do you wanna mod64k (XM) Co-op, you want some stupid blastbeats for your tune?

112164

~~its secretly a double 1, that means two collabs with me!!!~~

but holy shit, i really wanna hear a strobe-yomaru co-op!

112165

Lets just hope they respond ;) still plenty of Days left!

112166

I didn't realize how much I wanted to hear this until now.

Strobe & Yomaru co-op has to happen.

112176

I'm sure a collab between you both could make for a very nurturing experience, I hype for you to give it a try!

112309

:)

112382

adlib? :-)

112565

Mister kleeder……. do you… wanna….. 64kB-XM-colab= ..... I have nothing…

112566

WELL GOOD DAY MR STROBE!!!
PLEASE CONTACT ME AT: TimoKleeder#0056 on discord!!!!

112567

Yupps! I will do that some time after work ;)
My previous randomized attempt at finding a co-op was a rather
stupid idea, maybe I should have just asked someone instead
of relying on the forces of the universe!

112568

strobe you are not allowed to collab, that's cheating >:(

112569

[This n00b ashamed of what written. - BotB]

112570

I hadn't minded being part of that strobe-collab..... though I should be happy I got to collab with wvl, that was really fun too..... but still :D

112577

I'm all for a super-co-op obviously, the muddier the better xD
I might not have the time today though, I ………….ehh…….accidently started…...a...…. Bunny tune? ………. what is wrong with me.

112592

chipchampion <3

ps I will vote this year I secretly still love botbuh

112742

Is there going to be a wildchup category this edition?

112763

tbh i'd be glad if theres no wildchip.
it feels like too many people are just waiting for it instead of trying the actual chip formats, which isnt the point of a chip major battle imo.

try to do music for actual soundchips, everyone! >:(

112771

what about adlub tho

112773

i'm all for adlib and/or midi

112789

Adlib Module is only for the winter chip.

112790

http://battleofthebits.com/arena/Battle/3773/BattleInfo/

No, it's not.

112798

I should be rendering my AYM entry tomorrow on an Atari STe so if you've got an SNDH you want rendered on hardware speak now or remain forever silent (or at least until next offer). Although I'm reluctant to render entries using DMA, if it makes you happy I'll do it. I can even render Amiga modules with the crap ST sound if you so lust after.

112809

H H
HHH
H H.

I'm sooo mad I only JUST got the time to MAYBE work on something for summer chips, but just 5 days?? rip. gg's though

112833

I'd vote for Amiga MOD or 1xPOKEY if there's an extension for formats.

112835

i dont need an extension nor do i need/want more formats BUT if its happening, pls give us mariopants extended and/or tia

112836

A BotB major without an extension can not exist. The universe would probably instantly collapse.
Maybe I'll even get something done this time, extensions or not. Would be nice to get back into things.

112838

If there is an extension, please have it come with Mario Paint!

112874

yes extension plz

112876

i agree

112880

Expand song pls

112892

If an extension comes with Mario Paint, then I will Cook my shoes
and serve it to orphans in random bouts of pure rage, while eating
cactuses right from the ground.

An extension is welcome though! since I won't be able to create anything more at all until later next week ;)

112898

Expand it plz.
Needs to add WILDCHIP Feature

112920

yes
extend with wildshit

112921

natural compo enhancement

112927

extend with pico-8 nudge nudge

112939

pls extend

112970

It ain't a chip battle without begging for extensions!

So for that reason, I will begin begging for an extension. Pleeeaaaaseeee Pukeyyy!

112972

i literally did every format already, but more music == good, so yes please give extension i need more good music to listen to i guess

112973

Sweet. Finally posted my 1st genesis track, done in DefleMob. 2 tracks fire the compo by me, nuff :D

112975

Yeah, an extension would be lovely.

112989

Extend Tron

112992

Battle of the Extensions. every time I submit I always rush to meet the deadline then an extension happens lol

113034

I was hoping for an extension :D

113071

Well we got one!

113073

Oh you slumlord mutant-sockpuppets!!! Mario Pain!!! >:(((
I'll make a damn entry out of pure spite!

113077

grandpa strobe less tunes more naps >:3

113078

No more naps for grandpa strobe, more hammering on le keyboards in a variety of random sequences!

113084

Now it's grandpa Strobe?

113085

Stay a while and listen!

113109

It feels like I'm missing a lot of important botbrs this major, or is that just me?

113112

I agree, as every BotBr is important, and only 66 of them all are currently participating in this major compo.

113113

^ that's 10 botb'ers too much if you'd ask me

113116

There's Always NOT ENOUGH BOTBRs!!!!

113124

Can I Join In?

113126

please join in it's all n00bs!

113127

113139

excuse me, can a wild chip be a allgear thingy?

like remixes on audacity??

113140

no, obviously not. both are different formats for a reason. please refer to the lyceum articles for allgear and wildchip respectively

113211

"Make a SID Song plz" they said, "It'll be fun" they said.
This might be the most unintentionally broken thing I have ever
got myself into, I have no idea what i'm doing.

I'm now on revision 40.... and it's still totally broken, i'm Learning something new every day though ;)

113224

Oh yea I'm looking forward to hearing a strobe .sid

113225

No you are not. it is terrible.

113226

i wanna tag this comment with "defeatistcore"

113282

E X P A N D

113295

By a couple more hours, at least?!

Ah well, either way I look forward to voting!

113297

wish i felt good enough to have made some entries but wow, what we've been getting is all really really good.

113302

I think I'm gonna skip this major. I was about to post a SGen entry, but after looking at the Creative Commons thing, I think it might be a bad idea to have it here and in the game I'm scoring as the solo composer. Other than that, I don't have anything else ready for this compo.

113310

First entry: https://battleofthebits.com/arena/Entry/summer+%D1%87%D0%B8%D0%BF/32013/

113313

Happy bortinges everyone!!!

113314

Nice!

Most entries in a Summer Chip since Summer Chip III, and that only had 1 more entry, which makes this one the Summer Chip with the second most entries.

After my return, I was worried there wasn't much activity here anymore, but I guess people just don't OHB much anymore.

113386

curses!!!!!! i missed it

113485

THERE ARE SO MANY WILD CHIP ENTRIES OMG

113681

For anyone who missed the synclistens, here they are :D

Part 1: https://youtu.be/wRKAXFdCcag
Part 2: https://youtu.be/_Q8e3qPyEzY
Part 3: https://youtu.be/7JZpuIFeRaQ

113756

As eager as I am to receive the sluts, is there gonna be a voting extension? Each entry has a little under 20 votes so far, maybe there's other BotBrs here who need the extra time or haven't got to it yet.

113761

I would use an extension, I have completed less than 70%

113765

3 weeks of voting and only 15-20 votes per entry?? :((

113830

I wonder if people are overwhelmed by the number of entries, and thus not voting at all. Maybe make the "nextious entry" button go to the entry with the least number of total votes, so you can feel like you're contributing even if you don't have the time to go through all 200+ entries. There'd need to be an option to turn it off for synclistens.

Alternatively, offer a voting badge!

113844

I will make it to the 100%!

113847

I actually have my own commentary on this: I decided to only make a partial return to voting due to having so many entries for the entire compo and having listened to so many of them in the past that I find my votes would be too average normally, especially for some of the chips. I voted on the battle art and SPC categories only.

113878

I made it over 85 percent but waited until the last few days to vote. That's my fault so I should lose the chance to earn extra points from voting. Why should I get an extension? I had weeks! These extensions make us lazy imo. There was enough time to vote in the first place imo. Imo imo.

113885

dammit i only got to 9%

113994

Average Score :: 21.922

115767

burrRRrRrr!! it sure is getting cold! better go warm up with the memories of summer via teh b**ndc**p
