Hey guys - am trying to become more of a regular in here, so I thought I'd come and say hello in the community thread. So, hey :thumb:

Back on topic - Sci Fi not something I've ever been able to get into, which has always seemed a shame, cos so many people love it.

Spectrum 09-05-2005 12:40 PM

I just moved into my college dorm, so I've been very busy and have had no time to write or do much of anything recently. When I get back to the part where I have inspiration again, I'll contribute.

Until then, expect not a lot of anything from me.

Hey you two. Good to have a growing community. :D

And Spectrum, post some older songs (links), just to have a read. :)

Hey Tojes, i haven't been on critting much in the past few days. I'll probably be back and more involved in the next day or two though. I still haven't got much on apart from waiting on uni results so i'll probably crit everything on the first two pages over a day or so. Is everyone still giving good crits in here or have most fallen back to the one liners?

Actually yes, most of the regulars/olderrusers give good crits. Cyber isn't around anymore either, and there was this flood of songs that were really, really boring to rate.

But anyhow, Lately some good stuff has come up. I've been busy with school also, so I only crit like, 2 or 3 songs per visit to this forums.

There was this one song that had like 4 one-liners and I was like "wtf". And there was a song that was an epic that pretty much was a pain in the a[B][I][/I][/B]ss to rate. but yeah, everything is on the leash lately.

I'll find some old ones and post links for you right away.

EDIT: Might as well just do it here.

What happened with cyber? For about a week he crit everything on here and then just dissapeared. And Morrissey hasn't been back in either.:upset: .

At least everyone is critting better now. I've been on, but mostly in the pit, though i've submitted an entry for the Lyrical challenge this time around. I like critting so i'll be back within a day or two. I've been creating a songwriting guide and i'm working on an idea for the guitar forum as well. Once those are sorted i'll be critting heavily again.

Alright. Those should be very welcome, I hope.

Anyhow, Cyber said he was occupied with college and stuff, or something like that. Mozzarella... well. She didn't stand up for her word. Laziness, maybe. I don't know. It's been alright, though.

I just hate it when you come in and :eek: there are 20 new songs in the first page you haven't reviewed. And you want to check them all out, but you come across one of those gigantic-mamothic poems, with terrible grammar and punctuation... That takes you hours to decipher. Ugh.

I always try to find the bad points on things so those are the easiest for me. I'm very hard to please :D

Wait, Morissey is a girl??

I didn't expect that. Wow. Just Wow.

If/when i go back to uni i'll still be on a lot. I sleep little and MX breaks the boredom. Playing guitar at 3am is not recommended unless you want evicted :p

I really didn't know. It wasn't sarcasm. That's quite random. She doesn't write like a girl. And i don't mean that in a bad way. Girls think differently to guys(words rather than pictures) so things that they write tend to be more straightforward and less imagery rich.

And yeah, my " on the run from the cops" thread got shut so i'm back :D

And pixesfan is quite legendary around here. I've rarely if ever seen him post outsdide the lyrical challenge thread in ages.

Nah, don't worry. I't not like we crave them or something, but it'd be nice to see how your review system is and such. Try...mmm... There's a song by Archimedes that's really beautiful, why don't you try that?

And no. That's what we love about your songwriting.

You're morrissey-esque straightforwardness is nice but you also have some nice images as well. Most girls tend to think in words and so write songs in a "storytelling" style and forget to colour the song. Most guys think in images and don't get the point across enough. The few pieces i've read of yours are a nice mixture of both.

I nearly hit the floor when tojes said you were a girl. The thread that i was debating with you on in alt and indie gave no clues about your gender. I would never have guessed. Again, i'm not being sexist, it's just girls tend to argue in a different way because of the way that you think.

Disclaimer: I am in no way saying that you have a very masculine personality :p

Yeah, when I came across the existence of Mozzarela I never thought she was a... well. She. She isn't the kind of person who goes "Look at me I'm a girl" like most of "the pit" girls, and she never actually talks like a female... or at least... well. Everyone thinks that a person with stars and a lot of posts on the internet is a d00d who plays a lot of guitar.

Assumptions. :lol:

Spectrum 09-06-2005 03:58 PM

Hey, Tojes, here are some of the older songs I posted, as per your request. I thought I posted them earlier, though...

I liked the prog-thing. The intro is particularly great, considering it's Italian (Despite I don't speak it, I understand a lot of things as I'm pretty fluent in Spanish) And the rest of the songs are also amazing. Great writings. :thumb:

Spectrum 09-06-2005 05:26 PM

Thanks, mate. I'm usually not a huge fan of what I write, but I'm glad to hear that you like it.

I was right the crap about to mention that in the community thread, you beat me to it. :P

But yeah, it's horrible when someone can't take a critique, even for their own good. You could be a little more subtle about it, though. :p

But I love your reviews man, don't worry about that. He'll eventually die of herpes or something.

:lol: I feel better; if I hadn't just finished two essays and an hour of math I would go critic... but my brain hurts :( . I made myself a promise to spend three hours on Friday and Saturday criticing.

spend some of that time critting a piece of my stuff man.. You give awesome crits, but I never see any of them on my stuff...
nah, I don't care.. don't waste your time on my latest piece..
