Have fun with your ongoing contests, I am out of this and will not visit this thread again. I do regret having participated in this and given any thought to it. What a major waste of my time. Those who are interested may discuss CBB edits with me in our thread.

I don't like pissing in people's cheerios, but it seems like you're trying to find excuses for not liking this contest. Have you even tried contacting the other judges directly? If you want their input so badly, why don't you PM them and ask for it. I hope you're not just going to assume that all the judges keep checking this thread frequently. The contest is over you know.

But with an attitude like yours, I can see why the judges might not bother with you anyway.

It's great to finally see this come about!

Special thanks to Dayv, Rikter, YodaIsYourFather, Coov, and everyone else for putting this together.

Laserman is one of OT's most beloved members. His contributions to the boards, especially the Preservation forums, have helped this place grow into what it is today. He has provided some of the best, most informative posts this board has ever seen. His expertise in the world of video production is second to none. If it weren't for people like Laserman, this would be a much different place. The X0 Project wouldn't even exist!

I hope everyone will join us in helping Laserman in this difficult time.

The old IFO files worked for me, though I couldn't figure out a way to fix the time. However, I did use the 5.1 audio instead of the 2.0 and I edited the IFO to reflect that. Still worked fine. I'll try out the new IFOs and see if I can do the same thing.

And yes, there should only be 6 VOBs. 5.xGB of video + AC3 = 6 (~1GB) VOBs.

thank god for disc recovery software.

I nearly cried last night, I was this close to just packing it all in.

This is exactly why I'm saving up for a RAID5 Array. If one drive fails, all is not lost. I have 650GB+ of data stored on my computer (mostly from video projects) and most of it isn't backed up.

Ah. The musicals are always the best.

I wear my Strong Bad hoodie to class. People notice you when you wear a Strong Bad hoodie.

Yeah, the new SBemail is awesome.

The thing I've been doing lately is going back and watching all the old ones and trying to find the easter eggs. Since I didn't find out about the easter eggs until that "the process" email, it's kinda fun going back and seeing what I missed.

It has come to my attention that people in this community have no idea who Strong Bad is, or what homestarrunner.com is. This is completely unacceptable.

When I say something like "Trogdor strikes again!", or "fhqwhgads!", or I change my name on IRC to ZionX0_404d, you'd better know what I'm talking about.

If you've been living under a rock or something, here are some essentials:

Welcome Page

Strong Bad Emails
--I Love You (fhqwhgads)
--Techno
--Japanese Cartoon
--Dragon (Trogdor)
--English Paper
--Favorites
--Stunt Double
--Virus
--Long Pants
--Bottom 10
--Technology

Teen Girl Squad

Marzipan Answering Machine

Toons
--Thing in a bag
--Cheat Commandos
--Cheat Commandos.....O's
--TrogdorCon '97

There. Now you have no excuse.

Are the retail ones burned into the video or something? That didn't happen to me. Also, you might want to check and see if "secondary subtitles" are turned on in your player's settings..

It's the same as the first one, just better animation and some added sound effects. A lot better though.

Ripping my ROTS DVD now. I'll take a look at the IFO and see if it's fixable. If not, I'll just compile what I have and let you know how it goes.

Tony Dorsett wasn't on Tecmo Super Bowl. He was on the original Tecmo Bowl though. But the most dominating player in that game was Walter Payton.

The second best player in TSB was Thurman Thomas.

You are a Chevrolet Corvette!

You're a classic - powerful, athletic, and competitive. You're all about winning the race and getting the job done. While you have a practical everyday side, you get wild when anyone pushes your pedal. You hate to lose, but you hardly ever do.

The answer is YES. Bo Jackson is the most dominating sports video game character ever.

That being said, I'm partial to the guys that have neary 100% hitting power, like Christian Okoye, Brad Mustar(d) and Reggie Cobb.

That being said, Houston is the most dominating team because of Moon and the recieving corps. Run and Shoot baby!

I can't believe John Elway's stats are so horrible on that game.

Do you have any way to connect your computer via digital audio out to your sound system? It might be worth doing even if you have to move your computer into another room. That way you can bypass your sound card's decoders and you can test it out on your HT system without wasting time burning another disc.

In my experience, DTS always encodes better. I ran into some crappy DD encoders myself while working on my ROTS DVD. Always frustrating as hell.

A link can be a big help sometimes, Rev.

vbangle, the old X0 Project thread was locked because a new one was started. The discussion continues there.

(Actually, now I see that the link in his post is to the new thread. So I guess you're off the hook Rev.)

Oh, I've been watching this thread for quite some time. I just never felt the need to post until now.

Let me just say that Bizzle doesn't need anyone to defend him. He is quite capable of that on his own. Nor is that my intention here. I'm just providing my opinion on the matter.

If you want to take what he says personally, fine. But perhaps you should reread his posts and rethink the point he's trying to get across. Not everyone in the world is going to be positive, or water things down so they don't hurt your feelings. Sometimes people feel the need to be blunt and honest. Sometimes those people are judges in a contest who want to give their honest opinion of the entries.

As I was watching this DVD last night, I was flooding my mind with ideas for more dubs to add. This would be a fun project to work on if I ever got the time.
