raocow's talkhaus

Maybe if 8flight posted his rationales like Horikawa & Ignoritus did it would make more sense. Right now, it feels like he just drew numbers out of a hat and assigned them to random levels. I can't see *any* sort of pattern to how he graded all those levels whatsoever... He is on the IRC record...

Not sure why I waited this long to say something, but... I couldn't help but smile when I heard the Dragon Quest 4 casino theme being used on the casino floor. That, to me, has always been the definitive "casino theme", and it was neat to hear it reprise that role in Dragon Quest 8. :D

I nominate Horikawa Otane for goddesshood for that comeback. That troll seems to pop up on every difficult stage raocow LPs and berates him for struggling, commenting on how easy *he* found the level, and how awesome the level was. I figured, either this guy is some sort of Mario wunderkind, or he's...

I've never touched Lunar Magic, so I probably wouldn't contribute... but I could be a judge if you wanted.

I vote RPG Maker for best editor, but that's just my personal bias. I find it extremely intuitive and easy to work with, but that might be because I've used it on and off for the last 13 years or so. *high five* I've been working with RPG Maker 2000 since 2001... though I've never finished anything...

Heh... I'm glad I wasn't a judge for this contest. I'd have fully halved the score for this stage (which would have been low enough as it is for being so ball-bustingly hard and relying on a glitch) solely for being Touhou-themed. I'm not a fan of the series (beyond its music, which is great... if ...

Hah. No one here is ever going to forgive Septentrion Pleiades for Box Had Ugly Tiles, USS Suboptimal, and Fluffy Quest, are they? Didn't you hear? They were so bad that they literally caused orphanages around the world to burn down. Oh my. Clearly, SMW and SMBX are sources of unspeakable power. Ma...

Ah, Box Had Ugly Tiles. Pokey riding is so not fun though, so ehtk thank you making a level based on something that's genuinely not fun  again, I guess http://talkhaus.raocow.com/download/file.php?avatar=2351_1386296160.jpg Hah.

Oh, I dunno. I think this is the best thread ever. And it'll only get better and better.

Yay! You finally put the new video up! Been waiting on this for a while. Man, Super Mario Land. Old school nostalgia, to the extreme. The graphics are so simplistic and primitive, but that's always felt like part of the game's charm to me. As is the fact that the instruction manual used the Japanese...

Well I think IceT was unfairly demonized and should have won the contest I mean what kinda bitch does that Spain By Chick Corea think she is anyway. At least she's hot. Next contest, I propose we do away with score entirely and just tell everyone YOU'RE WINNER and give them a three-handled trophy. ...

Ha. Yeah, I guess it's pretty much inevitable. I'm surprised it started so early, though.

Also: Holy crap. Nine pages of posts after only two videos? This thread is going to be enormous when this LP finishes.

I remember a lot of joking just before the LP started about how the comments were going to be full of people bickering about how "this level was way better/worse than that level and should have ranked higher/lower". And here we are, bickering about how "this level was way better/worse...

Yay! I got Not Last Place! I'm a bit unclear on the, uh, "winner", though. How did it not follow the name? It was called "Grassy Way Plains", and it was... a grassy plain. Unless you mean that the author came up with that name, and ignored the ones Horikawa gave him, in which cas...

Copy Kitty looks like something I might enjoy playing, but I can't enjoy a recording of it. Not being the one with a semblance of control over the chaos, all I see are multitudes of meaningless sparkles flying in random directions. That's pretty much how I feel about the series. I only watched the ...

Posting in this thread, however, automatically docks you 20 points in the next MAGL contest.

And here I thought I was alone in not being even remotely interested in Copy Kitty. Nice to know I'm not. That series is just a tad too chaotic for my tastes...

Heh. I didn't say it was *good* (though admittedly, I don't find it *quite* as terrible as people say it is), just that it's better than the Japanese game it was based on.

It's particularly galling because it's stolen from a good game but I'd be just as morally opposed to it if they were taken from a shit game like Yo! Noid. Funny you should mention Yo! Noid, since that game itself is a re-skin of a game called "Kamen no Ninja Hanamaru". I've played both, a...

What was the song for the first level of today's video? I know I've heard it, but I can't recall *where*.

You know... this hack honestly feels, at least to me, like it was done by two completely different people. The main game is well-made, and adheres fairly well to the established Pokemon theme. But then we get to the optional content... it feels like someone made a short but solidly built Pokemon-the...

I suggest filling the void with... VOXATRON!
