I don't remember who originally suggested it, but I strongly support "Episode 2: Digital Groove."

Log in with your wiki account, open the A2MBXT Levels page, click on the three lines button, and then edit source. From there just copy what others did.

If Ep.1 is Analog Funk and Ep.2 is Digital Something, what would Ep.3 be called? what comes after analog and digital?

I vote to call Episode 3 "Acoustic Disco".

Episode 2 is obviously going to be called Electric Boogaloo.

Episode 3: A Return to Analog Centered Entirely on its Expense and Coolness Rather Than any Acoustic Benefits or Lack Thereof.
All the protagonists wear lens-less glasses and have beards.

There should be a poll or something.

Episode 3: "Acoustic Waltz/Disco"
Episode 4: "Destruction Symphonic (or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Armeggadon)"

We should make a pool of possible names for the episode, narrow it down and then set up a poll to vote on it.

Also I'll second Digital Groove.

As for episode 3 I think we'll have to come up with something more abstract... or just go with dr. shemp's idea.

But NRZ encoded hiphop. :P NRZ is a simple type of digital encoding. It makes so much sense guyz.

Honestly though this isn't a real discussion. :P It makes no sense to suggest names for episode 3 right now.

What are you talking about? We can have cryptic references to disco in episode 2!

That means the second word is also a musical term... you've got Funk, Groove... what's next? Jam? Boogaloo?

Swing.

On a different note, let's talk about the final castle of Episode 2. Also, I'm not quite sure whether this is spoilerish or not, so spoilering anyway just in case.
Could we combine the relay level and the final castle into one level? You know, like it was in the ASMT? It would also find a use for that Wart replacement theme that nobody seems to use.

I still like Waltz for Episode 3, simply because the defining characteristic of a Waltz is its three-beat time signature.

Well, in that case, the second episode should be Digital Polka as Polka almost always seems to have a 2/4 signature time.

Theme-wise that might end up being far too chaotic. It'd probably be more suited to the final-final-final castle of the entire series.

Still sticking with my original suggestion for Ep. 4's title

Has anyone started working on Ep. 2's W8 castle yet? If the structure's still up for debate I propose splitting the place up into two levels, the first being closer to the typical SMW final level structure with a choice of different paths for each segment/game in review thing and the second going something like this (Warning, potential story spoilers based on stuff that is subject to change):

If we're doing the SMW style castle, then there's something I had in works for a long time.
The idea is, it's multiple paths, but it's SMB1 style maze multiple paths, except the paths don't lead you to the beginning of the path, but to a different part of the level. It's essentially freshening up the parts of the original SMW Bowser's Castle. The problem I have right now, is doing that seamlessly, but I am working on making it better.
