DDR Take 2: Mercy Killing

Post by TommyRude » Mon Oct 07, 2002 1:48 pm

Okay y'all, do to an overall lack of interest, I'm pullin the plug on the failed DDR experiment jus' a little under a month after is' conception.
Basically, we only had about 9 people working on it to begin wit, then a bunch went awol. Then a few of the people left jus' flaked out. So, I don' wanna deal wit it. Leading a project is one thing, but I can't lead it if it doesn' even get off the ground.
I'm a little pissed about this, yo. First off at the people who committed, then jus' decided they didn't wanna do it.
Second, because what I said before was true. I think it sucks that the DDR Project guys would lay claim to every mix from 2-7, an' get all bent outta shape about someone using one of them too. But fact is, there's nuthin I can do about it because they ARE seen as the ruling class of this comunity an' the masses take whatever they say as law. Sucks, but is' true.
So anyway, you win Hsien, jus' like y'said y'would.

Peace

Greetings all!

We have deemed it the appropriate time to finally step out of the shadows and proclaim our rulership over the AMV community! Bow down before us, fools or you shall all perish!

Hear our proclamation thou miserable swine and tremble forthwith!

We do so decree that there shalt be no DDR Project other than the Real DDR Project! Except for other DDR Projects that actually take the hard work and time to succeed, forsooth.

Remember faithful followers, if thou dost talketh the talk, thou must walketh the walk!

K, I'm gonna ignore the above to posts as they are entirely irrelivant. But everyone warned you Tomy about the people who wouldn't work. I found out during DDR 1 from Nick that the project was plagued with people who weren't doing the work and who didn't even have equipment yet. So not only did you deal with those slackers you also created a competitive project, thereby dividing people apart and they whent to the established project rather than yours. Look how fast the NES project got off the ground? The trick is getting people's intrest and getting it going outside of just saying, "I'm starting project X."

It's a good thing I got "stuck" at the 10second mark for my track... Then this post comes up...

Had I finished my track, I would have probably had to go out and proverbially shoot someone...

Well, I guess my chances at jumping on DDR just went down da tubes...

:o

Heck, at least Feel the Rhythm alone is keeping me nice and [un-newbified...]

Wait... does this mean I'm part of the ruling class? How'd that happen? I thought I was a newbie, or something to that effect. BLAH BLAH BLAH!!! AUGH! I swear, I'm going insane slowly. Or could it be quick and I don't know it? Do my posts ever make any sense? I DO EXIST!!!

Actually, I think you don't realize how bad things were on the first DDR project last year! Tracks were assigned, then dropped, then not done, etc, etc... The whole thing was a nightmare to do to begin with! So I'm not supprised with a second project that things would be worse since it's it's already hard getting one done....

In terms of this whole rulling class thing, I think I saw people express thier opinions and I don't think I saw anyone hold a gun to anyone's head to have the project dropped.... It actually would be nice to have several project to be involved in, but I'm just not sure there is editors with the time and commitment to do so many tracks (Just as ErMaC about the other project he started, it's still short on editors)...
