What are you talking about? It shouldn't be blocky at all. Show some screen caps.

I really just cant deal with this anymore. I'm sorry, but TC is dropped from his track. I just cant put up with him anymore. I will still give him credit for starting this mep and getting people together. I just cannot deal with him anymore and he's been given a lot of chances on his track and with his behavior in this mep and I'm just done with dealing with it. It not just a quality issue with the track, there has been very little changes to the track since the beta that we all argued about. I'm not going to blame Hagaren or Vivaldi for how the track turned out editing wise. I know they did they're best in beta testing.

My decision is final. I know this will upset a lot of people and I know this will cause a lot of drama, but I just cant sit around telling people to keep up with quality and editing standards, while making an exception to one person.

*braces for much yelling and drama*

O yea and NME has taken TC's track in case anyone was worrying about open spots.

Oshi..

/prepares for impact

I'll keep my personal opinions out of it. Needless to say, I'm not feeling very confident as a member of the MEP to see the flames of war a'churning.

*sigh* Haaaa, well, what am I to do? Really, those scenes go by really fast and it's barely noticeable. But I won't have this track dropped either. Don't sit there and think your the sole person who makes decisions in this MEP. I am as well. I don't think I deserve as many chances as I was given, but what the fuck am I supposed to do when my compy is way below standards compared to most people. I've worked too hard on this track, and if you wanna sit there and point out every little thing in so and so frames that go by so fast that it's not noticeable unless you pause, then fine........my editing skills aren't refined enough for an elitist, but for this MEP it should be fine.

I watched it over and over, and also, LA, Vivaldi and Hagaren never bitched about blocking or anything. Because, most people, don't pause a video halfway through to see if there are any flaws in a certain frame especially when the video is done cause they are watching for pure enjoyment. The quality is there.

I completed my track on time, and had to deal with a lot of shit that I shouldn't have because people decided to jump the gun when I dissapeared for a mere week and totally utterly replace me. If my track isn't in there, then I might as well not have my name in the MEP at all, because it's quite obvious that most people will think that I didn't really have a part in it. A name without something in the video that doesn't have that name attached to it, isn't a name but boasting and taking credit for something that I didn't actually take part in.

I won't lie and say I'm not upset. That all that time getting bitched at and editing and re-editing my track isn't a waste. I guess being treated like garbage from the beginning is all it really boils down too. I'm not dropped. The track stays in. I'm not letting that work go to waste. There was nothing I could do about the blended frames. Everything was as it should be. The settings in Vegas were correct. Disable resample was turned off on every frame. And Frame blending in the setting was turned off. So, not my fault. As for the blocking, it shouldn't have been there. I don't see it in any of my beta's. Unless I pause it at certain frames. This is BS and you know it. My track stays. And really, can not the blocking be fixed in Zarxgui? Besides, I can try and fix some quality issues, but I'm not gonna promise much of an improvement.

there a lot of things wrong in that post, but I will go with:
Anyone from outside the mep that brings in an argument will not get a response from someone involved in the MEP. Someone who says a negative comment will be ignored

As much as you might want that track in doesnt mean your putting all that work to good use.
You can maybe use this as a experience on how important it is to have everything properly set up before starting your project file. All your doing by adding this into the mep is showing how lazy you are to re-do a track that's already got all the scenes selected out for you.
And just because 3 other editors said it was ok doesnt make everything honki doory. The problems are still there and are very noticable. This is what seperate's fucking ROS from band meps. Stop giving yourself excuses saying oh it'l be ok. Nah dude it won't.
And from my knowledge your not in control of this mep anymore?
Dont go saying "I dont wanna do this anymore" and give all the work to someone else while you do a halfass job and think you have the say so of what's going in.

Well that was rude and uncalled for Atari. Oh, and I'm in the MEP, so I can snip all I want. =P

To be honest, you shouldn't have the right to drop TC without consulting the other members. Coming to a huge decision like that is ridiculous. I'm downloading TC's track right now and I'm going to see if what you're saying is true or not.

Code, I'm sorry, but this is something that has been going on for month before you walked in. If you care to read the entire mep thread and ask questions, you're more than welcome to. Keep in mind that the drama goes beyond just this mep thread. A lot happened while you were gone from the Org.

Outside the MEP? Are you F-ing kidding me?

And not in control huh? Hmmm, last time I checked I was a Coordinator as well. LA has no right to just drop me. I've worked hard. I've done my best. And if that's not good enough for LA, who wants every frame to be absolutley perfect then what's the point of even editing at all? Didn't we all agree that this would not turn into an Elitist MEP? Cause it's damn sure looking that way.

And as for lazily making my betas and setting up project files. I make sure all my setting are correct. nothing is wrong with my setting. And EXSphere, do you have any idea how many times I have done, and re-done my beta. The Vandread one and even others I made with different anime's. None were good enough for LA because SOME frames had problems.

I'll be damned if I am going to have this MEP turned into an elitist project where doing your best isn't good enough. Cause, I did my damndest with my track. Over and Over.

I did my best on my track. If doing my best isn't good enough, then this is my last post on the org. A MEP is about having fun. Not being some bullheaded elitist who only cares about top notch quality and EPIC fucking transitions. Although it's a plus, that has never been what this MEP was about.

And also LA, you have no right dropping me cause the latest beta I have seen from you......is your very first Black Cat beta that you gave up on. You haven't met any other beta deadline besides that, except maybe the second one. You have no place declaring a drop. If you wanna go by the rules then fine. I can drop you at anytime as well. I've been patient just as you have.

Yes I can.

O and as for the black cat beta, in case other people were wondering, I did make the deadlines for it. I submitted two betas and then switched tracks. Any deadlines I missed were due to tech issues, in which, I put myself at the mercy of the mep participants on whether I should be dropped from the track.
