Yeah I think you're right in saying that youtube itself compresses files, because what I do is convert my videos to quicktime, and they still look great in that form, and then I upload it onto youtube and it looks relatively terrible. And yeah saving two copies is a good idea. After the vid is done, I had planned on showing the crew the raw file via a dvd so you all can watch it in high quality, but the masses are pretty much stuck with youtube and its pixelation. I'll have a high quality download available through some online source like stage6 (although unfortunately they're out of business now) for those who want it, but most people just blindly want youtube.most likely either the final format you are submitting is being compressed or youtube itself compresses files, ive never really seen a nice clean vid on youtube anyway. you'll have to do some research on the web about different codecs you can install on your chomp. but most vids on the web have to be compressed otherwise no one can load them and its extra bandwith which = $ so
regardless in my later days of recording i'd just save 2 copies, one is the raw format which is ****ing nice but is massive as ****. and then a second form which is just a 10mb vid for the purposes of youtube and ****, you might check youtube they may have a section that tells you what they limit files to or suggestions for quality.
I live in Olathe and I'm pretty sure I'm like the only melee player in the whole town... But anyway I can't complain b/c there are GIG meetings at Johnson County Community College and we get some good melee games going there. You should come to those; I'll even give you a ride to and from as long as you aren't TOO far out of the way. They happen every tues. from 4 until we feel like leaving, usually around 10pm. There are also meetings from 1 to 5 on Fridays, but I can't make those. As far as this coming week goes, I'm not sure if they're going to happen or not due to winter break. I'll let you know as soon as I find out. I don't think I could give you rides to cherry smash b/c I always have to leave early on in the night. In fact, this Sat. I'm being forced to leave even earlier than normal to be home for a sibling's birthdayHey guys I miss me some smash... Anyone live near Overland Park/Olathe? I just moved and need somebody to play with, or need to find some kind of ride out there. It would be appreciated =/
I'm open to the idea Cups. And of course this combo video won't properly capture how good David is. I don't really think that's what combo videos are for; that's what tournaments are for ( & even then, stuff happens). Just wanted to clarify. What does everyone else think about this idea?Z and I talked about this combo video before, here's what I think: this video should be a Captain Falcon Character Overview. It should be a video that shows proper set ups and mindgamey moments that David has had. Everyone knows he combos, but I don't think a cheezy combo video would properly encapsulate how good David is. Still tho, it could be a brutal mindgame into techchasing and stuff, with combos that own.
Also, it should be all new footage, nothing ever seen before. You could show combos working off of grabs, without grabs, edge guards, flashy ****, etc. This video should show people the right way to play Falcon, none of this Scar bull****. Here is the video that gave Z and I the idea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=so41H1AhGqE. This used to be the Darkrain of 3rd Strike, and it is a brutally cool video.

That sounds awesome man. I'd probably be down for for a couple of the JCCC meetings just to check it out. But I don't know, my car should be up and ready to drive again sometime soon, but not sure when. I may only need a ride this week if anyone reads this in time... I have friends going to cherry smash tonight, but it's hard to car pool with them since they're coming from Lawrence and I live in Overland Park =/I live in Olathe and I'm pretty sure I'm like the only melee player in the whole town...

Yeah, now you just have to make sure you mention somewhere to have everyone watch in high quality and it's not bad at all =)Youtube no longer has the quality problems that plagued it in the past. You can choose between normal, high, and sometimes even HQ quality for a lot of videos.
Yeah there's usually a PS2, 3rd Strike, and two arcade sticks there.Yo Jace are you still going to that JCCC meeting tomorrow? I'd be happy to tag along if it's no problem...
EDIT: Omigosh Cups I watched that Makoto video, and some other 3rd strike videos, and I am really interested in learning how to get good. It looks awesome! Is there any 3rd strike machines at Cherry Smash, or do you guys play console or something?
Does anybody have an answer to this?Ok I wanted to wait a little while to post this, due to the possible sensitivity of the situation.....
I was just wondering if Darkrain still had my OC3 DVD....
If you do that's great, you can go ahead and still barrow it until I make some time to get up there to smash again. My car hasn't been the most reliable as of late, don't really want to risk driving it that far yet.
If you do still have it, have you watched it? I know a lot of the matches have been uploaded since, but you should really watch the HugS vs SilentSpectre match, and some others. It's a great DVD.
If you don't have it.....well lemme know.
Some good news is, I should be getting a really large tax return this year (somewhere in the range of five grand). And I will be putting a down payment on a newer car, preferably something reliable and japanese, like a corolla or something
Other than that, what's up guys how ya been? Anybody going to Genesis??
It's not an actual Fire Emblem game. Just a Fire Emblem animation with Bleach characters instead of FE characters.Does anybody have an answer to this?
Also Papermarkis, is that a fire emblem game in your sig? Which one?
That does look pretty badass. Are you playing just melee? I would be tempted to play both if you're paying for it.I still have your dvd ziv!
Don't buy a brand new car. Get a nice used one in the 2003-2006 range.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to genesis. Gonna be keeping an eye on plane tickets for the next couple months.
They're even discussing having SSB64 there. I would definitely participate in all 3 games because this whole thing is too epic to just lose in one game.That does look pretty badass. Are you playing just melee? I would be tempted to play both if you're paying for it.
EDIT: holy ****, plane tickets are $500.
Sweet, you're my hero Darkrain Did you watch any of it?I still have your dvd ziv!
