BlueSky

Yeah, this was the thing I was after, I was just so darn sleepy words kinda escaped my mind or something. It'd be nice to be able to be flexible with the choices, if it's not too much trouble to the organisers. 😅 I myself tend to pick the remixes on a whim since I don't really know a lot of them, so I just pick the category and try to find a remix for it. Luckily it has worked up until this point the very least, maybe it'll keep on working... that way I do find some nice tracks anyway. But yeah, had a blast. Was epic. Had way too many laughs. Caused even more shenanigans. Almost blew up Motobug with the Earth in tow according to Ryan. Drowned a bridge. Or broke it. Don't remember. You know, the usual Spectacular Motobug weekend. I had the usual. With 120% more ' -things. With 500% more hype. Yeah, it was a total blast. Still feeling the afterglow. Also should I start to refer Polkadi as "the Dragon of Motobug"? 🤔

Yeah, I had fun time as well. It was fun to chat and hype for stuff. And I love the fact I got Reign in. I had a blast and everyone else were prolly facedesking like hell. Too Engrish and all. Also the blue blindness is contagious, don't feel scared to get some treatment to that if it becomes a thing. 😆 But really, liked the fact there was the Sega General, maybe it could be nice to make the restrictions of how many songs per franchise but otherwise it was perfect. Just a bit filled with Persona but other than that pure awesomeness. And yeah, 5+1 could be nice. Maybe it could be like that the 4+1+1 where one could be either or would it be too complicated? Two days is nice and I like how the songs were put together into acts instead of just having all of the songs individually. All in all, I had a blast and I think it was pretty darn cool Spectacular. Right now I'm kinda sleepy so I'll maybe return later if I get anything else on my mind when I get up or something. Night!

Well yeah, Sally and Nicole is/was something I was pretty okay with as well. I don't know really, any pairing that seems like it has grown even semi-believably with characters not rushed in together and them being in-character is okay in general I suppose. Reading some of the stuff again after knowing about it, I think I can see some subtle hints though I didn't pay any attention to those at first but then again I can be sometimes somewhat oblivious especially since I wasn't really looking for any hints anyway... 😅 Well, I was thinking about Sega games in general when it came to the pondering about the fact is there any gay pairings around, kind of funny to know Unleashed had some vibes on it though. I dunno, I've got some experiences with some Sega IPs but not all of them, so I wouldn't really know all off them, though I do consider myself interested in most of those I've checked out. I dunno, I think I get the fact Sonic as a character, and probably the franchise as a whole, isn't something Sega'd be too keen in having any pairs, Sonic's supposed to be free like the wind anyway or something. It doesn't mean I myself wouldn't be okay with them if done well enough though. I dunno, most of the time I feel like I can be okay with many a thing. Only real problems I have are about detachment of the characters when their supposed home universe is considered, it makes me loose all the interest since you know, it doesn't really matter if they're just some random actors hanging around doing their job which is the feeling too much detachment tends to give me. Happily Archie Sonic didn't really steer that way, unlike some games... 😑

Sometimes I get the feeling Sega gives different artistic liberties to different franchises. Sonic seems to be on a tight leash but I suppose they have their reasons, Sonic's feeling nowadays like they're doing their best to keep biggest controversials out as much as possible while having it appearing somewhat bland. Just my personal view anyway, could be due to the fact Sega has done more... interesting choices with other things. It's almost like the spirit of what I liked about the Dreamcast era is still around it's just left Sonic or something. Seeing gay couples could be interesting buut considering how much IDW kept shouting about doing their own thing I wouldn't put it past them to include "no pairings" into doing their own thing... Another reason I'm starting to feel doubtful about how good of an idea it would be to introduce some "old cast" into the IDW verse (partly due to this certain pair I really dig). Though I have no idea, maybe the characters would fit, I have no idea what's going around in there other than a very few opinions of it being somewhat... meh? I dunno, I did read that Cosmo mini series and it was fun and energetic so maybe IDW is okay as well, but weeelll, they didn't have Sega breathing down their necks or anything. And the editorial team is different. ...has Sega even ever made any gay couples game-vise? I can figure out some characters that came out like having vague "man-crushes" but that's about it... though the time around here is what it is and my memory is my memory let alone my abilities of reading between the lines. But yeah, fighting over pairings feels odd. I get the feeling it feels kind of nasty whenever someone breaks a pairing I kind of like by twisting characters in a way they start to feel OoC to me but well, fanfics are fanfics. I'm not going to go on a rampage on Internet over something like that waste of my energy since I feel so flegmatic towards stuff like that. What a wall of text saying nothing really, good job me.

Hoo boy it's gonna be a late night again. 😆 If Sunday's around 6 hours it'll be like what, 4 AM in here in the end. It isn't really anything I haven't accustomed already though. But well, I'm gonna come anyway, gotta have some fun time and see my picks go live. Especially couple of these tracks are something I want to stick around for. But gee, aren't you going fancy this year, gotta appreciate all the hard work and effort you're putting into this one, I hope it'll work out. I'm already getting hyped, the very least my gut is, that is. 😄 Thanks for the organisers putting in so much effort, especially @Polkadi~☆ .

Well, I suppose all the stuff with Sonic's comics "harem" means I should probably be really grateful for how my favourite pairing was handled. Which I of course really am. Could I possibly ask for more considering it survived the Super Genesis Wave and all? There're only so many pairings I hold any interest towards anyway all the different franchises I'm interested in considered. And now it's i limbo, permanently. Oh well, time for me to get to sleep I suppose. It's already like over 5AM in here anyway.

You know what: ... it would've been fun to be able to pick one of those millions of different Receive Yous as a Remix song but I digress, rules are rules. I'm happy Reign made it to the list anyway. I'm just way too sleepy anyway.

Weeeell, I wasn't planning on cutting this close but stuff came in way sooo... Let's see what I can pull off within less than half an hour... I'll add my edit in here as well because ShtH wasn't filled yet and I'm a neurotic person. 2. Waking Up (Shadow the Hedgehog) 3. Blizzard of Coast (Sonic Shuffle) 4. Seven Rings in Hand (Sonic and the Secret Rings) Remix 1. Blue Sky Zone (Sonic Jump) (It says it's practically a remix soo) Remix 2. Skies of Arcadia Remix - Fantasy Haven [Battle 1, Bombardement](Skies os Arcadia)(SEGA General)

...I just remembered this was a thing and decided I need to make one fast request before the general slot is full; 1. Reign (Yakuza 0) (SEGA General) Because. I was arguing back and forth with couple of other tracks but decided, after a long thought, this would be pretty awesome to include even when it isn't as classic as "Receive You". Even with all the Engrish this kicks butt like the fight it was serving for as the background track as far as I'm concerned. I will come back to throw out more choices later though. I seriously love these Spectaculars. 😁 Probably one of the best things in here. Sorry I'm not so funny to ask for that Get to the Top! Remix of the End karoke track. ______________________EDIT_____________________ADDED_______SOMETHING___________________________SORRY__________________________ Ookayy, this is somewhat of a bother, but since I'm not too keen on double-posting, I'll add this other request down here... Sorries for the inconvenience and impracticality, it just occurred to me... 😅 2. Waking Up (Shadow the Hedgehog) Yet again, sorries...

From one thing to a flower pot, I just remembered this one Pre-SGW thing again; whatever happened to that language implant Sonic got while in space? I can't remember if I've already wondered about this in here at some point, but you know, that thing was kinda interesting, but if my memory serves me right it never went anywhere far... Sonic just had a talk with his dog and that's all I can recall, kinda felt like they forgot about it at some point. Though I suppose there aren't many that are too interested about this kind of details to begin with, but well...

Whatever there was in store, I suppose it'd have been something I could actually care about. The solicits were pretty promising and there were characters I actually liked that didn't sport Sega plot armour. That's kind of killing most of the tension and when I'm reading comics I'd appreciate there'd be some bits I couldn't be too certain of, otherwise it'd be pretty boring. As much as I felt sad about Antoine getting Metal Sonic blown straight onto his face it was still interesting and exciting. In a way. As an example. My newest conspiracy theory was Sega kept ArchieSonic around just enough time to get the world record broken.

I dunno, that stuff inside the "patient" looks more pleasing to my eyes than some of the stuff I've seen before when it comes to this project. Though it would've been funnier to see some a bit more alien stuff in there, like, there're aliens that resemble humans way more on the outside yet have some different stuff still, like gee I dunno, two hearts? Kanske? It wouldn't be too farfetched to think maybe these guys could have something interesting going on inside them, though the patient seems to miss lot of stuff but then again the stock photos kind of leads me to assume things, but then again, assuming makes and so on... it is hard to be politically correct in this kind of case. Though I suppose it'd be for the best if Penders would leave certain Brittish/Welsh series alone... I dunno, actually, this picture in general would prolly be on the better side, but those background stock pics kinda make it feel a bit cheap to me. But yeah, why don't they design chairs with holes in the backside of the chair in the first place... well, I suppose their design culture doesn't consider the aspect of usefulness or whatever then... Though I suppose that Star Trek reference is the most likely case in here, it fits into his track record after all.

I was more thinking about why my memory decided to remind me of that little detail... sorry about my non-nativity. 😅 But whatever, you're prolly right anyway in what you said.

Well, dunno 'bout you guys but if it's interesting, absurd is fine. One of my favourite tubers claim he's a dadaist after all... And yeah, I suppose it was the best way they could explain the grampa Gerald thing after they estabilished Eggman's fatherline before that happened. Can't really blame them or can I. Like, I dunno, I get over-excited whenever I start over-explaining the concept of space-brain-squids to some careless friend/random person I've known for couple of minutes. I guess I'm crazy. Don't send an ambulance though. But yeah, I suppose one good way to tell Sally and Antoine apart during that time just from their backs is prolly the hair, especially in this sepia coloured case, since Sally has way longer. I dunno, I sometimes spend 10 minutes over-analysing a page or something. Now I remember how girls ran after Elias sometimes, like really. Dunno where that came from.

Well, the only joke is the fact how it looks nowadays like everything's decided by the cow selling between Germany and France. And now that UK's leaving there isn't any other big countries left besides the Southern ones that could potentially say anything. And maybe Eastern countries since they seem to be able to pull the rope in same direction. It's the only way we're screwed to be frank. EU was a nice idea but the fact every important thing gets decided by just two big countries is making it seem kind of, false advertising? Like, wasn't this supposed to be an European Union, not an Union Where Germany and France Decide What Union Does and Says? Or is it EU just because UWGaFDWUDaS and such combinations would be too hard to spell? Like, I have been told one of the reasons Finland started to get into the EU in the first place was the possibility of some kind of semi-military backup in case someone tries to invade another country or something. Some say our ruling people should've stopped the negotiations the minute it became clear there was no real guarantees about any kind of help in case of invasion and go to talk to NATO instead. I'm kind of happy that curved cucumber directive way back when didn't happen after all, like why it's so important that all sold cucumbers should be straight ones? Don't those guys ever go shopping, like over half of the cucumbers I've seen have at the very least a small curve, some are freaking boomerangs. I think this proves EU can sometimes see it's being a bit too silly and stop it before it's too late. But well, I suppose it's something that there's been peace this long in EU or something, it's kind of unusual. European countries may not look like that now but their histories are written with blood. Lotsa blood. But well, this article is still pretty crazy, like why are the record companies shouting about losing money because of YouTube when they can claim videos they don't even own without any consequences anyway? I suppose the more they eat the hungrier they get. Not EU's brightest moments at all. And it's not like the US doesn't look like an even bigger joke at the moment... not at all. Nothing personal, had to say it out loud once though. Now I wonder could I actually make a working boomerang out of a curvy cucumber...

Soo, anyone having any experiences with Shueisha's Manga PLUS app? It does sound pretty interesting, especially if it's a legal choice. I could actually probably read One Piece on the release pace. I'm not going to complain, we're pretty close in here, the latest Finnish edition volume came last week and it wrapped up the Whole Cake Arc. Jeez was there some interesting stuff in that volume.

I dunno, to me it felt like it was no longer canon in sense of the continuity reboot and the FF pretty much forgetting all the stuff that happened in the old one. Like, to them they didn't remember it happening anymore, so in-universe way, one could say it didn't happen..? Does that sound any bit logical? Like, we know it happened since we read it thus it happened to us but since they as residents to that world don't have any real ties, physical or mental, to that continuity anymore (other than some oddities from Blaze's place perhaps) it didn't happen to them if we consider them in their own universe, or something? 🤔 I could be wrong with my interpretations though... I'm no native and all that jazz, I think you might've noticed it by now already, considering the fact we don't have any prepositions in my native language for example... So yeah, prolly I should stop guessing what others mean, I could get it so wrong... 😅 Now I have an earworm in form of a-ha's "Maybe Maybe", nice. But yeah, I think Mr. Flynn's love to the franchise is so big the hell'll freeze before he wants to stop, or something... kinda cool I think.

. . . Mentioning blowing up Antoine so casually makes me cry man. Other than that, this is pretty interesting, I do think I see where he's coming from and I think he managed to pull the pair-restoration pretty well, as far as I'm concerned. I dunno, Khan thing would've probably been interesting, though I suppose I'd be kidding if I'd say it would be better in my opinion than the usual Sonic and Sally I suppose (though that isn't my OTP either, I think you all know what's my real Sonic OTP), but the adult reasons are there and I can get where all that thinking is coming from. Yeah, pretty interesting. Like, for real, nice insight, I can appreciate it and all. But seriously, blowing up Antoine, the only way to make people understand they might like him if I recall the BK forums posts right... I wonder if they'd managed to get him in on the post-reboot if they'd actually killed him like they intended at first..?
