Piano Arrangements / Re: ShyYoshiGuy's Arrangements (New: Yoshi's Woolly World - Up Shuttlethread Pass)
« on: July 06, 2020, 05:17:23 AM »
Thank you for the feedback. I'll address your comments in my sheets tomorrow. Also apparently the template I've been using is messed up, so the copyright information is in the wrong spot on every sheet. Oops, I'll fix that.
California Games-
How exactly do I fix the repeats? The only way I can wrap my head around this is using letters, so here:
A = m1
B = m2-3
C = m4-8
D = m9-11
D' = m19-21
As it stands the song goes:
A B ||: C D B C D' :||
Should it be?:
A B ||: C 1. D B :|| 2. D' :||
The song's written a little weird, the independent bassline (B) doesn't play after the second loop (D'). In my opinion, using first and second endings makes it more confusing to navigate. But if you still think I should change it, then I will.
Everything else you said about this sheet, I agree and will change as such.
Shuttlethread Pass-
I respectfully disagree about the bassline. Well, my ears are bad at determining octaves, so I concede that I might be wrong about the first beat of m1. However, the first beat of m3 sounds right. It and the previous two notes seem to make an ascending line to me.
Everything else, yeah I'll work on it. Thank you again for the feedback.

The YouTube video calls the piece "Gruesome Towers". It is true that this song plays during that course. However, Snow La Coasta is the first course that uses this song, as well as the only course unlocked from the beginning of the game that uses this song. As far as this OST goes, I believe the six main themes should be named after the first course that uses each theme.

Ok, so, I've learned the entire piece on piano, and I've got something I don't know how to fix. Personally, I still prefer the version without any flats anywhere since it's less confusing. I'll attach that below so others can easily compare:
[MUS] [MUSX] (I still don't fully understand the difference between those two file types, so I've attached both just in case.)
^In that file I changed two things. First, the courtesy naturals in measures 16 & 20 (both staves). Second, it originally contained B# and E#, artifacts of the transposition process, whoops.
I'm sure there's a real music word for this that I don't know. Anyways, this piece repeats a group of notes in three different ways. D#, F, F#, G, and A#. Those notes are visible in measures 15-16 (both staves), 34-35 (bass), and 51-52 (bass). However, in its current state, the repeating section 34-35 uses Gb instead of F# on the way down (C C Eb C F C F# G Bb G C Gb C F C Eb). I chose Gb there since it neighbors G two notes before, and realizing it as F# forces the F two notes after to have a natural. I'm not sure which spelling is best.
However, I feel like all the notes are right, the only issue is how exactly to realize the black keys. Hopefully the sheet isn't far off from being submittable.

Thank you for the feedback. And it seems that did cut down on the number of accidentals significantly, so nice. I've updated all the files accordingly. Tell me if I did something wrong in that process, as I'm not the most familiar with accidentals.

I thought I'd bump this with my file with better formatting since this has been sitting here for a while. I also put an "octave-dropped" bass clef. Whether or not 8vb would be better I'm not entirely sure (also why I shouldn't have done this), but either way I feel this sheet would benefit from moving the lower staff notes up one way or another.

I'm honestly not sure about this song's key signature. Same with this entire OST.
Edit: I’ve realized I should have asked these questions before submitting, sorry about that. On the subject of key signatures, is it bad form to not have one even though it might not technically be C Major/A Minor? Unless there’s something I’ve missed, these sheets will have lots of accidentals in them no matter what signature you choose. This would probably be better asked on Discord.

I'm pretty happy with how this turned out.
I've downloaded the demo since it's temporary been extended to 60 days during... world events. I feel kinda crummy for asking for help and then downloading it. My goal is to complete this game's entire soundtrack, and I've got a lot of time on my hands. We'll see how that goes. I still appreciate if anyone ended up fixing this up for me.

Off-Topic / This might explain some things
« on: January 16, 2020, 04:05:24 AM »
Hello guys. This might be my last forum post ever because I'm finally admitting... My first sheet, Manhole, was plagiarized from a different person's MIDI file. And by this point, I could have totally been off the hook—I mean it's not even on the site anymore—but I don't want it on my conscience any longer, so here we go. Guys, I've got a lot to spill:
On May 31, 2018, I made my first sheet. Just, y'know, googled "Game & Watch Gallery MIDI" and picked the first result and adapted it into a sheet. I didn't realize that those MIDI's actually took people time to make, I thought they were just ripped straight from the game. Looking back, that was a dumb thing to assume, but eh, hindsight's 2018, yeah? (Whoever even still has the archives from the Updater server, you can see in the first file I submitted for Olimar to edit has the same staff names as the MIDI file from that website.) So then, y'know, that sheet gets accepted, and that was a pretty happy day. Over the next month and change, I continued to do that exact thing for Octopus and Fire and Parachute, but luckily I wasn't able to get much progress with those before:
On July 23, 2018, in the Discord server (in #submissions), Olimar, Levi, Maelstrom, Brassman, etc. had a conversation about MIDI's and plagiarism and all that. Boy, that was a scary day because then I discovered everything I did was wrong. Instead of confessing right then, I did what I could to hide it. I deleted the files on my computer, I deleted the Octopus submission that had been sitting there without feedback for a time, I edited incriminating forum posts (these two were the only ones I can remember, but there must have been more). And then I decided I'd develop my ear training enough so that I could just redo Manhole but for real and replace the old one. So that's when:
On July 30, 2018, I decided what I had done to try and develop my musical skills wasn't working, so I created my most infamous forum topic of whole time, lol. My new idea. For those unaware, I became a little hostile asking people to suggest me songs to arrange. This isn't an excuse for being inconsiderate of others, but this will at least explain why. Everyone was asking questions about how I arranged my first sheet and I felt like I was being attacked. That topic lasted literally only four days before I edited every post in it to the same thing and Bree locked it. Altissimo, if you're somehow reading this, I'm really sorry for how I treated you.
On June 1, 2019, after realizing that sheet had been up for an entire year, I finally took initiative to take it down. Well, more like, I sent a confusing forum PM to Latios, not wanting to share the details of my fraudulent sheet, and then like… after two days and getting THC involved, Latios finally removed it. To both of you, that might explain why I was so incredibly nervous to say anything, and uh yeah.
Look, I’ve spent my fair share of time feeling really bad about this and stressing over it, and I’m just done. If you want to punish me, punish me. If you want to remove the Game Select sheet as well (even though that one was not plagiarized), go ahead. I honestly don’t know what “accordingly” and “depending on the circumstances” entail in this case, and if you think I haven’t obsessed over the exact wording of the forum rules, well think again. I’m sorry for all this, and I wish I had the courage to speak up in a matter of days instead of years after learning of my wrong-doings. I recommend you make it more clear in the rules or somewhere the exact nature of plagiarism, so that if there is another person in my situation, they’ll know exactly what is acceptable and the consequences of doing such. Finding NSM and playing its sheets is an integral part of me finding Discord and my dearest friends, and I wish the history of me appearing there was a little more pure, heh, but… it’s too late to fix that. I apologize to and appreciate all who had to deal with me in my transition period to who I am now. Thank you for reading all this. Hopefully I’ll be able to see you guys around. Guguuh!

Ok, that was a really fun game. Prolly the first I was actually invested in.
Bruh, I had a slip. That would have been compelling evidence against me, but no one used it, so I’m glad. I accidentally said the amount the wolves had was how much I had.
hoggers-
gg bro, gg. Please say you don’t actually speak like that. Not sure why you needed to yell at BDS and me when the game was basically over. Overall, good plays.
mikey-
Y u vote me tho? Srsly.
EveningSun729-
Don’t smoke and play, that’s all I gotta say.
Funnygurl555-
Sorry my vote was on you for most of the game.
E. Gadd Industries-
Well, that was an interesting first game with you. Oof with the having to be offline for an extended period of time.
BlackDragonSlayer-
Sorry I turned on you mid-game, but I convinced myself you were wolf. I should have been with you on the MD read.
MadDemon-
