Sorry, that's crap. I can easily play chords with an octave + third in between.

What are you, an Aipom?

GreekGeek

Hahahahaha. That one's great, seriously. Although I'd said an "Ambipom". I have two hands you see ;)

No, just a tall person with exceptional large hands :D

SirIngusBingus

What the hell's an Ambipom?

Oh yeah, that's one of those stupid evolution Pokemon that they added without telling anybody.

GreekGeek

Exactly. The idea of "we can't be original, so let's just create an umptiest evolution of a Pokémon that didn't evolve before".

Wow, I go for a day and a half, and all that in page 3 happens.

Just going by what someone told me.  You must be an exception to their rule. :P

GreekGeek

I believe that's what some one told you, but I think it's incorrect :-[

Like the Sam Waetford's Banjo Kazooie theme where the right hand played fast 16th note arpeggios over 2 1/2 octaves(without 8va not to mention) and polka style left hand parts with eighth notes spaced almost two octaves apart.  I think it was fixed, but THAT was impossible.

Octave is standard reach limit on songs. Some people can reach farther than that, but we can't be hating on them tiny-handed little people. Octave is a good standard, which is why we use it.

And welcome back Nintendude.

Unplayable is the Princess' Secret Slide by Gori Fater.  Really unplayable.

Ive re-made Sam Waetford's BK theme arrangement, but nobody  has left me to submit it... the 8vas in the LH were completely fixed, and some wrong notes were fixed too..

Super Mario 64? Possibly the one on GameMusicThemes?  :P This makes me want to revise the 'Slide' arrangement already on the site...

KefkaticFanatic

Yes, that one.  And Greek, do you mean chords like the ones in Rachmaninoff's Prelude in C# Minor?  If so, those aren't a problem at all.
