Would you play a game where...

[Vicboy]

You guess the song...

5 seconds hint.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

What?

 

[Arvedui]

It would be different. I don't know how fun it'd be. But it'd definitely be interesting.

I would try it, just for the sake of trying it.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Is it like "The Weakest Link"-custom game...?

 

[Xarwin]

Would you create an illegal game?
Music can be extracted out of the map for own use.
Even if it are small parts, they fall under the right of the creator.

Aw come on, don't be a douchebag. I'm sure everything will be fine as long as you don't say it's your music.

 

[Kwah]

Your map would have to be HUGE.

 

[Arvedui]

Yeah the filesize would be huge.

And as per "illegal," a lot of maps use sounds from outside sources. No one complains that those are illegal.

I guess every LotR map made that uses music and voices from the movies should be illegal.

And what about Septimus' maps? A lot of the Spartan ones use voices from the movies.

I don't see it as a problem.

It's not like he'd be claiming it as his own. The idea would be to guess who actually made the song and what the title is, I'm guessing.

 

[Xarwin]

I'm not talking about Septimus, I just respond because I saw this thread.

My suggestion: Start singing and import!

 

[SanKakU]

i assumed he was just going to put in lyrics of the song in the map and ask people to guess what song they were from, and then they would score a point if they named the song faster. and it would be alot like some of those trivia bots that ask various melee/dota questions about wc3.

 

[TheBlooddancer]

Even when singing, the text is also copyrighted.

 

[Just_Spectating]

Also, you couldn't have a lot of songs and your game would die in about a week of playing.

 

[SanKakU]

i know people do karaoke machines so i don't think a map spitting out lyrics is a big deal. but yeah if you're playing the song in the map it's gonna be a bad idea.

I haven't decided how the players should be eliminated but yeah, somehow.

Even 5 seconds? Come on, you think Run Kitty Run paid rights to put the song In The End by Linkin Park? I don't think so.

Your map would have to be HUGE.

A 5 Second song is just 39 KB. So I can fit in about 150 songs? Remember that just because you put 4000 kb worth of songs, it doesn't mean its 4000 kb worth of map. It compresses somehow...

Not lyrics, that would be damn too easy, I will put the 5 seconds start of a song. You know, the one without lyrics?

Also, you couldn't have a lot of songs and your game would die in about a week of playing.

Yeah, that's one thing in my head... But I can fit in about 150 songs compressed. And I can put different questions like what band, what year, what song, what album. But that would be way harder... erm



I think you guys don't know what I'm thinking about ?
