I don't remember registering an account, but apparently I did. Is there any way I can get my password?

Sadly no, since the passwords can't be decrypted and Jonnty was too lazy to write a 'forgot password?' system. I can delete your account (0 dongs added, 0 uploads) which should allow you to re-register. I'm not sure if it's been tried before, but nothing to lose. Gimme a shout if you want to do it.

V.2 has the API key support required by third party programs, but does anything other than socks the bot make use of it yet? Early in development I had a Win Vista/7 desktop gadget that could play the stream and had some rudimentary support for voting. I've no idea if I still have the source for it, and to be honest it probably isn't worth looking for. HTML/Javascript aren't my thing and it most likely doesn't work with the current API. I'm in the mood for learning something new. Adobe Air seems to be an option for cross-platform stuff; I don't really want to limit it to Windows-only but I haven't been a fan of any Air apps I've used so far. Anyone know a decent alternative?

Look what GWBBQ has done: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3382250&pagenumber=33#post388140345 An all new angle on the "No you shut the gently caress up, Dad!" clip.... some muffled audio from an open mic enhanced that we've never heard before.

The GBS FM motto might as well be "Search first, SEARCH THE gently caress FIRST," to paraphrase PhoolCat.

Nihiliste posted:The GBS FM motto might as well be "Search first, SEARCH THE gently caress FIRST," to paraphrase PhoolCat. It isn't? This can't be iterated enough. Whatever band you're into, someone on the station has most likely heard of it (and added some, but possibly not all interesting tracks). So I heard you say, "ah! But what about my neighborhood band? They're totally awesome and played O'Malley's once and there was a dude from a label there and he said yeah you guys are cool and all". No.

And if it's Arcade Fire, or any indie/hipster/alt music, chances are it's been covered. I've personally uploaded 800 tracks from various Pitchfork darlings.

Peachstapler posted:http://www.badmovies.org/movies/troll/troll4.wav Uhh... so it's a bad song that nobody can genuinely prefer over the utter poo poo (just my opinion) that most of the songs I've heard on GBS FM are, just because it's massively popular now? Is that what your saying? (No, I've never watched Glee.) The only reason, by the way, that I listen to GBS FM at all is that every once in a while there's one or two great tracks that I've never heard before and probably never would have heard elsewhere.

No. GBS-FM and DSB have a long history. Also, it's an overplayed, insipid, terrible song that should be reserved only for singalongs in bars after everyone present has had at least six drinks. Most of what gets played on GBS-FM is terrible, but for other reasons.

I see no Pepe Deluxé and especially no Salami Fever. And only one Opel Bastards track. What is this madness? (Or do I just suck at searching...) EDIT: Seems to me there's not much recent electronicky pop at all. I'm amazed that there's no Pluxus, for instance - don't real nerds upload stuff to GBS FM? 3D Megadoodoo fucked around with this message at 00:42 on Feb 16, 2011 |

Most of what gets played on GBS-FM is terrible, but for other reasons. I'd say most of it's terrible for exactly the same reasons but that doesn't really bother me much. The only tracks that I wish (in vain, obviously) wouldn't play are the ones where it's just bläksatans growling, or droning noise, or Limp Bizkit. I listen to GBS FM at work and most terrible songs are useful in that they help keep me awake but stuff like that has an opposite effect.

Mucho thanks for the mention, Beelz.   bushes posted:drat, well I know what I'm adding next. That would make a lovely centerpiece to a dinner table. How long did that take to do? For inspiration, I put the "Hello" video on loop for several hours while I marathon-sculpted. I can now sing the song and act out the video on command (and probably will always be able to).
