aga also these are not even regualr voice actors it's the musicals, so evebn more so
culinko
i had some 502s today as well as slow loading from mb, but i loaded this one immediately
CatCat
ha i get 502 too reosarevok
culinko
<- special
kepstin-work
CatCat: using the fictional characters has been the accepted normal way to handle this right now - you can add "performed vocal" ars to the people who performed the voice if you want.
CatCat
>_< that was prior artist credit
my god how many times do we need to do this ffor every new thing
reosarevok
culinko: still not entered :p
CatCat
we've been doing it the crazy borked way to overcome limitations i nthem odel way for so long now that perople have forgotern what we made NGS for i nthe first place :/
reosarevok can load the page, but not enter the edit :(
reosarevok: I get 502 as well whne trying
kepstin-work
CatCat: the release is credited to the characters, not to the voice actors/real performers. therefore the characters go in artist credits, and the performers get ars.
culinko
oh
i just opened it
reosarevok
Try to enter it
culinko
tell me what you want to type there, maybe ill be lucky :d
CatCat
but as what
hawke_1
CatCat: “performed vocal” probably
reosarevok
culinko: just "is a performance of"
CatCat
is a recording yo um,ean
reosarevok
heh
True :)
culinko
any attribs?
CatCat
the characters shouldn' even really have artist pages
they don't really exsist
not as a music anyway
hawke_1
CatCat: I disagree.
CatCat
maaaybe minako Aino
if you stretch it
kepstin-work
CatCat: you are never getting rid of those. There is even an rfc going through right now to add artist types for them
CatCat
yes i know
isj
hawke_1
(Not sure for Sailor Moon specifically, but in general certainly fictional artists are fine)
reosarevok
culinko: nope
CatCat
people are so.. arg
reosarevok: i think there might be a genuine bug behind this one
culinko
reosarevok: bah, 502
reosarevok
:(
ianmcorvidae
people are so interested in finding things by what actually matters to them, which most of the time is the character, not the voice actor
CatCat
yes. peopel are stupid
we shouldn't make it *Æeasier* for thme to be stupid :/
but i1m tired now and i need to eat, despite yoshi deciding i'm his chair
kepstin-work
that is so much nicer than the pre-ngs way of doing it - before the real artists couldn't be linked at all :)
kepstin-work is still going around and splitting artists that look like "Character (Vocalist)" into their component parts.
CatCat
hrm, i suppose that's better thna nothing, but I don' ee what's wrong with "Real artist" as "character name"
really
why not
culinko
reosarevok: are edits broken now or just your relationship thing?
kepstin-work
CatCat: because that loses the ability to find things associated with a particular character.
reosarevok
culinko, probably all recording-work ones :/
hawke_1
ianmcorvidae: Would you consider the label to be “Humble Bundle” for the latest HB release?
(for the exclusive anyway)
ianmcorvidae
hawke_1: no idea, heh
hawke_1: I was putting off actually entering them :P
it might be [no label] though, like we do with bandcamp
reosarevok
meh
VxJasonxV
holy crap
ianmcorvidae
I guess humble bundle makes more sense in this case though
reosarevok
502 loading an artist
ianmcorvidae
I'd go with that
VxJasonxV
how many humble *blank* bundles ARE THERE?
reosarevok
500 loading a recording page
reosarevok looks at totoro stats
VxJasonxV
also, I've never been more conflicted on a humble bundle before.
CatCat
kepstin-work: that's a databvase limitation though, and data shouldn't really be changed for that imho
VxJasonxV
Valkyria Chronicles soundtrack :ooo
hawke_1
VxJasonxV: As in, how many different organizations with that concept, or how many specifically from the real “Humble Bundle” org?
ianmcorvidae: Yeah, that’s my conflict as well — I don’t really have any logic for one over the other.
culinko
artist search is going to be 502
reosarevok
totoro looks fine
culinko
aaaaaaaaaand here it is
VxJasonxV
hawke_1, both, actually.
ianmcorvidae
hawke_1: I guess my reasoning here is that it isn't the artists putting their own stuff up on a site (like with bandcamp), it's the humble bundle people going out and looking for people, etc.
then again, Jamendo should be [no label] then, but there we want to track catalog numbers
hawke_1
ianmcorvidae: So the “curation” aspect?
ianmcorvidae
hawke_1: yeah, that was my thought
hawke_1: may be total bullshit, but :P
VxJasonxV
oooooh, neat.
Humble Bundle's offices are really close by.
kepstin-work
I always think of the humble-bundle type deals as "a store took a bunch or albums, shrinkwrapped them together, and sells them really cheap"
then just enter the releases individually, with their own labels if they have them
ianmcorvidae
kepstin-work: the exclusives are the thing though -- for the ones that are released separately, clearly you're right
VxJasonxV
wow, right behind the hotel I stayed at too.
CatCat
I'M SICK OF THESE MOTHA'FUCKIN 502'S IN THESE MOTHA'FUCKIN SEARCHES AND EDITS!
::D
ianmcorvidae
kepstin-work: but some of these are exclusive to this humble bundle
culinko
i got 500s too haha :D
hawke_1
o_O — “Guess Case” icon isn’t loading for me.
culinko
well the site has been slow for me the whole day
kepstin-work
ianmcorvidae: sure, but they're still separate releases in a bundled sale
ianmcorvidae
kepstin-work: yes, that's agreed: but what label do you put for the exclusives within the bundle?
i.e. yes, they're separate releases -- but what label do you put on the ones that are only available as part of this bundle?
hawke_1
Oof, entering a release with existing recordings is *ugly*
“submit cluster as release” — get to recordings tab — lookup acoustID to find the right recording — paste in recording URL for each recording :-/
In case someone wants a Mudhoney live while meh-ing at MB :p
culinko
hmm, i just have a dilemma :) i have one 2CD album. on mb it's there as separate one CD and a "bonus disc". could i create a new 2 CD version from these two? so they remain separate for the people who have only first or second CD and i will have my 2CD edition or it's a bad idea? or is there any relationship so i could relate the second one to first?:)
