ITG Custom Songs

[zAkAtAk]

I noticed that you have enabled the printing feature of ITG songs. Because the cabinet I play on is quirky, it's hard to save song scores to my USB, which means I have to put them in manually. Because Groovestats does not have this new printing feature, I think I will start using this site instead, just for simplicity and convenience.

That being said, I would really like to see custom songs being put in here. There are a lot of widely accepted songs that the community has come to accept as "official" custom songs such has, Tricky Disco, Infernoplex, Uber Rave, Fer Sure, etc... I noticed that we at one time had the GOMX expansion pack. There are so many community-accepted custom songs that I think it would be beneficial to have them tracked. It would be nice to be able to then print those out so that I way I don't have to rely on my faulty USB/cabinet to remind me of my score on a custom song.

tl;dr, I would really like to see custom songs tracked.

I love a good bit of irony.  We did indeed have databases for both GOMX and KOTC2 available for tracking on the site for a long time, but the owner of DCS specifically requested-- to my protest, mind you-- that they be removed.

I'll pass the message on.  Thanks for posting.

I just think we are missing an element of the game. While people do play ITG1,2, and Rebirth songs frequently, people also play custom songs. Even if we included more tournament packs that would be an improvement (i.e. the new Fort Rapids 4 song list). I would like to just see a lot of "official" custom songs put on this site for tracking. If you need some help getting started on a list of songs, I'm sure I am more than willing to help out. I'm updating my profile with my AIM and stuff if you need to contact me.

Thanks for replying to timely. I look forward to hearing what may come of this!

Agh, for whatever reason I lost the reply I was writing here.  I've been looking into additional ways of furthering the songlists available on the tracker, but little of it is beyond the conceptual stage so it may take time for anything to materialize.  As for additional song data/submission proposals, the more the merrier.  I'll get in touch with you via AIM a little later.

Bumping for status/curiosity.

Have you been able to contact the owner of the site to ask him to allow custom songs?

[A. Rosen]

Not yet.  I thought I had caught him online yesterday but it was to no avail.  I'll give him a call tomorrow and see what his position is.  Sorry for the delays-- had a bit going on in the personal life over the past couple of days, effectively taking my mind away from working on the site.

Feel free to hit me up on AIM!

[zAkAtAk]

Well I would send you an IM, but it appears you are never on.

There's got to be something up, because I'm almost *always* online.  I've tried getting in touch with (thus far) no response, I suppose I'll try again today.
