Release id #61617 : Dialogue (Wally's Tetris Poem)

Maybe somebody can shed some light on this: this tune was part of a demo, was never released as a seperate entity. Now, for somebody (Stainless Steel) to make a .prg out of it, then to add it as a new entry to this database kinda strikes me as being wrong. Has this ever been discussed before?

Hmm...Déjà vu indeed!

In short, creating "rips"/releases using HVSC is not the way to go.

if what you say is true then well, stainless steel should be credited for releasing it, and the releasedate should be today, not 2004 =P

but i share your feeling about it, its similar to ripping the title pic from a game, adding a viewer to it (worse, using an existing viewer in this case) and then adding it as a release.

i am almost convinced that this isnt a valid release in the context of csdb.

Oh holy fucking shit, what have i done.

Listen, if my uploading prg's of my favourite tunes (so i can finally make a comment on them and vote specifically for the tune) is going to turn into another one of those csdb dramas, then just delete them and let it rest.

good idea :)

and why not simply write your comment into the entry of the demo it's in? (or alternativly, convince perff that implementing comments on sids is a good idea?)

No Joe, you're the drama queen here :)
We're just discussing database integrity.

Ok, i might be overreacting a little.

But topics like these do have the habit of turning into drama scenes and name calling around here every once in a while.

Thank <insert your entity of choice here> for those moderators, right? ;P

And end world hunger. And heal cancer. And ..

What magical powers does it take to accomplish that task in a mere humans lifetime ? (pun intended)

As i said, i want to comment specifically on the tune and also vote for the _tune_ not for the demo.

It seemed like a reasonable option, since the "executable" fetish is all the rage here.

Here comes the drama.

Please, don't make this a moderator thing again. I meant the entire csdb community.
