And interestingly we disagree here :)
I don't care at all if the spread disk was ripped apart or not as long as the release is complete and working.
C'mon - swappers are belonging to the dumber brew - still you like to get the disk contents dictated by them? :)

hell no, different games should get different entries ofcourse - i was just referring to the badass habit of "cleaning" disk images from stuff that doesnt "belong" there. i'd like to see the images as they were. totally unrelated to wether notefiles are releases :)

Now we're saying put two different releases from two different groups in one entry?!

According to what I've read here, I can make an entry for "Badass Game" include "Shitass Game" on the same image and add "w/other game" in the title and it's good.

WTF is going on?!

(whether or not a notefile is a release, I'm not arguing that)

i totally agree with phantom too - and i absolutely *hate* when people rip apart spread disks before uploading. pentacle giana sisters and to be on top cracks DO belong on the same disk.damnit. =)

Sorry Phantom, my comment was actually meant as a reply to the ones before yours. I actually do deem your suggestion a good thought!

It's not a bother to me at all. I simply thought it was a dupe file.. If it's not, leave it up. I don't care either way since I'm not the one hosting or storing any of the files here.

Why, ok, go ahead and delete it - sorry that I bothered; if it is considered a waste of time, so be it.

I would say this. If the file you have has the notefile, and the original release doesn't, can this release be added to the original's listings of downloads with perhaps a slight name change (say... w/notefile)?

bugjam: the general idea IS "no" for notefiles. if they are somehow valueable or interesting, then add them if you must. but for the vast majority of them, that is simply not the case.

Intelligent people... well, no - wrong aproach obviously.

Really - is this worth more than a comment or trivia line on the actual disk upload???

There are TONS of things here to improve, real releases which could use some attention, screenshots and maintenance - why even waste time on files some swapper added?

A release is worth a complete .d64 - period. Whenever it's just artillery duel at 50 blocks - thats definately worth it.

Would you copy this off and sort it somewhere seperately?

Yes, there has been lots of crap released over the years - what´s the problem? This is not the first contact note being added to the db. If YOU don´t consider it a release, then delete it - but I see it differently (otherwise I wouldn´t have added it). If we don´t want contact notes in here, good, let´s state it as a rule (if a majority agrees), so everybody knows. And ok, I am asking too much here, but I would really appreciate if not everything that is disagreed upon leads to insults of some sort. *sigh*

*bang head against monitor*

Which part exactly here is worth crediting? Loading the notemaker? The silence code for $d418 on the music area? The whining english text?

Counting this as a "release" is humiliation towards any true scener.


Edit: *Faggots* - go ahead and make csdb the junkpile you want it - but sometime soon someone will erranously pass me delete permission.

_sigh_

It *is* the same file, as I just copy-pasted the dl link. So no space wasted . ;-)

Same or similar disk image, but clearly two different releases. Intel Outside 2 by Sanity and Read It! by Banshee, hence two entries in the database.

The only difference between your file, and the one I mentioned earlier is your file is a .d64, while the other is zip-code (!1,!2, etc). Otherwise, the contents on the disk are exactly the same. I can't say the text is the same in the magazine because I'm not good with german language.

The download is the same, because the file apparently got spread together with the mag. But I think that doesn´t prevent it from being counted as a seperate release.

Same as: Intel Outside #2
