If you tried Quick Reply (which doesn't reload the entire page), it may have appeared as though your replies weren't getting through, when in fact, they were actually appearing before my existing post(s). It turns out my posts are often recorded as a minute or two in the future, so if you reply to them fast enough (before the future moment when my posts supposedly came through), your 'reply' appears before my post instead of after. I had to go into the database just now, and swap our latest recorded times in this topic, so that our posts here would appear in the correct order. It's not exactly a vBulletin bug, but rather it's a side effect of me using an extra server when I submit my posts. This extra server doesn't have its time completely synchronized with the main server, and the time is logged according to which server the posts came through. I apologize for any confusion this may have caused.

A lot of these soul-inspired tracks are really derivative. It's hard to make a soul song that doesn't make someone go immediately "Marvin Gaye?"
Noudouteki Sanpunkan has enough soul and funk influences to get that question started, but then the chorus kicks in and it is pure Shiina. Get Lucky is catchy as hell because Pharrell is a glorified jingle writer. But otherwise it is an extremely simple, inane, and repetitive song. I can be more articulate but it is late and I'm going on a road trip tomorrow. |

Glad we can be civil about this though. You still get mad respect points from me for speaking your mind even when other people aren't going to like it. I often think of Maou as the hands of EMF (being the guitarist and whatnot), Glath as the ears of EMF, and you as the voice of EMF.
