Rumble Roses Good Vs Bad Tournament Round 3

Last round, the good girls were facing a formidable task, with only two of them left facing off against six bad girls. Lo and behold, they won both of their matches, and now in the semifinals it's all evened up - one good and one bad girl will wrestle in each match for the honor of moving on to the finals. The matchups:

1/8: Sgt. Clements vs Makoto
1/15: Noble Rose vs Sista A
1/22: Final!

The two winning girls will meet up in the finals; The winner will, of course, receive a special prize if I can work up the courage to pay someone on deviantart to draw her covering her nether regions with the championship belt. Boom!

I'm going to try and post a palette cleanser in between the round that's just concluded and the semifinals (Jan 1st); However, I'm running low on completed videos, so, uh, we'll see. Either way, stay tuned!

** Update **

I just realized January has FIVE Saturdays in 2011; No idea what's going to run on the last week (February will be starting Knuckle Pine month). Fuck!

** Update 2 **

It'll be Noble Rose vs Sgt. Clements for the whole bag of chips on 1/22. People have expressed an interest in having a match between Candy and Sista A to see who comes in as first runner-up, so I'm going to record that as well. The girl who comes in #2 in the tournament by winning that match will receive, like the overall champion, absolutely nothing.

Merry Xmas

I went to read last year's holidays message and noticed something weird: I'm sick at Christmas two times in a row. It's not a stress thing, because I'm so anal I have all the presents ordered, if not wrapped and tagged, by December second. What are the odds? Anyway, next year I'll try to heed my sage advice of last year by not getting sick. What a jerk.

Anyways, I'm getting off topic here. Ahem:

MERRY CHRISTMAS
HAPPY HANNUKAH
KILLER KWANZA
ROCKIN' RAMADAN
WHO CARES ABOUT NEW YEARS

Now I wish I could give each and every one of you a present, but alas. The movie going up Christmas Day features Candy Cane, and unfotuneatly, there's one person who really wants to see her win, and one person who really wants to see her lose, and well, one person's going to get a richly deserved present, and one person is going to get undeserved coal in the ol' stocking. So, to whoever's disappointed, I'll see if I can make it up to you in the new year. For everyone else, happy holidays, and go bearhug your family.

A quick plug

Just a quick note: If you're bored this holiday season, why not check out my OTHER youtube channel? The first series, "Operation: Balls Punch" is a little bit one-note, but I'm extremely proud of the second series, Operation Robots, paticuarly the third in the series, which I think is going to go down as my most enduring, beautiful work. Beautiful and touching.

If you're curious, I'm the guy with the green T-shirt in Operation Balls Punch, and the robot on the left in Operation Robots. The Sarah Palin-looking lady in Operation Balls Punch and pink robot in Operation Robots if, of course, Kitten Hammer. Two episodes also have a special guest star (although I don't think the second episode with him in it's been uploaded yet). I wrote all the episodes (except "Wife is Right"), and she directed all of them, so it shouldn't be long before we get those Oscars now!

I tried (a little)

Since the Knuckle Pine series (FINALLY) turned out so well, I thought I'd go for a P4-esque ONE MORE! and try to get some Panda Moderns videos, one each of On the Ropes and Pit Viper. (Thus the image for this post. Get it? [Spoilers: It's a panda]) Unforchies, these aren't Flash games like the Pine series; They're stand-alone exes, and both of them are too processor-intensive for my piece of shit old PC I've been using to record windows game footage with. (My new computer is a beast that can handle it easily, but I can't make Hypercam record any sound). The resulting videos are de-synched; The On the Ropes one is just plain desynched, but Pit Viper's video is totally destroyed, in a way that I actually find kind of funny. So, sorry, Panda Moderns, no free advertising. Well, unless people are reading this blog post and go click on the links up there. Heh. Anyway, I might be able to use Fraps since these are standalone EXEs (which is the whole reason I was using Hypercam in the first place - Fraps doesn't recognize the Pine exes as games). We'll see; I already used up half a day futzing with these (my cat helped by running in and hitting the one exact button on the keyboard that stops recording in the middle of the first Pit Viper video). Anyway, here's the messed up videos for your enjoyment. On the Ropes isn't too spectacular (in fact I'm not sure why I uploaded it), but take a peek at Pit Viper. Yeeee.

** Update **

Fraps doesn't recognize either game to record, so, so much for that idea. Maybe if I put it on my old laptop. Hmm.

Pine's Bikini Top Stays in the Picture

Finally some good news! You might remember the trouble I was having making some postable (IE, no nipples, which is clearly the number one thing to worry about nowadays) videos out of the Knuckle Pine series of DL Site games. Turns out there was an obvious solution I was missing: Just re-record the matches until Pine actually keeps her top on. In the second game, it will come off if you hit Pine with a strong enough punch (kids, don't try this at home), so I just recorded matches until I had a run of terrible luck at picking numbers and went down to defeat with her youtube-acceptability destroying boobs safely covered. Viola! This might be the only case in history where the starlet's big break comes when the director convinces her to keep her clothes on.

That takes care of the first two games; The third one, Knuckle Pine Turbo, which I got two videos of (I need four total - one video of the first game, one of the second game, and two of the last game makes a month), doesn't have Pine's top fly off, so that was easy. It took a lot of work, but they're all in the can. As an aside, I really do mean to review more DL Site games, but I'll just tell you now that Knuckle Pine Turbo really makes the second game look bad with some commonsensical fixes (I don't include Pine's top no longer randomly coming off a fix, although it did help me record these videos). So that's probably coming up after the RRXX Tournament wraps, which should be - February? Dang, kid. Well, stay tuned until then and enjoy the tournament. I'll know if you don't.

Rumble Roses Good Vs Bad Tournament Round 2

Well, Round 1 is in the can, and I have to assure that even though I like bad girls, I'm as surprised at the results as all of you are. The good girls have been decimated. Out of eight possible slots, only two good girls survived; Makoto and Noble Rose are the only two faces in the entire tournament, facing down no less than six heels. The only good news for the forces of light is that there are so many heels two matchups in this round are heel vs heel, which means at least two are going to be eliminated for the next round. Of course, if two other matches go the wrong way, there will be only naughtiness left.

Next week is probably going to be a break from Rumble Roses videos (since we just had 8 in a row for Round 1). That also means the last match of Round 2 will be uploaded on Christmas, however, which seems a little weird, doesn't it? Well, I dunno, it's not like I have any other videos to post. Huh. Well, we'll see - hit thatdrumroll, please. The matches, pulled out of a hat, are:

12/4: Sgt. Clements vs Mistress
12/11:Makoto vs Rowdy Reiko
12/18: Sista A vs Great Khan
12/25 (Why, it's CHRISTMAS day, sir!): Noble Rose vs Candy Cane

And that's all. Stay tuned; I have no idea what's going up next week before the first match of Round 2, so I better get cracking.

** Update **

Okay, I figured out what's going in between rounds; If you're a fan of hideous polygons, don't miss next Saturday.

Knuckle Pine Censored Boxing (Update: Mother FUCKER)

For a while I've been considering recording some more Windows games; Total Knockout Boxing was a big hit, even though the video quality wasn't the greatest. I've settled on doing Knuckle Pine boxing month, with a match each from Knuckle Pine and Knuckle Pine Dash, and one each from Turbo (which you can apparently play single-round style like the original Knuckle Pine, or three-round style like Dash). This involved a long saga I won't recount here about getting Hypercam 2 to actually record sound, and then getting to record sound that is, you know, synched. With those issues finally vanquished, I was able to records some videos. Knuckle Pine 1 went off without a hitch and I'll lead off the series with that. In Knuckle Pine 2, though, Pine lost her top two minutes into a six minute video, and then she loses her bottoms for good measure. Since YouTube doesn't allow DISGUSTING NIPPLES - clearly, the human body is gross and should be hidden from view - this presents something of a problem. I tried using Windows Movie Maker to censor Pine's protrusions, but that didn't work at all. I got a free program called VideoPad, which works, kinda, but it's very imprecise; you can't make a censor bar and put it wherever you want, you have to add text and add spaces, and it'll add a bar of empty space, like " ". But you can't drag around where this bar is, you have to futz with it by changing the font size, hitting spacebar to make the bar longer, and hitting Enter to double its size. So you get something like this:


Now that's bad but not terrible. What's taking so long is that you have to split the clip every time you want the bar size to change, which it does a lot, since hitting your most powerful attack on Pine send her and her bare boobs flying, and on top of that she starts dancing around the ring later. So the video is, I'm afraid, going to be kind of, uh, bizzare looking. But consarn it, I spent hours getting Hypercam to work with synched motherfucking audio, so I'm going to use it. However, since I can just post the raw uncensored movies on like Rapidshare or Megaupload, I'll put up a download link to the original, un-censored versions on here. Oof!

Anyways, I guess this is all a little premature since this won't be going up until the Rumble Roses XX Singles tournament is finished, and that's got a while to run (Round 1 wraps up on 11/20, and then there's still seven videos to go - a week short of two months). The upside is that gives me a lot of time to procrastinate; I've been trying to censor this six minute video all day and I'm maybe a third done. I need an intern.

** Update **

Never mind; VideoPad ate my quality:


What the fuck. Back to the drawing board, I guess. Arrrrggghhh

** Update 2 **

Well, let's see if I can make a purse of this pig's ear. See if you can enjoy this. May I present a destroyed by VideoPad six minute Knuckle Pine Dash match in which I somehow manage to exactly tie Pine at the end of three rounds, which I think is awarded to her, which is proof that white guys on the internet are the real oppressed minority. Also, inconsistent censoring. (Basically, the file name is totally accurate):
