Tru! Thanks and hope you like it, I STILL haven't listened yet, lol! Long drunk night last night!

[quote=TomTom]We have your mix don't worry and it seems to be complete. Btw if you uploaded us a mix and check back and your mix is not there anymore it just means me moved it. No need to upload us a mix more than one time.[/quote]

Re: >>>> Mercurypromote DJ Contest <<<&

PM encryption or TomTom

Thanx Garrick, but solved it, just in time I think...it should still be in time, even though it's not the one I did for the contest. Great fun when cooledit cooks it somehow...so I sent in another one that's a little older. Hope they still like it, though...

#289047Post 125 of 229

Ummm, so I listened to my upload...yeah, uh, stinky poo. :roll: :shock:

#289048Post 126 of 229

That's what you get you're shit-stirring instead of mixing... :Naughty:

#289102Post 127 of 229

What is this 'shit-stirring' of which you speak...I do not play with poop, or throw feces at my friends when they are bad. However I do drag my ass across the carpet when my butt itches. :shock: :smells l: :RightOn:

Hehehe...me2. Dogs do that, too. It really helps.

This shitstirring I was talking about...wel...imgagine your records turning into poop in your mind when all goes wrong. :toilet:

Re: >>>> Mercurypromote DJ Contest <<<&

I think all contestants should also have a web-cam involved while recording their set....winner must be naked!!

#289146Post 130 of 229

Look at me when I trainwreck a mix...that's more fun, guarantee ya.

#289210Post 131 of 229

[b]Only one day left for entries, keep 'em coming![/b]

#289221Post 132 of 229

Heehee, I know what you mean. Though it's weird, I listened to the mix a second and third time and it's a little better, I just really don't like the last mix, it was clean, but I'd never mixed the track before so it felt weird. We'll see. :rideme:

The link is great! ithank!!! :P

Re: >>>> Mercurypromote DJ Contest <<<&

I just tried to upload my mix and it keeps givin me a "Server does not accept anonymous login"

?????

#289536Post 141 of 229

Maybe because you try to log in without using the login [email]anonymous@mercurynation.com[/email] and your Email addy as password?

#289620Post 142 of 229

Re: >>>> Mercurypromote DJ Contest <<<&

im using login [email]anonymous@mercurynation.com[/email] and my email as the password..

I get in initially.... but when i move my zip folder onto the folder. The login window comes up again saying "Either server does not allow anonymous logins or email address was not accepted"

Any ideas

#289625Post 143 of 229

The upload account does not include moving rights to avoid any mess he he :P . It would have worked if you upped the zip file directly in the directory which you created. I just looked on the FTP and saw a 13 MB file from you..try to resume your upload or choose a different name and up your mix again please.

#289626Post 144 of 229

so is it midnight GMT?

#289627Post 145 of 229

Ok...thanks, I think I uploaded successfully. Do you have it?

#289636Post 146 of 229

holy crap... moving jacks your abilitiy to remember dates.

something that comes in at 1 meg over going to be cut off?

let me know so i can edit the source if needed.

#289674Post 147 of 229

Re: >>>> Mercurypromote DJ Contest <<<&

Just uploaded successfully (I think :?: )

mods: also sent an email to [email]admin@mercurypromote.com[/email] regarding a certain aspect of the mix, would greatly appreciate it if you could get back to me so as to ensure that all is cool.

cheers,

Luke Morrison

#289681Post 148 of 229

do you just drag & drop the zipped file into the incoming folder............

I've been trying it all day and just get a 'timed out' error!

Any advice mods? Or to stupid persons explanation!

do you read at all? :lol:

[quote=Garrick]

obviously not or not enough, but not as much spare time on my hands these days with a little one..............

what about my second question and uploading, do you just drag and drop zipped file and why do i get a timed out error?

#289709Post 151 of 229

anyone having any luck if you go into the 65 minute range?

for some reason, I keep getting around 91MB in size for that range @ 192...I think I finally went back and trimmed off enough to get it down to the 90MB requirement :?

#289720Post 152 of 229

umm I'm having trouble uploading. I'm getting permission denied and I'm using the right login info too... :(

er well I can upload to the incoming folder... I guess this is where you want shite to be?

#289721Post 153 of 229

Re: >>>> Mercurypromote DJ Contest <<<&

Well ShaneLittle,

No matter what they think of it...the mix I sent in was not the one I did for the contest, but been listening to it on the train this evening, and actually it wasn't all that bad, except for one mistake...Got Nelly Furtado on now, with Explode. Good stuff to start your morning with.

[size=6][color=violet]Wake up and feel good![/color][/size]

#289725Post 154 of 229

whew! ok upping now...finally trimmed out enough to get down to the 90MB requirement... :shock: :evil:

Oh well live and learn; round 2 should be 95MB on the requirement as a 70-minute mix is just near that point at a 192 bitrate (unless you all were using a totally different encoder and settings then I was)

oh yea I'm gonna win too :twisted:

#289729Post 155 of 229

I usually mix between 70 - 80 mins. Gives a nicer build-up in the set, take the time to take em higher.

#289730Post 156 of 229

sure if you only spin 8-10 records in a mix :P

can anyone confirm my upload is sucessful?

... how many entries are there?

oh yah I'm gonna win :Naughty: :RockOn:

#289733Post 157 of 229

Relax. Breathe. If its the slightest bit over thats alright.

And if you are having issues uploading please pm one of us so we are aware of your situation.

#289742Post 158 of 229

it should be uploaded. I'm calm.. I <////////>~~~

I guess I got it uploaded. I uploaded to the incoming folder. Is that fine?

#289756Post 159 of 229

damn! I figured it would be a little liberal on the size...:(

But, better to be safe then sorry due to the timeframe; I'd be pissed if I was eliminated because of such... :?

should be finished upping in the next few; speeds were slower then anticipated.

#289761Post 160 of 229

I had normal up... about 30 kbps
