One quick point, though:
Do you understand the concept of a thought experiment?
Because that's pretty much what this was.

People were bound and determined that big companies don't care, but in a hypothetical scenario, when challenged to defend that position, they said it's not worth the risk. To say it isn't worth the risk implies that there -is a risk to begin with.

If I challenge you right now to open the nearest window and yell "I'm a hemophiliac!" many people won't bother, but they won't be refusing because they're afraid of harm. They'll be refusing because it's silly, or because they just flat can't be bothered. Know why? Because while yelling "I'm a hemophiliac!" out your window might draw stares and make you sound weird, it also won't constitute a threatening action of any kind. It is a zero-risk action, so refusal will not be based on an assessment of reprisal.

Your reaction to my fictitious proposal to report CP to Nintendo, even after I proposed it as an experiment, exposed that there is, in fact, a risk in doing so. In fact, I'd even argue that your vehemence on the subject suggests that you know damn well that the risk is bigger than perhaps you'd like to credit, but it's easier to maintain the fiction that big companies don't care than it is to test that theory. It does not mean I wish to do it (in fact, did I not say that I'd prefer not to?). It does not state that I think it's best. So all your talk of how I'm risking the community for one game just tells me that you missed the point entirely. You were so focused on how dangerous and awful and self-centered and whatever else my actions would be that you failed to note that I have not acted, and do not intend to act, in this capacity at all.

Basic psychology at its best. Thank you for demonstrating the efficacy of thought experiments.

I'm sorry for not possessing the requisite telepathy or telemetry necessary for me to realize that your windows don't open. I didn't mean to exclude people in your predicament, since I'm sure that yelling that you're a hemophilic is something you would otherwise be potentially willing to do. Heh.

@Jayde, I just did it. Now what? XD

I think that raises an issue. Unless pragma is willing to allow us to do this, we really can't do much. To be frank, the dev team would have be willing to flip that switch. I suppose we could go forward and see what pragma's answer is after we complete the project, though. It would take a couple of months to  do, after all. And things can change in a couple of months. Plus, it might give all of us practice in recreating a retro atmosphere. What do all of you think?

I did write a reply to this but deleted  it, just in case anyone saw it, it was written before defender's reply and since I fully agree with him I didn't want this to continue any longer. I don't think there is anything else to say regarding the original topic, but if someone else has anything to add, the topic should now return to it's original purpose.
I have one suggestion in fact. Maybe you guys should not cancel this project. Maybe what we should be doing is designing an alternative soundpack for the game. This pack won't be used in the game, but why not keep it just in case something goes wrong and the sounds do need to change due to somehow the game being taken down? So as a sort of backup, alternative pack for Crazy party that might never be used, but perhaps it can be useful at a certain point in case CP gets into trouble. People working on this in this case should of course understand that they are doing it purely for their own enjoyment and that the pack might never be in the game, but if an issue arises they will know they have contributed a part in keeping CP safe.

After seeing 85, I think it might be more worth while. In addition to the time difference between now and this project's completion, a part of modernizing and mainstreaming the audiogames community is bringing things up to legal code. Eventually, people are going to take notice of our little corner of the world. In fact, they must if we want accessibility to be more than that thing that some sabre  rattling minority rattles over. If we want to  be taken seriously, we must modernize. That means sacrifice. At least if this gets done, we can lessen the blow of the inevitable.

Heh, modernize the ancient forum software first and then talk about modernizing the community...
But anyway I digress.
See the problem  is that you can't just have 2 separate versions to download, it isn't as simple as that. The reason why sound modifications of any kind aren't allowed is quite simple, and it is due to the online play. So imagine we are playing, you are using the audiogames legal version and I am using the official download. Now, let's focus on battles, since that's where the issue is most noticeable, though there are a few cases in minigames too. Let's imagine you play normalisation, and your normalisation sound lasts 2 seconds, while mine lasts 5. You will have 3 seconds of a sinchronisation issue during which the game won't be doing anything, and the one with the shorter sound will always think that the game is buggy and doesn't work right. In addition to this, it gets quite annoying if such sound differences add up too much. The only solution is if this was a specific version and then only audiogames download can play against each other, but this is in my opinion already very limitting and is already putting me off downloading it in the first place, knowing that I won't be playing any other user who isn't on this forum. In my opinion too much trouble for little benefit.

I'm behind 90 on this one. Let's go.

And what purpose will this serve? Ultimately, it's up the devs whether they want to add in the new sounds or not. What if Pragma decides not to? All that work down the toilet.

Well in the skype group, he basically said that he doesn't see the point to changing them. So to those who were getting involved in this, better stop before you waste more money and time.

Whoever said you need wayback machine to access the mods page,
https://audiogames.net/page/mods
the only thing you need is to clikc the sitemap link and there it is. Granted, most links are broken, but Top speed cars seem to work.

he is giving the option, if the audiogames.net forum decides to do so. You are saying that if he don't agree to remaking the sounds all of that will happen. just leave things as they are just now, the game as been here for 4 years now, and what you're doing is conditionating him with agree with the sound change, or the game will be removed
