iDOLM@STER 2 + S4U request thread

[Kona-Beat]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTmcXp2pnK4 <- Kyun Vampire Girl - Mami Haruka Hibiki (im@s1) (C 04-16) (A Hd-30 Bd-29 Ar-31 Lg-29) (St 09)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shfZCQaGPxc <- Honey Heartbeat - Yayoi Makoto Chihaya (im@s1) (C 04-14) (A Hd-26) (St 22)

Well, after that run I'll be picking up smaller batches of requests. This one will be picked up at some point, although I must be the only person who's heard the song for over 36 hours straight.

For the record, I was actually talking about Vampire Girl. Honey Heartbeat I've only clocked about 24 or so hours.

Thank you!! :3

[Setsuna]

This is also on the general request plate, and I'm just adding them here in case someone else has any interest in them:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwYdikcrAps <- Ai Like Hamburger - Chihaya Makoto Ami (im@s1) - (C 04-03) (St 13)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVbeTTv4qHY <- Ai Like Hamburger - Yukiho Ritsuko Iori (im@s1) (C 01-07) (St 15)

And now I move onto L4U work. If you'll exuse me.

[Setsuna]

Here are my (second four) STARRY ANGELS requests:

(1)
Honey Heartbeat
Haruka, Yayoi, Iori, Mami, Ami (im@s 1 notation)
Costume: 03 - 16    (the new red-blue colored)
Accessories: Bd 03
Stage(Q): 2

(2)
The world is all one
Haruka, Yukiho, Yayoi, Takane, Azusa (im@s 1 notation)
Costume: 03 - 05
Accessories: Bd 03
Stage(Q): 3

(3)
The idolmaster 2nd Mix
Ritsuko, Mami, Ami. Haruka, Yayoi (im@s 1 notation)
Costume: 03 - 08
Accessories: Bd 03
Stage(Q): 4

(4)
Kosmos, Cosmos
Haruka, Yukiho, Yayoi (im@s 1 notation)
Costume: 03 - 13    (the light blue one)
Accessories: Bd 03
Stage: 06

(About the last one: last time I originaly wanted for Kosmos, Cosmos the C:03-13 costum but I somehow I had writen C:03-10. To don't be to similar I've changed Yukiho and Yayoi position.)

I hope you can do in the next few days, Setsuna .

I'm running somewhat ahead of schedule on several fronts (My MAD assignment proved to be relatively faster than expected) - I will be thining out requests here since if I leave this place for a week I'd probably return with five million requests. This set will be taken.

That and I'd like to get everything I can completed before I find out if I get an E3 posting duty anyway.

[Setsuna]

This is my second request... I tried again with the longer compendium formula this time

Character: Makoto
Song: Kyun! Vampire Girl
Costume:    (04) - (16)
Accessories:    Hd(01):(23) Bd(02):(30)
Stage: (08)
Additional notes:
I'm wondering, can you shoot it in the way that it's like, the full body shot of her, but it happens to go sideways? Do you know the camera angle I'm referring to? A video that has it is
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAaoacj6koc
And I'd like this angle so I can put it on my ipod touch. But if that's not doable, that's okay n_n

Now THAT one's a challenge if I've seen one. I've been grinding through the regular requests, but this one's a technical challenge, and I LIKE technical challenges.

This one will require you to give me more information, because I'm thinking of at least three ways of doing it, but I'd like to ask a few questions first.

Firstly, do you happen to know the native maximum resolution for your ipod touch? I don't have the technical specs of the ipod touch (I don't own an apple product) but I'd need to know the resolution so I can calculate the aspect ratio of the device.

I don't think I can actually provide a youtube video for it (I suspect I'll not be able to upload it correctly, and youtube will just decimate it), but what I WILL do is (Once I hammer out the details) provide a customised file for your use.

I can see how the shot was constructed in both the camera angle used and the cropping (the video isn't actually natively 1280x720, but rather a zoomed in shot of Live for You's screen) and then rotated 90 degrees, and consequently resized back to the 720p standard. (The Iori loading screen was cropped in)

It may take a while (Somewhere in the vicinity of a week or more, since I'm only deriving this from principle) but would you like a fully customised job? If you REALLY want, I can even attempt to snatch a Makoto loading screen for you just to tack on at the start.

I'll need to know how big you want the file, and I'll see what I can do for you.

Let me know if you want this one to be picked up, and I'll need what answers you can provide for me before I can get to do serious work on it.

Song: Kyun! Vampire Girl

Stage: Any
Note: Zoomed all the way out for choreography


Song: Ai Like Hamburger
Idols : Ritsuko Akizuki
Costume: Any

Stage: Any
Note: Zoomed all the way out for choreography

I would do it myself but i'm broke until Anime Expo is over.  So no DLC for awhile. :<
So, if anybody could pleeeease do this for me!  I would be very thankful and you don't need to flip the videos, I can do it myself.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRLkujRk3MY <- Kyun Vampire Girl - Ritsuko (C 04-05) (A Hd-02 Bd-30) (St 02)

As promised, I reserved the right to make it as absurd as possible. I needed a laugh at 4am anyway.

... Flip the videos?


Edit: Oh right. Brain's not fully working.

[Setsuna]

I haven't tried to do a request since the compendium was introduced, so hopefully I'm doing this right ^^;;

Song: Me ga Toki Au
Miki, Chihaya, Takane (im@s 2)
Costume: 01-08
Accessories: Body-10
Stage: St 06
Note: Zoomed all the way out for choreography please <3

I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but it used to take me about 30 seconds to request a song and just now it took me about a half hour to figure out all the shorthands, etc... if I'm just looking for a simple request, is it necessary to go about using all the codes? Just curious :x

For most part, the compendium was designed to standardise requests, and more to the point, it was designed to ALSO accomodate very complex requests. I've seen some curveballs here, but to this point they've been relatively minor... for now.

The less time I spend puzzling out your request means the more time I can spend on other people's, and it generally reduces error rates down to two factors - Mistake of item quoted at yours, and "Uh, I had an Azusa moment" on mine. It eliminates "Well, I THOUGHT you wanted this..." as a error, which happens more than I'd like, and I DON'T like leaving a job done badly.

Cael K. guessed correctly that was one of the reasons I introduced the Compendium here, even though it was designed for MAD/Specialist PV use. It's easier to treat the thread as one person that's massively schitsophrenic and just batch them up.

For your use, stick with the longhand method of quoting.

Shorthand was designed for file sorting, and or bulk requests. I reply in shorthand because my file names are... surprise, surprise, in shorthand.

Or the other way to explain it is this - I've currently got about 190 items in the im@s 2 general requests archive. You know any OTHER way to cleanly sort out and describe that many im@s videos and still have a good idea what's in each one?

[Setsuna]

Just to have a bit of fun, I'll put out the stats of my general requests archive so far:

This was compiled BEFORE the 11 that are being uploaded or processed as we speak are added:

11x Ai Like Hamburger (With 2x duos, and 9x trio with 5 wearing the same costume, but with different accessory loadout)
4x Alice or Guilty (2x Touma with different stages, and 2x Jupiter with different stages)
9x Do Dai (1x solo, 1x duo, and 7x tro)
9x Go My Way (1x duo, 8x trio)
14x Honey Heartbeat (5x trio, 9x Quintet with 2x3 of them sharing the same stage AND the same costume)
6x i (1 solo, 2 duo, 3 trio, with the duo sharing the exact same team)
8x Kiramekirari (1x solo, 1x duo, 6x trio)
3x Koi wo Hajimeyou (3x Jupiter with different stages)
10x Kosmos, Cosmos (1x solo, 2x duo, 7x trio with a triple sharing the same costume, with different accessory loadout.)
21x Kyun! Vampire Girl (3x solo 1x duo, and 17x trio with... Well, you can probably guess this one. Several matching costumes, more than a couple of perfect team matches, more than a few stages recycled, and a lot of near misses too.)
14x Little Match Girl (3x solo, 1x duo, 9x trio with two pairs of 2 teams idential, one matching reshuffle too and a few costumes shared.)
13x Me Ga Au Toki (4x solo, 2x duo, 7x trio with accessories, the stage and the character (Iori) in the solo shared.)
9x Megare (2x solo, 1x trio, 6x quintet with a near miss in a reshuffled team, and an accessor setup shared.)
10x Meisou Mind (2x solo, 1x duo, 7x trio)
5x My Best Friend (2x duo, 3x trio)
6x My Song (6x trio with one being a team reshuffle, and one sharing the same stage and main costume and half the accessories)
7x Relations (1x solo, 2x duo, 4x trio with a team reshuffle, and oddly enough, the same base costume.)
3x Shiny Smile (2x solo, 1x trio)
7x Smokey Thrill (1x solo, 3x trio, 3x quintet)
6x The idolm@ster 2nd-Mix (1x solo, 1x trio, 4x quintet, with one team reshufffle, and different teams using the same costume loadout)
6x The World is All One (1x solo, 1x duo, 1x trio, 3x quintet with one team reshuffle.)

If nothing else, now you know why I'm already over Kyun! Vampire Girl already.

That's a scarily lot of requests posted up so far (And maybe 10-15 internet PV previews.)

[Logan]

Setsuna, I believe my Kosmos, Cosmos request doesn't have the correct accessories ^ - ^;; I asked for a full white-cat set for the accesssories~ It's not a big deal, but I'd like it to be corrected whenever you are done with other requests!

Also, for fun, I've decided to make a sub-group to Desserts They're called Eclaire~ xD;; [/endsilliness]

Now THAT one's a challenge if I've seen one. I've been grinding through the regular requests, but this one's a technical challenge, and I LIKE technical challenges.

This one will require you to give me more information, because I'm thinking of at least three ways of doing it, but I'd like to ask a few questions first.

Let me know if you want this one to be picked up, and I'll need what answers you can provide for me before I can get to do serious work on it.

Ooh boy n_n''' Sorry, I didn't realize how complicated it would be to do so.

First off, the resolution is 960-by-640-pixel resolution at 326 pixels per inch.
I don't really understand some of the things you talk about, but if you know a way to get that video with that shot angle (which is really only for easier viewing purposes on iTouch), then I'm happy with whatever you manage to do.
I don't think the size of it is an issue, because it's a 32gig iTouch, and even with all of my stuff on it now I've only used about 4gig.
The Makoto loading screen idea is very cute, but if it's too much of a hassle I'm not bothered by not having it n_n
Also, don't worry about taking your time with it. I really do appreciate whenever/if you can do it.

Azusa moment I think. Sometimes I can't count. I really need to stop hanging around Takashi... No compendium, or standardised request system can withstand the force of having an Azusa moment.

The reshoot is:

I've also think I've figured out a way to name a group without overwriting the preset. Maybe. I'll do some experimentation.

Some experimentation, and it seems that my theory works. I guess I can now open up a new service. (Namely, I can alter the group and as long as it doesn't save, it won't do anything funny.

Please note - All requests I've managed to find (Barring the most recent request by Logan, a reshoot for Logan and KarateKat's special request) have been posted.

If you've been missed... You can probably know what I'm going to say next, but I'm going to say it anyway. Pick the one that you can handle. (hopefully the truth.)

1. Request not specific enough.
I'm not going to guess, I have enough problems with plain old screwups at my end.

Just because I have worked at postal offices, mailrooms and in adminstration on a corporate level does not automatically grant me the powers of precognisence. Even if it did, I'm not going to expend that sort of energy on your request. I'd rather try to figure out the winning lotto numbers instead.

YOU know what you want, and the compendium is there to ensure that you GET what you want. Don't tell me now that after you know what everything looks like that you don't know what you actually want. It's not going to fly with me, and I will (Unless I'm incredibly bored) ignore the request, codified or not.

And as I said previously, you are not the only one I'm dealing with. Yes, it might be minor for you as a single request, but when you get 20 of them, it works out to be a major headache.

2. Not Coded.
This is always going to be a time thing. On a slow day I might be able to sit down for a while and puzzle out some of the vagularities (Or get bored enough to throw darts at the board. Take a pick) of some requests.

I haven't had a particularly slow day in a while, and I DO have a million other things I should be doing. Like living life, I suppose. I probably spend too much time running requests here as it is, and I should try to cut back.

Not coding your requests makes me get less life. And usually ties in with reason 1, which makes me less human and more likely to shoot at you.

3. Must have missed it.
A forum isn't the best of ways to track, but it's all we got, so consequently we do what we can manage. If you don't fall under catergory 1 or 2, most likely you're here. Please repost and we'll see what we can do for you. I apologise for this one, but going through 4+ pages back and still tracking done/not done ones is tricky. I'll be happy to field all requests.

(This is despite the fact that the request list is skewered at the moment. I may be tempted to offer incentives to request the lesser requested ones just to balance it out.)

Thank you for your attention.

For most part, mist isn't something you can specify - You either get it because the song dictates it, or you simply don't. Currently only 2 songs force the mist version (Me Ga Au Toki and My Song) and it's there for reference.

Apart from that though, it can be picked up and put into the overnight run, although the midnight express seems to have hit a snag.

Well this might help the averages a bit. It'll get there at some point.

After that update was done, the total is now 26x Kyun! Vampire Girl. If we were running the im@s Tokyo pop top 100, Kyun would be top of the charts right about now.
