This mostly concerns @TheStealtaker2 , but It wouldn't hurt for others to know. So, a certain someone just today requested individual track uploads from the albums of all of these playlists: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA... youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-... youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-... youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-... youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH... youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE... youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB...
This is an undeniable proof that I can't keep up with all the requests I'm constantly getting. Even if I put maximal effort, using all my free time to slave away in order to fulfill all the requests, I doubt it would be enough. So my plan then is to return to your request of uploading the individual submissions from Bloodwrath538's NATMOS:R outtake compilations and pick at it until its all said and done, since if even trying to keep up with the mountain of requests I am expected to honor is a herculean task I don't stood chance of accomplishing, then I should just settle down for requests I left behind in a futile attempt to keep up, like yours.

So, some of you might be a tad bit mad at me for this, but because I fucked up my video batch because I put resolution and aspect ratio to 1:1, some of the videos would be shorts. Because someone complained about the tracks being uploaded as shorts in the past, I've decided to remove all of the videos whether they were converted into shorts format by YouTube or not to make things easier for myself. However, I didn't know that there is like 100 videos per day upload limit and that the YouTube will count those uploads even if I remove them before checking necessary details to set video visibility (if you know what I'm talking about). Because of this, I will not be able to publish all the NATMOSR Outtakes - Year 2, Log 3 individual tracks all at once and won't be able to upload any other tracks either.
Some of you might ask why do I upload videos all at once in batches instead as track by track even though the majority of the voters (at the time of writing this) in the poll of the previous post below chose. That is because I'm waiting for the number of votes to hit 100 to put these changes into effect.
IDK how much tracks I will upload any given day, but all I know is that I won't be able to do anything else tomorrow due to the limit.

So, for a few months I was tinkering with a couple ways of uploading the individual tracks as requested, as some of you might have noticed. So I've decided to ask you for your opinion regarding this. Having all the cons and pros of any given style in mind, which of these styles would you prefer for fulfilling suggestions that I am yet to commit to:
1: Track by track. Basically, doing all the steps for separating and uploading one track at a time, repeating this until entire request is completed. While this might be the most transparent way of uploading tracks, I've also noticed that I am more prone to doing mistakes such as not separating tracks properly this way. However, this method is the most flexible, since during a day which is particularly busy, instead of not uploading anything, I can for example upload 2 tracks instead of 8. One recent example (if any one of you paid attention) is the upload of "Everywhere at the end of Mr incredible" and "Everywhere At The End Of The Universe In Peru" part 5 tracks.
2: Segment by segment. After downloading officially uploaded segment of the requested album, I first do all steps of separating all the tracks in the segment all at once and then uploading and publishing all the tracks of the segment on YouTube all at once. One recent example of such is EATEOT But for Mexicans/Latinos Stage 1 track uploads which I did yesterday. I will plan to upload all the tracks of this project using this method. A pro of this method is that due to the nature of this procedure, I am more likely to catch mistakes I did during the process, though, there might be a larger wait time between upload batches, but since project segments are mostly of manageable sizes, in vast majority of days, I should be able to upload tracks from at least project segment, which gives it a balance in flexibility and transparency and a thoroughness of the process.
3: Project by project/request by request. I will first do all the work necessary to separate all the tracks from any given project (all the project uploads that currently exist) and then upload all the tracks separated into YouTube, every track of the project all at once. This approach ensures maximal thoroughness of the process, possibly somewhat better than segment by segment approach, being even more error proof. However, due to nature of this process, there might be more frequent days with the absence of uploads, especially when dealing with larger and more demanding to complete requests. But, once the tracks are uploaded, there is a guarantee that the request (if the project is already complete), is definitely complete. However, issues with this method could arise with requested projects that aren't yet completed, as I could upload the tracks of all already finished segments all at once, but in the future another segment could release. This makes it that I will either have to switch to segment by segment method for the specific request or I will have to wait for project to be completed, which could take way too long for whoever requested the individual track uploads. The recent example of this is upload of tracks from Everywhere in the Beginning, Again: Reincarnation by The Transitional guide.
4: Do something else. Choose this if you want an alternative option I didn't mention. In that case, specify it in the comment section of this post.
So, which method of uploading individual tracks would you prefer?

Alright, as many of you have demanded, I've uploaded The Grand Decline (And The Sorrows Within) visit 8 to YouTube. However due to lack of thinking on my part I set audio codec for my video exports I've uploaded just now as libopus, with Quality-based VBR quality control and quality set to 100%, this lead to audio having much smaller bitrate than it would have if it were exported with flac audio. Due to this I ask you if you are willing to compare the audio quality of my uploads with the tracks on the official bandcamp page and those who have downloaded the files, with the downloads to see it there is any noticeable quality loss on my uploads.
Other thing, regarding ArtOfLemons uploads, I've uploaded virtually their every YouTube upload of music, but have abstained from uploading their other videos as I'm not sure how worthy they are of preserving and whether ArtOfLemons would have wanted those videos to stay in the first place. I would really appreciate feedback on this matter as well.

As many of you know, ArtOfLemons was a notable person in The Caretaker fandom who passed away around a year ago at this point. However, something I had in mind for a while is to help honor and preserve his legacy he had left in this community by reuploading his albums and the tracks from them, seeing as gmail accounts (which are used to create a YouTube channel) are automatically removed after 2 years of inactivity and since half that time has already passed, time to do so is running out as all YouTube exclusive uploads on ArtOfLemon's channel are at risk at becoming lost media.
However, I sense that this might might be a controversial move, knowing the nature of this unfortunate situation. I just want to ask whoever is reading this; should I proceed, seeing as this might potentially be morally problematic?

Since it is most likely that it will take time for The Cultivator and Marppram to respond to my inquiries/demands, I will most likely start uploading individual tracks from Mr. Estranger next, unless other aforementioned creators manage to reply and we manage to reach conclusion before I manage to start uploading the individual tracks from Mr. Estranger's projects.
Note to not put pressure of any kind on Marppram and especially The Cultivator to make them discuss the demands, it is not a huge priority and I can live some time without response, in fact, such would allow me to fully focus on covering the works of Mr. Estranger.

So yesterday when I was in the premiere of 'We'll All Be Pushing the Payload', an album by the nostalgists, I remember someone saying something along the lines that it would be nice if someone would compose another album from submissions by The Nostalgists, 'A Journey Astride the Hyperspace'.
Well, I'm very interested in partaking this, if I can or if it wasn't done already.

Video uploads will either be delayed or absent today because I will be watching the Minecraft Movie.

For like 6 people who saw my last 3 uploads and wondering where the hell they went. Apparently they already exist for a year or so: www.youtube.com/playlist?list...
At least I don't have to do audacity separation bullshit for like 50% of the tracks though.

For now I upload music I either like or which has been suggested for it to be uploaded, mostly uploading The Caretaker fandom music.
