EDIT - Read the rest of post to make sense of this tidbit here.
i'm going to make things interesting. "Christina", if you can provide me with the Cubase file for those songs you claim are yours, I will personally apologize and call myself a douche, and then delete my account. No joke. Until then, may you get raped by a hundred angry squirrels
So today was an interesting day. Lets begin at the very beginning.
Before I do that, link to DarkSide555, because he played the ground breaker in this one. if it weren't for his first step of proof, this wouldn't have resolved.
A couple weeks ago, a character who went by the name DreamStrider sent me a pm asking me to add her to my MSN list because she wanted to talk to me. Okay fair enough.
My first reaction was go to her page, which is located above. And that story she wrote, is all pretty sweet... don't you guys agree... pretty damn sweet. Anybody else think it's a little too sweet? Yes indeed, I subtly left my remark on how it should be a book *or maybe it already is*, who knows.
===EDIT===
she has removed her post. How sad eh?
Whatever.
After a couple days, she finally came online at the same time as me, and she said hi.
The conversation log is ridiculously long so i'm going to focus on key parts, which are... suspicious.
Her: Would you be interested in performing for a game?
Okay, i'm usually really busy to commit full time, but I do freelance from time to time, I asked for the game website
Site A very intricate lie thus far, it seemed she kept all his/her bases covered. It was a shame that no staff page was found, or findable at least by me. I'm not Hungarian literate.
Apparently our little songwriter also models. Very well I might add. Click on Galaria and go to the 3D art section. That is apparently her. Oh, and of course, she didn't tell me that was her, until I said the 3D artist was talented :D! Easily enough to slip your mind. I mean if you spend dozens of hours producing this, mentioning it is not worth your time. Not at all. Nope.
Nocka munkái, tervei - means Nocka, art and plans. Thank you Dragon198901 for pointing that out!
it becomes important later.
Okay, she is the story writer, designer, 3d modeller, and musician! Wow, if this chick lived across the street i'd be banging on her door and ask her to marry me. Multi talented, supremely gifted and with the ability of proper time management?! absurd! Where was the shopping time?!
Anyways, we started talking about music, as she wanted me to help her produce songs for this game. In the flavor of A Warm Wind in Avalon, and Djose Forest. It would of course, all have to go through her hands first, as the team did not speak English. Of course, why the hell not right?! I'd love to give you those songs right away to use for a game that has no staff page, or you mentioned in it!
In any case, she then started to send me her "old" work. Without breaking any copywrite infrigements *LIKE YOU DID!*, it was this song.
I listened to it, and immediately I knew it was live, but suspected it to be stolen. I can't of course say that right away. I needed proof, but had no idea how to go about finding it.
So I went to DarkSide555 and said "Do you know Enya/Shakira at all?" which he promptly replied to me by saying
"WUT CRECK DO J00 SMOKE ALL DAY >:(!?" because our good friend DarkSide555 is a bloody metal man, who busts out the jam like expired strawberries. Anyways, I told him, I suspected this song to be stolen. This 17 year old girl who claims to have made it. I sent it to him, while asking her a few more questions.
Of course i'd like to say right now, thank you again DarkSide555 for immediately finding the proof to my suspicions.
I asked her if she made these live? Her first mistake was to say "nope, they were all fake!" Of course my sneaking suspicion suddenly became raging fury. Fake are they?
"And do you use a program like Cubase?"
"Why yes infact that is mostly what I use! :D"
Wow, how awesome, she uses exactly the program I happened to name.
She sent me a second song *actually that youtube video is the second song she sent me, sorry for the mislead, too lazy to change it now*.
So again this was all fake? I inquired. And she said yes. Okay now I knew it was bullshit.
"I'm quite impressed with that cello you had going at 0:59!"
"Oh that is live, I play 4 instruments!"
REALLY?! How awesome, she plays violin, cello, and the harp. So I told her I was going to pick up the Oboe, which is true.
Did j00 guys knew her brother also pleys the Oboe!?!?!?!?
Keep this in mind, it becomes important later.
At this point, DarkSide555 found the evidence!
"Check out this youtube video :D!"
Sweet beans!
This is where it gets fun guys, pay close attention. It was confirmed that it was stolen, it was now time to set up the traps. This song was released last year *lyrics here!*. So I decided to ask her some trap questions. The important thing about these questions was to side step them into view without arousing any suspicion. You must after all take into consideration the person already knows they're lying, and will of course be extra sensitive to vibes which might suggest as such.
Trap 1:
"How long did it take you to make these songs?"
Why this was significant: If she answers at all, in any way or form, it adds proof to it all. Unless s(he) said right then, it wasn't hers.
Her/his answer:
the actual composing was around 2 weeks for both like 1 week for one the playing it was like 2-3 hours writing of the lyrics was another week and the completion was another day that's like a month in total for the 2 songs.
Trap 1 successfully set
Trap 2: Do you plan on publishing these?
Why this was significant: She had said in the convo earlier that she was working on a new album, and that these tracks were old. So she never said anything about them being published. If she says no, there was no need for more traps, if she said yes, the fun would go on.
Her answer: I already have O_o. 2 months ago.
Trap 2 failed, but opened the door to Trap 3
Trap 3: Is your album online?
Significance: Any artist worth their salt would answer "FUG YES!" This trap was a bombshell, if she said yes, she'd have to show me where it was, effectively proving that she had none. If she said she didn't, then how come DarkSide555 just found the same song online?
Loaded questions are fun.
Her Answer: Nope, my album was released 2 months ago, they will be available this december!
REAAAAAAAALLLLY?!
Okay, I had my fun, it was time to hammer this down.
I said, and I quote
My dear I have to ask you then, if you released the album two months ago, what is this exactly?
http://order.jamba.hu/jow/slp_order.do ?contentType=9&doc=16037525&parentId=2 917236&jhs=279
released 7 months ago?
It is important the reader realize there was 5 minutes of silence. Time was necessary to backtrack through the lies, desperate measures had to be taken.
Her answer finally:
And I will asnwer you. The songs you have are part of my promotional demo, which are old there is a 3rd song also, you don't belive me either :(, Peti Puskás is my brother
remember her full name back up? Anybody else realize that Peti Puskás has NO RELEVANCE whatsoever?!
Of course, the frowny at the end would break my heart and I would immediately drop my accusations.
So I asked her. Why she would send me a song sung by her "brother", for her promo, which he released on HIS album last year. Managers arn't retarded, nobody is going to publish the same song twice. Of course, she then blocked me.
Too bad, I was about to point out all his/her flaws too. In case you're reading now "Christina" these were your mistakes, please for future lying reference keep them handy.
1. Learn your friggen software. Don't call clearly live performances fake.
2. Did you really think anybody was going to believe you were 17, a master modeller, 4 language speaking, 4 instrument playing, goes to choir, and has time to make albums on top of that?!
3. I'll give you props at the join the game point, that one blew by me.
4. Don't suddenly agree with what people say and then change your story accordingly. I wonder if I said "do you use Fruity Studio's?" would you have gone "yeah :D!"
5. Your mom!
6. Nobody releases the same song twice, you're an idiot. Promotional or no
7. Peti Puskás does not play Oboe!!!
8. Do your research. If you had said you had released the album years ago, you MIGHT have been able to coin that Peti Puskás did a cover of you. I would have had no proof, I don't speak Hungarian, use your god damn brain. Also this would only work if you weren't 17!
In conclusion, go to hell.
Sincerely,
MaestroRage.
PS:
aaaaaaa HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA
Rig
lmfao!
It raises the question, though - what were they actually gonna use your stuff for? Nice catch, guys. I hate liars.
MaestroRage
Who knows... maybe (s)he would post them up somewhere before me so that (s)he could claim it was their work and steal it? I don't really know, or care, to be honest after she started sending me these songs I was pretty sure I wanted nothing to do with him/her.
