I don't know how on earth that's possible, unless they've stockpiled their refuels and been on it non-stop waiting for their fuel to refill.

"dubstep" on Youtube

This is the problem.

That is where almost all of it is found. At least in the US. The only dubstep that you can get physical copies of here is Skrillex to my knowledge.
Some producers actually print disks and sell them. I have disks for South Central, but have never seen it in HMV, or any other shop that sells CDs. Of course, they aren't well-known, which may contribute to this, but there are more popular artists who have produced dubstep that are more popular that have released widely available albums. Most of the stuff on YouTube is produced by some experimentalists on their laptops trying to be popular by targeting a distinct area of musical interest.

When they perform electronica live, they're not making it there and then, they do the same as everybody else and repeat from practice. It takes an incredible amount of skill to produce the multiple layers with correct timing when you don't even have a scale, you only have knobs and buttons in random places that have to be twisted or moved the right amount, to replicate a track that, apparently, has no rhythm or reason to it.

All of your arguments are centered around that it's "hard" to make.  Just because something's hard to make doesn't mean it's good
It wasn't about it being 'hard to make', it's that they are countering the arguments that accuse dubstep of being easy to make with no skill involved at all.

And in terms of your 'no semblance of construction' argument, it appears that way with some songs, but some that I listen to keep a constant tempo, and vary the bass enough to make it interesting and not repetitive. That's why I like South Central, who do a DJ set that''s about an hour long, and release an EP containing some of the beats but produced as an entire song. They test it out and see what they like, then do it. That's how music should be made, instead of just producing this pop stuff that's just accepted and shoved into the charts because it's new.

As a rather avid listener of dubstep and other electronica (as some of you may well know), I agree with the points TX have mentioned. Most of the current arguments against this style of music (that aren't insults) are simply the you don't like the music. That's fine by me. I know that a lot of people would despair if they went through my music, but that's just what I like. Some music, for example death metal, I detest and am uncomfortable listening to...but I tollerate its existance and the fact that people listen to it. Anyway, the general point here is as TX said: preference. Deal with it, and stick to your own preferences if you don't like dubstep.

Do vocals count? If yes then that's my pick.
Vocals =/= Instrument

Game controllers =/= instruments.
Skin flute =/= instrument

Went back onto the Xbox Minecraft today...I'm absolutely amazed how far forward it's gone since I was last on. (That was about 2 months ago, when they'd only just got to pistons...) Now, it's got enchanting, potions and temples.

Yes it does. You get challenged to races all the time during the challenge. If you want to win them, you need power.

Duh.

TBH, just pick the right answers, and you can bring the fastest car you have. After all, the terrain doesn't impact the race outcome enough as long as you have a REALLY fast car.

Seeing as IB3 is now in Beta form, and I'm considering remaking the IRW series in IB2, I thought I'd restart discussions on this game. To start off, here's a crossbow with multiple arrow types in IB3:

Since I lost all my Car Town skins... Can someone pack his own skins and share them for me? If anyone has... Would be appreciated.
Anyone? JD? IRW? Kurt?

Have you tried Car Town's website?  They have a whole library of skins there.
There is lot's of Skin sites and groups. I just CBA to download them all.
And downloading them off of someone else is less effort?
If all the skins are packed in one folder, yes.
And yet you want to gather them from multiple people.

Seriously, just cut the crap and download skins you like.

Nobody cares if you use a piece of sh**.

But just cuz you use it doesn't mean it isn't.  New Firefox does kinna sucks though, but it does support plugins like Adblock and Scriptblock.
1st off, I only use Chrome when I need to open lots of tabs at once (which is almost never), and so apart from that there's never any need for me to use a different browser.
2nd, I never said that my using of IE means that it doesn't suck (as you imply). I mean, it seems to have non-responsive outbursts, but that is most probably (as in almost certainly) because my netbook is not powerful enough for squat. Nothing responds when using my computer.

And, as I said, there aren't any speed advantages either, so there is absolutely no reason for me to use another browser.

Anyways, I hardly play, never bother with skins, and haven't even read this thread for a week.

...it doesn't detect IE properly.
That would be because IE is a smouldering heap of sh**
Yeah, switch to Chrome or Firefox.
if you still think IE's crap, you're living in the times of IE 5.

Once again, stop living in the past, dude. Fixating on the few problems of something and not even tollerating it is beyond arrogant. I mean...I hate Apple products, but at least I tollerate the fact that people use them, and simply avoid using them myself.

It's still taking its sweet time selecting a server. Has been for 2 minutes now.

As if the browser really makes ANY humanly noticable difference. And anyways, if you still think IE's crap, you're living in the times of IE 5.

Plus, with the speed of my internet broadband, if IE 9's really as slow and rubbish as everybody makes out, it wouldn't impact me.
