how is that helpful?

i could lead myself off into so many different directions with that clue

so, the clue is:

your avatars should all get it

so, all of our avatars should get it

so, all our avatars should get (not have) it (singular, not plural)

i've gone totally insane[/b]

Nope. That would be too obvious.

Okay, not all the avatars. Look at most of the avatars... what are they pictures of?

Ha! I knew I heard this tune before. It is from Earth Worm Jim.

Ack! You're right! That is from EWJ! I knew I recognised it.
Worm Mad - is he a mad worm or a person mad about worms? I'll give you a clue - it's not the first one.

Because I can't think of any other game tune right now, and because I can't find it in MIDI, it is in mp3. 8 bit sound compresses great, though, so I managed to put a 40sec audio clip into just 120KB, which should be less than half a minute download even for the 56Kers. Considering the fact that it is smaller than the file that SupSuper posted in .mod format, I don't think anyone will mind.

Correction: It is a zip file. You'll have to extract it. Forum doesn't take mp3s. Not even very, very small ones. :(

If you heard this tune before, you'll probably know what game it is from right away. Also, you might have heard a nicer, cleaner, arcade version of this tune, which I don't have a copy of.

No idea what it is. It's certainly not Wing Commander though.

I suppose, I can see where you got the idea that it might be from Wing Comander, but it has nothing to do with it. Nor does it have anything to do with Castelvania.
