sharing this here because (i think) a lot of you will appreciate it. it’s got all our favorite things: Arctic voyages, doomed sailors, the hubris of man, Iggy Pop.
A month of programs devoted to Emily St. John Mandel's "Station Eleven" kicks off this weekend
On Saturday, a version of the Traveling Symphony starring students from the Grossmont College Theatre Department will give a Shakespearean performance from the back of a truck parked in front of the Book Catapult bookstore in South Park. It is one of many local events happening throughout the month celebrating “Station Eleven” and the NEA Big Read, a National Endowment for the Arts program that encourages communities to read, share and get excited about a good book.
Synopsis:
New York, 1904. After two years as a coroner’s physician for the city of New York, Daniel O’Halleran is more frustrated than ever. What’s the point when the authorities consistently brush aside his findings for the sake of expediency? So when his fiancée leaves him standing at the altar on their wedding day, he takes it as a sign that it’s time to move on and eagerly accepts an offer…

Not sure if you made a post about this but, do you know where are some of the best places to find mugen characters right now? I've seen several different databases but I am unsure of what I'm doing.
Mugen Free For All has user-made collections of characters, some have dead links because they link to old sites or missing Mediafire files. But most of the links work and it's an easy to stumble over different versions of characters and so on.
People also post their releases on there if you want to get into the meat of newer of stuff.
Mugen Fighters Guild is primarily about on-going or newer projects, their archive hasn't been updated in long time so it has dead direct links. Their forum is where all the new releases happen.
You'll also find some smaller sites like Infinity Mugen Team or Brazilian Mugen Team, though the creators usually upload to other sites as well.
If you watch SpriteClub or SaltyBet, they should both have full lists of their rosters and stages so you can search by that and the author's names if you see someone interesting.
(Granted that doesn't always work, especially if the author is Japanese, you may have to run the author AND the characters' name through a translator to Japanese to find them raw)
Thanks for asking,
P.S.
AndersonKenya1 is a good site, it works like an archive where a few people are uploading characters from all over. You need an account to use it though, and I think the most bothersome aspect of the site is how easy it is to see some freaky NSFW stuff.
Sure they have dedicated section for all that, but it's openly shown on the main page of the site at times.
Granted nowadays, you'll see some freaky stuff just by typing MUGEN on Youtube.
BUT ASIDE FROM THAT, it's alright.
I just think there's WEIRD ISSUE of people really not using discretion when it comes to OBVIOUSLY FETISHISTIC CONTENT being shown publicly but that's me.
Now I didn't want to mention this in the past because I want to avoid drama-
MugenArchive is probably one of the bigger sites on-going right now? It does its job well, since people will upload stuff from other sites there for "archival purposes" like AndersonKenya.
However, users are given a Download Limit last time I checked and you can't download files 100MB if you're a "non-contributor". You can upload stuff to get points or whatever to level-up your account, but as stated, you can just contribute things from other sites.
So it's like they're incentivizing re-uploading other people's work even though usually people don't want to you do that without permission. If they were just sharing links to the works, it'd be one thing, but actively taking anything and everything for points is kind of wack.
Also non-contributer users can't use the site on Weekends.
MUGEN has always had issues with people stealing others' work and taking credit or changing things unnecessarily without permission.
I stumbled onto the old website of a rather prolific author, Rikard, whose original characters are still used to this day.
One of the last, possibly the final post, was an explanation that he was quitting because of people stealing his work.
I think MA's policy of rewarding people for others' work essentially, is further feeding that practice.
If you scroll the site, you'll see people probably under 18 even, uploading their edits of characters by other people with asinine changes. Stuff like messing with the palettes or making them more broken.
I can recall seeing something a few months ago where an incomplete character that was privately shared in a Discord server was uploaded without the author's permission.
I know about this because the character was still on the site despite everyone knowing this happened.
This isn't even going into the shady practices they've committed against the MUGEN Community as a whole.
So no one can stop you from using MA, just keep in mind there's some skeletons in the garden. Though I'd recommend using it at as a last resort, really.
I understand not everyone is like me and willing to spend time just digging for authors' original download links.
I added images to increase readability???
This is decently long so I don’t want it taking up too much space.
Summary: Nothing is going to change, I’m just going to be approaching things from a different angle. I’m adding a list of MUGEN games to my Pinned Post.
I’m going to admit that I’ve been handling this blog in an obtuse way,
you wouldn’t know it but I’ve been very picky about information I share.
I have a bad habit of only wanting to share an ENTIRE thing before I go into the parts of it, but this is Social Media, I should be giving out pieces all the time.
If you want a recipe to be famous, you have as many people trying it as possible.
I can’t share something I think is big once and expect EVERYONE to see it.
If no one sees it the first time I should still be showing off different parts of it at other times because that’s how you get the word out.
I know more about MUGEN and obscure fighting games than a large portion of this site, and I can control what I share with everyone but I shouldn’t be trying to control everyone’s ability to learn on their own.
Naturally, there’s certain things I just won’t share directly let alone talk about or show unprompted because I know things people are better off not knowing.
(I don’t want this blog to go in a certain direction or attract certain crowds)
People have been asking me about MUGEN Games and I’m sure even more people are curious. So far I’ve been trying to be informative about games as I share them but putting all the thought into what to say isn’t gonna help if I only do it ONCE.
So thanks to a certain Mugen Author, I now have a growing list of 70+ Games made in the Engine.
Thank you, Susie - your bright spirit impacted the world
