Hard to say, he (she?) doesn't create releases, just does some improving of what's available. Does he do good work? Hell yes, some of his stuff I've seen was improved over the originals. If it was up to me, I'd list him, only because his (her?) work is pretty good and I'm too lazy (or don't have enough time) to do it myself.

what good is a poll with shitty options.. 'fuck him' wasnt exactly the feelings i had.. but 'no' would have done. i personally dont see the need for his stuff to be on this site but im an old nazi about these things.. change is unwelcome. if his stuff and the many others that will follow are added here i def think they should have their own section. but i though binnews and places like that were more appropriate for these releases. the thread from that release was an adywan lovefest.. the mans head must be huge.

but the truth is.... this is an issue surrounding the TC/TS/CAM scene (aka the-lamer-orgy) . and well scene-wise.. that subsection has gone to complete shit. i wont touch a CAM/TS with my 10 ft wang.. so i could care less what happens in that realm. as far as im concerned cams/ts's are shit.. and adywans are polished turds.
it WOULD be nice however if 'scene' groups stopp'd 1-click ripping silvers and actually put a lil time into their encodes and adjustments as adywan clearly does. it is NOT a hard thing to do or learn about it. it may take time away from your precious creditwhoring but GOD FORBID.

I have this wonderful thing called patience and a 'to watch list'.. with these amazing abilities.. i am able to find shit tons of things to watch as i wait for 'new' movies to go retail.

I don't care.

It's all out there, if nothing but TS/CAM's out there, I will only watch if I REALLY want to watch the film. Otherwise, I just wait for a screener or dvdrip.

i'm gonna go with what VBitter said. i personally don't agree that adywan should be listed in with scene releases. his releases are actually LOWER quality in a technical sense since they're all reencodes. if adywan wants scene respect he should be an encoder/syncer for a group imo. or get the silver himself and do a proper encode. reencodes/transcodes are the bane of my existance as someone who appreciates quality audio/video. i like what adywan does, but no props for increased pixelation (its there, its a reencode) and using other people's audio.

His work is not better then scene groups. ANY VCD scene group can do what he does. They dont because its NOT proper. There are millions of people that can mux / splice and sync video, but in the scene you do it with your own SOURCE. So a SCENE site should not INDEX something that is for retards who have to get their shit off usenet, and dont know how to sync / splice / merge video.

He fixes up existing releases, so no, not really.

Adywan doesnt do it to be controversial...he doesnt do it for the world to praise him. He does it because he can.
If you want a better release than some spastic stole and called it a scene release... then download it!
OTHERWISE FUCK UP

personally, i dont care about scene rules or politics or silvers or who's fucking whose mother, i come here for the shrimp... wait no, thats red lobster, i come here for the quality review.

if his releases have higher visual or audial quality, and i can see that compared to a "real sc3n3 group" it looks/sounds/is synched better, im going to be happier for the info and download his release. i don't give props to anyone anyway, so it doesnt matter what the group name is on a release to me, who stole it, who remixed it, as long as i get the best version i can in the time alotted.

so yes, put it in a different grouping if you have to, label it with asterisks, color it pink, but if its a release that shows higher quality, i'd like to know about it.

Sure, and then lets start posting TMD / SMR re-encodes too... great idea!

Whats wrong with TMD ??


They are fucking l33t

Whilst he's damn good at what he does, he probably shouldn't be on the VCDQ release list. Newzbin and other such sites provide good enough insight as to the quality of his work in their comments section. You need some element of control over releases otherwise it'll get out of hand with any old twink re-encoding some pile of cack just to get his name mentioned.

The best way to do it, IMO, would be for a major group to get hold of him or for him to get his own sources.... even if it means he/they only release internals - at least he'd get credit that way.

Quantity and speed over quality just won't get you any respect these days (at least not from me). Yay for you... you released a hunk of shit on the first day of a film's release that nobody can watch (which then means the group that took 12 hours to encode it properly can't "officially" release it). It's bullshit.

You should be polling the release groups he rips off without consent. He has a "reputation" on Usenet and you know what youre in for when you download it (a touched up release), so check out here for the quality on the original source, and if it has flaws grab Addy's "improved" version if it floats your boat and you can find it. So ya, fuck listing him here. 10 more Addys will pop up tomorrow if you start listing it here. Then it will be a proper of a proper re-encode of an Addywan that someone fixes the AR by 7%, oi, fuck that.

Hey I fixed the reversed left/right audio channels on Maven's Cars release, and uploaded it to Kazaa.

Can I be listed too?

Give me a couple of days off the beer and dope and I could do what adywan does.
Not sure about the subs though. Does he make them himself or download them?

No.

maybe

I think he should be listed in a special non-scene area. He does good work, but he doesnt do anything except post them to usenet.

yes please list him/her. if for no other reason to annoy *the scene*(yes i'm too pathetic to be part of scene.happy?)

if the scene people can do what ady does well,why do they so often don't ????????


sure they can and that's when 'the fixed' version comes out. and hey that often has a new problem(s) or the same problem as the release it was supposed to fix...hey that never happens right ???



adyway has been doing this stuff for years(as we all know) so no if whomever from nowhere just fixed mavens 'cars' release with a reverse of channel they shouldn't be listed.

but hey groups have 'propered' on less pressing concerns....

i'm *glad* adywan is *not* part of a group !!! if he/she was part of group wouldn't ady only be allowed to work on whatever the group released ?? and if part of a group would he/she have to rush things and not do as good a job to win the race????????????


so yeah list ady/ has been at for years/longer than some of the groups listed(yes i'm waiting for the snitty/smackdown correction if i got that wrong.thanks)

and i don't think ady's goal was to get listed on index sites. but the interest in ady's 'releases' and the quality are desereving of listings.


and it not like there isn't going to be a steady stream of things needing the ady touch....


no i'm not scene and no i can't do the things ady does.

WOW... is it possible to agree with everyone in this thread?

Agreed... If adywan gets listed some other fucktard will do the same thing

the only adywan Ive seen on torrents is the one listed here... maybe if listed it will spread more...

Adywan isnt scene... so maybe shouldnt be listed (though should be recruited)

annoying the scene with usenet rls's does sound nice, just to improve their sync quality

I could say more, but I am in favor of a alternate category for non-scene rls's with strict control, things like leaked WPs that are rlsd through p2p, and maybe adywan... just because I would want his FIXED rls's over the many fucked rls's Ive gotten.

Overall though, I dont really care, I get what I can grab if I want it, and wont wait if I want to watch it.

I am ADYWAN!!!

VCDQ is for scene releases. While I respect someone's work.. it just doesn't fit into what is listed on the site. I've never seen ady's work, my opinion is non-biased based on the purpose of this site and the information provided about his releases (re-encodes).

Creating a non-scene section to the site isn't very realistic or even beneficial. There are so many "non-scene" releases all over p2p trying to keep up with them would be more work than its worth, no to mention server resources, etc.

And for those who hate the scene (in general, i know most old-timers dislike what has become)... why are you on a site about SCENE releases?

were you in a coma?
