Zelyhon So, AG, anyone here aside from me go over and check out the monthly Top Ten lists that they and Screwattack put out? I started doing this a few months ago and they've kept me entertained. The last two have been for the top 20 genesis games (20-11 and 10-1 respectively). At the end of the last one, they mentioned what the next month's list is going to be, the Top Ten video game songs, limit one per franchise. They also invited nominations (though, hopefully this isn't just by fan vote...) on their site, and I've been lurking there since then, following the thread and picking out good songs for future listening/putting on iPod. I was curious, though, as to what you all here who play games might put on the list. It's basically open to everything, but they're only going to put one game per franchise on their final list. So, what are all of your favorite songs from video games? I can't get to my original posting on their site (I guess if it is broke, it isn't necessarily Gaia...), but my list was: Tetris A: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whBg7IF5JUg&feature=relatedAria di Mezzo Carattere (FF VI Opera theme): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knI4nYlLt0YStill Alive: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RthZgszykLsKatamari on the Rocks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwyfeksaeG8Frog's theme: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caRKvQAyU7MGreen Hill Zone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHL4vs566YgAnd a few others I can't think of off the top of my head.

Zelyhon So, are you in favor of the strike or no? I'd think a strike might be interesting, but could be beyond inconvenient if it doesn't wrap up in a reasonable amount of time. I am in favor of the strike, for a couple of different reasons. More money would be nice, especially since the head of the agency got a 19% raise a few years ago, and we got nothing. Not to mention, human service program are different from factories. You absolutely cannot just hire some person off the street and expect them to do the same job that we do, even if they have experience. When I was hired, I already had several years experience in residential programs, and I STILL needed to be trained for a few weeks. Also, part of the licensing agreement is the policy of maintaining 1:6 staff/client ratio at all times (except on overnights, when it effectively goes to 1:8 ). There's no way they can maintain ratio for more than a few days even with the part timers and relief staff, because most of them have full time jobs in addition to the per diem shifts they work for the YWCA. If a strike does happen, I doubt it'll last long, because of these issues. But right now the union wants us to vote, so they can use it to basically say to the YWCA "Look, your employees are ready to walk out if they don't get raises" to hopefully get management to agree to raises. Personally, I don't think we're asking for a huge amount of extra money. The cost of everything has gone up, why can't our salaries at least reflect that? But we'll see. I'm going to ask some questions when I go to the union office today.
