He was the one who got me started on hacking Chrono Trigger.

I hate to say it, but I'm surprised it took this long for there to have been a leak...

I hate to see that the CE Team's trust was betrayed, though.  That's always tough.

The way I see this situation is that no matter how low the chance of a lawsuit is (and I honestly believe that even if the 98% beta leaked, it'd be like 1 in 10,000), it's nobody's risk to take but the people's whose names are on that C+D. No one else has the right to take the risk for them. We can only hope that one day the creators see fit to assume the risk and find a way for everyone to experience the full Crimson Echoes by playing it themselves.

Well said, on all counts.

mmkay, thanks.  I was thinking he delayed himself to give this anouncement some air time before being covered by a measly video update.  Like I said, updates like these are kind of mandatory.  But whatev's, I'm getting my CE fix, so I'm happy.

I'm repeating myself, but I'm sad about this.  :( :(
It might just be my sentiments...

ok everyone... Throughout this entire fiasco I've managed to keep my calm.  I kept my calm when I got a C&D, I kept my calm when I SE totally snubbed me, I kept my calm against an entire forum of people talking about how I faked the whole thing for some sort of fucking internet popularity contest.  I rarely rant on the internet because honestly I dont really care about people on the internet (no offense).  My "real" life is actually pretty awesome ( very few people here know about my real life but they can atest to it). But after reading this and reading the actual logs of what happened (I dont think they are public) this  has hit a chord with me. People showing sympathy to these people are just plain wrong.  I'm going to go on what may be my one and only rant ever on the internet:

These people willingly (and trust me it's willingly) went out of their way to potentially ruin 2 peoples lives over a video game.  Trust me everyone in here loves chrono trigger.....and I can pretty confidently say I  may love it more than anyone here (cept maybe Z).  If you want proof then go check out a few youtube videos that I've uploaded cause guess what I made an entire fucking new game over the course of 5 years, can anyone else say that?  But even worse than that these people felt like they had the right to take all the hard work that I did and hand it out for me?  And not even that, they are fucking dumb enough to not even get the latest version and still rename it....and I quote Chrono Trigger - Crimson Echoes - Most Up To Date (2009).zip.  

(10:06 AM) TeaFlower:   How will they find us? Sure, they can track our IPs, but... if we do it through something like a proxy... we should be cool. Can't track a proxy, if they don't know about it they can't find us.
(10:06 AM)   Transfer of "Chrono Trigger - Crimson Echoes - Most Up To Date (2009).zip" is complete.

Awesome now everyone got to see a project that I worked on for years in a horrible incomplete form. And as an added bonus SE can potentially follow up on their legal thread to sue me if it gets distributed.  Oh yea....I forgot to mention they uploaded the entire damn ROM which is one of our few legal arguments against square enix. Oh wait......the idiocy goes even further.  They willingly did that with not one, but 2 people on the compendium who have what.....I'm pretty sure it's less than 10 posts...I've never heard of them has anyone else?  

[deleted another rant that might not be taken so well by other people]

I'm so pissed right now....I may delete this post later so everyone enjoy seeing me go off the handle while they still can.

fucking idiots.......]

I say this is probably one of the greatest tragedy's of all time.

Worse than the Holocaust? I guess it was pretty bad...

I changed my mind.Yeah, I agreed.

Wow, A12, did not actually see that coming, I guess this is not bad, but WORST event from Compendium.

EDIT::
Thanks for the video, but isn't it appropriate to rename the topic or create new thread or edit older thread?

Ranting on the internet is a good way to vent steam.  It stops you from possibly getting pissed at someone you know in real life.  I don't really think there's a need to ever delete anything  but.. meh.  Take all the time you want on those CE videos.  After this I don't mind a slightly later update time. (Not to say you are uploading these purely for my benefit :P)

If Square wanted to sue you over this alpha leak they'd have done it already. Be mad over the fact that the alpha that got released is a horrible misrepresentation of the work you put into this project. Be mad that people betrayed you and went behind your back to release the game without permission. But you are absolutely positively not going to get sued as a result of this leak. Square has nothing to gain by suing over the alpha, because if they sued, first off, the beta would probably be leaked by someone (in for a penny, in for a pound, mirite?). They wouldn't get any money off of you because they wouldn't win (and even if they did by some travesty of justice win, you can't very well get blood from a turnip). Any "message" they'd hope to send by making an example out of you be destroyed if they lost (because precedence would be against them).

I'm not saying you should defy them, because it's not my decision to make. It's yours, and even though I don't believe the leakers put you or this site in any danger, they still went behind your back, which was wrong.
