In dedication of XXXSEED Games and the WyrdWad KKK Witch era, we present Jeff "DeuceBag" Nussbaum in his own words:

Why, if I didn't know any better, I'd say Psycho Jeff is involving/attacking innocent families of neo-geo.com fans he wants to watch die AND help murder/kill [painfully]!! And I for one did *Nazi* see that coming! Remember how a defining part of the WyrdWad era (Tom-chan Lipschultz) was equating targets to Hitler/Nazis ? Isn't this rant by Jeff/Deuce a Nazi eugenicist speech ? The "superior" fat, bald, cocky cock-flasher says numerous people AND their offspring need to be exterminated/murdered for being inferior, who represent a "pollution" of the human gene pool... Sure sounds like a Nazi rant, am I wrong XSEED fans/shills ?? Looking at you, DigitalEmelas! I mean, if it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, ya know ?? But what do I know right ? Everybody's ignoring it and other XSEED embarrassments... This vile psycho SOB got a pass for just about anything awful and toxic that he ever said/did (meanwhile my alleged "sins" can NEVER be forgiven according to him/Tom)!)! Worse, NIS America keeps on letting him poison the Ys series with his mere disgusting presence and questionable WWWJDIC-assisted translations!

This type of homicidal outburst by the "severely misanthropic, extremely arrogant, self-involved asshole" (100% HIS words!) wasn't the first either: when one of his bosses fired him (shock!), he not only wanted him dead but implied his kids must be as horribly ugly as he is! He didn't think anyone would read his blog, but like omgfloofy says, "Know your translator..." I was also added to his kill-list when I trolled him on Kotaku's KKK Witches article (he wants me to die by an acid bath and/or brain disease)... Another funny anecdote: while there are ambulance-chasers, Bankruptcy Jeff falls under the rare ambulance-crasher category, haha! Imagine being condemned, defamed, lied about by a complete psychotic mess of a manchild after massively cheating you who turns out was deflecting from deep mental problems & his own PR liabilities! This unhinged hypocrite bigoted bastard showing up from neo-geo.com in my forums/projects to get up on his high horse to smear me as an "embarrassment" had A LOT of fucking nerve! BURN IN HELL!!

Jeff and Tom are so arrogant/confident (you've seen it!) about their self-serving criminal views on localization partnerships and commercial selling AFTER you've taken THOUSANDS of work hours from fan co-workers on a project created under FAN TERMS (BY FANS, FOR FANS, NOT COMPANIES!), but WHY didn't they disclose such "views" from the very FIRST project ? Why after 5 projects/5 years ?? Didn't your partners have a fucking right to know something THAT serious/important ?? I'll tell you why: Because they would've been BANNED on sight! NOBODY would accept such terms, not me, not GideonZhi, not anyone; everyone would tell you to go fuck yourself and find another chump to work for free for you, so by failing to disclose them they operated under deception, that's a scam! Begging for free work hours from likeminded Falcom fans so you can build up a finished localization portfolio of up to 5 games/scripts, then commercially selling them in secret collusion almost all at once IS A SCAM! THAT'S LITERALLY WHAT THEY DID! 2 cocky/cunty localization scammers in the industry and 1 shitty company that got away with it! I didn't even wanna work on Ys Origin, I was gonna delete my site, but Jeff came to me crying, telling me "Please don't take the Ys series away from me, it's the only thing I'm proud of in my life..." Of course, he was *proud* to take it from *me* helping WyrdWad continue his obsessed sabotage/proxy-harassment/incitement efforts over the years! The psycho is not gonna tell you about that now NOR his 40%/60% royalty split demands which he was adamant on if I proceeded with a payware idea (which he cancelled after the $550 payment and for me being too slow as 2 years elapsed! So, he could still play the hero in the end!), and people see how he talks about me nowadays... He then proceeded to guilt me by telling me about his suicide-attempt and being crippled from a knee injury, walking with a cane, etc... I never did anything but support and help him across 8 years, even finally paying him ($550), in return he cheated me from a 1 in a billion opportunity, and demonized my name ever since to score points/pander, justify these later double-cross actions!!!

Recently in 2024, he cheated me again out of crediting for 1 week of labor on Samurai Shodown RPG, the BmpTileFlip tool I built for him (per his request) to mod an English font in (of course the guy that cheated you on THOUSANDS of work hours on Ys projects would cheat you for 7 days on this one!)! I remember falsely being accused of talking about the leaker in a DM (I just wanted to show him worldwide Ys patch installation logging!), I was NOT, but he pretended I was, said I had an "obsession" with him which was also false (It was his disgusting, reductionist compare/contrast habit where he'd write that he has an obsession with the Ys series, while "that other guy" has an obsession with the Ys leaker, so HE is the real Ys fan!). He was simply preparing me for the double-cross with WyrdWad's team and was gonna cite the leaker as a main reason, so his talking-point/tactic was gonna be to trump-up charges, smear me as spending "2 WHOLE YEARS" on him/the leak issue, etc. (No evidence for his insane psycho lies, he uses the passage of time to smear you, implying you did X Y or Z for "all these years..." as if I live inside a computer! Even this post I wrote, he'll literally subtract 2024 from 2007 when the Felghana leak happened and claim ~17 YEARS SPENT ON THIS, imply 365 days/year, 100,000 hours was spent/planned on writing something negative about him/XSEED, the poor little underdog angels that they are!!!). If I said the leaker's name once again, he'd pretend I said it 1000 times AND spent 100,000 work hours on him (somehow!), always in the direction of hyperbolic/trumped-up charges to an absurd/comical/insane degree because he was looking to break that Ys Origin agreement behind my back despite having taken more work hours and CAT translation software from me! You get the idea!

I guess the master plan worked out nicely ? Real fucking "hero" of the people, huh ?? There were better/sane/rational ways to cancel our Ys Origin agreement but he chose the worst, most vile way when I didn't even wanna work on the project to begin with! It's just that WyrdWad's team presented him with a plan B and he could throw me under the bus, walk away both with the $550 and gain some sort of "hero" status... Truly a vile fucking bastard, dragged me into it only to ruthlessly kick me out of it once he was sure he didn't need me anymore to finish the rest of the project... Of course nobody imagined WyrdWad would get hired by 2 former Squaresoft bosses just as they had gained a Falcom partnership, so because of Jeff's troll games before that, WyrdWad just copied the same double-cross idea/action. Jeff becoming the "secret translator" for WyrdWad's fan team, that idea was ported by WyrdWad for XSEED on ALL our past projects! And I had to be continuously demonized/blacklisted/shunned as "the worst person in the world" to justify it yet even today I don't really know what I did to these psychos to justify something so cruel/unjust/unfair/despicable! I couldn't be forgiven 3 or even 5 years later, they just kept on doing it!!! Who's the real embarrassment now though ?? Look at his neo-geo.com posts! Ys fans know if *I* wrote something like that WyrdWad Tom would list it as the #1 reason why I was unprofessional/embarrassing/a PR nightmare and to be avoided!!! But you know how it goes, all the XSEED allies will never say a word about it! Very few will ever know just how vile Jeff truly is as a human being!

It's one thing to have your [criminal] views, it's another thing to impose them on someone else without consent! If he (or Tom on the Ys Felghana project!) told me from the very first Ys fan project that he becomes the "100% master CEO/owner" of the translated script for potential/possible future commercial sales and I'd just be the uncredited "slave," (that's NOT a "partnership" despite him ONLY calling it that when he announced he "dissolved" it JUST IN TIME for secret sales to XSEED Games!!! AMAZING COINCIDENCE!!) I'd tell him to find someone else you motherfucker! Period. Never mind the sabotage/threat this represents to all other fan partnerships: producers like GideonZhi have to watch their backs from translators plotting secret sales to companies and using XSEED as a precedent to cut out all their partners! What if I had finished not 5, but 15 or 25 Falcom projects with Jeff, and each time he's sneaking into my CAT translation software exporting a finished Falcom script, pocketing 100% credit/100% payment, year after year, and STILL ghosting me like I never existed ??? WHAT THEN ??? At what point do even the most dedicated XSEED shills like Limfinite/DigitalEmelas recognize this as massive worker abuse ?? Tom/Jeff keep on telling the world they did nothing wrong, right ?? And whether 5 or 50 finished projects involving my free fan labor was involved, Jeff was "free" to keep on making these commercial sales without my consent/negiotiation/involvement, right ??? HOW INSANE IS THAT ??? And yet, these are REAL people who stand by this, STILL unrepentant, STILL won't apologize for it, and worse, STILL spreading lies/misinformation about their victim and the situation! If you finally realized these homicidal psychos/pedo-predators didn't think it through and all the possible ramifications/consequences, then you'd be correct! They didn't! Tom-chan just needed that sweet revenge, that's ALL that mattered to that particular DISGUSTING SOB! He could've let XSEED continue with normal contractors, but nope, I had to be targeted in some way AGAIN!!!! I do wonder if in their heads it still feels "good" or not but you'll never get a straight answer from a psycho liar...

So...I finally figured out why all of XSEED/WyrdWad's friends can be credited for just about anything (including Ys Celceta DVD piracy) but I cannot (they have VERY high standards for people of good/moral character/reputation, you see):
While you are NOT credit-worthy, bold/bald/fat homicidal cock-flashers & wyrdwad pedophiles ARE 'acceptable' for being credited on XSEED Games' localizations...

Ah, you found the place, Red. Well, you deserve credit for finally helping me select a domain name. I also didn't realize the source can be attributed to Alan Oppenheimer's opening line in NEC's Ys Book I & II:

"Ys, the ideal utopia… How could such a land of promise, simply vanish from the face of the planet? How could such prosperity be forgotten? The legend has been silenced for over 700 years. And now, the mystery unfolds…"

It's good enough I suppose and it'd probably take me another year or more to find something better, so that's that...

The main hang-up was choosing between running a personal blog with my patches listed on the side, mainly, like Derrick's (aka D-BOY) place at http://cinnamonpirate.com/, OR, a gathering place with an Ys-oriented theme around it since that's pretty much what my legacy is centered around: Ys patches. So, based on either of the two paths, the domain name would have to reflect it accordingly.

The "Plight of the Fan Translator" title was actually a nod to Disney's old movie "Flight of the Navigator" which I thought was kinda nifty. I also liked it because it was VERY FITTING given most my "constituents" (aka "fan" base) and general (doesn't tie me down to a particular game series), so say in the event I actually did another patch outside of the Ys series (I do have Xak III), it would cause no conflict the way something like 'ysutopia' does, but unfortunately there wasn't any clever way to reduce that title down to an appropriate domain name, at least, none that I could see. Thus, the only idea left was with something like ysutopia.net though it has the limiting problem, etc. But yeah, it's passable, easy to remember, and basically respectable enough where it's not uberdorky. "Ys Utopia.net" should make for a good site logo too! MP83?? =)

Something that I don't get though when it comes to domain names is that it seems you can't secure them beyond a year... I wanted to pay in advance for at least 5 years, but the way things work is with annual intervals; you have a 2 week window to renew your ownership when the year's up... Not too comforting.

Your domain registrar sucks, then. xP I'm not sure how others are, but I use Namecheap.com and .net domains can be registered through them for 1~10 years, for $9.69/yr. I've never had any problems with them. I'm not sure how they compare as far as pricing, though.

Hey duke, welcome back.

I do plan on mass emailing all existing accounts here when this site is ready, so some members will return. Thing is I need help coming up with an Ys oriented theme, an Ys Utopia.net logo, etc. so I wonder if it's better to make the site live and see how many good members come back like johnnybleu to ask for their design help.

Yes, whenever I think of "Ys Utopia" I'm reminded of the wonderful Ys Book I & II intro. God damn amazing. :)

Edit: Wow, the white background of the quoting box looks strange with the rather dark site background. :o So far, that is.

Yeah, it was much worse though, pure white, before I edited this ShinyBlue theme to make it at least grayish. There are other SMF themes to play with, but so far, I like this one well enough, but I wonder to what extent it could be adapted into an Ys oriented theme... I don't have anyone to help me just yet, so it's either waiting for more SMF themes to be released or doing as much as I can myself, as usual...

Ys oriented theme...
I think it would be really good if whatever Ys theme you end up choosing was also an Ys 7 theme.

New site, new entry in the series. Relate both.

It seems Ys 7 already has its own logo so far, and its release is expected in September.

Sorry it's taken me a bit to make a first post since you've reopened the doors. I've been very busy trying to work on a personal business related website and a fan gaming project for Xanadu to possibly get into some kind of game industry related internship over the summer. I've got this weekend to build everything to make it all happen and so far I'm not off to the best start! : )

Other than that, I've been in a Falcom game collecting mood lately and I've been considering starting up a new website project that deals with action-adventure rpgs and has extensive sections on a few titles such as Ys, Xak (Already got that part mostly done from XyZ), Golvellius, Crystalis and the entire line of Xanadu/Faxanadu games, filled with all kinds of content treasures the likes of which not even hardcore Japanese Xanadu sites have seen! : )

Anyhow, it's great to see your place back online and I'll hopefully get a chance to be more active as soon as I can manage to dig up some free time! Also, I think the banner/logo looks very nice. I can always take a crack at designing a big one for the main Ys Utopia index page one of these days if you feel like you can use it.

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHA!

THAT right there is a BLAST from the past my friend!

God, you just can't fathom how it's possible that somebody would actually let something so laughably bad go into the final product... I am glad they did of course, I mean, Last Alert gained legendary status because of it.

EDIT: Nevah forget the legendary Last Alert special by Gameological Society! No better video to complement this new episode!

Yay, the site's back, and I remembered my log-in. 

Oddly enough, I got the email to come back this morning.  Yet, yesterday was my birthday and I got an email from this site saying happy birthday.  YsUtopia?  huh? 


No one will remember today except that two stood against many. I ask you, Father Crom, grant me victory, grant me revenge. And if you will not grant them to me; then the hell with you!

I will crush you.  Your journey ends here.  Oh hey, by the way, you know the only thing that can defeat me is a full set of Silver Equipment.  You.....you what??  Oh.....this is no good.

Good to see these forums back up.  I honestly never expected to see them again.

It's been a hell of a two years for me, mostly spent working my ass off to keep putting food on my table as an entrepreneur in the entertainment sector (in the midwest at that) during these economic troubles while frantically cramming in night classes to work towards a more stable career.

It's not all bad though, since I've always wanted to learn more about electrical engineering anyways, and I still manage a relatively consistent flow of clientele.  And I've discovered that I can pick up some of the financial slack by repairing Xbox 360s (red ring of death is HILARIOUSLY easy to fix it turns out).

Maybe someday (perhaps when I graduate 1 year from now), I'll actually be able to live off of working only 40 hours a week, and will have spare time for extra things (if you know what I mean).

tldr - I probably still won't post or participate much, but it's still good to see it around.

I second the general sentiment..good to see the site back up! I'm also digging the black/brown schema you've got going on. I have to ask though, does the font on the banner remind anyone else of LOTR lettering or is it just me? I’ve been putting in way to many hours at work lately so that might have something to do with it.

I can't believe I didn't bother popping in to say "hi" even though I've been lurking here from the moment NightWolve filled me in.  It's nice to see so many familiar faces (and a couple new ones).

This kinda makes me wonder how long I've been a part of this community, especially considering I've seen it rebuilt at least twice (RIGG, Plight of the Fan Translator, then Ys Utopia)...

the site is looking awesome!! love the red leaf cursor too, nice touch.  Glad youre back.
I take it you haven't played through any of the umpteen remakes of Ys I?  That's not a leaf; it's a <<FLAME SWORD>>.  May as well turn in your Ys badge now - you are not worthy. :P

(Relax, I'm kidding.)

I see Justus and then immediately notice a "Vesper Voyagers v.4" link at his sig, so I click it, but you get a File Not Found error after you click their Download File link. :( You will fix, yesss, Justus?? ;)


Well, it's good that almost everyone's email address was still valid. There were only about 2 addresses that bounced really. I figured with all that time, surely there would be a lot more abandoned addresses with the remaining accounts here. (I screwed up the first batch while getting the hang of SMF's newsletter system for mass mailings, so that's why about 150 out of 238 addresses got that 2nd repeat mail.)

Anyway, welcome back, y'all! Yay!!!!!

So yeah, a new home finally, but there's always so much unfinished work left. Not bad so far though. I'm not terribly crazy about the brownish feel, but it was the best I could do until I can get help from somebody/anybody in improving it. Johnnyblue did the logo and a few buttons for me to get things going, so somewhat off to a good start at least.

That's not a leaf; it's a <<FLAME SWORD>>.  May as well turn in your Ys badge now

Eheh, that was good...

Though, should I be worried somebody else might first think it to be a leaf also?


You break my record, now I break you, like I break your friend!

Ah!  Apparently at some point Zshare.net started sucking 9 dicks in hell.

Well, I'll try switching it to Tindeck.  It started out only working for the Something Awful forums, but I think it works everywhere now.  Guess we'll find out.

Far be it for me to fail to subject everyone possible to my awful awful music.

I'm definitely finally done revising that particular track.  Four revisions of the same music is way too much.  I just couldn't resist doing it with analog synthesizers and some of my newer post-production equipment (including my homemade equalizer).

This is the sort of thing you have to look forward to if I ever get around to writing that Ys 6 alternative soundtrack (only I'll probably use much more 80s-tastic sounds like the old PCE soundtracks)

Wow, I can't believe that this place is back! :) Yay!

I meant to post a few days ago, but I'm on vacation and the only time I can get a decent internet connection is when I'm outside of my hotel. Yes, my hotel has a fantastic view, but only teases with inconsistent wifi.

Anyway...

I think I had just moved back to NJ when I was last here, checking the forums regularly.

Life is a lot better now: I have a stable career and my daughter is now 5 friggin' years old.

That means, comrades, that I do all of the following:
1. Jonas Brothers movie (3D!) opening weekend. Saw it.
2. Hannah Montana movie opening day. Check.
3. High School Musical 3 opening weekend. Check.
4. Disney's crappy music infiltrating my mind? Yes.
5. Me singing along to Disney's music and enjoying it? Yes.
6. Ask me what my favorite Hanah or High School Musical songs are. Go ahead.

Yes, life has changed a wee bit.

Yeah I'm really glad to see the page back up and updated.  I really like the color scheme going on.  Thanks for the message on pcengine-fx.com letting me know this site is up.  I would've thought it was gone for good.
