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...

Help Wanted. Web/Graphics Designers Apply Here!
« on: Mar. 19, 2006, 04:18:28 PM »
Position: Graphics/Web Designer

I'm looking for someone to help redesign this site to something more impressive using the current black theme as a starting point preferably. It's also preferable if you know HTML/CSS, but if you can only work as a graphics creator/designer and create images and mockups for me of your design, that's fine too. I'll just have to do the coding grunt work of implementing your design myself. If you've ever created your own theme for a Simple Machines Forum, that's even better.

But first, I have an existing style I did for my new Ys I project page. I would like to see any better redesigns if you're creative enough. The page is here if you haven't already seen it:

https://www.ysutopia.net/translations/ys1c/

Check this thread for more details. That'll be your first assignment before dealing with the whole theme.

Your reward for a serious effort will include early access to a Felghana patch. By serious effort, that means a tangible impressive design that shows you actually put some time into making it look good and it's something I can use. So if you're an Ys fan and know web design, apply for the job here. I'm not looking for any quicki, "Hey NightWolve, check this image out? Is that cool?" type results. I need results with something good, so don't apply if you're not serious about this and have limited time. I'm gonna be relying on you to help design my site as an equal partner and as such I will expect some dedication to see the task to the end. So if you want a Felghana patch, you will have to actually earn it.


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

I have good news for you, NightWolve.

I have mentioned to you in the past that I work for a small web design firm called Mile-End Media.  Since you posted an official "Help Wanted" ad, I decided to run it by Marina, our graphic artist.

I probably haven't said this enough in the past, but I really appreciate the effort you put into your translation projects.  I promised myself that, once the Felghana patch was released, I would donate $10-$15 for every title you translated that I enjoyed.  So far, that's only two (Ys I & Ys II -- I haven't played the others), but that's likely to be five by the end of the year (Dawn, Felghana, and Napishtim).

Instead of making one huge donation, I've instead decided to hire Marina to redesign the site, and I'll help out with the programming if need be.  While Marina thinks the site needs to be streamlined quite a bit (her first impression was the same as mine: this site is too cluttered), she is willing to provide a new concept (industry term for fresh redesign) for a large discount as a favor to me.  Bear in mind that a fresh concept normally costs $300-$500, and you're getting professional help 8).

Marina says she will start working on the site this upcoming weekend, so you might want to contact her before then to discuss what will and will not be included in the redesign (I'll PM her email address to you in a moment).

Let me know what you think about this idea and I'll relay your thoughts to Marina (and tell her to go ahead / forget it, as appropriate).

Hm, that's a very interesting offer. My only fear with using a paid professional is, your offering it as a gift and that's cool, but what if she can't produce anything that I like??

Btw, the left and right columns are not an issue for me. They take an equal amount of width, so it's only a matter of vertical stacking of blocks after that, and I pretty much have all the blocks that I like having. You can most live without the right column, and there's that white square with the arrow on it to completely hide it, so that takes care of that per individual's taste. It's not necessary to hide all that permanently for everybody.

Anyway, my issue is with coloring, maybe new graphics for the links, menus, buttons, etc. a logo, and a template for the project pages and index, the overall theme perhaps. Can she give me a few samples working off what I have now before going forward, to give some idea of what she can do? I dunno, I just don't want you to pay for nothing and me being picky wind up not going ahead and using whatever she might produce... That's why I was preferring to look for an Ys fan motivated to impress to gain access to a Felghana patch.

But then again, in all the years I ran RIGG, I never found anyone to help with that forum's theme, so maybe a professional is the only way to go.

Alright, I'll wait up for you before emailing her or let you handle it. If you think she can do something with a geeky fansite, I'll be willing to trust your judgment. I would guess though she's mostly done professional business sites and this isn't her area, so to speak.

Oh, I should add this:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v321/MP83/potft_mock1.jpg

MP83 helped with that. I'm kinda interested in a "Plight of the Fan Translator" logo like that, that could maybe be improved upon, but yeah, I think that has some potential.

Does she have MSN or AIM btw? I don't know what that chatting system is that you mentioned in the pm.

Hey Nightwolve!  Love to help man.  If you're still looking for a new theme.  I'll work something up and post it here.  I have some html experience, some.  Pretty good with Photoshop and a huge Ys..Falcom fan.  Started with TG-16.  Eh well, see what I can do.  Great work!

Hey, you still around Big Buck? I didn't notice this. Must've been while I was busy and occasionally screwed up my new posts browsing. Sure, I would like to see what you can do.

but you're not getting just a redesign (which i think you could live with and even grow to like were you not to like it initially), you're also getting web compliance standards adherence and solutions for lowering bandwidth.  or at least i would hope that's the aim of a professional web developer.

not trying to sway you in any way, just thinking of different ways to address the situation.

Of course, this is to be expected when one relies on a relatively new graphic designer as opposed to a tried-and-true veteran.  I'll admit I made a mistake by referring her to you.

With a few notable exceptions, Marina's designs are very "corporate" - very businesslike.  I'll admit that I wasn't as familiar with her work as I am now when I proposed the offer, and I haven't heard from her since I left the company not too long ago.  (Curiously, she misspelled my name on the "About Us" page of our site... and it still hasn't been corrected.)

Before Marina, our graphic designer went by the name of Veronique (Vero for short).  Her designs were quite simply amazing (see www.furmir.com and www.crestrealties.com for a couple of her brainchildren, programmed by yours truly).  Vero is very flexible in terms of design (her professional sites don't look anything like the personal sites she has done -- too bad I can't find any of them that are still up...).  I honestly wish I could have referred her to you instead, but she left the company about a year before I did, and I haven't been able to get in touch with her since.

I currently work at Pratt & Whitney.  I left Mile-End Media because I wanted to broaden my career horizons.  There are many careers in the Computer Science discipline, but I only have first-hand experience with professional website development.  As much as I enjoy it, I want to know what other options I have before I devote my life to a single career path.

Fortunately, I enjoy my new job.  My supervisor is constantly surprised by my tendency to inadvertently one-up his coding style.  Next year, I plan to return to university.  Once that's over and done with, I'll have made my decision as to which company I want to return to.  If I return to Pratt, I'll have to move because the 2-hour-each-way commute is a real vampire on my energy and free time.
