Frequent Questions that I ask myself.


You’ve reached the be-all end-all FAQ section directly relating to ‘Magnitude 10′ of this great website and other such quality locations on the web!

I don’t know. Why are you so cutthroat with your questions?

You can learn all about this site in the constantly growing About section!

For now you can ask me anything you wish at this page. The majority of questions will just be pasted and answered in this section. I occasionally will answer some of the more insane formspring messages on that page just to keep it semi-active. Though I can’t imagine keeping formspring around for too much longer and it will probably be replaced with something more professional soon enough. Also I always take emails at magnitudeten@gmail.com!

Well my favorite number is 10, though 5 is a really close second. To me the name Magnitude 10 represents ten and all of it’s following multiples. It also signifies a great amount of force or influence and is only 0.5 higher than the highest recorded Earthquake ever recorded. The name and it’s shortform have been stuck with me since before highschool when I used the name on a project which I later abandoned. But the truth is I have just always liked it for some reason.

Yup. I tend to use it in signatures, music, or at the beginning of filenames. The abbreviation much like the longer version has also been with me forever. Oh, and the gun is pretty neat too.

Oh hell no. Nothing beats the practicality of a shotgun. :)

That’s because Magnitude10.com is one of the many sites nowadays that keep getting picked up by unknown advertising agents or some other form of online douchery. If you go there it’s just a garbage site full of random links or nothing loads at all. Last I checked it was owned by some big time website tycoon in Honolulu, Hawaii rolling in sky high piles of 100 dollar bills. Let the backordering and the bidding war begin!

He’s a Malaysian “youtuber” who likes to post horribly shot home movies, concerts, and vlogs in a language I don’t understand. The only influence he has had on me is that I had to name my Twitter and my Youtube channels Magnitudeten as opposed to Magnitude10 once again throwing me into a hopeless rage.

I had never heard of these guys until now. Magnitude Nine is a metal band and from what I’m hearing they’re actually pretty good. You can find their stuff at this address. Check them out!

Well aside from the three turtle Pokemons Squirtle, Wartortle and Blastoise I’d have to go for Missingno.

While I could wax nostalgic about all the shows I grew up with, I’ll instead go with something I’ve barely even seen. Pole Position. Hardly anything rocks harder than that. Except maybe Tiger Sharks…

I have an intense love for instrumental, classical, experimental, orchestral and choir pieces of all eras. Oh, and movie scores too. That love began before I even understood what music was, and what it was to appreciate music when I would be swelled and moved with chiptune movements from the NES and SNES that taught me that music can take any form and more importantly be minimalistic and atmospheric.

While my taste would go through many musical phases growing up (metal being the most prominent, and the Bizkit) hip hop is something that’s always stuck with me since I was a preteen, beginning with Eminem and the gigantic network of artists he’s worked with such as D12, Dre, Snoop Dogg, Xzibit, and so many more. Then one day my friend Travis exposed me to the Wu-tang Clan with ‘Enter the 36 Chambers’. I suddenly fell into the rabbit hole of their albums, solo productions, Method Man and Redman, Wu-affiliates, and old school rap in general. At some point I also discovered the underground rap circuit of mp3.com and then soundclick.com. I feel that the movement and era I’m familiar with peaked with the works of Shawn Lov, Gentle Jones, and Troy K’s amazing ‘Realm of Wretchedness’.

Why I love rap so much is something that even today I constantly have to defend to friends and loved ones who don’t understand that the lyrics and tone don’t just consist of the egotistical and the juvenile. Or think that because I like rap that it automatically makes me a delusional gangster wannabe, I wish people would understand that it’s simply a matter of personal taste, and I don’t feel I have to contribute to or mimic the culture to appreciate and understand where the music comes from and what it is. It can be many things. It can be fun, dark, emotional, thoughtful, or completely free. It is a genre that is constantly evolving, and a genre that’s never really had a blueprint. And that fascinates me.

Missy Elliot. Black Eyed Peas. Nails on a chalkboard. Anything that can be described as being “CRUNK AZ FUKK”.

Well I completed high school (so I’m qualified to run a Mcdonald’s) and I also have done a course in Graphic Design (so I’m also qualified to be pretentious).

Because if I did it like that anyone with taste would’ve clicked off after seeing the front page.

Good point! Maybe I’ll do that one day…

Yeah, quite a few. Back in 2003/2004 I had a terrible Tripod site where I uploaded music and drew artsy crap. 2005-2007 I used a much better host by the name of Port5 (which I’m pretty sure is gone now) where I promised updates a lot and drew the occasional comic strip while hyping up a game I was too lazy to finish. Aside from those I also maintained a few “blogs” on Livejournal, Facebook etc where I wrote stuff that was for the most part pretty worthless. Also I’m the co-founder of Magnistar and that’s been around since 2005.

I’ll re-upload anything that I feel has held up over the years. Some of it honestly has been lost to time but there’s still a lot of writing, a lot of old drawings, old comic strips, and even a “film” or two that are safely secured in some space I’m renting out of the Disney vault. Unofficially.

Since 2003 I’ve made experimental music with primitive software and the naive dream of making it big. The dream fell through, but it still remains an occasional hobby. I have not made a music page on here as of yet but I will be gradually reintegrating my library of audio files onto my servers for the eventual time that I do decide to make a page for it. The reason why I don’t just upload them all at once is because some of the files were either recorded badly, need editing, or are in need of some serious audio doctoring. Even the files that passed my “testing” will probably still be unacceptable to hxc audiophiles and may have unforeseen hiccups with certain sound systems. Sorry to dissapoint but it’s the best that can be done without actually starting from scratch. Edit: I did have a flash player in my side bar for a few months but I decided it was a really dumb idea. So you’ll just have to wait for the page. Sorry.

My scanner sucks. So eventually. I’m a busy guy too. It’s all coming though, so don’t worry. I’ll even wrap up some crap that never got done. But it’ll be when I feel like it as there is no schedule. When it does happen it’ll likely come in massive chunks and you’ll probably think it stinks. Just like blue cheese.

WordPress (and a lot of other platforms) have quirky formatting that tends to change if you continually edit and add things to a single entry. Even in it’s HTML mode it’s just not as reliable as a page made in notepad.

Because people like you haven’t registered yet. That and I’m a lousy mod.


More coming soon!
