**iGotno\_scope** (previously known as **omgdonut**) was a user on the First FamiTracker Forums who was notorious for creating low-quality songs and for his poor attitude towards criticism and grammar. Many forum-goers believe him to be a troll.

## History

### As iGotno\_scope

omgdonut returned to the forums as iGotno\_scope, making his first post to the First FamiTracker Forums on November 11, 2011 with the module "0.0.ftm". At this point, people were mostly helpful to him, giving him tips and guides on how to improve the module.  Two days later, a second thread was created by iGotno\_scope, asking for what the "best" Hxy and Vxx effects were. His next thread received the same reaction as previous modules, but with a somewhat more confrontational tone.

iGotno\_scope created what would be his largest thread on November 22, "listen to the whole thing. plz. TALK". When faced with critique, he simply told his detractors that he was a part of a new wave of tracker music that they could not understand, claiming that he has been playing guitar for 5 years and saying that there was "scientific evidence" for a "best key". Soon after this, jrlepage locked the thread.

iGotno\_scope made use of the pentatonic scale for his fifth thread, although he still managed to push away positive remarks about his module. At this point people began tiring of iGotno\_scope, and replaced any constructive criticism they were giving before with mockery. iGotno\_scope made 3 threads after his fifth, with his final one resulting in 6 members each writing "Get lost."; once this thread was locked. iGotnoscope ceased posting on the forums.

## Musical Style

iGotno\_scope's musical style is haphazard and disorienting. He seems to have little knowledge of music theory or FamiTracker, even admitting in his second thread that he effectively places effects(and presumably notes) completely at random. His songs therefore lack rhythm or tonality. Moreover, he is fond of placing large pitch bends at places, making his already poor melodies even worse.

iGotno\_scope's stated musical influences include Bubble Gun Octopus, iamerror, Insert Disc, Here Comes the Kraken, Waking the Cadaver, and Job for a Cowboy

## Attitude on Forums

During his time on the Forums, iGotno\_scope quickly made enemies, not only due to his songs' quality but also due to his attitude. He would type in a distinctive style with no capitalization whatsoever barely any punctuation and frequent abbreviations and slang. He would often word his responses poorly, giving long-winded rants to small critiques and single word-replies to lengthy explanations.

Initially, iGotno\_scope was somewhat receptive to criticism, but he soon began to push it away, stating that his music was on a different level that other composers couldn't understand.
