What a pedestrian, paint by numbers attempt at trolling..."I'm out on a bike ride", "I've got one more to post"

I could rip it, but it's not going to be high quality. It's really damaged, and the tape itself looks like it's been left in the sun for a while.

:roll:

It's been left in the sun for a while but the art looks crisp and the writing on the tape labels look fresh. Although the handwriting looks somewhat legit, if you look at the Ns and the As, they match other posted Old Tunes Tapes. The BoC Maxima cover on the one you supposedly found, the art is cropped too tight and it appears to say "BoC Maxima" in a Digital style font. When other BoC Maxima tapes did not have any font on the front and also had no clipping of the artwork. Just pointing out some things, not saying you're lying, just picking at some issues.

Where your's has totally different font on a modified cover with no mentioning of "boards of canada".

I'm really suspicious. Yep, the artwork doesn't match up. It's possible that NEUROMUTE is trolling and made these copies up himself or someone local to the FL Goodwill has made them up and sent them there knowing someone will find them and start all this commotion. Either way, a lot of effort has gone into this trolling. Pretty funny tbf. I'd like them to be real, but doubt it very much. Let the games commence :)

The track times appear to match. But I'm not really sure what's up with these. I'll do a sampling of side B in a second. My capstan is fucking up.

How about a proper upload service. I'm not downloading anything with a dedicated executable.
