For those who severly ripped apart the score: I'd like to see you do better. It's far too easy to take a negative stand by picking apart bits and pieces of the work. Stop complaining. There's always things to be learned from any piece of music.

Well, not if it's crap. If it's crap, I suppose you could learn about what makes a good piece of music rather than a poor one, but if it's totally ill-devised, the only thing you can learn is that very fact. Not saying Time Machine is bad; it's a great first score thematically. Very nice to listen to, but not a great composition. It's a good start for Badelt.

And the complaint that "I'd like to see you do better" is a bit silly and pointless, since most of us are not composers. Same goes for anything; you compare it to others in its field, not what you personally could accomplish.
