an unstable stream of corroded breakbeats surfing through atmospheres created by the union of chaos and light, the distilling of a new substance is taking place.

This is definitly more interesting voting blind, although I reckon I've identified at least 2 people on their style so far, hehe.

Great work guys, some excellent tunage here.

 heh yeah, I can't identify them..

There is particularly good one that must be Dave Akuma's! or respect whoever made it.

maybe to add a new rule?:
the votes will be only calculated for those tracks whose owners've voted.
that's because too easy to upload the track and forget about others.
and not even to bother about the contest itself

fuck, i'm hoping to take an interview with the winner ! Sticking out tongue

You're gonna take an interview with yourself if you get the first place again? Eye-wink

no, man i'm sure the winner isnt me Laughing out loud

How are you so sure man?  You peeking at the scores already huh?  Eye-wink

Only 4 in anyway, gonna go fire up this little baby and do the rest of my votes..sweet. Smiling

nice work guys. material like this makes me wonder why theres so much garbage being released when this stuff should be in rotation


What's this voted partially thing?

Oh, I get it, it's who of the participants has voted only for a few tracks.

Good standard in this one.. I reckon it was better than before?

What do you reckon?


Contayjen:

The standard gets better every time.  And the anon voting works a treat, excellent system you've got here to host more compos now Crank.

why isnt Virus the winner? fuck.
i think Virus is the winner we just need another formula,
not average rating.
fuck i dont know statistics.
there's a lot of averages there.
maybe some another average that
more stable to voting 'peaks'?

i bet tetrabrot's track has shocked everyone Shocked Laughing out loud.

guys tunes are great, just need more polish.
i just dont like dry mono beats & monotonous progressions.
what can i do about. probably nothing Sad

Nothing wrong with the voting system mate, people can vote how they like and you can't tell people what they like.

Thanks for your kind words though mate, much appreciated Smiling

fuck, i have some time consuming family deals.
shit. guano is telling me that we could announce the contest at doa to get some bunch of external votes. maybe to get even more participants from there?
fuck maybe time was too short for voting?
why have i hurried? (really i didnt do that to become a winner Laughing out loud ).
really hoped Virus are the one.
shit. i'm a dumb.
just i didnt want it to take too long time.

the contest wasnt much 'active' so i didnt want to
wait a couple of persons for a couple of weeks.
(mfz promised to vote at the weekend. but i bet
he was hanging with his girl. (congrats, man! Smiling))

at least even i with fucking 56Kbit/s & not much hurrying have voted quite fast.

yeah, dumi was so anxious.

and NOBODY has stopped me ! Sad

ok, i think we need to get more certain
about voting period and external voters/participants.

crank:

anyway i can hide votes again, lock our votes,
and we could try to get some voters from doa, dnbarena and so on.

Hey man....!  Chiiiiiiiilll!

I think this was quite a success.  People knew the voting system (with respect to time), and even if the winner could be worked out using a better formula, we can use it next time.

This whole thing is a bit of a work in progress isn't it?  The more we do, it the more tight it'll be.

...for the next one we could ask people to give comments on things eg beats, production, structure, so they really have to think about it, but for this compo, its probably a bit late.  The rules were totally fine, one week to vote is plenty time, maybe make it 2 at the most if there are more people entering.

I've heard of sore losers before but I've never heard of a sore winner.  Dude, just have a drink and celebrate.  I dont care how early it is, lol.

We should advertise the next one on DOA on somewhere as well I reckon, get some more people.  Keep a limit on it (say 20 entrants) though, as I dont want to spend 3 weeks having to listen to a million tracks.

- I was Virus -
 

I agree with asking people to comment on THE TRACK. More in depth. Help the people out!

for deeper comments more time would be requiered for voting.  setting a theme always makes things interesting. I remember once there was this intercontinental ballistic missle battle or something like that on spinwarp but I really did not catch the meaning of the theme and entered some wierd song, but everybody else was right on droping bombs.
