Alright, time's up. Any posts to your songs for Round 1 from now on won't count. Sad to see some people forfeiting and other people not even bothering to post, but whatever, Round 2 should go on much more smoothly.

Judging comes in another 2 days...

sorry man but like everyone else said you didn't provide enough time - and during the christmas holidays when wwe're all running around and shit - I thought I had mroe time but I guess that means I forfeit as well - congrats vanguard you move on - I really don't deserve to participate in this contest anyways as I am already well established on this site - hopefully whoever wins will be an underdog that deserves some much needed recognition :)

FUCK all that work for nothing. Oh well... I probably wouldn't have won anyway.

Can the judges at least score my song so I can see how I did?

And will I get re-paired on the next round?

he may not have given everyone enough time, but he did give everyone a clear date as to when it was due. And isn't the whole point to the contest to be able to dish something out with in the time limit anyway, no matter the cost. I think thats why they called it a DEATH match, cuz you might die in the process of making the song with in the time constraints.

Dragonteenager and eatmeetleet, sorry but you totally wasted your time doing your songs xD.

Not really. 10 bucks an hour for standing the whole time and no breaks.

Today I started at 7:10 AM and didn't get to leave until 8:45 PM. Yay for 13 and a half hour shifts of standing and because it was packed I didn't get to eat :( Half a slice of pizza and a bottle of water.

Wow, you guys are like the best participants ever :3. I expected that I'd be doing these lists, but instead I see Kirbyfemur, I-Saved-The-World and aliaspharow (who isn't really a participant, but he still did the list without being asked...) doing it all for me. Thanks, everyone ^^.

ImperfectDisciple vs Kazmo

Hm... we have a problem here. Both of these aren't taking part...
Well, I'll ask wtflolnoob who's the first person in Group 2 if he can take the place of one of them. It may seem unfair that he passed to Round 2 automatically, but there isn't really any other way. To make up for it, I might put him against someone hard :P.

Thanks again man.

By the way, just in case some of you are curious, next year we'll probably be doing the 2010 NGADM which will probably start sometime before summer, so there's no excuse to have no time. We have some really good ideas which will prevent people from making songs before the contest starts and stuff, and we'll have more judges. This is all if everyone thinks it's a good idea.

I have some judging to do...

Here's what I'll do. To make things fair, anyone whose opponent dropped out will get a review from me on the song he made for the contest, and I'll make sure it's a big one. At least you'll get something out of making that song ;).

And will I get re-paired on the next round?

Obviously :P.

Just saying that judging has already started. Blackhole12 will be reviewing your songs so you can see his score (which will be rather low. He's very harsh :P) and then Darklight and I will post our brief criticism in a new thread, and I will calculate the average scores ;).

Good luck to everyone!

I hate to say this, but i think Blackhole is a bit biased in his reviews. I mean he was far more lenient towards the more electronic songs than to others. Though i wouldn't have said anything if he hadn't been kind of a dick to Pure-Metal-UTA. lol He got to the point where instead of reviewing and critiquing the song he was bashing them just for sucking:

He also seems to have an issue with dissonance and accidentals being used in songs.
I am really trying hard to keep this from sounding like complaining. It's just when someone tells you it's utter crap, it's nice to get some advice on how to fix it. And if you think I'm doing this just because i got a low score from him, then you're wrong. I'm afraid that the voting may end up becoming one sided against songs that aren't of some sort of electronic genre.

And he's just pumping out reviews like there's no tomorrow, I don't see how he's giving himself enough time to even listen to the songs. =\
Sorry for my whinyness.

Sorry for my whinyness.

I did listen to every single song, in full, all the way through. I listened to both your songs twice, even though it was painful to do so.

You are completely correct - I hate metal. I hate death metal, I don't think its music, I think its crap, and those songs are, in my mind, crap.

This is why we have 3 judges, not one.

As a judge, I am required to review all songs, and I even went and confirmed with supersteph54 before reviewing your songs because I knew that you guys were going to hate me for it. The fact that I obviously don't like metal nor have any experience with it will be taken into consideration when the final tally's are made. Honesty, however, is required during the judging process. You are free to tell me how much of a dick I am, its just not going to change anything :D

Again, I'm not the only judge. There are three judges for the precise reason of smoothing out biases and this is why.

You are completely correct - I hate metal. I hate death metal, I don't think its music, I think its crap, and those songs are, in my mind, crap.

This is why we have 3 judges, not one.

As a judge, I am required to review all songs, and I even went and confirmed with supersteph54 before reviewing your songs because I knew that you guys were going to hate me for it. The fact that I obviously don't like metal nor have any experience with it will be taken into consideration when the final tally's are made. Honesty, however, is required during the judging process. You are free to tell me how much of a dick I am, its just not going to change anything :D

Again, I'm not the only judge. There are three judges for the precise reason of smoothing out biases and this is why.

Haha well I'm glad that was settled.
And hey, i have a deep disliking for most electronic music. It honestly requires nothing but a lot of time on ones hands, basic musical knowledge and the knowledge of using the same beats over and over again because people can't seem to find anything else to use, and it's destroying the imaginations of the new generation of musicians.

Now that we've found some common ground we should be fwiends!!! =P

Guh, I was about to get ready to try and stop a flame war between you and Blackhole, and yet you don't start one. Man, you're so understanding, if everyone on NG was like you NG would be a much better place O.O.

Anyway, glad this has been resolved so quickly ^^.

He's very harsh :P) and then Darklight and I will post our brief criticism in a new thread, and I will calculate the average scores ;).

I also noticed that judges are 14-16 years old.. (: Correct me if I am wrong

That's a bit of a narrow-minded judgment. A lot of electronic I've heard, is inspired by lots of genre's. Jazz, acoustic, pop, rap, metal. And a lot of the electronic music includes these genres, making sub genres like Acid house, Liquid, Industrial.

Also, you quite simply cannot judge genre's on musical technicality. Take Eric Clapton for example, he claims to have had no musical knowledge, it just sounded good to him.

If anything, electronic music is sort of a revolution in music.

Lol sorry, i was a bit snippy with my response. I had lumped together the majority without even partially mentioning the minority. Trust me i'm not going to go and say electronic music is the only type of music destroying our youth. (Imagination wise i mean). Nearly EVERYTHING that has hit the airwaves has been generic bullshit, with little bits of candy at the very core. But in order to get that candy you have to search through all of that shit, then clean off the excess matter before you find anything original now adays.

Lolsadly i was half expecting to have to participate in a flame war. I'm just glad Blackhole isn't like half of the people here on NG who would just be looking to pick a fight. And if everyone on NG where as understanding as me people might start thinking that Newgrounds is just one great big pussy, since no one would really want to fight. xD
Though if someone says something that I know is wrong I'll try to respond the best i can, but if i must bitch, i will!! =3
