Didn't think I would make it this far... lets keep this gravy train rolling!

Even if I'm on the "Pro-Ams" group, I still am an underdog at heart (and for practical purposes too).

Staying up a little too late listening to songs. These are really good, guys!


Come join music competitions on Chips Compo and hang on our Discord!

You're welcome!

Also, the tryout submission phase is officially over. No new competitors will be allowed entry into the contest. The final count: 176 participants. That's amazing, guys! Well over 100 participants more than last year! :D I'm very pleased.

Unfortunately, @Arbelamram and @Reptiore have been disqualified because their tracks cannot be publicly accessed. I warned you both of this several hours in advance.

Pretty soon, I'll be posting a complete list of competitors and their tracks right here, for the use of the judges and, quite frankly, to make sure I didn't screw up anything!

I'm ridiculously excited for this contest, and I hope you are too! Good luck, everyone. ;D

damn the submission in the portal thing is so buggy... u need to press on the submit thing 100 times for it to work and its confusing...i will ask for an other chance if possible...
anyway GL HF for everyone the participant

If @Lich and I get through to Round 1 then I should have plenty of time to go over to his place and use his super nasty-sounding hardware voice rack for our submissions. Chilling stuff, I was chatting to him on voice via Skype last night and he turned all of the racks on. Just... damn. I want to use it!

Don't confuse this thread with the NGADM thread, buddy ;) I'm a judge here, not a contestant.

@Dubwolfer @FoxyPanda69 @ToxicGeek @Lasse @TSRBand I hope you guys realize that no one has made it into the competition yet. The above lists are just a convenient way for the judges to be able to find and listen to all your tracks and for you to make sure we're judging the song you wanted us to judge. Sorry if you already know this, but your posts made it seem like we had already determined who was going to be in the next round. Those results are scheduled for release on Monday.

Just a random idiot


Hope I am on time. Going to give it a spin, need to get ready for work now. Here is my entry!

F, I am too late. New job is killing me. If you want to make an exception, I would appreciate it. If not I understand.

For the record, I would have no problem with making an exception here, but I'm not @TaintedLogic. Surely it wouldn't slow down the judging process too much?

Hahha, whoah. Compared to the other people on that list, I'm no monster at all :D
You'll definitely stand a chance, at least against me ;)
Anywho, there are other monsters in the all-stars group too, like @dem0lecule and such o.O

I'm sorry...can you be a bit more specific, please? Did I put him in the wrong group? Or did I link the wrong track?

@Frootza I'm really sorry, but I'm afraid I can't make an exception here. I already denied some other latecomers, and, besides, you would be an All-Star if I let you in, the group that already has the most members. Therefore, I wouldn't be able to re-distribute the participants evenly among the groups without it affecting 2-3 more people, who may have already gotten scored in their current groups. I will, however, personally review your track in apology, but please give me a day or two. I'm really busy throughout the judging phase! I also encourage you to audition for the NGADM if you're looking for an audio contest to partake in. I'm sorry I can't accept you at this point, but I wish you the best of luck with your music. Thanks in advance for understanding. ;(

I'm in the ALL-STAR list

There's no best or worst, this is just so that we can have three equally sized groups based on your fan/follower number, makes it structured so we can methodically advance to the next rounds. This helps to make the competition fairer as well, as you will generally be competing with people with the same exposure level as you. (granted we know fan number is not representative of your talent or anything but we need some sort of reference!)

Hope this answered your question. Good luck to you, looking forward to hearing your track :) @TaintedLogic please let me know if I said anything wrong. :D

Thank you Bird! It seems I'm out though, Tainted is running the particular contest. But I was hesitant to begin with since I wasn't sure what number of fans qualified per category. Didn't realize I was an All-Star already though which is cool!

No worries TL, good luck with the judging and such! I just lost a day's time in my head for some reason. If a time arises where there is a possibility of redistributing the categories, I'd still be willing to participate. Have fun!
