"Made this years ago"
Did you read the rules? Your track cannot have been started before the posting of this thread (July... 17th? I think?). You now have about 1 and a half days to finish up a brand new track that was started after that time.

Thanks, I thought I did, I was going by these rules,
"You have until 23:59 (11:59 p.m.) Eastern Daylight Time on July 8th, 2016 to link the piece you want the judges to consider in this thread. The piece can be something you wrote years ago, or you can make it from scratch specifically for the competition. You can also change the piece you’d like us to judge by CLEARLY stating in the thread you’d like to change it as well as providing a link to your new piece."

I'll check out the knock out rules now though. Considering all I do is write songs, I have a few that qualify and can submit. I'll see what I need to polish up before the 30th though. thx

Sooo I stayed up and rushed an entire song only to find out that I had 3 more days to work on it T_T

At least it's finished :P

You're expected to make a piece from scratch for the competition. As per the rules, you couldn't have started working on your piece until after the K.O. Round started. Sorry! You each have about 27 hours to upload something you've only worked on since July 16th, when I uploaded this thread.

I'll fix that! Terribly sorry. I'll upload something right now that I've just finished (and started working on after the 16th).

Correction, can't seem to edit the post!

This one is within the rules.

I'm finally done working my piece!! I'm not late, am I?

Oh by the way, I am from the Professional Amateur category.

I was beyond relieved when I found out the deadline was postponed three days, but it turns out that I didn't need it XD anyways here is my entry and good luck to all others who submitted :)

er- now I kinda feel bad for those who submitted in the "proper" original time. At first, I was considering trying to submit before the original deadline even with the addition of the extension, to maybe spare the feeling as one of the many it seems who had not yet submitted. Nevertheless, of course, now I must take the extra time, as I'm sure others hopefully will. This is sure to heat up competition a little. Perhaps this new deadline will be extra firmly in place. I'd be all for that.

As always, good luck to everyone!

Don't feel bad, this was a second chance for the originals to take a second look at their project as well. For example it gave me a chance to fix some minor things in the original track. Make use of all this extra time. This will only make the results all the more interesting.

Those are the guidelines for the auditions. Now that you're in the contest, you need to abide by the contest rules.


hey man, you uh you got something on your face right there, lemme just... ok, there we go, MUCH better, you are looking GOOD AS NEW


I started this piece a few days ago for the AIM competition, but had procrastinated so much that there was no way to get it to a satsfactory state before its deadline. So here it is now!

And since it is art-inspired, here's the piece from whence it came:


Derp.

My submission is in the reply to this comment.
I didn't know I had to make a new one until I saw there was a few hours left, so I just made it in time!


Never give down.

@ForgottenDawn @Dem0lecule Yes, I know. I just thought everyone deserved to know that the deadline has been extended through Saturday, just in case they wanted to make further changes. ;)

@Cursedsnake Even with the deadline extension? :'(

@Manx1 Those are the rules for the Tryout phase. A more composite set of rules can be found here. Thanks! ;)

@AlexMaden I'm afraid @Sebastien01 is correct. You're expected to make a piece completely from scratch for this round. You couldn't have started it before I posted this thread, as per the rules. Sorry! You have 3 days left, man.

@MrCreeperGeometryDas I hope you're aware that the deadline got extended. You can continue working on your piece until Saturday if necessary. ;)

Ok, but I'm happy how it turned out now, I can't really do anything to make it better.

@Palinka10 Your piece still isn't available to the public. You need to go to your project system (the 'P' icon toward the top of the screen), click on "Saturday," and then click "publish." Thanks!

Damn... I was on a holiday, I came back yesterday :( But because of the deadline extension I will be able to finish a song :D And it's hopefully going to be better than 'Voiceless' Sry for not reading the rules, it won't happen again :D

Be afraid. Be very afraid. Not because this song is good, but because you'll be dead in 200 years.

XD, you'll never know... You'll never know if mankind will hack our bodies to live on for over 200 years. I mean, we already know why we age, so it's just a matter of time before we can extent our lifespan .


Resubmitted for your approval...

Doesn't seem to wanna' play the replaced audio file... keeps playin' the original version.
