While I am waiting for the NGUAC scores, I guess I can also wait for NGCHIPS V.

Unfortunately virgins only works when combined with volcanoes, which are even harder to find.

Hahaha! My judgments are complete! All Stars & Above Average Joes, you'd best prepare yourselves for my brutal, critical scores and scintillating, precise feedback. Now, we wait for the score release day, when ye shall feel the wrath not only of Finn M-K but also of my devilish counterparts @Trunotfals and @Samulis...

You're in the "Underdogs" group. You're only competing directly with participants with 8 or fewer fans. Let me know if you have more questions!

That's right!

@Comando0110 The deadline for the Knock-out Round submission is July 25th, but please don't start your piece until the results have been released. Thanks!

@TheDukeofJuke Well, no one knows yet. The judges are to finish scoring submissions sometime in the next 12 hours, after which I'll release the results as quickly as possible. Thanks for your patience! :)

Hi everyone. I have some unfortunate news. I’m sure you’re all aware that @Samulis is very fond of cats, and that his childhood pet Mr. Cuddles passed away several years ago. Well, he decided to take all of the chronological risks involved in using the official NGUAC Time Travelling Shuttle to say goodbye to Mr. Cuddles one last time, all the way back in 2009. Due to some unfortunate malfunction of the NGUAC’s TWCD (time warp communication device), we’ve lost touch with Samulis. He’ll need to return to 2017 soon, or else he won’t be able to finish judging.

Luckily, @Bad-Man-Incorporated is an expert at repairing time warp communication devices, but this could still take some time….

Hmm...good question. I would ask him, but he's still stuck in 2009!

IMPORTANT UPDATE, EVERYONE!

Before we could manage to repair the time warp communication device, @Samulis returned to the present anyway!

He reportedly was able to rescue Mr. Cuddles from being hit by the truck that killed him in 2009. Unfortunately, Mr. Cuddles’ death was the whole inspiration behind Samulis’s interest in music, which he used as a coping mechanism. So, the time-altered Samulis we have here now is not even remotely interested in judging these tracks. Now what do we do?!?

Maybe use the multiverse setting on the TWDC and grab a Samulis who Ian interested in judging to finish off the last tracks?

Great thinking, N1NJA! We're still trying to get the TWCD fixed, but when we do we could really use your advice. :D

Hmm...I mean, the transmitter is picking up some signals, but in order to put any out we're going to have to get the extremely rare variety of radioactive Monazite used to power the microphone.

Yeah, I hate music now. It's all terrible- except for 90's murder-mystery documentary music.

Anything that sounds like this will get a 11/10:

Everything else gets an instant 0. You all failed. GL;HF.

Somebody finished judging. *points to self*

*Lights cigarette*

*Looks really cool*

*Wonders how he lit a cigarette while pointing at self*

*Pyrokinesis*

Some really, really impressive entries. Entries that made me go. "WHAT? REALLY?!" In a good way. I left some notes in the spreadsheet, Favorited a few. And was not influenced by Peter aka GoodRaccoon AT ALL. Yet the scores were extremely close anyway.
