Dude calm down. Yes he's a bit biased against heavy metal songs, but he provides a distinct difference in the votes. If he wasn't so harsh on the songs, then there would probably be a bunch of ties floating around. Besides i already complained about him and then had a fairly intelligent conversation about music tastes lol So either calm or quit the comp, it's up to you.

*sigh* You people missed the point. Being harsh is good. Being a dick isn't. Leaving good reviews with scores of 2/10 is possible, but saying that a song makes you feel like you are swimming through a pool of crap is entirely different.

And yea, you are right. Now that you and him are friends now due to "a fairly intelligent conversation about music tastes" it should be ignored that most of his reviews were ignorant to the core. That makes all the sense in the world.

I'm sure in his world that made far more sense than in mine.

The point was his reviews were not the least bit constructive and some were flat out abusive. The score was irrelevant. I couldn't care less about whatever score he gave to whomever. But him being a douche to a contestant just because he didn't like metal, and thus left a horrible review that was basically a flame fest was unacceptable and was making the point in this thread. If there had been any semblance of constructive criticism and common decency then there wouldn't be an issue. But there was a lack of both, and thus I decided to say something. And the fact that "he isn't a judge anymore" doesn't matter. He still left crappy reviews and should be called on it. Thus, I called him out on it.

Also, as for dragging this out I couldn't really care less if it makes the rest of you uncomfortable. This is the first contest I've ever seen where a judge compares swimming through pools of poo to a song that was entered. And therefore, I voiced my opinion. Get over it.

We all caught your point, and you aren't catching a simple point of "It has been dealt with, and over". I hated the review he gave us too, but i got over it, and i'm sure the others have too.

And yea, you are right. Now that you and him are friends now due to "a fairly intelligent conversation about music tastes" it should be ignored that most of his reviews were ignorant to the core. That makes all the sense in the world.

This issue would have never been brought up if neither of us would have made metals songs first.

I'm sure in his world that made far more sense than in mine.

He has been called out before, and again, you a bit late on the ball. It has been dealt with.

Also, as for dragging this out I couldn't really care less if it makes the rest of you uncomfortable. This is the first contest I've ever seen where a judge compares swimming through pools of poo to a song that was entered. And therefore, I voiced my opinion. Get over it.

It has nothing to do with making us feel uncomfortable, it's the fact that you're beating a 15 year old dead horse that's already buried in the ground. He ISN'T judging in the comp, if you can't get over the fact that everyone else has gotten over the bad reviews that where left,(Even the ones who got the reviews) then i don't know what to tell you. People are dicks sometimes, sometimes there not, maybe we're ignorant, great thanks for telling us, now please get over it for your sake, otherwise you'll drive yourself mad.

Alright i'm trying to look for the Due Date for the songs for Group 2 but all i see is a flame war, can someone please tell me when the due date it, thanks :D

yay back to the contest. my understanding is that there is still a vacancy left in group two, so the competition for group two hasn't started yet and therefore there is no deadline. somebody correct me if i'm wrong?

No due date yet since there needs to be one or two more people until the group is full. Once that happens, the due date will be established.

lol i've noticed that there will possibly be this massive gap in-between the last matches of both groups. Not to throw another problem into this, but will the person who wins from group one be getting more time because of that gap, or is some sort of precaution being taken?

Yeah, I'm thinking that a random genre will be chosen from the 3 genres that the winner of group 1 and the winner of group 2, so if the winner of group 1 chose classical, trance and dance, and the winner of group 2 chose general rock, glitch and miscellaneous, then a genre is randomly chosen for each of them from those 3 genres. That way they can't start before they know their genres.

Phew. I stop looking at this thread for five minutes and u guys start World War III?? Wow, u guys are good...

Good thing we're back to the competition now, or we'd all have to end up building shelters -.-

Yeah, that about sums it up.

waoh!, i thought the competition started after i invited a friend... silly steph miscounting... lol

anyway i think i may have another invitation to enter this competition... he has a similar name as i.

but is inviting my brother into this allowed, he's probably gonna lose anyway....
i want to know if its allowed before i do this...

Oh noez :P.

Let me guess. 'RustyArmor'? xD

but is inviting my brother into this allowed, he's probably gonna lose anyway....

Sure, lol. Anything to get us to 32 xP.

There is one vacancy left in group 2 that needs filling before things get moving.

To the poster above, get your bro in, even if he isn't good, its good practice for dealing with the feintest amount of pressure/deadlines.

uh, i'm not so sure if this is correct... so i just make a song and get reviewed by judges...
i'm gonna slap'm
ok they say 3 things i can do,
well i cant do any, so i put it on misc.

It looks like he beat me to it. Anyway the name was close, not rusty but DarkenedArmor.
allright so lets start this contest.

but may i ask a favor, i am not in my home state right now, and i dont have access to all of my musical programms. can i get like a week until i actually start making song.

Hell yes! It's about time!

Yay! Time to get to work everyone! The deathmatch will begin...

whenever Supersteph reads the thread again.

Awesome, Group 2 will start! Not exactly now though, I'll send all of the PM's and post the final members list and the deadlines either in another 4 hours or so or sometime tomorrow, since I have to spend the whole day today judging for Group 1 and posting their results thread :\.

Here's the members list for Group 2! PM's will be sent out by Darklight17, since I have no time to do it, so thanks goes to him!
