VAC14 - The Winners!

[LuckyDee]

!THE WAIT IS OVER!

Without further ado, here are the judges' scores for the final round of VAC14

1. @Tommytomtom619 - 188
2. @SummerOlives - 183.25
3. @OctoBlitz - 181.25
4. @mrRedux - 175.25
5. @JyubWub - 174
6. @PlanetDrewpiter - 163

So massive congratulations to positions 1 through 4, who will be receiving their prize money - $125, $75, $50 and $25 respectively, thanks in part to @GrantTheHierophant's generous contribution. I will be in touch with you on how this will be settled. But that's not all!

First off, @Pingu, who has already been a massive help in the organization of this contest, has offered a serial key for Mixcraft 8 Home Studio and another for Mixcraft 9 Recording Studio as consolation prizes. And to top it off, @Sardinky, has a spare Warm Audio WA-14 to give away to another lucky contestant (the only restriction being they live in the US, to cap shipping costs):

Of course we want these consolation prizes to end up with people who can truly use them, so all contestants (who will be pinged at the bottom to catch their attention) please read this carefully:

• If you competed in any round of the contest, whether as a solo artist or as part of a team, and you can put any of the consolation prizes to good use (and live in the US in case of the mic), send me a DM stating which prize would be a good addition to your home studio
• Alternatively, you may suggest another contestant who you know would benefit from receiving one of the prizes.

You can only suggest 1 prize - I'll consider "one of the serial keys, I have no preference" to be 1 suggestion. You have until Wednesday June 8th 23:59h EDT to submit your suggestion. All suggestions will be reviewed by the judges and the most suitable contestant to receive each prize will be selected and announced in this thread.

Marks, set, ping!

Congrats to all the wonderful winners, you all did absolutely fantastic, and congrats to the big boy @TommyTomTom619 for being the big champ, absolutely well earned my dude <3

If we're talking nominations, I would like to nominate my boy @Nichols with that nice mic there, I feel he could definitely utilise it very well, he has a great knack for voice acting, and can deliver some seriously great performances :)

A little update: an uncle of mine passed away last week and I haven't been able to put the effort into finalizing this that I would have liked. Please bear with me and we'll wrap this up as soon as possible. Thanks.

Please don't rush! The most important thing you can do is make sure you and your family are able to process your loss. Sorry to hear about it

I'm sorry to hear that, man. I hope you and your family are okay. It's important that you take all the time you need. No reason to rush this thing

Right, those were a tougher couple of weeks than I'd bargained for, but we're back in the saddle. Even tougher was the sheer number of people putting in suggestions for the microphone, a prize of which I realized the actual value for most contestants far too late. So for that one I ended up counting the number of received recommendations for each individual actor and multiplied it by their total score in the competition - feeling it would go to someone whose audio quality would benefit from it while already having proven they know what to do with it.

So congratulations @Holden-Liu, the mic is yours! Please report to @Sardinky for further details.

And as for the serial keys, we had exactly two contenders for those, being @Mic285 and @JyubWub - you'll be getting a DM with further info, congrats!

And @Tommytomtom619, @SummerOlives, @InnocentlyCreating, @Invidebit @OctoBlitz and @mrRedux, NG will be transferring you your prize money shortly (@GrantTheHierophant is a special case, as he's both part of one of the winning teams and a contributor to the total prize money).

Thank you one and all once again, for the incredible skits, for all your efforts and for the good sportsmanship. Keep up the great work and hold on to that sense of community, and let's make this line of work shine as much as we can.

Love,

D
