However there is the equal chance that people have more chance of Losing also, so just forget this post even existed, ok?

Only 4 people will win either way :P This just tunes the winners more to the general consensus, instead of just to the opinion of two people.

I just hope that the judging is unbiased :P and gives us new submitters a good listen as well :)

Strangely enough, it perfectly reflects the way the relationship ended... without a reason
without any anger... just... because

I believe it will be up in a few days.. there are indeed a lot of submissions to sort through, so it is very understandable that it might take a bit.

I'll post the FINAL SUBMISSION list around the 4th or 5th of August. OMG WHY!?

Simple, because some of you get the time to talk with MaestroRage incase your entry was rejected as well as sorting some things and get all settled for the judging phase.

again, because you keep ignoring it. fools.

I'm sure a few will - and not for the intended reasons either :D

Anyone want to help judge? DO NOT POST IN THIS TOPIC - send a PM.

thanks all

Hey Guys! Good Luck!

I've just come back from Wales, I was there a week. It was SHITE. It rained the whole time D':

I didn't know that it was extended so I was getting excited going onto the BBS. Ah wells, Its only a few more days :P

Instead of being a judge, I just reviewed 70 of the songs. You can find my review in most of them a good guide on how to judge if you wish. If I were going to be a judge.. I would judge on originallity. Because almost all of these songs are piano songs with violins and drums. Lol It got kind of annoying.

Whatever I can't think right now anyway.. I got all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed. UGH. So even if I wante to be a judge I couldnt lol.

YEah, I could see that..the same originality complaint I saw in your reviews. Did it really bother you? Whatever instruments used, I don't think it matters. As long as it sounds good, you know?

I don't appreciate the way you reviewed those 70 songs (mine included). I hope I'm speaking on behalf of the others who you OH SO GRACIOUSLY took the time to review.

Most of the reviews you left mainly pointed out negatives (some of them nonsensical and made up), often about how submissions were either unoriginal or not sad. You also liked to mention how you didn't think certain entries would win.

I'm not saying you should always avoid giving negative comments, but there's a difference between leaving constructive criticism and having a (not so) hidden agenda.

If I were going to be a judge.. I would judge on originallity. Because almost all of these songs are piano songs with violins and drums. Lol It got kind of annoying.

If that's the approach somebody else decided to take, fine. It's not your business to decide how it should be judged accordingly.

If you want to be a judge, forfeit your submissions and do it, but don't "backseat judge" by giving passive aggressive reviews on a majority of the entries while you're still in the competition and hoping to win, just like everybody else.

This post is so emo.

He said that my most emotional song, Dreamstate, wasn't Emotional because its trance. Trance is the emotional Electronic Genre :P He also said "It won't win".

This post is so Bitchy.

I feel so Bitchy.

No, I like it. Even though I have no direct involvement with it, you bitched for me. Thanks.

There's a lot of emo-ness going on in here. Kinda makes me laugh. We should counterbalance it and make the next MAC happy-hardcore or something.. lol

le gasp!

You DIDN'T!!

all judges, to keep things fair, please do not scroll down to read reviews as you listen once the final list goes up. It is impossible to remain fully unbiased if you do, and those will show up on your judge scores, which will risk being discarded.

PM LJCoffee or myself your scores.

You cannot judge if you competed.
