A big "good luck, have fun" to all the contestants. :D

Sorry, I'm going to drop out.
ddrXero64
I'm surprised I even submitted mine, all these karaoke contests are a mess.
Nekoroll
No matter who turns in their entries, I'll still judge whoever is left. Really the only reason why the attendance to the Grand Prix is low is because of the other karaoke thread. No reason to downtalk them. After all, that would just be promoting a negative mindset, which is something that we wouldn't want. :3 We all want some good, clean, positive fun.

There is still some time left before the deadline.

If you need more time, please ask for an extension in this thread.
ddrXero64
Yea, I'm not downtalking them at all, but I'd be lying if I didn't say I was completely confused between the two. I was hoping there could be some agreement and both could be meshed together to start over (since the other was offering a prize), but they were both running. I practically flipped a coin and picked this one, I don't know the forum well enough to know who's reliable but this one seemed like the better choice.

Anyway, hope it goes well.
Xgor
Hopefully I will have it done today, sorry if I'm late. I haven't got a decent recording so far. (Maybe a extension to tomorrow would be good considering the time zones)

On that note, animask should set up not only the deadline day, but also the time (UTC 0 basically) unless everyone thinks that might be making it a little too serious? XD

Looking forward to hearing the submissions. :D

Oh, should I have announced that there was a 1 day extension?

lol whoops

No reply from Lanttu yet.

Also, KoromoAmae decided to join at this time.
Nekoroll
10 hours since your last post announcing that 1 day extension, animask. I assume that the official deadline has passed now. Have you prepared all the submissions for the judges? :D
Lanttu
I'm sorry, turns out I'm too busy at the moment afterall to take a part in this. ;_; Please continue without me. /me salutes and jumps over the edge

Actually, you can still join.

You'll just be at a disadvantage, but you could still catch up due to the grading system.

That was pretty fun =w= and I'm moderately satisfied with the scores I gave with everyone (there was one though....). Good luck to everyone~
ddrXero64
Hm, I think I got an idea for Round Two. I'll record it when I can, but I'm usually good about doing it on time, usually ahead too. A little more confident too seeing that this thread is still moving. I'll get it in soon for Round Two. :)

I just noticed I'm the only judge that hasn't judged yet, I'm a little busy this weekend but I might be able to find a spot to judge tomorrow if that's alright.

Everyone judged so fast. Less than 24 hours, then BAM!
Quicker than any of the osu!Idols.
KoromoAmae
I'm really glad that animask is sending out the next round for the competitors before the results are up. I think that's the strong point of an event like this.

My only worry is that the absurd cuteness from my round 2 selection won't translate to a male voice.

Dedication, my man. I really love karaoke-type contests and didn't want people to think that they would always be unsuccessful just because of a few bad attempts.

Like Koromo said, it's great to have the next theme up before results are out. Reduces wait time, especially since the Grand Prix doesn't have elimination.

LOL On that note, I'd love to hear the next round of submissions. ;) Good luck to all the contestants again and pchan (although a little bit of a late entry for her).

Does TV shows include anime ? *puppy eyes*

Of course~

EDIT: It also includes MLP, but I doubt anyone would choose that.
alvisto
Oh ya, just wondering, is there any prize for this competition ? xD

Even a mod request prize would be awesome as well.... ORZ...

Well I suppose 3/5 judges do mod! (Zelos, animask, and rust45)
I suppose jjrocks might consent to modding to maybe. (rocky brah)
I'm not sure if Nekoroll mods though. (Nekkkoooo.)
alvisto
Submitted due to the fact that I will be starting to work next Monday... xD Good luck everyone ! xD
rust45
Sent in scores, I just want to say I had a tough time choosing over a couple of you.

I feel like Nekoroll should be my co-host.

Results are in the Scoreboard box.
alvisto
Woohoo ! I get no.1 ! xD Thanks judges :3

Why do you say that? XD I just speak honestly about how I'm feeling and check the boards like 25 times a day because I don't have much else to do other than a job. lol

Congrats to alvisto for getting the lead. Don't forget that since this is grading a la Mario Kart, every contestant still has a chance to win. :D

Also, I don't really mod (other than a "uhhh, I don't know exactly what's wrong with the map but I think it feels off lol") but I can contribute something. Give me some time to think it over. XD

Edit: Not sure if a 6-month subscription would be a little too much for a 7-participant contest, but I could pitch that in as a prize if everything thinks it's okay or have another kind of prize I could do.

We can't hear the other people submissions/can't see feedback on their submissions :<?

Oh right. You should post them up, animask. XD This is pretty important for everyone to learn why certain participants got the results they did.

Only thing I'm worried about is if the other judges would be comfortable having what they ranked each participant displayed out in the open. I hope they're prepared for potential hate, if any. :3 Unless you would prefer to keep each judge as anonymous?
Krisom
I don't think any of the contestants should feel bad about getting their singing judged. If they wanted to participate in the first time, they should be ready for what's next. Also, it's not like if the judges are being just mean on their judging, and I hope they know about music.

Also, something else I noticed is that the scores seems to be. Weird. If this is a grand prix, I'm guessing you're giving scores based on the place the people got and not on the feedback they got (Mario Kart style, first place gets 15 points no matter how fast he got to the end, etc.)
If you are doing it this way, then there's probably something wrong with the scores you applied...

Basically we were to rank the contestants on their singing. At the time, there were 6 contestants, so highest ranking contestant (per judge) would get 6 points down to the lowest (who would get 1 point). Meaning at this point (end of Round 1), the maximum number of points you could have would be 30 (6 points x 5 judges).

It is not exactly like Mario Kart since there are multiple judges, but it is if you factor in that there are 5 judges. Essentially all the scores from all the judges were totaled.
ddrXero64
I'm taking this thread seriously as a friendly competition. I'm not going to assume someone is giving me horrible points unless I have hard proof. I think the scoring is fair unless otherwise proven.

Also, yes, I'd like to see feedback, I'm going to put off the next submission if I can see it so I can improve it.
alvisto
Yea, any feedback would be awesome ! xD

We need more competitors. I don't feel I did that great being 4th out of 7(6).

ROUND 1 Commentary

SPOILER
Zelos
I give alvisto a 6!
He sounds like he could be the actual singer! I heard no messups in it!

I give OzzyOzrock a 5.
Ozzy's voice definitely had a nice flow to it.

I give KoromoAmae a 4
He definitely had a nice voice but I wasn't liking the way he was belting it.

I give Krisom a 3
Krisom's voice was okay. I have no idea if the high pitch is part of the song but I wasn't a big fan of it.

I give ddrXero64 a 2.
I was a bit confused as to why he sung some parts and then stopped at parts. And his voice was a bit over powering. Like it was too loud. Nevertheless it was semi-ok

I give Xgor a 1.
I felt nothing in that. It was flat sounding. It like had no emotion to it in my opinion.

That would be my scoring.


rust45
ddrXero64: I'm just gonna say, you seemed out of tune for most of the song and you seemed to miss note changes with the music.

alvisto: Music kinda overpowered you, but nothing to be worried about. You articulated really well and you seemed to me to be perfectly in tune with no wavering of your voice.

KoromoAmae: Kinda hard to understand you in the first half, but after the first half you started to sound really good and had good dynamics.

OzzyOzrock: Decent, but I thought you could've shaped your notes a bit more.

Xgor: Rather short, and even quality matters more, your unable to show how much endurance you have. Still really good and you have a sexy voice, but the shortness hurt your score and that saddens me.

Krisom: I think I heard your voice crack back down an octave in a couple of spots, but still good and was enjoyable.

Scores:
6: alvisto
5: Krisom
4: Xgor
3: KoromoAmae
2: OzzyOzrock
1:ddrXero64

Voice: It was clear, I could you hear you clearly however, towards the end your voice started to get a bit louder, it generally wasn’t bad but not great
Entertainment: You were passionate I’ll give you that, the song choice was great (a bit biased toward the oldies though)
Timing: ‘Tis good up here, you weren’t off (by too much at least)
Overall: You were passionate~ keep on working on it~

alvisto
Voice: Not bad, not bad at all you have a decent voice (singing a bit too much through the nose?), you were clear and I could understand the lyrics very well
Entertainment: I enjoyed it, good job~ Nice song choice~
Timing: On time, the beginning did sound off though
Overall: Let’s say that background music helped you here, your voice is great overall though.~ Keep on working on it~

KoromoAmae
Voice: Not as clear, the lower you went the harder it was to understand you. Though the voice itself was good (and I mean very good)
Entertainment: D: The song didn’t give you enough time to flex your voice, I don’t mind the song but it only exposed a small fragment of your voice range
Timing: Good.
Overall: Your voice is amazing, but the song choice didn’t allow me to really get a grip on how great it is compared to others, now don’t get me wrong, Your voice sounds fantastic but the song choice made it sound monotone. (Well that was redundant)

OzzyOzrock:
Voice: D: turn your mic down, You were very clear though, on key, and I could understand everything you said
Entertainment: Good song choice
Timing: Yeah, same as most, it was good
Overall: Not much to say actually, it was just...great, good job and continue working

Xgor
Voice: Well it was clear, not sure how “on key” it was though, not as on key as the others though
Entertainment: :I Not very entertaining, better luck next time though, I do sortof like listening to these
Timing: *cough* - don’t know how “on time” that was
Overall: “Like a man!” -lol~ It didn’t help your performance that much in the end, though the main problem was that it was 30 seconds long. Next time~

Krisom
Voice: Pretty much on key, pretty clear
Entertainment: I somewhat enjoyed this, it was a nice song, pretty passionate, really tough choice though
Timing: On time
Overall: Better than some~ It was decent overall, after listening to the actual song as well I think that an instrumental could have complemented your singing

OzzyOzrock - 6
alvisto - 5
KoromoAmae - 4
Krisom - 3
ddrXero -2
Xgor - 1

animask
ddrx - You could have tried singing the girl parts too. 2
I think you were singing too "(mountain) high enough". (lol lame pun)
The end was lulz so I should give some points for personality/entertainment.

alvisto - Singing is clear and smooth. I enjoyed listening to it and could not find any serious flaws. 6

koromo - Great voice control. Seemingly flawless, but lacking energy. 5

ozzy - Nice control, but some parts seemed a little off-key. 3

xgor - There wasn't really much pizzazz. The singing was somewhat stable though. 1

Krisom - There was more spirit put into this one. 4
I doubt that the song itself had this much spirit.

P.S. My comments suck D:
