In case you just need a few more days to work on it, theres an extension available for Saturday.

Just in case you guys forgot~

EDIT: You have to ask for it in the thread (so everyone can see it).

I would like an extension, I've been dealing with a tornado that just hit my area REALLY close by. New England isn't known for this type of extreme weather, so it's hectic. I've also been working a lot, dealing with a lot of priorities. I really hope I can get it in by the end of the day Saturday, but I'll respectfully let you know if I have to forfeit this round.

Thanks in advance, I don't like to just drop out of something I commit to, but there's a lot of stuff going on in my life at this moment, hence the huge decrease in posts.

Edit: I'd like to thank the judges for the honest feedback, my first ever karaoke truly. I also am working with crappy 90's computer speakers (my computer didn't bring any, so I'm using old ones from like Windows 98 era I bet) and a microphone so cheap that it came free with something else I had a long time ago. I also use primitive programs to fix the voice, so I'm actually glad it was clear. My speakers may not be so clear, but I'll try to lessen the power. The mic shakes a lot, but I wanted to make sure you heard me more than the music.

Also, I didn't realize I SHOULD be singing the girl parts, so thanks for the input! I'll try to use a song wtih a single voice next time. As for my real voice, I think I actually will try one that I'm comfortable with. My voice cracks, but last time I checked i passed the Music Theory AP (exam) vocal sight reading section with flying colors. But I could be rusty, I think I'll hit up the major and minor scales again, and do some thirds or something.

Thank guys, really. I really will try to submit soon, but guys. A tornado. Hasn't happened for YEARS. So yea, kinda dealing with that stress, glad that people I care about and even the people I don't are safe, and I'm glad that my co-worker is safe, who I had to push back away from the heavy glass door at my job as it broke off the hinges when the wind came, I almost got hit myself. Scary shit guys, thanks for being patient.

Oh gosh, please give me the extension ><

reason: I fail at life

Oh thanks for the extension, I was going to ask for this because I tried to get a good recording but didn't yesterday.

Submission deadlines are tomorrow! I hope everyone who didn't submit their entries yet had enough time to record and do their best (or at least try, lol). That extension better not had been for nothing. :3

Also, I will be putting up a 6-month subscription in the list of prizes since I am a terrible modder. XD Been getting in a steady stream of money from my job now.

:U Slipping already, animask? Tee hee. lol
Xgor
Ugh, I just got a bad cold so I doubt I can do a decent recording until tomorrow.
ddrXero64
So by the end of the day Sunday correct? Nice, I've been working overboard helping out the tornado relief and working more hours at my job to replace whoever was affected. I'm off tomorrow, I'm sure i can get a good recording sometime in the day. Thanks! I actually came here to say I'd have to forfeit Round 2 so you wouldn't wait on me, but this is good news.
KoromoAmae
Given that the scores go exponentially higher the more contestants there are, I really hope more than 3 people submit for this round.
Krisom
Wondering if you could post the next theme. I don't think I'll be able to record after monday.
I hope it's free choice again ;x;
Nekoroll
D: Animask, where are you?

Is it deadline time yet? Everyone submit your recordings before it's too late! :D

Sending everything tomorrow in the morning.

aaaaaaaaaniiiiiiiiimaaaaaaaaaaaask where is the new theme
KoromoAmae
The current theme is...
Song with the Year you were Born -> Round THREE!
Oh, shit.

edit: I assume he means song FROM the year you were born.
alvisto
This is seriously a very hard theme...

Cause I don't know any english song from 1988...

As well as japanese songs...

Guess I have to try my luck with chinese songs...

@alvisto I'll be thinking of a sub-category for the round really quick. EDIT: Done. Added to title post.

Why is the scoring different than before? Last round we voted 1-6 with only 6 submitting. Now we're voting 4-7 since 3 didn't. Seems kinda odd to be inconsistent.
If we do it this way, the scoring will make more sense if this were an actual race. If the others don't move, then nobody can really get less than 4th place.) In this case, everyone who didn't submit would get tied for 5th place.

We could continue using the 1-7 grading scale, but then the scoring could go all over the place since there are only 4 people. This also means that some numbers will go untouched. We could go with 4-1 points but that would be unfair later on in the game. In fact, not submitting at all is supposed to put you at a disadvantage (but not an elimination).

Questions. Comments.
Nekoroll
Submitted my results. :D
KoromoAmae
I think animask handled the scoring thing in a good way. It makes more sense than anything else I can think up.

Also, we want results!

The first two rounds had a lot of my low range, but back in the 80's they didn't sing in low ranges. In fact, I question the eunuch status of most 80's singers. So get ready for some high-pitched action in round three. Gods help the judges, this is going to be hardcore out of my normal range.

There's the other category with your birth month instead.

I sent a PM to all the contestants, right?
Nekoroll
Hey, other judges, where are your results for round two? Don't tell me you've been putting it off. D: No excuses either since there were only four submissions.

1 day left for judges. 3 days left for contestants. Hope the contestants found this round's theme to be an interesting challenge. Chop chop! :D
rust45
I submitted mine, really, I was putting it off because I wasn't sure about my computer with it's current bi-polar-ness, but it lasted.
jjrocks
Finished mine last night~ I feel like you all did great and I'm excited on what the other judges put. Good luck to you all!

You don't need to sing the entire song, but since there aren't a lot of contestants I guess I could make it 4 minutes instead.

The OP is worded to imply that the time limit only applies to the first round. I assumed everyone else read it like that too.
OzzyOzrock
Oh gosh I'm a failure. I assume the intro isn't needed either?

Too late anyways =w=

I might extend the deadline another day ( for Zelos ).

You don't need an introduction after the first and the time only applies for the first round.

I thought I miss-typed the rules, but thats what it said lol

D: Hurry up other people, I wanna hear more voices.

Imma going for 5 in score this round~ anyways, sent in mine this time.

Silly extensions. :P

You're just giving OzzyOzrock more chances to kill himself. :(

Looking for a judge to replace Zelos if he doesn't make it on time.

(or a back-up judge in general)

EDIT: lulz, he just txt'd me 8 minutes later with his scores
Krisom
Asking for an extension to thursday. If that's not possible, I fear I might have to skip this round.
EDIT: That was meant to be "until friday", anyways, I alredy recorded so nvm

You should probably change the first page then .3.

Cheater. You used the bathroom for an echo effect or something.
You really should've added an instrumental, but it still sounds good.
I like how you changed the song a little to your own style.
Poisonchan wasn't cheating technically. Her computer setup is in a room that is pretty empty and thus, causes the echo. She comes on vent sometimes and it is the same echo that was present in her entry. It did well to mask her singing and I judged according to how it would sound without the echo but for other judges it may have been a little misleading. To be more correct, she was taking advantage of the sound dynamics in her computer's room. So although not "cheating," it does pose a problem if the other judges aren't able to hear the voice without the echo.

On a separate note, entries for this round are due tomorrow! I can't wait to hear everyone's submissions. :)
