Song Contest 104 (Results posted!)

[Save The Dragons]

Well, now I see what happens when the approximately 2 people who usually give me decent points aren't in the contest. *proud of my score*
Grats Fiji / Ser Arthur Dayne!

i typically like your stuff, this one just missed getting points from me. I've heard the song before done by Alkaline Trio and liked their version better

[Save The Dragons]

also congrats Fiji that song was dope

[Ser Arthur Dayne]

!!!

Thanks!

Nice to see a bunch of people liked the group. As I mentioned before, if you liked Hikaru Nara, you'd prob like their other works, as they make amazing songs (they have a lot of covers, but also originals). Fuyu no Epilogue (Winter's Epilogue) is a particular one I like a lot.

I had fun this contest thought it was a fairly strong one.

Haha I can't, for the life of me, even remember what the songs I voted for were like.
Like apparently I voted for Botswana but the song is a complete blank in my head ._.

[Sesq]

yeah the guitar playing was kinda interesting, i do think ive heard it before but i liked that element

the rest of it was completely unappealing tho

its kinda like that song last contest that had really interesting drums and nothing else

i think it was the general tone of the song that struck a wrong cord

[TheWayItEnds]

i didnt win?

rigged.

[T-Bone]

Yes, how dare the music people liked the most get the most points? I for one, am outraged by this development!

someone doesnt get it

I do get it. You are calling songs that a lot of people in this contest enjoyed enough to give points 'shit'.

Have you considered that maybe your tastes are shit, and that's why your favorites haven't/don't win?

Here's a hint: Everyone has different tastes in music, and the only people who are 'wrong' about music are the ones who complain about what other people like.

I randomly lost 12 points on the second to last results nice

51 is more that i expected tbh this is ok

I feel like this sentence undermines the whole point of your post

[T-Bone]

It does to make a broader point, yes.

Hmm....I am not sure why this happened, but looking back through my backend stuff I see it happened during the backwards-ballot mixup. I basically had to rearrange stuff on the backend to make the "current scores" posts work and something got mixed up in there.

So basically that one post is inaccurate, but it would take too much work to figure out why. The final scores should still be accurate, so I'm just gonna leave it if that's cool with people...

no

the whole post was ironic

also you saying that my tastes are shit and then saying everyone has different taste in music is contradictory. i think you're projecting a lot of anger here, i really couldnt care less. i even said i was happier with the results this time

i love seeing these water-deprived fishies flopping about on land after i have BAITDTHEM!!!! EHHEHE

Also, I know I'm not exactly a site mod or anything but please remember the rules about ad hominim arguments apply site-wide.

[Sesq]

i'm confused about the presence of that

i dont think anything so far has qualified for that (but there is an enjoyable amount of salt).

if you could point to what triggered that thought for you that would be helpful on my end (if i was the one doing it, as i said IDUNNO)

[Song Contest]

Intentionally ignoring that request for now

[T-Bone]

Music snobbery is a pet peeve of mine. Meh, what can I say?

[Parama]

gonna send indie rock next because I hate points

[Sesq]

??? why ???

unless you're just busy with other stuff

if you're just afraid of ticking me off im cool wit it

PEDIT: wasnt your criticism of me that i was being a music snob lol

im just like, lets all be uptight snobs together

and agree that iceland's pick was damn fine

PEDIT2: really? seems like indie rock just absorbs points in these contests like a fuckin vacuum cleaner

unless you're being ironic

[T-Bone]

Dammit you must love all of TEH musics or DIAF

[Parama]

I complain about generic indie rock a lot

So I'm gonna provide a counterpoint

[kraska77]

I'm sending jazz that will prolly do better than any of the songs I entered in the past
But then again I'm pretty shit at predicting how the songs will rank so idk

[Sesq]

Dammit you must love all of TEH musics or DIAF

what does diaf mean

also why is teh capitalized

I complain about generic indie rock a lot

So I'm gonna provide a counterpoint

maybe i should do the same thing

american football, anyone?

actually pls dont submit that i need things to submit

i already have mine set out for next round tho and ive breadcrumbed it

nobodys noticed it yet

prob because its weird late 70s post punk

PEDIT: nice

[Davsto]

I'm entering something and I will give my brief description that everyone is doing now for some reason when the 105 thread is posted

suspense

[Vijarada]

car was robbed. also i was robbed wtf.

[Vijarada]

see i said i'd do lots of aus/nz music which i have but it really hasn't worked. i guess it's time for the big guns, slightly depressing aussie guitar music!
