I'm striving for 5 points!

Elite · « **Reply #73 on:** May 14, 2012, 08:24:16 AM »

yeah, those harsh markings, buh.

ReaperKK · « **Reply #74 on:** May 14, 2012, 09:43:16 AM »

I'm going to get like a 1 this round I think.

jingle.boy · « **Reply #75 on:** May 15, 2012, 07:18:38 AM »

C'mon ... it's been, like, 24 hours!

Jirpo · « **Reply #76 on:** May 15, 2012, 07:21:55 AM »

Sorry! I thought I hadn't recieved one song still but I've listened to all of the ones I've recieved. Will be up within 24 hours.

Nekov · « **Reply #77 on:** May 15, 2012, 07:22:38 AM »

Yay

Accidentally closed the window about halfway through again... why do I keep doing that! Grr *subtracts 1 from everyones score out of frustration*

Round 3

Low scoring round this time... remember it's how you do in comparison to the others! *runs*

Jingle - Iggy Pop - Lust for Life
I hate to keep giving you low scores cause your such a great guy, but I really didn't find this very interesting at all, sorry

I guess it was pretty bouncy but the melodies didn't really do anything for me. Overall I just found it pretty boring

2 Points

Gorille - Ferry Corsten - Ain't no Stoppin'
Solid submission! About average for the round I think. Some catchy vocals and pretty upbeat tune. Interesting that you sent the radio edit! I saw the other version was about double as long. Thanks for something different!

4 Points

Elite - Bruce Springsteen - Rosalita
Hmm not really sure what to say here... cool intro and sax, decent song but didn't really feel a sense of happiness from it. I felt it dragged on a little too.
3 Points

Ravenheart - Nightingale - Atlantis Rising
I hate to keep giving the same people the same scores but this was a really great metal song. The vocals were so damn catchy! Some cool synth work after the second chorus (I think) too. Great submission, thanks!

Will get onto these guys right away.
7 Points

Kari - Eels - Beginners Luck
Pretty solid song with a really nice chorus and pretty bouncy/happy feel. It had a really happy feel which I loved. Overall about average for the round.
4 Points

Reaper - Deadmau5 - I Remember
I was quite excited to see what you sent considering your comments

I loved it! Excatly what I was looking for in the round. Very chilled and happy. Would get a bit higher but I don't think I find it as catchy/bouncy as you. Still one of the standouts of the round!
7 Points

Wolfking - Lost Horizon - Think Not Forever
Above average submission for the round! Some really great vocals here, very powerful and quite uplifting. Some cool riffs and nice guitar work throughout the song. Although some parts were really great, I didn't find the song to be that consistent all the way through. But in the future I will check this band out

5 Points

Nekov - Karmakanic - Turn it up
Like the last song, another above average submission with a really good feeling to it, I loved it straight away. You really nailed the criteria in this one. Loved the vocals and melodies throughout the song. It was just lacking that something special to boost it up to the next level.
5 Points

Don't get down from the low scores! I really do enjoy listening to all these songs. I have given quite hard rounds with little criteria and have recieved a very wide range of music from round to round which is awesome. I just love seeing how you guys interpret the criteria, which I find more interesting than if everyone sends similar songs.

Round 4

Alright, another (horribly) ambiguous round

I want a song that takes you to a certain place, ie. makes you feel as if you are in a forest at night/a summers day at the beach/in the snowy mountains. There is no song length limit because you may need a longer piece for this round to take me on a journey. But be aware if you all send long songs it may take a little longer to get the results in. Please also let me know where this song takes you!

If round 4 criteria sucks, please let me know and if the majority don't like it I will change the round theme. There's no point if you aren't enjoying it! I just really love that sort of atmospheric music but if you guys don't want to do this round then no dramas

Thanks for being such an understanding group and bearing with my stupid rounds and harsh marking!

Glad you liked the song

I will have to think this one through, I think it's an interesting theme. Can you post the standings?

ReaperKK · « **Reply #81 on:** May 16, 2012, 06:20:51 AM »

One song immediately popped into mind, I'm sending via email right now.

EDIT: Sent!

jingle.boy · « **Reply #82 on:** May 16, 2012, 06:25:15 AM »

This criteria doesn't suck.... just having criteria sucks. I prefer more "open" rounds so we can just send you what we like, that might appeal to you. I have over 9000 songs in my library, and this criteria narrows it down to ... oh say a couple hundred, tops.

Oh well, I'll do my best (to get higher than a 4).

Well Jboy, I think you have a point there but the roulettes are also intended to have fun and challenging the person that is sending you a song is part of that fun.

Jirpo · « **Reply #84 on:** May 16, 2012, 06:42:02 AM »

Ok thanks for the input guys. I will try to include a couple more open rounds. I would love everyones input who hasn't posted about the round criteria aswell

I hear ya. I'm totally 100% on board with the organizer running the roulette the way THEY want to - as evidenced by my fucked up structure. Just bitching (probably because I'm failing so miserably!)

Jirpo · « **Reply #86 on:** May 16, 2012, 07:47:16 AM »

Just realised my writeups were pretty lackluster that time... I'll go more in depth from now on. And please let me know what kind of scenario your song choice takes you to!

Would it be too obvious if I sent Highway to hell?

Jesus, I really have to do my best now with this horrible low scores.

Well, can you please post everybody's rankings?

I like this round theme. No objection from me.

I actually do like the criterias, it's just difficult as the criteria might tie into a song well for me but someone else probably would have no idea how I linked the theme and song. I'm happy to keep rolling with it though.

EDIT: Probably won't have a song in for at least another 24 hours.
