Hello! Welcome to the voting stage of the seventh edition of Nuggets! Over the past two weeks an entire 30 of you have confirmed a song that you think is going to be better than everyone else's. It's time to find out which of you that is actually true for as you judge the songs listed below.
You have until 23:59 on 06/10/2016 to submit your votes. Even if you didn't enter, feel free to participate in voting, If you did confirm a song you must vote otherwise your entry will receive a 12 point deduction and its very unlikely the deadline will be extended at all
The Nuggets voting format is one that I'm sure most of you are familiar with, the standard ESC 12 point system as shown below

That should be everything I think! So get voting Expect the MP3 pack to be up at some point over the weekend (I'm not using my own computer right now so can't really download 30 songs )
Some names I regonise and some I dont this should be a lot of fun
VOLBEAT?!?!
We're gonna go through all the hard rock/metal bands now are we?
That turnout *.* Hopefully that means a better chance for some great discoveries, or maybe I won't flop this time! (lol who am I kidding).
Honestly this contest is pretty great, it covers so many bases under the rock umbrella, I really cant call a standout winner atm because anyone could snatch it really *.*
One of my potentials for BJSC has cropped up though and another band I've had on my radar for quite some time too so I'm hoping they do well
Amazed that there's not many songs and/or bands that I've heard of in this edition, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
30 entrants!
I literally never thought I'd see the day. Wow at Lindsey's pulling power!
Oops, I was going to submit something for this! Oh well, I'll just have to wait for the next one!
Yea of course, if you want to still listen and submit some votes you're more than welcome to travis, despite not having a song of your own in the mix
mitski was one of my options !
I also toyed with a Black Foxxes song too (not that one) as I thought it would check some FAVOURED BUZZJACK BOXES.
I mean this REALLY picked up towards the end!
It's easiest for me to organise my scoreboards/vote reveals in the order I receive them so if you wanna be announced early, vote asap
I was thinking, I don't think this has been a thing in the past (I've only done like 2 of these contests before this one right enough so I could be wrong) but if I made up a sort of BJSC style odds/predictions/predicta all in one thread for this, would people actually be interested in that? We could call it Fries since it's an add on to the main event, much like Nuggets with a side of Fries
Why is this called Nuggets tho? Is it supposed to be like a reference to discovering a golden nugget or something or am I just missing the point completely
I'LL MAKE THE MP3 PACK TOMORROW I PROMISE
I'm guessing it's to describe nuggets like the gold kind (not the cereal even tho that's great) so a discovery of some musical 'gems' or 'nuggets'.
can i petition to rename it nuggs
How does a plug.dj listen through on Friday at 7:30PM sound?
I'm in.
That sounds great Lindsey!
I did my first listen earlier, not sure yet if I could call it stronger than the last one, but pretty good edition! Gonna let the songs sink in a lil more with some more listens.
I shall be in attendance ;o (to make sure I don't leave voting until the literal last minute as I have tended to in this if nothing else)
Possible change to Thursday, would that still work? Jacob said in the plug thread that he can't do Friday but if more people can make it that night then obviously I'll stick with that
It's up to you guys really which of those days works best for you
Thursday is better for me, apart from EE there is nothing on the box, plus Fridays usually busy with all the chart stuff in the evening.
Okay so lets make it 8pm on Thursday then (after EE ), That seems to suit the majority
wish the plug was tonight lol since I am off.
Did you get my votes? I see my name hasn't changed colour...
REMINDER: NUGGETS LISTEN THROUGH https://plug.dj/buzzjack-listen-thrus/ @8PM,
me and lotti are on now if anyone wants to join for a bit of a pre plug

SORRY FOR THE SHITTY FORMATTING
I hope you can still read it okay, I'm just being lazy tonight to the point i haven't even deleted the running order numbers, im sorry
Quite the interesting contest. Got a few that are a bit boring but most of it is really good and I'll definitely have a tough time cutting it down.
Will vote after doing another listen through (will try and make it this weekend but it might end up being on the last day ) - felt like there was quite a bit of filler in this but certainly a good few highlights as well.
Ugh.
Voted
Any word on the MP3 packs? Usually like to use iTunes to rearrange my votes.
Were there really only ten people in total in the listenthrough?
Yup, well excluding me, I never added stats on for myself either
lol I remember doing stats during the dubtrack days last year
At least self wooting existed there so I don't have to do extra prep work lol
Guys, the MP3 pack is coming (ZippyShare says 25mins to upload ) I spent a good few hours trying to get this to work and I'm still not convinced I've done it correctly but I tried :') I downloaded everything and then opened them all in iTunes then went through and edited the info for each one so they appear under a 'Nuggets 7' album but then when I went into my iTunes Music folder it wasn't there so I ended up copying and pasting the album from iTunes into a ZIP file but the tracks were coming up with their download titles and the order was messing up so I went through each one again and renamed it so at the very least they're in the order they should be within the folder and should keep their order if then opened in windows media player or whatever
I'm hoping that if you open it in iTunes it should come up like an album but idk, I'm sorry if it doesn't
I'll test it when it appears but it sounds like you've got everything sorted there, thanks for going to the trouble.

Looks great, thanks a lot Lindsey!
Voted! (in a zombie like state but nonetheless), definitely a strong and impressively diverse set of songs here with some real keepers, my top 2 are amongst my favourite ever discoveries from this definitely
Yeah the mp3 pack is extracting perfectly (confirmed, a little late) - all the tags very neat too!
I'm getting close to deciding an order.
nuggs
I haven't even listened to all the tracks yet.
Just over a third of the votes received with five days left and one person still on zero points
pls don't leave it to the last minute if you can help it
Voted on this
I'm still after votes from 16 of you! You do still have a few days but I'd really appreciate it if you didn't all leave it until Thursday night as I've got my college graduation followed by a night out that day and would rather not have the majority of the spreadsheet and scoreboards to do on Friday ft. a likely hangover
I will send out reminder PMs on Wednesday but if I still have over ten votes to get by tomorrow night, I'll just send the reminders out then. 12 point deductions will be implicated for anyone who doesn't vote and atm that's really going to make a difference as the points are all really tight
I will vote tomorrow, Lind.
Just finished my second listen-through, I'll put them in order and vote tomorrow night.
Reminders will be sent out shortly
*edit* Done!
The only person who hasn't got one is Math because his inbox is full.
They are coming tonight after Bake off
I FEAR I'VE SEVERELY MISJUDGED THE COMPETITION HUNS
PS kudos to whoever entered that 2016 Be Your Own Pet band #killingit
LINDS I'M VOTING WITHIN THE HOUR WILL U BE HUNGOVER THEN?
Should be with you shortly, just having some PRE MARITAL BREAKDOWN over my 06 and 07 allocation. T4UP (thanks 4 ur patience)
My votes will be in this evening after doing a second listen through x
V4MB
I HAVE NEVER LEFT STH SO LATE BEFORE IM ON EDGE
Really hoping you got my votes
I honestly think 30 entries has become a bit excessive.
Sorry I'm voting so late Lindsey - been away all week and haven't had chance before tonight!
(loved the reminder PMs that were actually named though, the personal touch )
Sent my votes last night! I really enjoyed this contest.
voted!
My votes have landed! x
My top 2 (and maybe even 3rd/4th) are definitely up there with the best discoveries I've ever had from Nuggets Beyond that this wasn't that vintage a contest to be honest but still a good few other pretty fab songs ~
I'm here but some votes aren't lol
Results 100% are coming tonight, probably at 8pm
Thanks to those of you that voted on time, there's only four people that will face a deduction
good luck to everyone, and I am praying for myself for top 20 at best and not bottom 5.
Excited to find out who sent what, not many that seem obvious ~
Might actually be looking at another flop for this one, just hoping it's not true
That's what I'm excited for revealing more than anything tbh, there's a few that are very in line with people's general taste so won't be too surprising but for the most part I think people have ventured out their usual comfort zone a little. There's also quite a few songs you'll think it's definitely someone in particular but then it's not actually them
Anyone got any ideas about who could storm this?
Smoking kills
I would say Gardinelia, Bloom or Mitski.
