For some reason I thought we had a couple of days left, but I'm not far off finishing listening so I should be able to vote tonight.
Will the results thread still be up tomorrow evening if you're extending the deadline?

I'm sure this was already brought up :unsure:

 

Unless it was in the mods lounge.

 

 

Either way, the answer is as follows:

 

Yes.

 

Spin-offs are to be considered separate to the contest to the extent that we will allow covers of BJSC songs to be entered in the spin offs [or in KOS's case the same song but in a different language, which really did change the song tbf] and vies versa. Entering the same track by the same artist to both is just lazy and we won't allow it.

 

And yes, i know covers are reasonably uninspired entries, but it's not as if many people would have heard the Le Kid version without BJSC. If Run DMC/Aerosmith - Walk This Way had been entered in the spin off and someone had tried to enter the Sugababes/GA cover they'd be laughed out the forum. Partially because of the fact that it's the Sugababes and Girls Aloud who have two of the biggest AF's by members on the forum and mainly because everyone would have heard it without the contest.

 

Basically, what i'm trying to say is yes, but it depends on who the cover is by.

yep, same time :)

May i just say that Psycho from here is quite possibly the worst song ever made. After all Pixie Lott's past, present and future records obviously.
Lauren Taveras is my new God.

Managed to cut it down to 17 tracks after the first round :funky:

 

And i know who my top 5.

 

Just got to order the others now :drama:

I may not be able to vote by the deadline, I'm also guilty of thinking I had more time (I know, I know I should learn2read). I've only listened to half of the songs, and I will be off the computer soon. I will attempt to get up early tomorrow to get it in by 10am if that's okay.

It took me 2 hours to listen to all songs and vote. Efficient i am :D

 

15th song in my ranking barely scraped a 7/10 :( Pretty alright quality overall though!

The Federal Republic of Ashton has submitted it's voted to neighbour's Hendinia after tonights final show was broadcast to a record number of viewers in Ashton.

 

17 of the contests entries have entered the Ashtonise top 20 making it the first time ever all the countries getting points from Ashton have charted in the countries top 20.

 

Ashton ranked it's voted entries as follows:

 

4 x 10

3 x 9.5

5 x 9

3 x 8.5

 

2 x 8's narrowly missed out on points.

 

The remaining tracks scored as follows:

 

2 x 7.5

5 x 7

2 x 6

1 x 5

1 x 4.5

2 x 4

2 x 3

1 x 2

1 x 0

Alright Daniel :)

 

With Ashton's votes - I believe we're needing just 10 countries votes now:

 

isconia

numayania

yuxhaaq

lorikeet

skall

palmyra

kopecka

quotosibb

b.a.n.g

new caprica

 

 

I hope at least Lorikeet and Palmyra vote. :/

Lorikeet HAVE to vote.

 

Aled actually likes my track and i really don't want this to be XV all over again where i could have done with the support from Lorikeet.

I didn't give big points to Patrick Wolf in vain Lorikeet. :angry: So do bother voting please!
