January 14, 201411 yr I hope Fljótavík aren't planning to pull a Batidas on us. Dandy* still seems to be lurking even though he hasn't posted for like a week since his still unexplained disappearance from the admin team.
January 15, 201411 yr I'M SPOOKED. TARTFORD. I almost sent that '80s jam a few months ago!!! It's IMMENSE. My only problem is I find it hard to compare like with like. Comparing Mandy to Sharon Doorson is like comparing Jason Donovan to Bruno Mars - you know Jason's better but you're not allowed to think that :kink:
January 15, 201411 yr Author Okay, it's now been confirmed (those pesky 16 hours ago are misleading bye) that the first vote was sent to me exactly one hour after this thread opened. I don't mind early voting but one hour? SERIOUSLY? Especially that the length of each semi is more than 2 hours! Can we have like a rule that unless you won't have like internet access for the rest of the week or stuff, you're not allowed to vote until after 2 hours or something? It's a bit ludicrous that one would choose to vote based on recaps when one still has one whole week left. Obviously I can't know if anyone voting today or at the last day base their voted on recaps, but voting within one hour is nothing but a public f*** YOU AND ALL YOUR MP3 PACKS IMMA JUST USE RECAPS/RANDOM.ORG, NOT DECIDED YET slap in the face. My recaps are supposed to be used for GOOD purposes (i.e. refreshing songs in yo memory before you're about to vote to make sure you didn't make any errors etc.) not EVIL ones :angry:
January 15, 201411 yr Author Oh and OOOPS I forgot about new REGULATIONS about deadlines. It's obviously not 8pm but 11:59pm! And I think I accidentally made the Semifinals 8 days long instead of the usual 7 ooops :D (~that was ALL intentional~)

The only other way is of course if you knew so many of the songs before hand, but even then I think you're going on memory only, which isn't fair really.
January 15, 201411 yr I can understand early voting to an extent. Some songs just provide too much pain to listen to the whole song, I'm an offender for not listening to whole songs that are just plain awful.
January 15, 201411 yr But what about songs that develop much later in? My song has an extended intro for ~1min, so at this rate people won't be hearing when it really kicks in. Anyway you can obviously vote as soon as you want (after listening to ALL songs) but 60minutes into the contest seems very suspicious especially as it's one of the biggest semis to date :lol:
January 15, 201411 yr I don't know if I was first to vote or not but I know I was pretty fast on doing my votes mainly for the reason I won't have time later in the week. Edited January 15, 201411 yr by JSG
January 15, 201411 yr But what about songs that develop much later in? My song has an extended intro for ~1min, so at this rate people won't be hearing when it really kicks in. If the intro bores me I always skip through the song to see if it gets going or if it's just too much of a pain to go through. I imagine lots of us do so
January 15, 201411 yr Some songs just provide too much pain to listen to the whole song, I'm an offender for not listening to whole songs that are just plain awful. Aren't you the guy who listened to Higher over 1000 times?
January 15, 201411 yr Aren't you the guy who listened to Higher over 1000 times? He's listened to Higher over 5000 times I've fairly certain!
January 15, 201411 yr Think of all of the good things that could've happened and the life you've wasted in those 10,000*4 minutes!!!
