March 17, 20178 yr Congrats Math! One of the best tracks there and thanks for hosting, especially for putting effort in to try and make the scoreboards. :kink: I'm a little disappointed with how I did honestly, I don't think I got anything higher than a 6 and I really thought this one was (finally) the sort of thing that does well here, because it should be like wide-appealing amazing symphonic rock that gets all the 12s but maybe I... I'm never gonna convert you all to the joys of hardness am I?
March 17, 20178 yr Just curious: how would you rank your Nuggets entries? 1. Garasi - Aggressive Trance 2. Holy Holy - Elevator 3. Letting Up Despite Great Faults - Teenage Tide easy. Edited March 17, 20178 yr by Mattias
March 17, 20178 yr I don't think much will top my One OK Rock track in terms of my own entries, it just has everything *.*
March 17, 20178 yr 1. Kamelot - Liar Liar (Wasteland Monarchy) 2. The Dirty Youth - Fight 3. Rarity - Anne Hathaway 4. Helion Prime - Life Finds A Way 5. Turisas - Ten More Miles 6. Milk Teeth - Brain Food 7. Cruskin - My Soul To The Devil 8. Crucified Barbara - Rock Me Like The Devil all deserved far better etc. iz is the finland of Nuggets who keeps thinking every track will be the Lordi but they never are
March 17, 20178 yr Missed the results for this </3 Congrats Math on the win! Fantastic song you have there, listening again now I have no idea why I skimmed over it, there's just too much quality in this contest. Great to see Beach Weather so high up and fairly happy with mid-table for Inhabited, looks like I scored a lot of trickle points so glad most people liked it. Thanks for all the votes and particularly Pete for the 10! :wub:
March 17, 20178 yr 1. Little May - Hide 2. Alex Lahey - You Don't Think You Like People Like Me 3. The Bright Light Social Hour - Ghost Dance 4. Bahari - Summer Forever 5. The Rigs - The Calling lmao at ranking Girlie Bits part deux over the Cody Christian shirtless scene song Is there a Eurovision equivalent for a country that does well the first time but then lingers consistently at the bottom? I'll take that
March 17, 20178 yr Well that's a reward, congrats Math and thanks for hosting! Hope everything's OK with your family :x I believe that final scoreboard puts me 7th, yass at a 2nd straight top 10 hit in Nuggets *.* Who was it that sent Apocalyptica? I assume dhwe or Addy (unless I just missed the reveal oops). prob addy, i sent radhos sry for not voting lmao i completely f***ed up but next time!! and congrats math!!
March 17, 20178 yr Is there a Eurovision equivalent for a country that does well the first time but then lingers consistently at the bottom? I'll take that I can give you Poland in the 90s or early Latvia... I only chose Finland because they've been heavier than most countries as a rule and most of my Nuggets career has been going too hard for my own good (even though I dearly want to every single time and that ends up being more important than getting a good result although that ends up me thinking they're so good that mostly I'm thinking throughout the contest 'this'll be the one, who wouldn't vote for this?', turns out, most of you). Otherwise I'd have chosen Portugal because of entering every contest, many with less than 20 entrants and never placing higher than 7th.
March 17, 20178 yr Inhabited was actually a BJSC potential but I thought it'd suit this better, lemme see: 1. Wildwood Kin - Salt Of The Earth 2. Jordan Taylor - Feet Of Shadows 3. Inhabited - Open My Eyes None of them really did that well, but this one (I think) is the best I've done and it's the first one I've gone full on rock for with Nuggets (the others are were electro acoustic or folk therefore still guitar).
March 17, 20178 yr Lemme jump on the bandwagon ~ 1. 65daysofstatic - Retreat! Retreat! 2. Polyphia - Euphoria 3. Followed By Ghosts - Clear Blue Sky 4. Cö shu Nie - supercell 5. Echo Lake - Waves 6. MYTHHS - Elements 7. Spring Offensive - Hengelo 8. Fallbrigade - Sunrise My first entry is still my fave by far but I do really love the next 5 still as well ('supercell' was a song I had as a strong potential for BJSC at one point but ultimately kept delaying it too much so just decided to send it here instead... based on this result it would have bombed horrendously in BJSC so a good choice I guess!), I don't really even remember the last two that well though oops. Also, of course my top 4 are all of my instrumental / foreign language entries lol. Thanks to Iz for my second 12 (clearly my main aim with this entry lmao) and congrats to Math on the win, kind of weird and disappointing results tbh but ah well (edit: actually that's only really the top 2 which are both songs that did nothing for me (in fact they were both in my bottom 3 with 'Waves' ranked last oops), the next few songs after that are all ones I voted for so not too bad I guess).
March 17, 20178 yr 01. A Thousand Falls - Lost 02. Overhead The Albatross - Big River Man 03. The Royal Concept - Goldrushed 04. The Enigma TNG - Glass Alice 05. Ghost Bath - Golden Number 06. The Heroin in Your Veins - The First Pain 07. Fever the Ghost - SOURCE I love the first four, the next ones I don't go back to much, they were more entries I sent just for how strikingly standout they were (and ofc. far too niche, we need more fans of nine minute atmospheric black metal). Probably my most ~experimental~ back catalogue of entries as that's the sort of guitar music I prefer these days, but most of them are keepers. I think I'm finding my niche in here, took a long time after my 2nd place in the first edition for me to get any success in here. Edited March 17, 20178 yr by Chez Wombat
March 17, 20178 yr something in this very rough order, not much separating these: Lebanon Hanover PWR BTTM White Lung King Gizzard Girl Band Ex Hex they're all amazing obviously -x- btw cheers for the Rattlesnake points all, top 10 is pretty good going for a song like this
March 17, 20178 yr Aside: are me and Iz the only people who have entered all 8 Nuggets? (this question is being asked directly to Iz)
March 17, 20178 yr Aside: are me and Iz the only people who have entered all 8 Nuggets? (this question is being asked directly to Iz) According to my Nuggets stats sheet which I haven't updated since VI, yes it's just #briz now :magic: That being because two contests ago, Colm, Grebo and 152chris were the only others on the 100% list and none of them are in this contest (with the former two not being in VII either). Although I did have to double-check 152 wasn't here either.
March 18, 20178 yr have i only entered nuggets twice? :o i only remember the japanese song i sent and ok kid
March 18, 20178 yr 1. ONE OK ROCK - The Way Back (Japanese Version) 2. Chrystalyne - Wolves 3. Blackfoxxes - Husk 4. Halocene - Let It Rain I think :thinking:
March 18, 20178 yr This is the scoreboard i got from going through the thread ~ 01 093 Sleeper Agent - Waves Math 02 086 Beach Weather - New Skin Cameron 03 077 Finch - Back To Oblivion The-BrightPlaces 04 069 Lambretta - Bimbo Cal 05 068 Avion Roe - Sing Me To Sleep PeteFromLeeds 06 067 Holy Holy - Elevator Mattias 07 066 The Enigma TNG - Glass Alice Chez Wombat 08 065 Waterparks - Stupid For You JSG 09 056 King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard - Rattlesnake SevenSeize 10 050 Northeast Party House - Perfect Lines Riser 11 049 Apocalyptica - Battery [originally 61, 12 pt deduction] Addy K!ng 12 047 Inhabited - Open My Eyes Jacob Alan 13 040 Halocene - Let It Rain Lindsey 14 039 Melissa Auf Der Maur - Meet Me On The Dark Side FrankLuck 15 038 Head Automatica - Please Please Please (Young Hollywood) travis 16 038 Alex Lahey - I Don't Think You People Like Me Cody Slayberry 17 038 Cö shu Nie - Supercell Bré 18 037 Helion Prime - Love Finds A Way Iz 19 024 The Courtneys - Silver Velvet RabbitFurCoat 20 020 We Were Glue - My Girl HarryEzra 21 010 Radiator Hospital - Cut Your Bangs [originally 22, 12 pt deduction] dhwe some iffy results now i get a closer look at them, Alex/Courtneys/Glue/Radiator Hospital deserved far better :/ brb recruiting more indie rock fans for this thing (split the tie for 15th by most votes, can't remember if that's how it's done in this contest lol)
March 18, 20178 yr Thanks for sorting that Seven, you're a boss! Looks like I did a little better than was originally posted then, my best result position-wise actually, by one position ;o Garasi is still my best points-wise, also by just one point haha (I already have a song I'd love to send to the next one of these, but I'm guessing there will be an UP before that so I may just send it there)
