August 26, 20186 yr I’m kinda sad that it looks like Joseph won’t do this contest anymore :( I know there are time constraints and anything but a dan shouldn’t discourage you! Ha I'll say the same thing I said when I left last year - I'm open to a return but it'll probably not be anything more than one contest at a time!! The summer contest is perfect cause I've got a lot more time on my hands *.* we'll see :cool: Congrats Rob!!! :o
August 26, 20186 yr Author If it works the same way as Excel you should be able to copy and paste the entire thing into Paint and just upload that as an image, that's how I always upload scoreboards! I'll be able to do it somehow and it'll be tonight ^_^
August 26, 20186 yr Author wait that’s an Apple application? I have NEVER heard of that It comes with apple products doesn't it? Their version of 'word' is called 'pages' and their version of 'excel' is called 'numbers'?
August 26, 20186 yr I’m kinda sad that it looks like Joseph won’t do this contest anymore :( I know there are time constraints and anything but a dan shouldn’t discourage you! what did that danG do now :nono:
August 26, 20186 yr It comes with apple products doesn't it? Their version of 'word' is called 'pages' and their version of 'excel' is called 'numbers'?still never heard of it i'm sorry i don't think i have it on my mac either lol
August 26, 20186 yr still never heard of it i'm sorry i don't think i have it on my mac either lol I don't think it comes pre-installed, you need to download it from the App Store. They also have 'Keynote' which is Apple's version of Powerpoint. ^_^
August 26, 20186 yr what did that danG do now :nono: Ranked Joseph's entry last... but I doubt that's the reason he'll be giving the next contest a miss. :P Ahh so close for FARC but congrats Summericia! First time winner is great to see and I enjoyed the entry too. 27th not too shabby for me. Wasn't really expecting much more than that when I sent it.
August 26, 20186 yr Summericia were consistently near the top of my votes in both the semi and the final so I'm very happy for that to be our winner, and yet another first time winner to boot! I'm exceedingly happy with 5th place as well, lowkey enjoying this Top 10 or BUST streak I'm on this decade even if it does mean the pressure's kinda on for next month (but I'm pretty confident my 108 entry can meet the measure) but hey, that's three strong bids for the crown in TBO at the end of the year already! Rob S, whenever you get in/online to read this, if you're good to host 108 in September then drop one of the mods a line with dates/ect!
August 26, 20186 yr FABULOUS hosting throughout dandy* - definitely going to go up there as one of the best of all-time Definitely agree! Congratulations to Rob - always love a debut win - and good to see a lot of my other faves in the Top 10, including Utopia!
August 26, 20186 yr Yeah dandy you did an amazing job hosting :wub: defo the nicest looking contest I’ve taken part in
August 26, 20186 yr Oh god, that was close...congrats Rob S :wub: I am.taking #21 for kutiman and ignoring the deduction :kink:
August 26, 20186 yr I've only just noticed that I beat Ashton's song by FOUR POINTS. #ashphonia (with what I have to assume were our mutual least favourite songs in this final, or at least very close to that xx) Going to try and get a YTD update up tonight ;o
August 26, 20186 yr OMG!!! this feels so surreal right now lol thanks for the points and everything. I was really pulling for FARC or Espen (especially as I know you missed out loads) Yasss also will pm the mods shortly! ~ really happy with the rest of the top 10 except for Utopia which went over my head, guess it did have wide appeal tho. really happy for Deandria and Aeroche (the latter struggling a lot which is surprising considering they usually slay these contests and the song would have easily been a winner in 2013/14 too! Also happy for Ojnoj, Jadakissnia, Azure and Cor Lupus being in the top 20 as they were all great (jade's being commiserations) and shame for Rollo being last, wasn't my favourite of theirs but it was still decent for what it is! Thanks Dandy, hats off to you for the amazing graphics, was real snazzy and cool and I find it awesome how you do graphics that move!! if only I was as creative as that! Edited August 27, 20186 yr by Rob S~
August 26, 20186 yr I have some songs If they get vetoed I won't bother lookin for any more and will hold our for the Halloween spin off and the joint Christmas/ Existentialist theme
August 26, 20186 yr Re: this being a low scoring winner, just checked and it is the second lowest score for a winner by percentage of possible points (only behind Hervé/Zebra Katz)! But a win is a win of course. x For more fun stats, it's also the 7th song to win while only getting maximum points from one voter (we've never had a winner that didn't get any). Awkwardly enough it was FARC who gave it its only 18, oops ;o There weren't any songs that got more than 3 18s in this contest, a seven-way tie between FARC, Unovia, Espen, New Lexico, Altyr Muunilinst, République d'Ashton and #00274E for the most 18s! No wonder it was all so close ~
August 26, 20186 yr interesting! we don't really seem to get runaway winners anymore, perhaps due to the wide variety that the contest is now, it's tough to find an entry that has enough cross-appeal to win and even tougher to predict the contest's outcome.
August 26, 20186 yr Author Summericia only 9th in the semi then, that must count as a shock win! That's why I was so surprised! FARC only 7th in semi one too. I was looking at you guys predicting and laughing thinking "oh what do they know" but then somehow the votes changed in the final and reflected what you were all expecting and I felt less smug :lol:
