Well I'll leave it a few days to see if Rich changes his mind and if not, I'll see if I think we've got enough people left showing an interest before we carry on. This will surely put a spanner in the works for the 'schedule' as we'll probably need to start the confirmation thread again...

I'm not that bad! :o

 

I won't change my mind...you host it Aaron, you came 2nd and you did a great job with VII which was absolutely brilliant :wub:

:lol: I'm flattered Pavel, but please stay if you still enjoy it

 

I just can't be in a contest that bans or has boycotts against all of my current favourite songs :snif:

Boycotts are pathetic and childish i know i boycotted Love Story but that was for different reasons, and poetic justise, it finished above me

:cry:

 

Please please please please reconsider,

 

please just take a step back, stop hosting and moderating and become a regular country, ignore the debate and remember the thrill of the results when Pixie does amazingly well and how good you feel knowning you've introduced so much good music to so many people.

 

What would my flat do without FSR Rontvia, you have my music taste nailed to a T

 

thing is, people just accuse you of 'friendly voting' even though I know we have near identical music tastes...there is so much sniping and bitching going on all the time, it's even trickled over into the 'Be like Kath' thread in the Common Room :lol: If I find anything amazing that I think you'll like, I'll PM it to you or start a thread in the pop forum, I promise ^_^

It's not that i don't enjoy the contest but i don't enjoy it fully as i did before. :/

 

BTW I totally forgot to mention - Eledan aren't withdrawing for good! :lol: I have only 3 months to do all my tasks for the Uni. I don't want to be on the edge of being expelled like i happened to be last semester :lol:

I might come back at some point in the future once I have distanced myself from it actually, but I really cannot take part for at least a few months if at all...I need to learn to stop taking everything so seriously and once I have I might consider a comeback in the future :lol:

i don't care about this friendly voting crap.

 

You know i'm not and i know i'm not thats all that matters.

 

I feel you are making a snap decision based on a rush of emotion.

 

 

Something like this should be thought out with a clear head and with plenty of time and consideration and not because of a few petty arguments that you didn't start or need to get involved with or come off anywhere near as badly in as you think.

 

Trash has come off worst in the latest one, i came off worst in the ACM and nobody blames you at all for #10's. The theme was never going to please everyone. 40 foreign song's will kill me. The fact that it was more rushed than it should have been was not your fault. You were pressured and excited about the spin off. It happens, nobody cares about it anymore. Just like the ACM was last months thing and is now yesterdays news. The NF rule will take a few days to settle in just as all change does. i was highly annoyed at loosing AQ in VII but i got over it quickly, just like everyone will get over this.

 

It is nothing more than a storm in a tea cup, a rain shower. In the long run this will be good for the contest not bad. You leaving would be bad, very very bad.

 

It never looks good when a big contributor to something leaves. It can be very off putting to newcomers.

 

 

And you should blates do that anywayz innit :smoke: after all i shared X and RBW first.

and now people will probably argue that you are being hypocritical *awaits another backlash and runs away before it starts* :lol:

:smoke: Bring it on :smoke:

 

i had my reasons for not voting Love Story.

ur pretty good actually ^_^

Oh, I thought you were like "oh, HE finished second <_<". :lol:

 

I won't change my mind...you host it Aaron, you came 2nd and you did a great job with VII which was absolutely brilliant :wub:

*sigh* you really should reconsider! VII was only good because of Trashlexis...and the high quality songs that were sent. (FSR Rontvia being one of the main attractions)

As I said in the Lounge, I only mentioned things like Ashton/FSR Rontvia because Kath was saying I vote tactically when I'm far from a consistent supporter of any particular country. Maybe I didn't say it right as I know Phil obviously has a similar taste to you, I was just trying to get a point across that other people look more guilty of friendly voting than me. (not that they actually do!)

ok - a compromise because I don't want to ruin the contest for people:

 

I will not leave the contest and will participate in XV but

 

-Someone else can host

-I will not take part in any ridiculous arguments or petty debates and will try to remain neutral about things

-I don't want to be the mod anymore

-Pavel comes back too

 

I want to be able to find it fun again, but the only way I can do this is to ignore all of the friendly voting accusations, arguments, caring about how well I do with my song etc...and just enjoy it for discovering new music again like I used to. So I'll say yes, I will participate in XV and will not withdraw, but I will not be as obsessed over it as I used to be, deal!?!

I'm sorry to try and sound really horrible about this all. But, I really want to say this. Let this drop, Rich is an extremely vital part of BJSC and I couldn't agree more, he will be an absolute loss to the contest, but whatever we say, he will not change his mind, and if we can, and this is a big if, then we should try and move on and not mourn over this.

 

I don't want people to hate me for this, because I'm quite aware people will start to, I'm not meaning to sound like I don't care about Rich leaving. Far from it, I do care. But, I actually think that Rich would rather that we all enjoy the contest than we all mourn over the loss of members, despite their importance. I am very sad to see Rich, Addy, Pavel and Boyan leave, bare this in mind when reading.

 

I'm going to hide now, because gunshots will be fired over my head. :P

read the post above innit :smoke:

:yahoo: I'm back for XV.

Good to see you've changed your mind Rich, this contest would lose a large asset if you left IMO

 

I agree completly with why you choose to leave originally though, all the arguements had just reached a point of insanity, and the constant nagging about how everything was cheap by some people was also very annoying.

This contest should be enjoyable and about discovering new music (and yes this might be slightly ironic from the person who sent Girls Aloud a few contests back and The Saturdays this one)

Oh, missed that post above!! Good stuff!!! So, Rontvia are just staying for XV or for the long haul or what? I'm happy now, what a rollercoaster of a day, eh?!
Right Ojnoj would like to clarify they are STILL sending Keri and co for this months contest :P

will probably stay for the long haul, just as long as I can refrain from entering into debates and arguments...if I find myself doing that again, I'll leave ^_^

this breaking point was always going to happen with all the arguments going on recently, and I'm sorry I caused a minor crisis on here and it all seemed completelt melodramatic but I just had to relinquish my duties or I'd run the risk of never enjoying this thing again which would have been a shame as I'd never have discovered Will You Remember Me Tomorrow, Secrets and Money Note without the contest ^_^
