Sample Pack contest 37 - roll call...

[alphacat]

nervous as fudge haha, but i'll still do my best.

That means you care and thus stand a decent chance already.

[dublerium]

Will do so if I get time which is unlikely with last year of uni starting + life

I'm a grown-ass man with a heavy IT job, a wife, and two kids... if I can do it, you should have no problem setting aside a little time between drinking and study binges to make a tune!

Hey alphacat, that's just like me!

My two cents on the issues raised earlier. On too many entries: I don't think there will be that many (there was only 4 last time). For me, it's not a problem to listen to all of them, even if there's 32.

On voting (apologies if this has been brought up before): To me this would be more important. Having to choose a single tune is too restricting. If there's around 10-11 tunes, maybe I'll like 2 or 3 of them very much. Being forced to narrow that down to a single entry is less than ideal. In my opinion, voters should be allowed to score each tune on a scale of 1-10. (This might lead to some other issues, e.g. voters not agreeing what a 10 should mean, etc.) It's still a better way in my opinion, in DSF34 there were two entries that didn't receive a single vote. Those would at least get a score.

theres rounds....

plus4 - we're not trying to stroke each other's egos here.
No point in giving votes to tunes that you don't like.
We don't want to give ppl a false sense of value.

There can be only one.

can i be involved?

[wub]

in DSF34 there were two entries that didn't receive a single vote.

It could mean that they weren't very good, or at least not as good as the other tunes. As EH has said, we're not into this for ego-stroking. If stuff doesn't get a single vote, there's a reason for that (and also an author who doesn't automatically vote for their own tracks, respect )

can i be involved?

Of course, the more the merrier

[rekon]

can I still be in?

Well I always get busy unintentionally is my point. I don't have kids but always have something on between work and uni. Plus I don't drink a lot, or study enough I can do it tho
