However, SPfreaks members can participate in this thread by uploading any contributions they may have, as they are not allowed to officially participate in the competition.

Thanks and have fun!

[SPfreaks]

You may submit up to 3 times. Remember, each entry has to contain all the elements, so if you’re up for it, we’ll take em!

There has been some confusion over the word badges. You can design little metal pin badges, or iron on cloth badges, and also backstage passes. Any combination will work. 3 of one kind, 1 of each, it’s up to you.

Also, the judging criteria will be kept private, but will be revealed at the time of judgement. We can tell you the judges will be 4 members of SPfreaks.com, and could potentially include more later as the contest progresses.

Any more questions, keep them coming!

[SPfreaks]

My link’s for the Promo tracks, identical in sound to the official releases… I should have stated that. [/quote:3td1prqz]
Still official material, which is not allowed. Please don’t do it again on this public boards.

Your latest links have been removed, Dazey.

[SPfreaks]

SPfreaks will no longer be observing TFGT (The Friday Goodie Topic) at Dazey’s request.

Let’s all thank Dazey for continuing to stick around our forum and chip in with his unique style.

Best wishes.

[SPfreaks]

Please stop discussing this. It only fans the flames. What’s done is done, now it’s over. Will it happen again? Yes. We will deal with issues as they arise, but please keep the panicking or discussion to a minimum – that is what the ultimate goal is.

Keep your cool, rock on.

[SPfreaks]

[00:09] [Jimmy] Where is your sense of humour
[00:09] [Jimmy] It wasn’t beer anyway, it was orange juice
[00:09] hmmm…
[00:09] don’t think so
[00:10] that bar guy almost refused to serve you any longer
[00:10] [Jimmy] Yeah, you know why?
[00:10] [Jimmy] He wouldn’t believe me that I could make his sad horse laugh again
[00:10] huh?
[00:11] what is this about?
[00:11] [Jimmy] Didn’t you notice that sad horse on the end of the bar?
[00:11] yeah…
[00:11] [Jimmy] I made it laugh again
[00:11] when we left it was sad again
[00:11] [Jimmy] Sure, the guy asked me
[00:11] i’m not getting the point here jimmy
[00:12] really
[00:12] [Jimmy] OK let me explain
[00:12] please
[00:13] [Jimmy] The guy was fed up with that horse being sad
[00:13] [Jimmy] I said let me help you
[00:13] [Jimmy] Went to the horse and whispered something in his ear
[00:13] [Jimmy] So it went crazy with laughter
[00:13] [Jimmy] After about an hour the bar guy was fed up with that horse again being so noisy
[00:14] [Jimmy] So I went there again, and it shut up immediately
[00:14] right… what did you do?
[00:14] [Jimmy] First time I told him \"my little member is twice as long as yours\"
[00:14] [Jimmy] Second time I showed it
[00:14] ah ok

We got some chat user questions. Here are a few tips on using the chatroom.

1. PM a friend on here and set a date and time you want to chat. As the chatroom is not that crowded in the beginning, this is the best way to avoid waiting like silly. We hope the chatroom will be more crowded after a while.

2. As it is a public chatroom, you can also invite non-members. They don’t need to fill in a password, nor do they need to register on the Forum. They can log on with only a self-chosen nick, and leave the password field blank.

3. Ask any technical or user questions in the special Support section of this Forum. This is for SPfreaks members only of course. Public members need to register on the Forum first. RedWolf will try to answer your questions.

4. When 1 way of using the chatroom doesn’t work, try another way. Some helpful tips are on the homepage of the room.

5. Questions, see 3.

Have fun!

[SPfreaks]

Everything works fine on our side Shannen.

After you typed your nick and password (password is not necessary) then the applet takes a while sometimes to load. This is nothing to be worried about. After a few seconds you will see this screen and you can start chatting.

[SPfreaks]

We managed to capture a little chat from our logs.

[SPfreaks]

Hurray! The last set of points are in from Asia! Read, shiver and weep or cheer people, here we go. These are the final results of the contest. Be prepared for a surprise! The top 3 has changed again!

00 points – Superlordspamulon (Cupid De Locke)
18 points – Superlordspamulon (Soma)
00 points – Cool As Ice Cream (Bleed)
00 points – Cool As Ice Cream (Moleasskiss)
00 points – Arthur (Marquis In Spades)
00 points – manillascissor (Bodies)
00 points – Arthur (Pug)
06 points – toad32r (Porcelina Of The Vast Oceans)
00 points – Chrysantheme (Bugg Superstar)
12 points – toad32r (Geek U.S.A.)
00 points – Arthur (Slunk)
18 points – Pipoka (Set The Ray To Jerry)
00 points – Superlordspamulon (Real Love)
04 points – Pipoka (The Sacred And Profane)
20 points – martygoeswhee (Bury Me)
13 points – Superlordspamulon (For Martha)
05 points – Superlordspamulon (Glass And The Ghost Children)
00 points – Fez (By Starlight)

As can be seen by these results, the following order can be made.

1. martygoeswhee (Bury Me) with 20 points
2. Pipoka (Set The Ray To Jerry) / Superlordspamulon (Soma), both with 18 points
3. Superlordspamulon (For Martha) with 13 points

After all it was a close call between Bury Me, Set The Ray To Jerry and Soma, but martygoeswhee stood strong on 1 and was not prepared to move, Pipoka almost caused a contest revolution and Superlordspamulon… came back with For Martha, pushing toad32r with his beautiful Geek U.S.A. just out of the top 3. Exciting finish this is! Wow!

Let me summarize some of the judges’ remarks in my own words.

-martygoeswhee manages to create some good artwork together with a pretty nice song combination. This single should have been done in the old days!
-The artwork of Pipoka – Set the ray is maybe not the best. But the single has an extremely daring combination of tracks from all eras. That should be rewarded.
-The artwork of Soma reminds me of Rocket, but you can think of worse inspirations I guess. He explains his songs pretty detailed, Superlordspamulon could have been Billy’s Agent at the record company.

martygoeswhee is the winner of the contest after all, with his entry called Bury Me. Congratulations martygoeswhee! We will PM you soon to ask for some details. All other people in this contest, THANK YOU and it was fun to look at all that artwork! For now, see you next time!

SPFreaks

[SPfreaks]

Superlordspamulon is right Fez, you would definately have scored points with your entry. Rules are rules however. More luck next time Fez, make sure you read the instructions properly!

I’m ashamed to announce that because of the timezones 1 of the judges will not be in time with the points. However, I’m pretty sure they will be in during Saturday the 19th. Sorry for the inconvenience!

However, don’t you all just LOVE the suspense?

Keep you posted.

[SPfreaks]

Another judge just send in the points. After adding these points to the previous results, we can now give you the following scheme. The order in the top 3 has drastically changed, but please remember, these are still not the final results!

00 points – Superlordspamulon (Cupid De Locke)
13 points – Superlordspamulon (Soma)
00 points – Cool As Ice Cream (Bleed)
00 points – Cool As Ice Cream (Moleasskiss)
00 points – Arthur (Marquis In Spades)
00 points – manillascissor (Bodies)
00 points – Arthur (Pug)
04 points – toad32r (Porcelina Of The Vast Oceans)
00 points – Chrysantheme (Bugg Superstar)
12 points – toad32r (Geek U.S.A.)
00 points – Arthur (Slunk)
12 points – Pipoka (Set The Ray To Jerry)
00 points – Superlordspamulon (Real Love)
04 points – Pipoka (The Sacred And Profane)
16 points – martygoeswhee (Bury Me)
07 points – Superlordspamulon (For Martha)
04 points – Superlordspamulon (Glass And The Ghost Children)
00 points – Fez (By Starlight)

As can be seen by these still non-final (!) results, the following order can be made.

1. martygoeswhee (Bury Me)
2. Superlordspamulon (Soma)
3. toad32r (Geek U.S.A.) / Pipoka (Set The Ray To Jerry)

martygoeswhee is the new number 1 for the moment, Superlordspamulon still going strong, and Pipoka entering the top 3… to blow everybody away in the end and run away with the prize? Who knows!

We hope to announce the winner soon now… Stay tuned!

[SPfreaks]

The results of 2 judges are in, 2 more to follow. Sorry for the delay, guys.

Firstly, the entries of manillascissor, Arthur and Cool As Ice Cream are not taken into consideration. They are webmasters of SPfreaks and are not allowed to compete in this contest. However, a big THANK YOU to them for their artful contributions!

Secondly, Superlord – Real Love and Fez – By Starlight are disqualified as Real Love contains a b-side and By Starlight contains a live track. This is not allowed, as stated in the contest rules. All other entries have been judged according the following sections:

-Artwork (how is the overall quality of the artwork for the single)
-Song selection (how do the songs of the single fit together)
-Explanation (how detailed and well-thought is the explanation given)
-Enjoyment (what is the overall enjoyment of the single)

In each of these 4 sections only 3 entries should be judged in the following way.

-1 point to 1 entry for \"Honorable Mention\"
-2 points to another entry as \"Runner Up\"
-3 points to a third entry for \"Best!\"

The entry with most points in the end wins. This leads to the following non-final (!) schedule at the moment.

00 points – Superlordspamulon (Cupid De Locke)
09 points – Superlordspamulon (Soma)
00 points – Cool As Ice Cream (Bleed)
00 points – Cool As Ice Cream (Moleasskiss)
00 points – Arthur (Marquis In Spades)
00 points – manillascissor (Bodies)
00 points – Arthur (Pug)
04 points – toad32r (Porcelina Of The Vast Oceans)
00 points – Chrysantheme (Bugg Superstar)
10 points – toad32r (Geek U.S.A.)
00 points – Arthur (Slunk)
05 points – Pipoka (Set The Ray To Jerry)
00 points – Superlordspamulon (Real Love)
02 points – Pipoka (The Sacred And Profane)
07 points – martygoeswhee (Bury Me)
07 points – Superlordspamulon (For Martha)
04 points – Superlordspamulon (Glass And The Ghost Children)
00 points – Fez (By Starlight)

As can be seen by these non-final (!) results, the following order can be made.

1. toad32r (Geek U.S.A.)
2. Superlordspamulon (Soma)
3. martygoeswhee (Bury Me) / Superlordspamulon (For Martha)

When the other 2 judges have send in their points, we will give you a new schedule and order, and eventually announce the winner. Also, this thread has been unlocked for your convenience. You can leave your comments again!

Again, sorry for the delay. There was some worldwide discussion between the American, Asian and European judges about how to give proper points…

[SPfreaks]

A big thank you to all who participated. We have a small community here, but it’s nice to see so many people participating.

This competition has now officially ended. The judges will review, and submit the results by Friday, January 18th. Please stay tuned to find out how the winners (maybe you) did!

Thanks again!!!!
