Ormion Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 Ladies and gentlemen the judgment day is upon us!The voting for the 10 winner tracks has officially begun! If you want to participate please read the following FAQ:Q: How long will the voting period last?A: 42 days. Starting right now and ending 31st December 2015 23:59:59 GMT. At midnight we will lock the thread and no more votes will be allowed.Q: How to vote?A: Follow this link and listen to all the tracks in the group. When you have a definite top 10 post the results directly in this thread.Q: Who can vote?A: Every Psynews member. If you're not a member feel free to register.Q: Is there a specific way to write the results?A: Yes, your top 10 should follow this specific format:Votes:1: Artist - Title2: Artist - Title3: Artist - Title4: Artist - Title5: Artist - Title6: Artist - Title7: Artist - Title8: Artist - Title9: Artist - Title10: Artist - Title The votes will be counted automatically by Rotwang's software so you need to follow the exact formatting.The 1st track will get 10 points. The 2nd 9 points, the 3rd 8 points etc. So order does matter! You favourite track should be no 1.You can vote for fewer than 10 tracks as well.Also you should not quote other people's votes when replying.Q: If I change my mind can I edit my votes?A: Yes, you can edit your votes as many times as you like until the deadline. Just make sure to edit your old post instead of creating a new one. Q: Can artists who participate in the contest vote for their tracks?A: Yes, they can. We feel that prohibit this would be unfair for people who genuinely believe that their tracks are worth voting. Plus since most artists have different artist name and psynews nickname it would be impossible to track down who is who.Q: Anything else?A: Yes. Please keep it fair by following these rules:1. Listen to all the tracks before voting. The voting period is lengthy to listen to each track many times, so please take your time.2. Do not vote based on popularity or friendships. It' s unfair for both popular and unknown artists. Vote for the music.3. Do not create duplicate accounts to vote multiple times.That is all. If you have any question feel free to ask.Happy voting!Link for the contest announcement 1
Ormion Posted November 13, 2015 Author Posted November 13, 2015 Latest update: Thanks to Paul Eye suggestion we made sure that all tracks are unreleased. After some search we spotted a couple of tracks that don't follow this rule. The artists have been informed and their tracks have been removed. However one of the artists Styr0x has not replied back. After carefully listening to both the soundcloud track and the one on bandcamp it appears that it's the exact same track with a slightly longer outro. Therefore the track has been removed. If you're aware of any other tracks that have been officially released, but we missed them please inform us. Rules are rules people! In total there are 41 tracks to vote for.
Anu Katariina Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 What a treat to sink in with all these! Thank you again for this contest Psynews

profetia Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Must say. One hell of a contest, a lot of great tracks. Only about half way through listening to all of them but already found some really neat stuff. 3
desysko Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Awesome to see some names that I'm not familiar with. Can't wait to listen to all the tracks. Deciding is going to be tough.
Anu Katariina Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Must say. One hell of a contest, a lot of great tracks. Only about half way through listening to all of them but already found some really neat stuff. Yeah!

Paul Eye Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 You can vote for fewer than 10 tracks as well. How fair is that if people just come to vote for their one favourite artist? If you ask me, voting and listening should take at least some effort. And please, remove the colour tags from the text (well, the red can stay). I'm on the deviant theme (and probably some others too) and can't see most of the text as it blends into the background colour.

Cybernetika Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 How fair is that if people just come to vote for their one favourite artist? If you ask me, voting and listening should take at least some effort. I agree about this. There is enough good stuff that even picking the best 10 among them is hard enough. Also, my honest vote could probably look like I'm trying to help my friends in this contest. I can assure in advance that I will try my best to give a vote reflecting my personal taste in music alone.
Paul Eye Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 And perhaps put a link to this thread in the Soundcloud group description

I'm on the deviant theme (and probably some others too) and can't see most of the text as it blends into the background colour. What if someone likes only 7 tracks and he thinks the rest are equally bad? We can't force people to vote for tracks they dislike. As for the colours there's only black and red so I don't know what you mean. And perhaps put a link to this thread in the Soundcloud group description Will do.
Paul Eye Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 As for the colours there's only black and red so I don't know what you mean. Hmm, maybe the Deviant theme is buggy because to me it looks like this: Imgur link.
Paul Eye Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Will do. Hmm...remove the last #entry part of the link so that it actually goes to the first post and not to my post where I suggested to include the link

Lightforce Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 (edited) I had to make a forced choice, but honestly the Cybernetika's and Xenofish's tracks transcend to the same pinnacle. Seriously, these guys come straight from another dimension. Absolutely untouchable.

Paul Eye Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 I'd give Cybernetika 2 votes if I could, that track is fucking EPIC. 2
Ormion Posted November 15, 2015 Author Posted November 15, 2015 Is anyone else having trouble playing the Jaraluca track? It keeps loading, but never plays.
Richpa Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Is anyone else having trouble playing the Jaraluca track? It keeps loading, but never plays. Worked for me today. Probably Soundcloud is bugging again.
Rotwang Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 And please, remove the colour tags from the text (well, the red can stay). I'm on the deviant theme (and probably some others too) and can't see most of the text as it blends into the background colour. Fixed. Also, will everyone please put a line containing the word "votes" at the start of their votes.
Paul Eye Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 Also, will everyone please put a line containing the word "votes" at the start of their votes. Done. And does it matter that some people have leading zeroes and the track titles as links?
Rotwang Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 And does it matter that some people have leading zeroes and the track titles as links? It doesn't, but thanks for checking.
