Event id #3046 : Like It's '83 Music Compo 2021
Welcome to the first and maybe not the last edition of Like It's '83 Music Compo!
Main goal is to faithfully recreate the spirit of early SID pieces, composed even before titans like Hubbard, Galway, or Tel did hit the scene. That said, there are no rigid limits regarding technical aspect whatsoever - it's up to contestants to bring good old times back and up to audience to judge how successful their attempts were. So bring the old shit on! <3
Compo rules:
1. No covers and remixes allowed. Some little hints or pastiches to increase fun factor are allowed, on the other hand.
2. No upper limit for playtime - if you feel up to 20 minutes suite - go for it!
3. No limit of tunes per author but each composition has to be at least 2 minutes long.
4. Any tool of your choice - it might be custom routine or any routine used back in the days (David Dunn or Russell Lieblich for example if they provided any tools online). Rip routines if you need to. Don't rip music data, though! :D Procedurally generated music is also allowed but it has to produce at least 2 minutes of unique and reasonable content. Interpret 'reasonable' as you wish :D
5. Votes will be counted on basis of CSDB voting system but the result is going to rely on my custom algorithm (squared amount of votes which already proved reliable before).
6. No money prizes included - you do it for fun and glory!
Any additional rules will be added on the fly. Good luck and have fun! <3 |

Just downloaded the voting pack - i am so happy i did, because there are so many great tunes i would have missed, otherwise. Obviously i really dig the SID-minimalism era. Instantly thought like 'wow this should be an album'... like on vinyl or casette or something. Sorry i didn't put more effort into my entries - but not sorry i took the chance to being part of this compo. It ranks very high among the best compo ideas so far, imho. ❤️ |

Voting sheet might be better options here (even if Google Sheets work as they work) :) |

We don't take too kindly to Excess table types 'round here... ;P
But your approach is fine.
Only thing that would reduce confusion even better would be that table and the image should be sorted the same entry-wise. |

I haven't renamed zipped files at all to sort them, sorry :/ |

Last day to vote for '83 entries!
Results will be announced after midnight. I rely on votes from CSDb but I calculate results with custom formula, used in 25Hz compo and Raistlin's sprite compo (no arbitrary weights but squared amount of votes instead). |
