Event id #2636 : Crack Intro Music Competition 2017
After the geat success in 2013, the time has come for another Crack Intro Music Competition!
Several people have asked for it and finally it happens.
This time I have a skilled co-organizer with Jammer.
Competition runs from September 29, 2017, until October 29, 2017. So you have a full month to deliver your creations.
Please use this thread for questions, discussion and everything else concerning this competition.
THE RULES (same as in 2013, worked very well):
- max. playtime 1:00 min. (PAL playing speed), then repeat or fade.
- max. size: $1000 bytes (preferably located in memory at $1000-$2000)
- single speed only
- no SID model preference (should sound good on all SID models)
- must be handed in as executable format .sid or .prg (might be embedded in .t64 or .d64)
- no graphics or even intro-like presentation is allowed to be included.
- Productions using the music might be released after the voting deadline. The voting should be focused on the music itself.
- the participating musics may not have been released or used in a public production before.
- multiple entries per musician allowed.
Deadline for entry submission is October 29, 2017 at 23:59:59 (11:59:59 pm).
Voting closes one week later at November 6, 2017 at 23:59:59 (11:59:59 pm).
Voting platform is CSDb (with all disadvantages it may have), therefore entries have to be posted here.
Entries will be ranked by weighted average of CSDb votes. Entries with the same weighted average are ranked by their percentages of 10s, 9s, etc.
No prices to win, just the fame. May the best creation win! |

Ok, if you guys say so... I'd probably regret throwing it out sooner or later :) |

damn after so much great music you can't blame the notoriously lazy musicians... THEY can kick coders and crackers asses like "We delivered. Now make new intro and btw go do some decent crack ffs" :D |

Jammer, put your tune back in. The rules has been adjusted before (thanks btw) and secondly, I would personally be flattered if people found my crack tunes good enough for their intro's - so enjoy the fame my friend.
About 100 votes or more. I have a suggestion:
1) a PUBLIC vote system, but votes shouldn't be shown at all until the compo was over.
2) all entries without names...
3) people who wants to vote could sign up for being part of the commitie... (but this would also force them to give every single tune a vote from 1-10 - if not voted on, it would automatically become 9 or something... :-) )
So.. do I have to code that website myself to get that system? |

Imho redundant bureaucracy and complication for such a simple compo but it's cool you want to devote your precious time :P I sense it would gather very few volunteers, as any kind of external signup is unecessary time and effort for lazy bastards :D Didi handled voting manly in 2013, still feel free to hit him in that case ;) |

Agreed, this platform is not perfect, some say it's just a database. Despite that, it gathers more votes than other vote-systems that have been tried. Best of the bad. |

IMO it wouldn't matter if we get more votes in total, let's say at least 100 what should be possible. Downvotes wouldn't have that big impact and the result will be more realistic and fair.
You should also consider not allowing any votes with fake accounts or from people that never ever contributed something to the 64 scene.
Also ensure that a single person is doing votes for all entries and not only to a few ones for using and accepting it for the final calculation. |
