Quoting CreaMDWhat I really miss on c64 are epic heroic theme tunes/covers. Like for example avengers theme, pirates of carribean, how to train of dragon, kung fu panda 3 Kai's theme Pacific Rim theme and such. Simply epic/heroic motives that give you goosebumps when they start playing in the right moment. E.g. avengers worked quite well with that.
That's the worst music of them all /o\ With exceptions ;) |

Quoting JammerQuoting Mr.AmmoSo in essence you'll be cherry picking the scores to your own liking.
Far from it - redundant drama imho :) CreamD was quite specific that he trims only contestants' votes if any. I find it fair but not perfect - musicians have friends/groupies after all ;) I leave it up to org whatever comes :) What you (and many others) don't seem to see here (I didn't notice it up until now either) is that CreamD is a moderator. He mentioned removing contestants from the votes. Meaning, he will be using his moderator privileges for other things than moderation of forum posts, comments and admin stuff. He suggested earlier on about removing votes he thinks would be inappropriate. He even told Wacek not to worry for his entry being at the bottom since he would look into it himself. Knowing that CreamD, as a moderator, can see how people vote influences voting behaviour by the voters because of likely repercussions (removing your vote). That's why anonymous voting is mandatory for any event and moderators shouldn't be allowed to view the votes of users.
Abusing moderator privileges should be a big NO NO on CSDb. It's a sliding scale if it is allowed to happen. It damages trust in our beloved moderators while most of them do their utmost investing in trust with the end user and keeping this site going.
Seriously, someone should revoke CreamD's moderator privileges if he's actually going through with using his moderator privileges to look up how people voted in order to remove the votes of the contestants and the voters he deems to be 'friends' or 'foes' of the contestant. |

Removing votes means not counting them when calculating results. I'm going to abuse my moderator right to collect votes and calculate results in excel sheet.
I sense sarcasm in your second paragraph.
Sadly, there is no such tool available. (Look. I speak sarcasm too.)
-------
In PM I sent you I have politely asked you to not to remove your votes and rather vote for the rest of the tunes. It's because I intended to use all of your votes.
And now you answer this way. You are mean. But I forgive you.
I also forgive Krill for his passive aggressive comments. You probably debated me? over IRC or somehting? I don't know. I'm just guessing. It's okay. I love you guys. I mean, seriously. I love you. :-p
have a nice evening,

I love this kind of music for it's potential to create strong emotional reaction. ;-) But yeah, musicians who make you cry or shiver are evil! ;-) |

Just make voting mandatory for all CSDb accounts not participating. No votes -> account locked. That will surely stop all drama. |

Hm. I don't get the voting concept. I just made sure that I voted on all entries except my own - if CSDb votes are even counted (?) ... I'd say: let your kids decide ;-)
Anyway: Was really nice too have so much good creative outcome in this "fun compo" :-) |

Spider, you are right. I will Just check for self votes (I don't expect any anyway ;-) There are too few votes (about 20-30) per entry and if I removed everyone who participated that would probably generate completely different results. Also I didn't find any anomalies anywehre. So results wont differ much from the CSDB ratings it seems. ;-)
And, thank you. |
