Personally I'm totally fine with CSDb votes. But you have to consider that different 'amount' of voters maybe a problem to get somehow 'objective' results for the compo. That 'average vote' algo is kinda tricky :-)

You can always ask CreamD for help with voting. We will have results in November next year.

Hi All,

Compo is getting better and better. Plenty of good tunes out there, no doubts.

Thanks to Joe, I've extended my compo entry by one extra minute, so it last now for more than 4 minutes.

I hope you gonna enjoy it. There is SID to be downloaded.

Once again, thanks for this opportunity Kristian and Ole!

And even that wouldn't break my record. ;-)

edit: checked rambo revisited, hell.. it seems like it would! Without much effort on delaying. ;-)

Quote: You mean, only happy dance tunes accepted? ;-)) Naah. Anyway I was thinking about making it even more anonymous than before. Just having C64 recordings (MP3) during compo and voting phase, so noone will be able to guess the author from the player/editor used. Yes, most of the musicians have distinctive style, but this way it would be also easier for people to check the tunes anytime. E.g. listen to them in train.. o Ipod.. and Iphones.. and androids..

"...Naah. Anyway I was thinking about making it even more anonymous than before. Just having C64 recordings (MP3) during compo and voting phase..."

I say YES do it, all tunes in the C64.sk The SID Compo with .mp3 recordings, easy to do with Sidplay2/w maybe on Linux too? But it should be plain C64 SID recordings as mp3 and not a mp3 mastered SID tune with a PC, not that someone put all kind of filters to the SID tune. xD

Maybe you need to switch of the auto correct on your Android. I also hate that function. I have "normal" keyboard now, I dont need T9. :)

I wouldn't use CSDB's voting system in a month of sundays because:

a) it's weighted averaging system admittedly doesn't work properly unless MANY votes are cast.

b) its blatantly open to "name voting"

c) you are ignoring a larger c64 audience out there because they are not allowed to become members on here because they aren't "sceners" and therefore apparently don't count and therefore can't vote.

indeed. just like any other statistical system gives only vague results if the number of samples is low. that is how you make 2nd place in a democompo when atleast 3 other demos deserved better =)
