Will_ Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Yeah there are a couple (bass one mainly) that I feel bad about not voting for, even though I don't think they're the very best. But yeah, too late in the competition, we'll just roll with it, no biggie Waitwaitwait, we're only halfway, if we changed it to multiple it'd be just like last time?

Bs Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Probably not worth doing for this contest as it's significantly different from the current system but if this takes place again in the future you could always have it so each person nominates their first, second and third favourite tracks. The favourite would be given 3 points, the second gets 2 points and the third gets 1 point. This way people can still acknowledge multiple songs that they've particularly liked whilst still committing to an overall favourite and could also make it a closer competition. Sort of similar to the Eurovision format but without the sequins and electric violins. The only difficulty compared to the current system is that somebody would have to go through the thread and keep track of all the votes as the polling function doesn't support this kind of voting (so far as I know).

Dominic. Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Haha, I accidentally got this rather cool sound at one part of my cover Recording stuff is going quite well today, only needed one straight take. Might do some other songs for shits and giggles if I have time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord MFC Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Mine went awfully, took like 3 takes and the mic stand kept slipping down so at one point I'm holding it up with my foot And of course the singstar mic didn't quite capture what I was hearing in the room, but oh well. I was going for something like the early 2006 live tone, fuzz blended with distortion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is definitely the one I'm least proud of so far but to be fair I don't like this song nearly as much as the other two I've done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
