Contest 55 - TV Themes

[Cassie]

The votes from the 3 winning divisions from contest 54 resulted in the topic for contest 55, which is "television".

I have compiled the TV themes for 30 TV shows, and have put them onto one video file. The themes themselves is only the music, I can't give you the video theme because it would be too easy. However, it is a video file after all, so I added videos/pictures/words onto each theme to make things more interesting.

Your job is to give me the name of the show corresponding to each theme. They're already numbered for you on the video, so just follow that.

Each division is given 1 hint. The division must post a request in the contest 56 hint request thread, stating which theme they are requesting a hint for. However, once a theme is requested by a division, no other divisions may request hints for that theme. It will be on a first come first serve basis. Anyone from a division is allowed to request the hint. Also, once a hint is requested on the request thread, you are not allowed to change it. That includes editing or deleting a post. Attempts to do so will result in a disqualification for your division. I will PM the hint to the person who posted the request within 24 hours of the post.

The deadline for answer submissions is Friday, November 23rd, at 11:59pm PST. Which is approximately 7 days, 9hours, 10minutes from this post, so you do the math. The answers are to be submitted to me via PM. Do not post in the contest submission forums. Only submissions in my PM will be accepted. Anybody from their divisions is allowed to submit the answers for their divisions. However, I will only allow 1 submission from each division. Whatever answers that you submitted will be final, and no changes can be made to it.

The prizes will be as follows:
1st place - 50,000 vbux
2nd place - 25,000 vbux
3rd place - 5,000 vbux
The ladder will start fresh with this contest, and scoring for the ladder can be found in the ladder thread in BPHQ.

In the event of a tie, the tiebreaker will be determined by the time in which the answers were submitted. The divisions that submitted earlier in the tie will be given the higher position as to the divisions that submitted later.

So, without further ado, here is the link to the video:

Good luck and have fun.
If you have any questions/concerns you can either post it here or PM me about it.

PS. this post is subject to edits for things that I may have forgotten.

Edit: there's a blunder in the ordering of the themes on the video. Please follow the numbering system on the video

[Reco]

So since number 15 is shown before 14 we would still use the number 14 for the one shown after number 15?

[Cassie]

So since number 15 is shown before 14 we would still use the number 14 for the one shown after number 15?

Yea, use the number given on the video please.

[Reco]

Another question. Is there a price for the one hint?

[Miyagi Rikku]

No, Each division gets 1 free hint.

[Cassie]

There is no price for the hint, except it is given out on a first come first serve basis, and you only get 1.

BTW, I'm currently splitting the video file into 3 parts and I'm going to post them on youtube for those of you who are having problems with filefront.

[Ushio Amamiya]

This is a nice contest. I like it. :lol

[Midare]

Ettou... I'm having some problems to download the video or to see it but meh, maybe is my bad internet connection, I'll keep trying :p

[kensei]

I gotta say props to you, i haven't heard some of these themes for a long time xDD

[Cassie]

I added youtube links for those of you having problems with filefront.

[Midare]

arigatou gozaimazu Kohaku ^_^

[Insight]

nice contest man although i'm amazed how high quality it is compared to some of the others. lol

[Cleric]

I gotta say props to you, i haven't heard some of these themes for a long time xDD
Indeed . . . some of those must have been a ***** to dig up . . . especially the obscure ones ^_^

[FullMetal Rebel]

[Kabane]

[Nowitzki]

[WhyteDragon]

So if everyone has submitted ... why not close the contest and get the results in?
That is if everyone has done that .. yet.

[Kabane]

[Miyagi Rikku]

So if everyone has submitted ... why not close the contest and get the results in?
That is if everyone has done that .. yet.


cause obviously, not everyone has submitted.....doh?

[Kichi_Sama]

Hey lay off the sniping folks! There's nothing any of us can do till Kohaku puts the results up so how about we all just sit and wait?? That means Gotei - heckles down, VEQ - likewise.

Yeah ? We're in this for our divisions, not to rip chunks off each other!

[Cassie]

you guys are gonna love it once I put the results up. still waiting on a few divisions tho.

*stares at megaboast*

[Shinomori]

this contest was cake.

i got 26/30 without looking up anything.

I was around the same thing, something like 24 on the first run-through.

'Course, I'm not in a division. :)

[MooL]

Horray for Television!

FIRST DIVISION GONNA ROCK THIS SHIOT.

[Cassie]

I didn't expect you guys to know so much about TV. But hey, easier means more caring :P

[Shinomori]

To hell with "more caring", I want a contest where 8/40 wins it. :)

[rei]

the humble shall be exalted :P

[Kichi_Sama]

*kicks back and waits - quietly confident*

[analog]

We got 2/30... no joke.

[Nightcrawler]

Horray for Television!

[Reco]

If there is two possible answers will you count ether one?

[Ushio Amamiya]

There aren't any two possibilites. XD

[Reco]

<.< Yes, there is. It depends which country's TV you go off of.

[Nightcrawler]

here is a hint, go off the american version.

[Cassie]

I'll count either as long as the theme to it matches the one in the contest.

[doobiesnacks]

tv cripples the minds of our young ones *all deep n sheit*

[Donut]

Hello. Donut's here to boast, even though he didn't really do anything due to lack of US TV.

We'll win, you all suck, etc.

This post is not brought to you by the Vaizards

[Cassie]

If we had agreed on an answer for number 1, we would have gotten second, though first was out of our reach. The Vaizards were too fast for us.. this time..

[Reco]

Huh? We put Dancing with the Stars first then we switched it. So it would have been right anyway.

[Jin]

Doesn't matter, we switched it which was the problem in our time. It took the Vaizard's 43 minutes to complete the contest.. ridiculous..

[Reco]

That was what I said the first time.

[Miyagi Rikku]

:P We started right away once the contest got posted, there were 5 vaizards or more
at that time that we're online and I did not logged off the whole time I was doing the
contest.

Correction it is not 43mins.

11-16-2007, 02:47 PM - Contest Started / Got posted

11-16-2007 Contest 55: Vaizard
06:28 PM Miyagi Rikku - Time we submitted.

[Jin]

3 hours and 41 minutes. Still ridiculous. You were lucky this time, though... don't think I forgot about my revenge act towards you.. oh yeah, I still remember.

[silverwolf801]

Ok OK I hate the vaizards. BUMMMSSS

I definetly hate 7th. YOu evil bums

and 3rd you are now on my hate list.

hm anyway congrats to the fast bums who took our victory.

[Cassie]

actually, Espada submitted first.

[Miyagi Rikku]

How is it ridiculous? :P One member of mine guessed almost 20 answers in an instant
without counting mine of course. :P It is all team work and fast and steady work flow.

[Jin]

It's not ridiculous, per se. I guessed around 20 on my own. You managed to work on it before us... bastards. Next time, you're going down. =_=

[Ciel]

\o/

Third! Well, we did our best.

[Kabane]

um... which one did we get wrong?

My PM says the same answers. Unless you want to really consider tiny details like the difference between "arthur and friends" and "arthur"

[Kira vi Britannia]

Actually, Miyagi, we're going by U.S. Eastern Time

So....

[Cassie]

@Ryuuken: You guys put NBA for #11, NBC had to be attached somewhere for me to give credit on that one. In fact, the hint given for that one was "NBA"

Contest 57 will have to wait till early next week. Shino's got that one covered.

[RenRen]

Congratulations to the winners :Domo

Meh.. so #1 can have two answers but putting just 'NBA' is not acceptable. Alright. Congrats to all the winners.

[Cassie]

Meh.. so #1 can have two answers but putting just 'NBA' is not acceptable. Alright. Congrats to all the winners.

I specifically checked the OP theme to Strictly Come Dancing, and it was the exact same thing as Dancing With the Stars. NBA, on the other hand, is not specific enough. An analogy would be putting CSI, but not CSI Miami.

[Miyagi Rikku]

Good job to everyone. :3 It is good to see that everyone participated.

[Helikaon]

@Kohaku: I think thats pretty stupid. But ok :)

[Cassie]

Anyone who's watched half a NBA game on NBC would know that the tune is catchy and awesome. Anyone who's watched half a NBA game elsewhere would know that their themes aren't the same.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UooitEU6AtE

anywho, everyone else who got that one right put NBA on NBC.

[Elocin]

Lol.

Let's drop this.

lol @ people ALWAYS wanting to beat espada, it was the vaizard that id continuously better over the last few contests and yet the espadas still get the respect :P

[Reco]

I think people want to beat both the Vizard and the Espada. It just happens that the Espada were beat first.

[Lethe]

Oh come now, you guys - no need to keep picking on the Espada (or anybody else for that matter).

Remember that this is just a battle and there is still a pretty big war that has yet to be won.

:babies:

Good luck to everybody~

I find your lack of research...disturbing.

[Kabane]

It's fairly even right now, but back in the old days, no one could stop us.

We're just dealing with residual heat.


Also: :< at blaming me.

[Nightcrawler]

@static, respect/hate same shizz :P

@shino, OK OK the last two contests then lol.

either way, it just seems to me that the espada get the stigma of 1337ness moar than quincies and vaizards, when V and Q are quite capable fo beating them DX.

[Shinomori]

It's because they've been around longer, and have a track record of awesome.

They existed while you were still suckin' on yo momma's tittay.
