Contest 57

[Cassie]

2 months ago, former Espada Shinomori came up with a wonderfully sexy idea. Everyone knows how dreadful the previous music contests are, what if we put a even more dreadful twist on it? How about, we choose some songs, and make the kids guess both the song and who chose it. The idea was an instant hit, as we're all highly egotistical bastards sitting in our comfy chairs thinking of ways to torture people. Well, I had enough fun last night, lets get to business.

Link: http://hosted.filefront.com/stupidman007/
Alternative link: http://www.sendspace.com/file/lzvyqd

There are 18 songs in total. Each C46 member who participated chose 3 songs each. I won't tell you who participated, but with all the stuff going on with inactivity, even we've been hit hard. Anywho, these are all plots to slow down the silly people who've been rocking the past few contests, damaging our egos.

C46 members who participated:

Shin
Cherlye <3
Pylar
Sandal Hat
Elocin
Kohaku <3

Point Distribution:
Song title = 1 point
Song artisit = 1 point
C46 member that chose the song = 1 point

3 total points per song, so the max is 54 points.

Ties will be broken by order of submission.

Deadline is 11:59pm PST, Monday, December 10th.

Anybody from their divisions is allowed to submit, but only 1 submission per division is allowed. Submissions must be delivered via the Contest Submission Section. PM's will not be accepted.

Prizes:
1st - 50,000vbux
2nd - 25,000vbux
3rd - 10,000vbux
All other divisions who participated - 5,000vbux

Ok, hopefully I didn't forget anything, so check out the edits just in case I did forget something and edited it back in.

Go knock yourselves out.

[Sandal Hat]

Py Py gave you mai songs right?

[Cassie]

yup :P

[Miyagi Rikku]

damn you :P

[Kray]

I'm gonna use super seductive powers to get the answers from teh hubby.

[Cleric]

j/k

Can 2nd have it early as our handicap?

[Ciel]

^ No. >:|

Gah..making us frequently check the thread for the contest. That's mean. :<

[Cassie]

The reason I posted the new contest thread is because the contest announcement thread is locked, and I don't have the mod powers to unlock it :P

Also, I didn't announce a specific time because I might forget, which would make it even worse.... just imagine 50 people anticipating the contest, and then I forget about it would be fun, but I'm nice.

Anywho, no need to rush, I'm sure the contest is hard enough for people to take a few days before they can submit with correct answers.

[Kabane]

good.

[rei]

Will be released tomorrow.... unless I get killed sometime between now and when I wake up tomorrow.
Made you look :P


attention whore:rolleye09

[♥ Tess]

doubt any team will find all the answers this time
anyway, good luck :P

They probably are.

[Cassie]

Posted kids, have fun baby.

[WhyteDragon]

Any clues to be had on this one Kohaku?

[Cassie]

no clues, yet. but don't count on it.

if we feel really really really really really really nice, we might consider handing out clues later in the week.

[WhyteDragon]

Just wanted to ask since you failed to mention it either way in your post... lol :)

[Sekeisenbonzakura]

how about a listing of all C46 members, i never met all of them i only like..1..2 (counting you)

[Cleric]

How about just a list of the C46 members?

Can we get a mirror to the file on Megaupload/Sendspace or something? :( Filefront never agrees with my ISP...

My company has filters up... I can get into youtube... but I cant download anything, would have been easy for me that way.

Nope. Not for me.... argh...

Did only the primary staff participate in choosing the songs?

[Cassie]

Did only the primary staff participate in choosing the songs?

there is only one staff. due to other stuff, many other C46 happen to be inactive, hence only 6 participated.

as for who those 6 are, use your own judgement. however, don't be deceived :P

[Cleric]

Thank you captain vague for that excellent advice ^_^ V,,

Throw 2nd a bone seeing as we are one of the bottom 3 in the ladder >_<

I didn't.

[Cassie]

I forgot to mention:

[Blue]

So we're supposed to randomly guess who from C46 chose the song? You guys are stupid. :/

[Lethe]

No, not stupid - just very torturous.

XP

[Cassie]

So we're supposed to randomly guess who from C46 chose the song? You guys are stupid. :/

There's a difference between a random guess and an educated guess. Either way, the song and artist accounts for 2/3 of the total points.

Considering the demographics of C46, narrowing each song down to two C46 members isn't rocket science.

Team work team work team work, there's a reason why you guys have a week to do this.

[Pyramus]

We only have a week!? Damn you guys! I mean, how are we meant to pinpoint these songs to the C46 members, I mean, some of them may both like the same song!

[Cassie]

5 of the 18 songs can be easily pinpointed to a specific member. If you don't get them right, shame on you and you cant complain. If you do get them right, then you're doing just fine.

[Cleric]

Did each of the 6 participating C46 members only pick 3 songs or is it more random . . .

[Cassie]

6 members, 3 songs each.

[Cleric]

Domo ^_^ V,,

That makes it a little bit easier seeing as we can somewhat use process of elimination . . .

[Cassie]

List of participating C46 members posted. Refer to first post.

[Kray]

The time you guys are spending complaining --- is the time the Vaizards are working to get the answers right.

So ya'll, keep complaining, and we'll keep answering.

:cm:

[Undying]

*wastes time complaining*

You keep telling yourself that Kray.

[Alerane]

When its a music contest all some of us can do is complain. XD

[WhyteDragon]

we've been working on it since it was posted... so:p

[Cassie]

When its a music contest all some of us can do is complain. XD

It's not just a music contest. All of the songs have lyrics in them, and matching them to the correct member is more than just random guessing. Just be glad you don't have Z's game music, Shino's instrumentals, nor DB's j-pop to deal with.

[Kray]

*wastes time complaining*

You keep telling yourself that Kray.

Pffffffft :p

Shino's instrumentals.

I'm good at those, cause it's all I listen to >_>
Boooo.

[Miyagi Rikku]

Whyte: lol as if you guys are the only division who have been working on it since it got posted. :babies:

[silverwolf801]

man as soon as i saw this i posted it in my division. we have been relentless with these songs

[Kray]

Don't worry Silver.
You're the only one.

:cm:

[silverwolf801]

thank god. we might win this one then. Naw but alot of the songs are hard to find out. soooo any clues. <_< >_>

[Cassie]

clues are for the weak :P

[silverwolf801]

well I guess we don't need any then. *starts crying*

[Kray]

^ :lol

Just think outside teh box.

[Helikaon]

Even suggesting there is a box has already confined you to the limits of your logic, rather than the depths of your imagination.

[Cassie]

I prefer to think that I'm god and look down into the universe, which contains the box :P

[Mr.Blunt]

Okay, I've correctly guessed all the songs, now to pinpoint.








just kidding, scared ya didn't i?!?

[Kira vi Britannia]

Not really.

We're three song titles away from submitting.

[Mr.Blunt]

Darn, foiled once again.

So it's a race you want eh!?

[Kira vi Britannia]

B-B-B-BRING it ON!!!!!

:cm:


/me is not joking about being 3 songs away from submitting.

[Miyagi Rikku]

/me smacks Mizu with a big paper fan

YOOO!! XD shush >.> shhhhh

[Mr.Blunt]

Damn you Vaizards!

Hmm.. must overcome.. enormous.. odds!!

[Reco]

Meh, just go for second.

[Undying]

I'm considering nuking you all so that we remain alone...

@Kohaku: pffft. I'm the only God around!

[Kenta]

3 songs away from submitting != 3 songs away from completion

up to you guys how to interpret it

[Kray]

Even suggesting there is a box has already confined you to the limits of your logic, rather than the depths of your imagination.

Negative.
If I were to release the way we thought, we wouldn't be potential owners of the pimp cup.
So, in turn, I just state the typical "think outside the box".
Can't give away our ways.

:cm:

[Miyagi Rikku]

/me eats Kenta

roar D: no boasting allowed. XD

[Hits]

We are negative 5 songs from being done. We've just created a blackhole.

[Cassie]

I hope everyone's still working hard.

[theblack_dragon]

this is hard man trust we are trying are best i wonder how everyone else is fairing right now

[Mr.Blunt]

I quit. Screw this contest.

Luls jk.

Only like me and another person in my division are putting some sort of effort into this thing.

And we are stumped as to what those instrumental/jap songs are.

The other songs are done deal.

Then there's the whole guessing deal -_-;;

Hmm.. what is up with me and "deal".. T_T

[doobiesnacks]

we should have a beer pong competition.. see who dominates that stadium :D

eleventh pwnzoritors all!!

[Wacer]

dont be modest 87, we would of failed so hard in this contest without you XD

that flute like song is crazy though, i have no idea how some people are going to come up with it.

and there is the evilness of having to pick the Central members that picked them, evilness i tell you

[Cassie]

and there is the evilness of having to pick the Central members that picked them, evilness i tell you

After you figure out the songs, take a step back, and look at them as a whole and then put together the puzzle.

From my knowledge of the participating C46 members, only about a couple of the songs were "somewhat unexpected" as far as connecting to the members goes. Of course, it's a lot harder to match it the other way around, but all I'm saying is that it's not as hard as it may seem.

It's times like these that separates the contenders and pretenders :P

FIGHTO!!

[Reco]

I don't get how it separates the contenders and pretenders.

It just shows who already has knowledge of the C46 and Japanese songs. Since it's a major pain to figure those out from scratch.

Nobody is expecting perfect submissions here, if you can get half of the 54 total points, you've probably done fairly well.

Sweet, im doing fairly well then! :)

Tell ya what - once I come back around, or if I get some spare time, I'll throw together a nice compilation contest full of nothing but songs in English.

And you'll know they're all from me.

Will that be easier for you?

[Reco]

Do you feel better now for releasing your misdirected anger?

Seriously.

[Shinomori]

Do you feel better now for releasing your misdirected anger?
Seriously.

I didn't see anything there but benevolence and kindness!

All I noted was that you all really didn't like all the "work" and "effort" that go into solving a moderately difficult (for you) contest, so I figured you would appreciate it if I made a simple one for you!

[Helikaon]

Indeed.. shame on you recon.. All he was offering was complete kindness and you threw it back in his face. Shame on you.

[Reco]

If it was specifically for me that doesn't really count for anything then I would rather not do it.

And I'm rather POed about some other things that don't really relate to you, so I guess that comment was out of bounds.

[Rayster]

Well.. don't feel too bad..

Anywho, other C46 members please double check the scores for me please :P

Please, if the Central 46 needs more imagination then why don't you suggest a GOOD contest then instead of just complaining like a whiny kid. :facepalm:

I am sure they are open for suggestion over PM. They are not close-minded people who don't take suggestions at all.

[Nomadic Dragon]

Sure, I have plenty of ideas for contests but I didn't know I was allowed to pm them to the C46. I don't "whine" , I'm just tired of the same damn thing since the last couple contests have all been music or had some music element in them. As you can note, a lot of the captains feel the same way I'm just the only one that voiced it. We are always talking in the captain's convo on how we'd like different contests like they used to be.

So Miyagi STFU

[Miyagi Rikku]

That my dear, you not knowing you can suggest? There is a thread called "Suggestions" thread in the FAQ section that is already proof that the Staff or even Central 46 since most of the C46 are composed of mostly Staff that they take suggestions.

You did not whine? Then what did you do? Speak your mind? Please, you did nothing but complain/whine that the contest is "ghey" So, you should STFU. :)

[Cassie]

We'll leave it at that for now, drop the subject. There'll probably be a future contest asking you guys to make contests anyway. The captain's convo is mostly spam, so the stuff hardly gets relayed.

We try to make contests fun, and doable, while requiring an amount of work. This contest was harder than the past few ones, but it's not exceedingly hard, demonstrated by the Espadas and Vaizards, as they had to search for just as many answers as you had to. To say that a contest is bad is basically taking a stab at the person who made it. Please think before speaking.

Regarding how C46 work, I'm sure there is a lot of discontent about it. I'll do what I can to make it work, but you're all gonna have to bare with it.

[Nomadic Dragon]

Miyagi: Seriously STFU, I was just bring to light the opinion of most captains since you can see the most of them agree with me. I could have said it in a different, screw me, it was 3 am and I was missed of that yet again Vizards/Espada had won. Seriously, I think there is some cheating going on but that is just my opinion, not accusing anyone. As for the suggestions thread you so happily mentioned, I figured that was for stuff related to the entire forum and any thing about contests would me lost in the mess. If they created, say, a C46 suggestion thread I'd be all over it. So Seriously...STFU

[Elocin]

There is going to be another contest coming up that will hopefully be easier than this one. Sit tight and relax.

Blah.

/closes

[Miyagi Rikku]

^ In any case I would STFU cause I CBA to waste my time with you who tells people to use their damn brains but you apparently don't use yours. :3

[Elocin]

yo, break it up

don't make me go smod on your ass D:

[Kabane]

Of course we cheated Nomadic, how else would we have gotten answers no one else had?
