I'm with C∆m§¥. This will have the added bonus of making things easier to navigate, also

yeah the bad news is that I pretty much gave up on the synctube logs. I have terrible luck with them apparently. :\NavyBrony wrote:Is it still in the works to have a downloadable excerpt of the chats? I remember somebody mentioning that before.

I think that was one of Balloon Party's problems, being that the Quality bar was set so high, too many entries had to get cut, and when something showed up on the album that was less than stellar, people complained. I don't wanna see that mess happen again.

Can we go by 'how many ponies said "awesome" in the IRC chat'?![]()
I gotta get what love I can!

1. Use the same judging concept as BP (anonymous, nobody knows who the artist is, etc.)
2. Tally up the 50 leading songs in the vote.
3. Go through the 50 leading songs to ensure artists aren't getting more than 1 entry.
*Regarding collabs: If a collab features an artist that has a song in the top 50, a vote shall be commenced to determine whether the collab will be featured, or the artist's own submission, aka: none of this, "Track 1: Blah - DizGood, Track 2: DizGood (Alfa Remix), Track 3: Blah and Alfa - We're Awesome."*
4. After scrubbing the top 50, if slots open up due to #3 above, then the next runner ups shall take those spots.

NavyBrony wrote:How are you asking for help? If you were posting in this thread that you needed help, it likely got lost among all the questions about the RW.
If you posted a WiP in the music section, you've gotta keep bumping it asking for help, because lots of people are making songs and it only takes 1-2 days for your post to move to page 2.
I haven't seen many help topics getting ignored in the technique section, so if you know what you need to work on, ask your questions in that section (do a search first to see if it's already been answered).
If all else fails, PM somebody. If you notice somebody is really good at something you struggle with, ask them for help personally. As an example, I PM'd 4thImpulse awhile back because I was struggling with the mixing of a complicated song, and knowing he's very good at EQ, I figured he would be the best to ask, and I learned a whole lot more to mixing in addition to some pointers on how to fix up my song.
I would have helped you had I known you were asking for help, and I'm sure many others would have too.

I am not sure that this is possible.
besides that I think it may be a good idea (though it kinda sucks that the majority of entrants won't make it....)
I'd kind of like to do a "highlights from RW5" thing, showcasing the tracks that got huge reactions and such...but that's just a half thought at the moment. (I'd likely include unfriendly tracks like Cii's (very super awesome) remix)
I uh...actually, yes.Freewave wrote:sci any chance of letting people vote for their favorites via one of those toast beard voting pages? i know you'd need to have like 10 to 20 or selections (and 200 song selections to choose from) but people could use the same voting method with their artist name and email and all that jazz.

Freewave wrote:Yeah if that would work and we would require their username and match them up with contributing to RW5 and against duplication i think it could work. Just to verify this would be to assemble a "best of" user friendly for the music community to enjoy in a bandcamp compilation download? Just trying to verify the logic.
