PRC144 - Playing an online game (Assassin Blue)

[Bundeslang]

The People's Remix Competition 144
PRCv6-14

Hello everyone and welcome to the People's Remix Competition! (www.doulifee.com/prc/PrcSong/PRCcommercial.wmv)

Like PRC142, PRC143 had four songs and a bonus mix. Ghetto Lee Lewis tried to win after his second place. DjMokram tried to improve his third place. Chavous and Prophecy came back to PRC to complete the participants list. Setokaibarocket also planned to enter, but problems with the ThaSauce MP3 upload system and his internet kiosk it didn't arrive on time.
Prophecy show that he still can remix (he wasn't around for a year) and he takes the victory with almost the maximum score. Ghetto Lee Lewis received a little more points as Chavous and he claims second place. DjMokram did a nice job, but he received the last place wooden spoon.

With his second PRC victory, Prophecy decided to submit a different source. It's from a popular online freeware game (it is accepted since the OCR guidelines don't give a real answer). I like the idea so I decided to just do it. I believe not many people will recognize the source. With Prophecy being the composer of the song for that game, this PRC is a little ORC as well.

Assassin Blue (Online) - Red's Theme

ThaSauce link (http://compo.thasauce.net/rounds/view/PRC144)


This game might be very unknown, since it's an online game. It doesn't have any OC Remixes (of course). More information about the game can be found on:
http://www.yoyogames.com/games/show/44391

Yes, you can play the game over there to see where the song is. Otherwise just think this is an ORC.



GOOD LUCK!

Well, since OCR has Cave Story as a game listed (and since that game itself was used for PRC91), I don't see much wrong with homebrew games.
As to Prophecy's presence... welcome back :D

[Bundeslang]

As long as people don't start making game with music for PRC, I accept these submissions.

Also, 5 days left and bump to make sure people not think PRC143 is the PRC going on (it's bumped above this).

I think I'll be entering this round.

Well played Proph :P

[Bundeslang]

Uploading seems to be slow. I hope it's better tomorrow, otherwise if you want to upload an entry but it doesn't work, then post the link here. Voting will then not start before I uploaded these songs (it looks like my song is one of those).

EDIT: I managed to upload my entry, but it took 15 minutes.

[Ghetto Lee Lewis]

Had no problem uploading it. Only took a couple of minutes. Thanks for the heads up though.

Best lyrics ever.
In the case of there are three entries, people have to vote for this because they have to post their top 3.

[Bundeslang]

Here's the voting stage
This is probably one of the slowest PRC in the boards (only 5 replies), but still we managed to get three songs before the deadline. I decided to do a song and regulars from the last rounds DjMokram and Ghetto Lee Lewis tried did it as well.

Participants are encouraged to vote, they receive a three point bonus. They can't vote for themselve. The winner from the last round, Prophecy, has a double vote.


The mixing stage is over. To vote, you should do the following:
- Visit the stated ThaSauce Page (http://compo.thasauce.net/rounds/view/PRC144) and listen to all the entries
- Scroll to the form at the bottom of the screen
- Fill in the rank of the entries from first to third.
- State a reasoning for it.

Participants only have to send in their top 2, they are not allowed to place themself in the top 3.

You have until NEXT TUESDAY, April 21th at 10:59 am ThaSauce time, this means less time as usual to vote, check my signature in the first post or simply the ThaSauce page for the exact time you have.

The winner will get to choose the source tune for PRC145 which will start Thursday! PRC146 will be regular again.

The songs:
Bundeslang - Blue vs Red (http://compo.thasauce.net/files/bundeslang_-_Blue_vs_Red(PRC144).mp3)

Anyone want to update the topic at vgmix? I'm being blocked, even with proxies. -_-

I tried it, but it didn't work well. However, people know how, when and where to vote.

[Bundeslang]

It's results time.
My internet is too slow, but I hope it works now.
Four songs again. Ghetto Lee Lewis and DjMokram tried again to improve their last round result (I can copy paste this sentence). With Prophecy's victory, he decided to submit a source from a game where he created the music for. This was one of the less active rounds on the OCR boards, but it didn't need an extension. Bundeslang submitted a song to complete the contest.

9 Voters this round and all users (yes, even me) received a first place. There is some variation in voting, but the difference is big enough.

Total number of mixes - 3
Total number of votes - 9

Highest possible score - 30
Minimum possible score with voting - 12

Bundeslang takes another last place, but this time it's not with a minimum score. Still, he wins the last place wooden spoon, with 17 points.

DjMokram deserved to win, he received 21 points, but it's only worth a second place.

And the winner is Ghetto Lee Lewis with 26 points!

Congratulations GLL.
Ghetto Lee Lewis asked to not vote for his song (or place it last), but most voters didn't listen. 26 points is more than enough to be the winner. I think he did a very good song with probably the best vocals ever. Maybe I should try next round to do a not-vote-for-me-campaign.
The rules are so that I can't take points away (I'm only able to remove the 3 points voting bonus).
This means Ghetto Lee Lewis wins the right to select the source for the next PRC, number 145. Send your source to me (with a MID/MP3 file if you can) by PM (http://www.ocremix.org/forums/private.php?do=newpm&u=8264) before next Thursday, 23 April at 11:59 am Eastern US Time.

You may select any source from any game, as long as it doesn't have an Overclocked Remix and it hasn't been on PRC before.

See you next Thursday.

Congrats GLL! =p And rather nice round people, despite only 3 entries =)
