Welcome to ORC105.

Source Material
Last week's winner was Nutritious.

Well, I kind of had a problem after this last competition: I didn't have any original music to speak of and had never made a midi file before (sad, I know). So, I put this song together this morning. I went for an upbeat-type feel for the song, but still tried to leave room open for interpretation. Hope you guys like it.

this was nothing to be worried about, nutritious.

however! it's impossible to listen to this and not think of this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Feel_Love)

Sigh, I've always hated that song and, unfortunately, I hear exactly what you mean. Oh well :)

[Sir_NutS]

not bad, not bad. I might do this, I like the melody.

[nodspaw51]

alright, well
i've got something going on, you can expect a submission within the day

just a warning, its been a real long time since i've submitted anything to ocr even as competition material, so, i might be a little shaken up from listening to all my depeche mode

haha
with an intro like that, how can i lose?

anyways, hope everyone else is having good luck with their submissions!

Edit: I posted my song on that Saucy website or whatever if you guys want to check it out. I would link you to the soundclick, but as its still confirming wether i'm worthy or not to be a member...eh, it'll be a while

[analoq]

Sigh, I've always hated that song
a pox upon thee! that's one of the greatest songs in the history of music. well, electronic music at least.

there you go, hope everyone else's entries are coming out well

[Sir_NutS]

Uploaded my entry, enjoy.

[Nutritious]

Awesome, two great entries already. Hopefully more to come (I'm looking at you, Analoq).

OK, I guess I better clarify. I hate the vocals on this song, they get on my nerves. Otherwise, it's good :)

[analoq]

Hopefully more to come (I'm looking at you, Analoq).

whoops. would've liked to, but i was swamped.
not even enough time to pull together something of my last ORC entry's quality. blah.

[Chickenwarlord]

[Doulifée]

And our winner is Nuts.

Congrat Senor nuts. don't forget to send me the tune for next orc. ;-) thanks everyone for voting and sending mix.


Make Your Way by Sir_NutS Score: 12
Toybox Politiks by nodspaw51 Score: 8

[Sir_NutS]

:)

I'll try to come up with something, as I don't have too much mixable material left.

[nodspaw51]

congrats, nutsy!
highly anticipating what you've got for next orc!

[Bundeslang]

Fun. I created a remix list a while ago from almost all the contests. Rexy and S|r Nuts switched positions for a while. After entering some DOD-results, Rexy took the second place from S|r Nuts, but after the victory here, S|r Nuts is now second again with a small 5 points advantage and 1560.
Still, The Orchicalcon is the big number 1. He entered (and won) a lot more and has 1830 points (winning an ORC is worth 60 points). Nodspaw51 is now 37th with 210 points.

WHAT THE?!

I voted. ;(

system is flawed :(

[andyjayne]

WHAT THE?!

I voted. ;(

system is flawed :(

As did I... wtf?

[analoq]

Doulifee didn't delete your votes, i assume.

that's very concerning. it's worked for both of you guys before... did you notice anything unusual when you voted this time around? errors or...?

[Sir_NutS]

well I was about to point out that you should all contact analoq.

It's weird really, it worked fine for the last competition.

[andyjayne]

Didn't notice anything although maybe the cookie/session expired when I voted. I'm pretty sure it didn't say anything but I did have the window open for about 2 hours before submitting the vote as I listened to one track in one break and the other in my other break.

I do this normally though and sometimes have the window open in excess of 5 hours. It's possible I have changed some settings in my browser.

[Alex Smith]

I noticed nothing unusual. It's not the end of the world for voting, I suppose, but what if something like this was to happen when submitting an entry?

Very strange indeed.

[Nutritious]

Very strange indeed.

Well, at least with submitting an entry, you can see immediately if it worked. Voting-wise, though, you can't tell whether or not it went through.

[Doulifée]

Doulifee didn't delete your votes, i assume.

that's very concerning. it's worked for both of you guys before... did you notice anything unusual when you voted this time around? errors or...?

nope i didn't touch anything. didn't user profile have a page somewhere where it show your vote history?

[analoq]

yeah, your profile will show your voting history. that's currently the only way to verify your vote was accepted, you guys might want to check that next time.

if there is a problem trust i will provide the remedy. a pulsating rhythmical remedy.
