NEW JUDGES & WORKSHOP MOD! Congratulations are in order!

[KingTiger]

Flex, I knew you would get judge sooner or later Congrats man, I know you'll do a good job giving out thoughtful feedback.

and Congratulations to Chimpzilla on becoming judge (wait, so we've got TWO judges in Phoenix, AZ near me now, when before there were none?!), and XPRTNovice on becoming workshop mod! Both well deserved

[Esperado]

exciting to see people moving up the ranks! Good luck to you guys!

[Gario]

Woo, nice work, Chimpazilla and Flexstyle on the Judge positions! May we see moar awesome music come through here because of your hard working-ness!

Also, hey there XPRTNovice - let's make the Workshop move like never before... in all seriousness, I promise to schedule more of my time toward that over the next year than I have of late, myself, so hopefully it'll move as it's supposed to.

Congratulations all around - let's bring OCR into 2014 with a bang!

Nice!

As workshop mod I think XPRT has the obligation to add a sax solo to every song posted in that forum!

(I'm kidding of course, I have already bothered him too much with guest playing!)

Thanks everyone! I'm so glad to be onboard. We will all do our best to help in whatever way we can, and move the queue forward too!

yea no kidding. I've never seen the judges subforum so active before. I usually check OCR a few times a day and every time I have checked today a new remix was ...well NO'ed at least.

OCR: rededicated to killing your dreams

[OceansAndrew]

judges have been judging before now, just didnt have enough votes to closet things out, yo

[Brandon Strader]

Um, that's adorable and all, Brandon, but some of us have been on the planet close to twice as long as you, and may be quite familiar with these words already.

lol, those last 5 mixes or so were judged like 2 months ago.

[Brandon Strader]

I think the ones they're closing out with like 5 no's were part of the testing process, they usually close out no votes with only 3 no's

Also can we vote to formally name this the "Christmas of Tears" at OCR

[Cash]

Congrats Kristina and Mike! Both of you are awesome people and are now also awesome judges!

And congrats to XPRTNovice for becoming a workshop mod, you have a misleading name for someone so talented.

[FenixDown]

Congrats on the promotions you three!

[DarkSim]

Nice one lady and gents!

[XPRTNovice]

Thanks everyone Happy to be more involved in the community.

Big ups, huge props, and muchos congratsiosos..... or whatever, something congratulatory in Spanish...!!

Though, I told this to XPRT once I saw the news: I'm not even a little bit surprised or impressed at all. Looking at those three names, my reaction was immediately "pfft.... what took so long? 'bout daaayum time!"

the only problem I have so far is that the Judges Decisions have already been moving incredibly fast. REALLY fast. As in it looks like I can no longer depend on sporadically sending perfectionist quickfixes anymore during the long wait.

oh well, the times are a-changin.

FYI, 6 of those 10 mixes were finished early as part of the judging test batch.
