Skol303 Posted February 28, 2015 Author Posted February 28, 2015 Tick tock, not long to go now. I've just listened through them all again, this time scattering comments like a pigeon drops... well, you get the gist. Genuinely, great work everyone. My cap is well and truly doffed to you all Quote
Skol303 Posted March 1, 2015 Author Posted March 1, 2015 WELL DONE BLEAT! And also... WELL DONE BILBO! A very close finish to a really good month. Big thanks to everyone who took part and voted. We'll post up March's challenge just as soon as Bleat messages me with a picture for inspiration... Quote
Dad3353 Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) Congratulations, Bleat, on your win this month; a very closely-won race..! Here is your downloadable, printable certificate that you can frame and proudly display... [attachment=185176:_BC_Cert_2015_02.pdf] ... (Download and save as '_BC_Chal_Cert_Febr_2015.pdf'...) Which looks like this (only bigger, of course..!)... [attachment=185174:_BC_Cert_2015_02.jpg] Well done, again. Onward and upward... Edited March 1, 2015 by Dad3353 Quote
alittlebitrobot Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Yeah, congrats Bleat. This month I voted for Bleat, Skol and xgxjs. I like this new voting system. Quote
lurksalot Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Yes congratulations Bleat , you got one of my votes aswell , the bar has definitely been raised again , well done to everyone who entered and a big thanks to those who took the time to listen, vote and contribute in the thread. I know February is technically a short month , but getting an entry done early for the challenge really makes the month seem a long one Quote
Bleat Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Well I'm genuinely amazed I won, thank you so much to everyone who felt my tune was worth a vote... it's definitely given me some confidence I've been lacking of late... next time I will try and use a real bass! Everyone's compositions were truly great, I really would have voted for everyone else if it was possible. A special mention must go to Bilbo though for basically coming joint 1st. I will be making multiple copies of my certificate and posting them in various places around town. Cheers, James Quote

[/quote] [sharedmedia=core:attachments:167485] ... and a big 'Thank you' to those who voted mine into a surprise, but welcome, 3rd place. An excellent crop this month; no wastage, proven by the absence of 'zero votes'. Well done, all who participated, in whatever capacity. Edited March 1, 2015 by Dad3353 Quote

Mornats Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) I had an absolute blast not only composing mine but listening to them all. There's something special about hearing other people follow the same inspiration as you and share the same angst/joy they had in the art of creating these works. I've got a tune in my head already for March... Dang, forgot to say well done Bleat! And Bilbo and Dad for 2nd and 3rd places! Edited March 1, 2015 by Mornats Quote
Leonard Smalls Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Excellently done, y'all - all cracking songs this month. And I got the wooden spoon... Whodathunkit? Quote

Well said Quote
Skol303 Posted March 1, 2015 Author Posted March 1, 2015 PS: what did everyone think of the new voting system? (ie. choice of three instead of one). I liked it and think we should switch to this from now on... but happy to discuss it! Quote
lurksalot Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 DOH , I did mean to mention that , yes, I think it worked well , it helped me whittle down my choices easier , well , down from 11 to 10 , (but don't tell Mr Smalls) Quote

[/quote] It would have better suited me if we had been allowed 10 votes, not 3 (assuming that one doesn't vote for oneself, of course...). Other than that, I'd say 'Success', to be retained, at least until a system of weighting can be implemented, like F1 racing, but fairer. It seems to work for that Eurovision thingy... "Poland: five points, La Pologne: cinq points..." That would be fun, wouldn't it..? No..? Oh, alright, then. Quote
