I haven't done this in awhile, so here we go:
the NEXT *five* people to respond with 'Yay!' get a badge.
FIVE!

FIVE!

Sorry steph, I said 'the NEXT *five* people,' indicating that since you had already said 'yay!,' you are no longer eligible. Next time.

Wait, what? Since when is there a rule against posting 'yay!' twice, once before the badge-declaration post, and one after? Did someone drink a little Haterade with their lunch today? I'm sorry, I didn't realize it doesn't count to be overenthusiastic around here. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go pull down all my MTC shoutouts that I've scattered across the internets.

I live on hateraide. I like the lemon flavour the best. You got a badge for the shoutouts (which I graciously thank you for), and due to your little tantrum here, you'll get a lot more than that.

Yay!
There have already been five, but since one of them said 'YAY!' and one of them said 'Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1', then we had a 'Yay!?' and a 'yay!', they shouldn't really count, 'cause you said it had to be 'Yay!'

kinda off topic.
does anyone think contests make mixtapes get rated to high.
just so you can get a badge.
anyways. go team monster

Contest mixes do have an abnormally high tendency to score in the upper marks -- in 2.0 should we keep real mixes vs. contest mixes separate?
10/10/06 8:53pm
yes i believe so, cause this mix isnt my best. but for some reason it got rated really high. I mean i know the reasons, but i feel that this will now overshadow some of my other mixtapes.
maybe a top rated contest mixtapes section. and a top rated general section

i think some sort of distinction would be a good idea.. There are quite a few contest mixes in the top 10, and while these mixes are awesome, so are a lot of non-contest mixes. Contest mixes may be getting RATED higher because people are rating them more in comparison to the other contest mixes rather than on their overall goodness...
Contest mixes also get much more exposure than regular mixes, leading to a higher overall score because more people view and rate the mixes. If someone creates an awesome mix, and 5 more people create mixes right after it, their mix gets pushed off the front page, losing exposure very quickly. If the mix is a contest mix, tons of people are going to click the contest link and see a list of the contest mixes and check out that mix.

I concur. I think there should be a special nursery to nurture new mixes. Give them the fighting chance they deserve.
10/10/06 9:08pm
i completely agree.
my last mix which in my opinion is my best. was created this weekend, when no one was on. THen come monday it got pushed right off from a wave of new mixes.
ps there will be a sendspace for that one. i spent way to much time of the transitions of that one for people outside of my group not to hear it.

maybe it's because it's been a day since you posted that, but robots are kicking ass by my math

If I was given a Yay! badge then truely I would utter the greatest Yay! of them all. It would build from my toes into the balls of my feet, up my legs, rush up my spine, fill my lungs till bursting point, then erupt, gloriously, out of my mouth into the world.
Yay!
Yay!

also, the combination of galaxipi's avatar and her "YAY!" are quite stellar.

TOTALLY. It made bitching worthwhile. Especially because it's a crying little blonde girl. With crooked pigtails.

I still don't have a random badge, what's with that? I should totally buy my own laptop just to enter a competition and get an awesome badge.

Contest rewards and wrapup will be posted at some point this evening. Thanks for playing, y'all -- anyone have any good ideas for the next contest?
10/18/06 12:58pm
Oooh, if we separate the contest mixes vs. the regular mixes in the top 10, mine is still #1!
