Well, the contest is over and although it was a close battle, the monsters slaughtered their mechanical foes.
Well, the contest turned out pretty well, although the ratings ended up being a little skewed. In light of that, we have decided to award all participants with a team badge rather than just the victors (although the winning team is all getting a 50 point bonus).
Congratulations to Eraserhead, d-loot and Qualca for their top finishing Monster mixes.
Congrats to cst003, riotshields and sledgebrainerd for their top ranked robot mixes.
Points and badges have been awarded. Thanks to everyone who participated.
No new contest yet... if you have suggestions for a contest, now is your chance to voice them. We'll give you all a week off and will start next week with a brand new one!
(p.s. 2.0 kicks ass!)

but the preliminary version we have been playing around with internally is awesome.

Congrats to all, but seriously, that sucked, making eight badges and doing all the bookkeeping in the database. But that's just how much we love you all.
ps -- 2.0 really kicks ass.

we won't separate the contest mixes until 2.0... then we will retroactively separate it...
as of right now though, that would be 5-6 hours of work updating the existing site to handle it... and i'd much rather put the time into the 2.0 version (all enhancements to the existing site just push off our 2.0 release)

in re: separating...
there has been a lot of requests to separate the contest mixes into their own top list so that contests don't overshadow other mixes on the site (since they get more attention).
This play perfectly into 2.0 as we have a lot of new "top lists", and new ways for mixes to be rated. There is also another little something in there that we aren't divulging just yet (in a few days we'll make an announcement to get feedback on it).

What about a mixtape of songs based on books? Or a mixtape of songs that all have some instrument in common (besides the obvious guitar, durms, bass) .. say Hammond B3 Organ, or saxophone, or trumpet?

haha, too much work, not enough sleep?
qualca's badge for third place in this contest has a typo in it.. should say "if godzilla had FUR" instead of "if godzilla had fir"

How about Christmas versus Hannukah?
Something to that effect.
Actually, strike that, because I can only think of Adam Sandler when the latter comes to mind.
