Nightcore competition #1 VOTING! **RESULTS POSTED!**

[Maikel631]

This contest has now ended. Click here to see the results.

So here are the contestants for the first Nightcore competition! 10 entries!! Awesome ;)
The theme for the contest was freestyle (no theme). I don't know when it will end yet.

PLEASE LISTEN TO ALL THE ENTRIES BEFORE VOTING.
To cast your vote you must PM me with the song you're voting for and why you're voting for it.
Voting is to be done based on the overall quality and appeal of the song and nothing else. So don't vote for a song because you like the person who made it, you like the picture that's used in the video with it, etc.

People who are in the contest are allowed to (but don't have to) vote. They just CANNOT vote for themselves.
IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO HELP OTHERS WIN THE CONTEST YOU SHOULD NOT VOTE.
All votes I receive will be kept anonymous. To avoid any hurt feelings, I will not reveal who voted for what entry. You can do so however if you wish.

I'll be updating this thread frequently with the updated vote counts. You can use this thread to discuss the entries etc but do not cast votes in this thread, they will be deleted and not counted.

Prizes are not set in stone yet. I will update on this later. There will be a 1st place, 2nd place, 3rd place, and maybe runner-up prize.
What the prizes will be may depend on whether or not I agree with who the winner is. If I do decide to do promotion I will be judging the contest myself, and try to take the votes into consideration (meaning there'd be a possibility that you got the most votes but didn't win the contest)

Since there are a large amount of entries and not a substantially larger amount of people on this forum, I will probably end up contacting some of my subscribers on YouTube for their input. I'm hoping to get at least 30-50 votes before the contest is over.

The entries!!

Nightcore - Tears In May (RaveComing)


Nightcore - AVGN Intro Remix (VocaloidHDSub)


Nightcore - Naming The Stars (Raver)


Nightcore - Vanity (Moonightcore)


Nightcore - Turn It Around (DjSwemania)

Nightcore - My Heart Is Beating Boom Boom (TheMojo890)


Nightcore - Escape On Time (Nightcorix)

Good luck to everyone! ;D

Okay, I really want to make this clear.

YOU NEED TO TELL ME WHY YOU'RE VOTING FOR A SONG WHEN YOU PM ME.

This is because in the past, people have voted for songs for really shallow reasons and I want to prevent bias in the competition.
Your vote won't be counted unless you do this.

It's way too much of a hassle to ask people on YouTube to look at 10 different videos, so they'll be playing a part in future contests where there are less entries.
Contest will end at 20 votes.

1st place gets bulletin on my YouTube channel
2nd place gets a custom forum rank + can opt for a nightcoreuniverse.net e-mail
3rd can opt for a nightcoreuniverse.net e-mail

Some prizes may be removed depended on how evenly distributed the votes turn out to be
Yes most of the prizes are crummy but I can't think of anything else, and competitions on the forums have never had prizes until now c:

Please keep in mind that the votes may not necessarily determine the 1st place winner.
And no, I haven't really had a good look at all of the entries yet, so I don't have a winner in mind right now.

This might take a while...

Less than you might think, we're officialy at 11 already, and I bet there's 2-3 votes sitting in Maikel's box

Looking at the amount of active members on this forum I don't think a lot more people will be voting. And I think some people here would really like to join the next competition. So, I will accept one more vote to make a total of 15 votes and then judge the contest. Vote count won't be updated anymore until the contest is over.

[Maikel631]

The contest has now ended.Thanks SO much to everyone who entered and voted, you helped get the old forum spirit alive again!

There were 15 votes in total. This is the final vote count:

Raver had 6 votes
Moonightcore had 4 votes
RaveComing had 1 vote
VocaloidHDSub had 1 vote
TimeToE had 1 vote
TheMojo890 had 1 vote
Nightcorix had 1 vote

Whoever isn't listed had 0 votes

Judging the winners was definitely not easy. There were a lot of songs that sounded very good to me but only got 1 vote, or no votes at all. I did keep the voting in consideration, or at least, tried to.
I know that some people may be quite upset by the decisions I made. Please note that this is only a small-scale competition, the prizes are not that significant and that there will be many more contests to come.

So, here are the winners, as decided by me:

Raver wins 1st place
RaveComing wins 2nd place
Moonightcore wins 3rd place

(If it helps to know, RaveComing did not actually win anything besides recognition because he already has all the prizes for 2nd place.)

1st place gets bulletin on my YouTube channel
2nd place gets a custom forum rank + can opt for a nightcoreuniverse.net e-mail
3rd can opt for a nightcoreuniverse.net e-mail

Congratulations to the winners!! The 1st place winner will have their prize shortly after I upload my video today and anyone else who won anything has been contacted via PM.

Next contest will start tomorrow or in a few days.

This was fun, I can't wait for the next one.
It's good that it makes more nightcore songs that are easy to find and good. :)

[Kestrel0907]

It's been a while since the last competition,so... i wonder when does the next one start? :p

[Yakkety]

Damn, I should've joined NU.net earlier >.>

[RaveComing]

It's been a while since the last competition,so... i wonder when does the next one start? :p

I'm thinking of making a new one as soon as enough people will be getting their uploads right, this way we'll be able to host proper contests with proper nightcore

[Maikel631]

I meant to start the second competition a LONG time ago xD it will be up soon!

Cool,i can't wait! >:p

[Johannez691]

The good thing is that if we make a contest #2 it will actually be a Nightcore contest since everyone's agreed to make real Nightores.

[Moonightcore]

It will be amazing :3 I can't wait :P

[Ahuze]

Ooh, awesome! :D Super-excited.
