Congratulations to the victor /}

Narrowly avoiding going three-for-three on scoring higher than my top pick (and being confused how that happened).

I'm glad I could make a couple of peoples' days, anyway. Tammy needs to enter more of these.

It's been done, so no, but if you submit anything else by Rick Astley you'll get my twelve. He's got more bangers.

I did allow this one consciously knowing it broke the rules, which creates some problems if someone actually wants to submit some Rick Astley song that's not Never Gonna Give You Up in the next 15 contests. So I guess, if you actually want to do that, then PM me and we'll talk.

Anyway, time to get this new contest up.

So here's the usual chart of how much your votes differed from the final list, or (as I suspect may be more true) how sad you are about the final list. Penalties have been reverted.

SHEEPLE

InflatablePie
|
Aurathebirb
Panzerjager
VashtaNeurotic
|
tris
Dr Easy Bake = Formerfish = toolenduso
notachipmunk
|
schadd_
|
Tammy = Vi
pickemgenius
|
|
vizIIsto
SNOWFLAKE


(Fixed with corrected formulae)

My conclusion from all of this is that I literally don't know how iPie does it.

Q for if anyone cares: Should I assume that people would rate their songs first in every contest, or should I continue excluding entrants' own submissions?
actually this idea works terribly in practice

Have something new. Here are the BFFs, the people who rated each others' entries highly (i.e. within the top 3). They're totally not cliques.

OH BABY, A TRIPLE: toolenduso & Aurathebirb + tris + schadd_ (and if I were looking at top 4 reciprocation, DEB would be here too)
DOUBLE: pickemgenius & Dr Easy Bake + InflatablePie
Vi & Tammy

Well, toolenduso's entry came in second.

idk man I got good at this stuff I guess

I also think I have mediocre taste in music so the top 3s (except Tacocat you monsters) are reassuring
