Soundtrack Competition Results

Again I would like to thank all the artists who submitted outstanding and original tracks to this competition, but it appears, ladies and gentlemen, that one artist has swept the boards!

I'd rather not go into honorable mentions, because as far as I'm concerned all entrants deserve an honorable mention, and had more people voted I have no doubt that every song would have received its share of votes. But the independent statistics received don't lie. Take a look:

Here are the votes in alphabetic order by voter's moniker:

VOTER__________________FIRST PLACE___________________SECOND PLACE

I think we have very clear winner here ladies and gentlemen;

Mr Andy Foyston!
Congratulations, Andy.


As for runners up, let's look at the stats to get a clearer picture:
Only first place votes were to be tallied unless there is a tie, however, these are all the artists who got a 1st or 2nd place mention:
AndyF - 5 mentions
KtA - 3 mentions
Pidgeman - 3 mentions
Charlie Armour,
Dave Meredith,
GeekBoyy,
& Indiana99 - 2 mentions
Pulsipher,
Gravity Slip,
Liquid
& Martez - 1 mention.


Of course, first place votes should have more weight than second place votes, so if we were to say that a first place vote = 2 points and a second place vote = 1 point, here is the breakdown:

AndyF - 9 points
KtA - 5 points
Charlie Armour - 4 points
Dave Meredith - 4 points
Pidgeman - 3 points
Indiana99 - 3 points
GeekBoyy - 2 points
Pulsipher - 2 points
Gravity Slip,
Liquid
& Martez - 1 point.

Whatever way you break down the votes received, the winner by a landslide of popular opinion is, again:
Mr Andy Foyston!
Take a bow, Sir. A well earned victory for an outstanding soundtrack!


(Any errors in the above calculations are my own, so let me know if I made a mistake somewhere. Appreciate it!)

CONGRATULATIONS - a very deserving winner.

[Dave Fountain]

Congrats to Andy and to a brilliant competition.

I had six winners according to my calculations but thankfully didn't have to resort to a pin.

[Demagol]

Congratulations, Andy!

And damn, I finally wasn't sure if we have to vote for one or two competitors ;/. Nvm.

[James Oakwood]

Well done Mr Foyston

On a slightly different note - if ya go to the home page and select "genre" from the tabs and then select "games soundtrack" (under electronica) wouldn't you expect to see tracks that have just been in the compo?

There are only 4 tracks listed (are all by MSL).

Is something wrong?

[ANDYF]

WOW!! I am totally gobsmacked This competition was full of exceptional tracks and to be nominated the winner of them is all the more enjoyable. Thank you to everyone who voted for me and I truly am extremely flattered.

Off to do my half marathon for charity in London tonight and if I get through that it and my beloved Tigers win against Cardiff today it will end up one of my great days!!

Thanks to everyone much appreciated


Take Care

Andy
