ITG Bracket - Tentative results

Aeronautical Vigilante · 08-06-2006, 06:02 PM

Okay, I do not have these finalized because I don't have my own work on this finished. I sincerely apologize for that. Also, jammitch's score for A New Ray Of Light hasn't been modified par the 'judge's entry score adjusted off their average' rule (which I admittedly didn't enforce for EggmaniMN - but that was an odd case).

While it was not assigned a place due to being disqualified for an out-of-competition release before it's in-competition release, Clear Blue Water was reasonably well liked by a fair number of those who took the time to judge it, and gets an Honorable Mention.

Now, here's the judge files (including what I have of mine to show you guys just how far behind I am

):

And the tentative results (in ODS format if you want to check my formulas using an OpenDocument-compatible spreadsheet program, and HTML for actually seeing it):

NOTICE: THESE ARE NOT FINAL, MY SCORES WILL MOST LIKELY SHIFT PLACES AROUND A FAIR BIT. I'm going to have to say 'it's done when it's done' on when my scores will be in and these ones finalized - shit piles on, plus I'm having a hard time getting myself to sit down and play through the files. It just... Isn't as fun as it used to be, perhaps becuase I've overformatted myself.

Please take your time. I personally think that a week is nowhere enough time to carefully judge ~27 files (even though I'm heavily anticipating the results!)

alphabet55 · 08-06-2006, 06:36 PM

Um, there's a mistake, I think. On the collective results thing, where it shows all of the public review scores, my entry (Kiss Me) is listed as getting a 3 from discovolante, but he gave me a 9.5, which is displayed as the score of the song above mine (Jump). Jump's score is displayed as Inner Universe's score, which is displayed as Identity's score, etc.

On a totally unrelated note: Shortysnmn2010, the BPM is displayed as part of the background becouse what you are seeing is actually a movie. I edited the BPM out of the real background, which you should see at the very end of the song.

I'm not doing as well as I'd hoped, but making it to the challenge round's good enough for me. Congrats to the high scorers!

(Well, it might go up a bit)

discovolante · 08-06-2006, 07:10 PM

I can confirm that on alphabet55's part. Kiss Me was excellent.

Rob00996 · 08-06-2006, 07:16 PM

(looks at current scores and who placed to go to the challenge round)

Awww man, it looks like I wont be in the challenge round, and I came soooooo close to reaching it. I hope some miracle happens that the final review will place me at least one rank higher.

**jammitch!** · 08-06-2006, 08:09 PM

Unless a) Neko's average is significantly lower (not looking likely) or b) Neko's score bumps my file up significantly, relative (also not looking likely) I'm going to lose a point or two on that judge skew and with tight competition that could drop me six places (but not out of the challenge round, at least). I might need it, with the reception Rock Steady's getting (ZOMG 11).

Remember not to include Clear Blue Water when calculating the averages. It brings mine up a full 3/4ths of a point.

discovolante · 08-06-2006, 08:36 PM

Wait. Let me get this straight.

You had a file in this bracket and you are one of the main judges?

Sorry but I call huge bullshit on that. I just realized Eggman had the same thing last round.

PlatinumHawke · 08-06-2006, 08:45 PM

I don't see any problems here. The judges scores, unless something extravagent happens, don't count on their soung. I'm judging both DDR brackets, and my file is in the first one. Most of the DDR judges have a song in one of the brackets.

Hell, I don't even think I have Tori no Uta in the top 12 at all, so I don't see any BS to be called on that.

Xythar · 08-06-2006, 09:03 PM

That's what the 'adjusting based on average' rule is for. I believe that means that if a judge gives low scores to everything, their score gets adjusted down slightly as well to compensate.

What you should also have realized is that there is a scoring adjustment that was defined waaaaay back when BlueSS put up the judging score system. Go read that topic now. Judging Criteria

**jammitch!** · 08-06-2006, 09:24 PM

I've been judging and entering sans problems since OSC2. If you hadn't noticed, I didn't give myself a grade, and they added a balancing factor this time just in case. Given that I give thorough (if harsh) reviews and actually got them in on time, I think you'd prefer me judging to only having exactly one review in.

That reminds me, #Infinity and Akira have scores for their own files. Remove those prior to final score tallying, please. >_>

*Akira* · 08-06-2006, 09:30 PM

nope, that was for Gradation.

Note that the score was shifted down

Zounder · 08-06-2006, 09:46 PM

What jammitch! said. I've been judging and entering since OSC3 with no problems at all (My entry is in bracket 2). In fact, this new system should make it even more fair.

#Infinity · 08-06-2006, 10:15 PM

About Jammitch's review (depressingly low ratings), the song I entered was supposed to be hard (and most certainly not boring, but fast and energetic), based on the song, so I had to thrown in some hard patterns. You were trying to correct me with some awkward patterns I threw in, but it really sounds like you dislike hard songs. Oh well, the only thing I truly want changed is the -1 for having "inaccurate" info on the folder. Yeah, so I didn't have parentheses surrounding 'Helix Mix'. Big deal. That was only because I couldn't use parentheses for the upload, and forgive me, but I did not know that the right choice was to use brackets instead (if it was stated in the rules, then leave it as it is).

I'm overall disappointed by my song's results. It beat all the worst songs, as well as Identity and Don't Cha, but it still ranked lower than quite a few songs I personally liked less (Be Princess especially). That's fine though, my next entry's going to be significantly better, as I should send something easier and more creative. Plus, I'm certain that my DDR entry is going to get much more positive feedback. After all, I did work harder on it. At least OSC 5's ITG bracket had a 13 footer for the super-experts.
