Ableton Live Beat Battle #1 "and the winner is....."

[MacGuffin]

ts man just listening to the beat right now, sounds tight

wtf happened to my post? i wrote loads !

what did you write?

[MacGuffin]

So he just happen to cheat for YOU in a blind poll.... You think we're retarded or something?

Oh please, why would he f*ck up his own battle? The votes were so overwhelming it was obvious they were not real votes. If he had wanted an advantage wouldn't had done it more subtly? Clearly this was done by someone with mischievous intentions.

[funky shit]

Whens the next one on?

missed this.

[skullNbones]

yo, congratulations MacGuffin, i was so close to voting for yours as well! everybody's beats were cool in different ways. sweet job. and thanks again to Mr. Dervish for taking the trouble.

i liked the format, made it kind of exciting and mysterious that it was anonymous. i'll def do it again...

[UnCL0NED]

congrats Macguffin, that was indeed some sick sick shit.


about the competition:

i think it was a fun thing to do, but there is lots of room for improvement. There's really no point in having a competition with voting if there are only going to be 20 votes and they aren't even going to be counted correctly. So basically, i think this thing should be more formalized or do away with the voting and the idea of a winner. Post a challenge, give a very limited time to complete it, and then post tracks and .als's without any weird attempts at anon voting. Basically, i won't bother if it goes the same way this one went, not that anybody cares what i think.

why the negativity man?

i was pulling rules from other battles that have worked quite well. if you want to blame someone for the poll failing blame cperezzzz

no reason to be a jerk about it

if you want to set the rules...win the battle

macguffin can do whatever he wants now its in his hands

You better check yourself, i'm not being a jerk by pointing out some obvious problems with what happened. The only way that anything ever improves is through evaluating honest criticism. How many times do i need to say that i had a lot of fun, thought it was a great idea, and enjoyed everyone's contributions? That aside, am I allowed to still have some issues with how some of it was executed without you acting like i'm nuts? please chill the fuck out.
