Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Signups are closed. Songs are sent and everyone has exactly a month (22DEC) to get their files to me. NOTE: GRAPHICS AREN'T NEEDED, BUT ENCOURAGED. I'M NOT THAT GREAT AT GRAPHICS BUT IF NEED BE, I WILL POOP SOMETHING OUT. BUT IT WILL BE POOP.

Indeed. A couple years ago I did something like this on R21Freak, and it went pretty well (my file sucked though, i'm terrible at stepping for pad). So I thought that I would try something like it, but for keyboard files instead. So, without further adieu...


Da Secret Santa Simfile Contest!

Summary:

How it's gonna go down is like this. People sign up, and send me one song they want stepped. Once I have a decent amount of signups, I'll send the songs to a random person, who then will step the song. For example: Moches, Kommisar, Gundam-Dude, and aperson sign up (lmao ap). Each one of them will send me one song. Once signups are closed, I will put all the names into a random bracket generator, and use the outcome to determine teams. Let's say Moches and Kommi get paired together/ap and GD get paired together. I would send the song Kommisar sent to me to Moches, and vice versa per pair. Then, we step! No one will know who is stepping what (except for me, but I'm not going to participate (unless I finish a super secret file hehe)).

Now for rules.

Rules:
1. Only one song per participant.
2. Song must be between 1:00 and 2:30. NO EXCEPTIONS.
3. Send something with a constant BPM. We don't want someone inexperienced getting Revolutionary Etude as their song.
4. You don't have to be a well-known simfile artist at all. This can be your first file. If, however, you can't sync it correctly, I can find the offset and BPM for you.
5. Graphics are needed. However, they don't have to be the best (when I did the secret santa at r21freak, I googled graphics and cropped a banner lmao).
6. Most importantly, have fun!

14 sign ups! Awesome.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

haha just like r21freak


in this like ****

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

I can try this. When will the songs be sent out?

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

You can send me the song whenever you like, preferably before the cutoff date for signups. Remeber though (lol halogen), length of the song should be 1:00 to 2:30. I don't think anyone that's really new to simfiling will want to step TTFAF or something as long.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

btw I can only send something after november 18th so don't rush dis plzz

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Take ya time nig, signups close on the 21st.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

To where do I send the song, Torrent? Via PM, with a mediafire/megaupload/4shared/whatever link, or you'll provide an e-mail?

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Just go ahead and PM me :')

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

I didn't see that rule, sorry! I have another song - too lazy to upload though.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

That's cool rofl. There's plenty of time to find stuff.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

I may or may not, but if I sync a non-constant bpm song myself can I send that

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

I don't know. The pairs are going to be generated randomly, so you may end up sending your song to someone that doesn't know anything about syncing, regardless if it's synced before hand or not.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

I think I'll join too. :P

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

in. hopefully i get something relatively easy to step.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Sign me up. :D

Edit: Seconds of silence at the end wouldn't count towards the time limit, would they?

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

PMed you my song

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Sign me up! Will PM you a song later hehe 8)

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Oh yeah I have to find something for them to step oops. That's gonna be a challenge lmao

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

I'll sign up.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Nope! If there is silence, I'll just cut it for you.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

pm'd you meh song

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Only have five so far.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Dicks Oak.


I'm down for this

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Cool, we're up to 23 participants and 7 songs sent already. I think I'm going to participate as well (I'll know who is sending me what but I'll take whatever song I get lol).

24 people seems good enough, so closing signups tentatively.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Gunna send in my song today or tomorrow

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

don't forget that you'll have less peeps if not everyone submits

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

oh yeah

Signups are open again lmfao, tell everyone about it.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

besides

you don't have to do any work except pair people up, the extra workload for more people signing up is negligible

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Let me in, the poisonous gas is gonna kill me D: I wanna fan some fun here too. :3

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

'poisonous gas' what the hell kind of christmas do you celebrate

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

bump to remind people about this

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

I was gonna bump this lol. Added raine, gonna do a recount of the songs tonight.

Remember, signups are until the 21st. Get more people, people!

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

I have a song that I was trying to figure out a good way to cut to fit the length guidelines but it's not going so well lol. Probably going to find another song to do.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Send to me if you want lol, I'm pretty good at cutting.

EDIT: I already have 12 songs out of 25 people signed up. I would like to have all the songs by the 21st.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

It's not so much that I'm bad at cutting as I'm not sure what I want to cut out and where it wont sound too weird lol. It was a song a friend of mine made years ago and I thought it would be cool to see a chart for it. But I'll send it over and you can see if maybe there's a spot that would make a good cut I'm just not finding it XD

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

it's a party and everyone is invited!!

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

sending song soon (when i can find a mp3 link rofl)

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Signups are closed, but I'm not sending music until midnight of 22Nov. Hurry and send your songs. I also updated the first post with some people from KBO, and who has sent songs.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Yeah, I tried a few different cuts but deleted them all. What kind of stuff does she like? I might have something she can use lol.

Re: Secret Santa Simfile Contest!
 

Honestly I'm in to all kinds of music lol. Just trying to figure out something that would be good to give someone to step.
