Everybody picked some good songs this round!

Not everybody, I thought some were pretty rotten, honestly. I've decided to take on the Simon Cowell role this season. I'm not going to sugar-coat anything with my analyses. If I think a song is terrible, I'll say so in my comments about it. I'm not doing this to be mean, but as a contestant, it was frustrating when everyone would heap praise upon my picks and then score them low, so I'm not going to do that. It makes it difficult to improve when you're not given any reason for your low scores, so I'm going to try my best to offer honest, constructive criticism to the contestants. I hope no one will take it personally.

I'd prefer if every judge did this. It's not like anything is personally here. If a judge doesn't like a song, they have every right to express it.

[Gus Richlen: Ruffian]

I ust hope thrre is a movie round and that I last that long.

Hope you guys are feeling my choice.

Can you do the Carlton dance to it?

Would anyone mind if I don't hearfrom the llast judge, I scored this round? Or should I leave it at the 3 I have?

[Deleted]

Would it skew the results? If there are a bunch of ties or if the scores are really close, then it's best to wait.

However, the last judge (easy to figure out using the process of elimination, as all the other judges reported in) has his account set where you can't tell when he last signed it. I talked to him in a thread last night but who knows when he would come back.

So, while you would get the scores now, it might skew the results. Up to you guys.

Also, it should be noted that the judges haven't had a lot of time to work on their judging while (no offense to anyone) there's been an entire week for everything else to play out.

[TOO SWEET]

Personally, I'd be against it because like Tyger mentioned, you also know the other judges results and who sent in what picks.

[MrBRulzOK]

Yeah, I've waited this long to find out how I did. I can wait a day or so longer if need be.

[Deleted]

Ok, it was just a suggestion was all

Three picks missing for phase two, and waiting on one judge

[Deleted]

You could also give the final judge a deadline, like midnight board time, so we don't get too backed up.

Unless I won already, then you can post the results . But, seriously, if the results seem definitive and you can't wait, you can post unless you think the final judge's scores will change things.

[Big Bad Brad]

I don't mind either way to be honest I just want to see the results

[MrBRulzOK]

Yeah, I think a judge's deadline is perfectly reasonable.

[Deleted]

Just heard from the last judge, his rankings will be in about a hour or so

[Demented]

Someone is really going to love my rankings.

And someone is really going hate my rankings.

Vague, I know.

[TOO SWEET]

As a heads up, I already know my 2nd round pick won't be in until late tomorrow.

But remember folks, this is only the first of 3 scores, so anyone can still be in the singoff

Final lists to be posted when I gethome

[MrBRulzOK]

Eighth place. Not too bad for my first pick.

Interested to see the final lists when they go up.

[Gus Richlen: Ruffian]

First off, I agree with the top three.

Second, shocked that I got top spot. Eminence Front is not one of the better-known songs from The Who.

[Big Bad Brad]

13th place I'm not complaining could of been worse.

I look forward to see how each of the judges ranked the songs.

You going to post what scores the judges gave to each song like Tyger did last season? I'd love to see how they ranked each of the songs.
