[Deleted member 5361]

I voted for short songs too but how short are we talking? Less than 2 minutes? 1 minute?

 

[Kimrt]

I was thinking that short but as I'm hosting wlsc maybe someone else would go for it ;; I never imagined it to win ;;

Poor Video Games 2 - always the bridesmaid eh?

 

[Fearnavigatr]

It was basically the same before we finally got to do the first Video Games, lots of campaigning and close calls until we got to the moment where the non-gamers split their votes just enough. The sequel's time will come!

I want to suggest for the next poll:
tsetnoC gnoS noitaN - NSC in reverse, where first the host reveals the results, then we vote, then we send the songs.

 

[Veronika]

Heey again, who would like to host Short Songs? Any volunteers maybe?

 

[Deleted member 5361]

Sugar Arrangement: Sugar daddy/mommy/baby bops where players enter songs that tackle sugar dating.

Heey again, who would like to host Short Songs? Any volunteers maybe?

Lol, if no-one wants to host, can we have another vote to choose a new theme? It's been over a week now - maybe the hunger for Short Songs wasn't that great after all

Video Games

Will you host?

 

[Fearnavigatr]

Will @sigi host?

 

[Veronika]

Tbh I'm quite shocked myself that nobody wants to host, as lately hosts seem to be found just right away most of the time. Idk what happened now. Maybe everyone suddenly fell out of love with short songs... Well, happens.

But yeah, maybe Video Games will be ok. I guess if there's someone who would like to host it, then it's fine. This theme almost won after all.

 

[Kimrt]

I must admit I suggested it cause of the drama about recap voting or skipping through songs ;; I had no expectations of it to win but I guess no one wanted to host it xS I didn’t have time to host it back when it won so wanted to give the chance to someone else.

I’m fine by video games as well ^^ both options were good.

Ok, since it's been 20 days since the last poll, and nothing is happening, I can host the Short Songs spinoff to get the ball rolling again. (Plus, I have an entry in mind that I can't send to NSC). And since it's kinda my fault it was suggested, I'll take one for the team here. I'm gonna use the length rule from the 2013 Short But Sweet spinoff, so songs with a maximum length of 2:30 are allowed. Will open a thread tonight. Don't expect amazing graphics tho...

 

[theditz83]

I assume if the video play time is longer than 2:30 but the actual music itself plays for less than 2:30, then that would be okay?

 

[dogmeat]

2:30 seems barely below average, I imagined it more like 1:30

 

[Kimrt]

nice ^^ bra du tar en for laget!!

 

[Kimrt]

2 min or shorter is short and fair. 2,5 is just a bit shorter than Eurovision songs.

 

[dogmeat]

Anyway, I'd already sent my entry for both themes at once to previous NSC.

Maybe I'll prepare my votes in advance too.
