Dad3353 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]And the winner is... Skol303..! Suspense again, but the people have spoken... Here , then, is your Winner's Certificate (download and save as pdf file, then proudly print and frame...) ... [attachment=195399:BC_Chal_Cert_2015_06.pdf] ... which looks like this (but bigger, of course..!)... [attachment=195400:BC_Chal_Cert_2015_06.png] A mixed bag of interpretations again, and a fairly wide spread of votes, so all were appreciated by someone..! Shame we can’t have multiple winners. Any mileage in declaring a Silver and Bronze, though..?. [rant] I find, personally, that the number of folks that go to the trouble of voting is disappointingly low. Can’t be helped, I suppose, but, to me, it seems a shame when there’s so much good stuff being produced. Their loss, I know, but still...[/rant][/font][/size] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Interestingly, my soundcloux listen count for each tune is in the region of 100-150 so people are listening, just not voting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BirchTree Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Congratulations Skol! It was a relatively tight race, however, all votes for well-deserved. Looking forward to seeing your retaliation, Bilbo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Quite; even mine are up in the 60s. They may not all be BCers, though, as anyone can connect to Soundcloud and listen (and why not, indeed..?). How many folks from BC listen..? No way of telling, I think. Does it matter..? Not a jot, the world keeps on spinning... I suppose 19 voters, 10 of whom have entered a piece, is better than 6 or 7..! We've had more in the past, so there is hope yet. We were chastised for being too forward with our promotion of the Challenge; maybe the pendulum has swung the other way and it's not promoted enough..? I should probably fret about it less and simply be grateful for the hard core of followers we currently enjoy. I'm sure, though, that there are a fair few out there that don't even [i]know [/i]there's a Challenge every month..! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowdown Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Well done Skol. I can't help thinking, that if Bilbo had added three extra semi quavers to his 13/8 composition, that he might have got three extra votes needed for victory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fingers211 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Congratulations Skol ! I enjoyed listening to them all and it was pretty close in the end......

Leonard Smalls Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Well done Skol (and all who contributed!); just make sure this month's piccy allows me to channel my inner Nick Drake And strangely, my odd non-entry compo got 60odd listens, and the better one only got 39!

It was a close run finish with Bilbo and paul h, so hats off to those guys too and everyone else It [i]is[/i] disappointing that we don't get more interest in the voting; but we've had a big discussion about it in the past and, well, you can "lead a horse to water...." etc, etc. Some people just aren't arsed and don't know what they're missing. And despite it being a cliche, the real buzz from these challenges is in the writing and recording - as we all know. The voting is really just a whimsical 'show and tell', but it's fun nonetheless Thanks again to all who took part. Sterling work. I'll post up this month's challenges ASAP today...
