Last Team Standing: Girl Groups Edition

[Andrea]

You wrote album art in your explanations
Both of twice covers were just photographs.

You're pretty much telling us the criteria are whatever you will like. It will be almost impossible for us to tell whether you find something most people find messy, messy or not. Or that you think putting things at the edges make something less messy.

This is pretty biased and its not even low key starting with the specific theme of the round itself. Count me out.

I will send my last reply about this topic here instead of writing it in the team conversation.

First of all I already said that there are many criterias coming into play and I can't make a list of all of them, also Baymax already sent what I asked from him in private and you got an idea. I said album artwork because it's a synonym of album cover and, even if you won't say it, the submissions sent by VESI weren't just photographs but it's clear that there was work behind it, minds behind it, to make it look nice.

We already went through another game where I was being the judge, 7 Christmas Presents, and it was obvious that my preferences will make a difference. Back there I watched so many videos and listened to so many tracks to learn more about my K-Pop tastes, plenty of songs from older generations received a lower vote while Seventeen and Everglow/Weki Meki seemed to have more success, preferences. Biased because I like Twice? In the first round Chaeyeon won the round, YooA almost did it, and I didn't even know them before this game. Anybody can score points.

About the specific theme you claimed that the round was specifically tailored. Album covers was one of the challenges before knowing we would have had any Red Velvet participant, and then I always do my best to come up with interesting ideas and possibilities. I saw @Kimbo mentioning DIA for album covers and after checking them I was happy because they seemed really nice, so while one of my many plans was indeed to have multiple Red Velvet's submission, anybody could have participated and anybody could have won, even if we had zero Red Velvet's submissions.

There aren't money in play and I'm being as transpent as possible about this, I'm sorry you had to feel this way.

I wasn't taking about rv or other groups. Rv don't always have idols in them. I was referring to twice. We were just lucky that rv also happens to have their members in some of their album covers as well.

And lol if you put them up first instead of second, that would have been a bit of a stretch. 'Almost' is better. The reason why I think this way, is your explanations to it always being your preference, as opposed to us figuring out any objective criteria. I understand its your preference, I just think your preference is biased. More so bc of the difference in scores rather than the scores themselves.

I should have specified "best looking album cover - colorful/one color based" and that would have helped. Lesson learned. But trust me when I say I'm not being biased, nor putting any effort into that, because the very last thing I want to do is ruin a game I'm making for the people to enjoy.

In the pm, we were discussing whether you were looking for neat or just lots of colours. If you had told us, we had so many more options. Specially if you had told us one color based is totally okay(you said one colour dominant which is different).

The term 'colorful' specifically means lots of (or varied) colours. You asked us to follow the theme title and we did. But looks like that's not even what it was judged on.

Again, I'm sorry you had to feel this way. Send me a private message if you have anything else to say about that topic.

Let's go back to the actual on-going round.

Wendy being out is a travesty

Nah that's all, baymax said the judging point already. Im sorry if you felt bad andrea. Not my intention, my wording always sounds rude when I have to speak up about an issue alone. Good luck with your game<3<3

I can see so many nice vocalists all around the 4 teams.
Just to make it clearer, three eliminations and the winning team gets to choose the challenge for the next round.

 

[Andrea]

A message about round 3, Higher Notes:
Note: For this round I want to see how powerful vocalists can be in a song that I'm actually going to enjoy, a song that wants me to play it on repeat. I cannot tell for sure about what the other judge (@BlueNose) is going to look for but this is personal note about what I am expecting. Good luck!

 

[Andrea]

As you may have guessed already, even if there was a tie between Hwa and Seraphim, the second judge was chosen to be @BlueNose because Seraphim had said role just the previous round.

The main rule is: "At the end of each round a number of contestants will be eliminated, then the eliminated player who scored the most points will become a judge, with me, for the next round."
The adjustment is: "The same team cannot have a judging member two times in a row."

Losing your leader is a huge blow

There is no one to like your posts
There is no one to decide for you even if you have decided already

So dramatic.
Leaders remain leaders as it should, they are simply unable to use their idol for the challenge. We know about the lucky gif, lol.

Good luck for round 3!

Rule adjustments:
- A third judge from a team will be appointed, casually, to vote only on the second judge's team selection. I have decided to make this update in order to always have a second opinion about each submission. In this case, the same team can have a judge consecutively but the member must be different.

Note:
- In case of a tie to win/pass the round, both teams will win/pass. In case of a tie to lose the round, both teams will lose.

Please understand that this game has been created without taking into account any other event done earlier, therefore it is only natural for rules to be added/changed/removed throughout the game. I am always willing to make changes as it is part of the process, especially if they improve the game.

Thank you for your time.
