Can someone remind me how scoring works?
Last place gets 1 pt, then each place after that gets +1 pt. Until 1st gets 13 pts or however many are in this walrus.

I think thatās everyone - apologies if not.
I definitely missed someone because I have 10 entriesā¦ Oops. Nothing personal!
First of all. Thank you all for participating. I really appreciate the time and effort everyone put in although some of you startedā¦ not great. Just a note on the methodologyā¦ Iām probably inconsistent as I donāt have set guidelines on what I was looking for in my categories. Just remember itās all fun and games and the points donāt matter.
In last place we have a shared artist. Unfortunately for you both I am not a huge fan of The Beastie Boys. Some songs are fine, but you both chose ones thatā¦ arenāt? Itās cool we all make bad choices sometimes. I actually really like the sample you chose but the hip hop song wasnāt it at all for me. If you would have picked Kendricks āIā with the same sample you probably would have hit the podium. 1 point for you.
In 9th place with 2 points:
Yupā¦ the other beastie boys song. I felt like I was getting my head kicked in with a trashcan on both of these songs. Gif below to help you understand. As my first girlfriend saidā¦ Itās not you, itās me.
In 8th place with 3 points:
This one was a little too on the nose for me. Itās like you almost googled āfamous rap songs and itās coverā. I donāt mind the song or the cover and you are getting penalized for a lack of imagination. Again, itās probably not you, its me. Actually this one might be on you.
I canāt sleep.
Almost picked a Beastie Boys song myself.
In 7th place with 4 points:
This one was unique in that the sample is one of those songs that Iāll never get tired of. I still listen to it frequently. The issue was that the main song just didnāt it for me. The sample was a little underwhelming and the rapping was ānasallyā like I really want to give that guy a yearly prescription of Flonase.
Thanks for the @ and the low score. Oh well. I guess I should know better than to pick well-known songs, but when it comes to loving both the song and the sampled song, this was really the one for me. I especially liked how it embraced and celebrated the song it was sampling rather than just taking a beat that you might not even recognize as being sampled without the internet or encyclopedic knowledge.
I avoided the nodium on the category I knew the least about. this makes me happy
8th should get 3 pts. 7th gets 4 pts
ETA: Curse test
Forgot to @ you and shit on your songā¦ Yikes!
Numbers are hard. Edited and thanks.
Happy to avoid the nodium
In 6th place with 5 points:
The next 3 were all really close and I actually had this one higher on my first rankings. Unfortunately for you, I chose today to reveal and not Friday.
Iāll probably be adding both of these to my Spotify, but the combo together missed some āsaucinessā that some of the others had.
