Principal recording done - now to mix till 8:58 local time.

What's the rule niv - do we click send by the deadline or does it need to be in your inbox by the deadline?

Nur Ein!!!!

Just got back from New York, tweaked the mix and sent it in. I'm not a judge (obviously), but I'm guessing you have a little extra time tonight because Niveous is tied up with this whole live show thing.

What I mean to say is yeah, take all the time you need, mix all night and fall asleep with your head on your keyboard having forgotten to send your song....HAHAHAHAHA. I'm talking to you Tiny Robots!

No, but seriously, I think you have some leeway. Now I'm going to bed.

In.

And there appear to be no "no-shows."

This round is going to be intense.

Nur Ein!!!!

I don't know what the status is on cover art this week, but if Niveous is half as desperate as he was last week, this should do nicely:

No I was being serious... When he said Mountain Standard, I figured Canada didn't do the daylight savings thing. I apologize if my assumption is incorrect, though -- I thought we were the only goofy country that did that.

Gee, I hope the judges get more listening time than we do. The suspense is killing me here.

Is there no other judge to whom you can forward the songs to upload the files? I would offer to do it again, like last year, but since I'm not a judge this year, people may think that was not OK.

Why not, it's just FTP'ing. So you'll have the songs a little longer than everyone else? I'll send you the tunes. Thanks, Sam.

Additionally, I hope you have considered forwarding the e-mails with attachments to the other judges in order to allow them to begin listening.

What if he inserts nazi stanic backmasking into our songs - secretely biasing the judges against us.

That would bias the judges against us, right?

This is proof that you weren't at the show last night. The XTRG set was all about the backward masking.
