Man, it's been a while since I joined one of these competitions. Should be good fun!

THE FINAL BOSSWORD CLUE: to play the song very very slowly, but not as slow as larghissimo

That concludes the mini-games. Now, participants have THREE DAYS left to submit their tracks!

Also, if you are late to submit, you will be penalized. For every hour you're late, you will receive 10% off your total score.

For example, if you're 2 hours late and your total score is 40, your final score will be 32.

DING DING DING! Dear bosses, your time has come to an end. You may rest now.

Once again, late submissions will not be penalized by the hour they're late.

The scores should be out sometime on the 14th of December.

Thank you for joining!

**TO EVERY PARTICIPANT**

Good job :)

I will be posting reviews in the nick of time, I had a lot to say so you may or may not appreciate it lol

I have listened to every entry and written notes down while I was going through em; I wished I *also* had enough time to write formal and orderly reviews for every single entry, but I couldn't give the same treatment to the last 6/7 in the submission thread.

If in the next two days you don't receive a review, DM me on __NewGrounds__ about it so that I can at least send you my random notes about it; BE WARNED, those are my unfiltered opinions about your song, so they can and they **will** be blunt.

Aight gonna get to it 👍

im gonna come back luka I promise you

Thanks to @JinZ for hosting this amazing event once again, as well as to my judgemates, and congrats for the podium finishers as well as all the participants!

I offer reviews upon requests, so if you want a personalized review from me, DM me!

Thanks to @JinZ for hosting and congrats to @Spadezer, and @ThePhreshPhrog
