ST 21 Results

Round 1

ST21 Round 1 Results
The votes are in, and one contestants's vintage video game tribute captured the hearts of the judges. Your Round 1 winner is:

Glennny

Hanky Code takes second place, with GFS close behind in third. Read on for the full Round 1 results!

But before getting to those full results, I want to make sure everyone is aware of the Shadow Reinstatement rule. Very often, for whatever reason, one or more qualifying competitors will fail to submit a song by the deadline. Rather than leave those spots unfilled, we may reinstate shadow entries from contestants who were eliminated in previous rounds, as long as they meet the challenge and have been submitted by the deadline. So get those shadows in!

With that out of the way, here are the full results:

The following artists have scored below the threshold and have been eliminated, but as we know, might be reinstated if someone else misses the deadline:

Mandrake
Berkeley Social Scene
Boffo Yux Dudes
Brain Weasels
Temnere
Jeff Walker
Frédéric Gagné
Eric Novak
West of Vine

ST21 Round 3 Results
The votes are in from our judges, and here's something exciting: For all four of the highest-ranked contestants, this is their first time making their way to the Final Round! There's only one Round 3 winner, though; after five tournaments worth of consistently respectable showings, The Dutch Widows take their first victory!

Hot Pink Halo couldn't quite manifest gold with her song, and will have to settle for silver. But she gets to share the medal with her identically-scoring BFF Stacking Theory. As smooth as ever, Tunes By LJ slides into fourth place.
