For anybody else just looking here on the boards, the results were posted to the Nur Ein site this morning:

Personally I really miss there being a comprehensive thread with all the key updates (titles/challenges, and results) in one place, as had been done for all the other contests, e.g.:

viewtopic.php?t=12869

I liked that the winner and the folks eliminated were listed separately from the rankings and I liked the grids showing the overall rankings and the individual judges rankings in a concise, easy to scan way.

For anyone interested I’ve been making some videos of my process for this go at Nur Ein. I know these are long, so no pressure to watch. I’m kinda using it as a way to improve my editing skills and try some ways of making videos that I haven’t done before. The week of this song I was also working on an artwork call-out from the print studio where I’m a member, and that’s also documented in the video.

I played my "Atmosphere" entry at the latest meeting of my local accordion club. Another attendee caught a bit on video.

The acoustics in that place sounded great - is it an enclosed alcove with echoes?

Yep, it's a small outdoor courtyard with buildings on all sides. A lot of fun to play in!
