A few things......

I cannot, for the life of me, figure out the preferences of this site's audience. (other than the obvious techno/trance lean) The songs that I thought would rise have stagnated and the songs that I thought would stagnate have risen.

For example, I uploaded two songs The Darkside and Total Destruction. Originally, I thought that Total Destruction had completely destroyed Darkside in terms of composition and "fear". However, Total Destruction fared horribly with the audience. There was a consistent low rating on that song that can't be attributed to just zero-bombing and the highest review that it recieved was an 8. That's not good when most of the reviews I have recieved so far were 9s and 10s. In comparison, Darkside did wonderfully with the audience although it was a loop made much earlier in my composing career (not much of a career considering that I've made NO MONEY in it.) and it was composed using mostly synth instruments as opposed to real instrument samples.

Another weird occurence was the rise of Bring It!. I originally thought that song was mediocre at best. By the time I had made that song, I had made so many battle ballads that that particular song had no effect on me at all anymore. However, the Newgrounds Audience overwhelmingly voted that as my best song. I don't have any problem with that, I just can't figure out why. I used a lot of crappy synth instruments in that song. And I really screwed up on the crash, which damn near blows out your eardrum.

To discuss a few other songs, Hell's Gate did well, which I actually expected. Upon it's finish, I recognized that that was clearly my best song. Edge of Dispair did great for the first 5 votes until 1 person zero bombed it and it never recovered. Defining Moment and Dive into Destiny did remarkably bad, considering that I really like both of those songs.

That's all I have to say. I know, it's a shitload. Oh well.
