International Music Festival 37: Semi-final 2 Results

^that's what happens when the host fucks up the timeslot on purpose for a potential winner. Really mature. Don't count on votes from me in the final

like if it wasn't clear that you did it on purpose. I asked you like 3 times to use a certain timeslot but of course you don't listen to me and fuck up my results. I think that this song deserves at least to be a finalist and I'm sure I'm not the only one. this song won over 47 other songs which most of them could pass to the final easily *if the host wouldn't choose a bad timeslot on purpose while being asked not to*, plus this song finished in the top 3 of another song contest recently and won all the votings in my NS. I'm not going to vote in the final for various reasons, one of them is the fact I lost my interest in this contest after your non-considerate decisions and the fact that you ruined my chances on purpose. if you would use the right timeslot after all the times I asked you to, you would've received my votes for both the Semi and the Final. And I don't really care about your strikes, I'm not planning on coming back either way.

I'm deeply sorry for not only caring about timeslots, which in the end, indicate nothing at all. Just to name a different example, Bhutan didn't have the best timeslot in it's continental final and yet managed to qualify. I don't care what you think about your song nor your chances. The other users have made their decision and the United States is not among the top ten nations, so there is nothing to criticize about the people's say. Further to that, I'm not responsible for results this specific song got in different contests. I could name numerous songs that haven't been doing well in IMF and later on even managed to win the forum's biggest contest. If you think that I did anything on purpose, then you don't know me at all. This contest is based on equality for all participants. I know this situation hasn't been handled in the best way possible. However, do you think it takes no time to host this competition, especially when there are continental finals with a total amount of more than 60 nations to handle, with each of them having different requests. Obivously, this is my task to get along with it, I know that, yet it's a lot to accomplish when basically doing all the main tasks alone for years. In addition to that, the forum isn't my number one priority set - I have a real life, I have my GCSE's which I am currently undergoing and it is my job to get them done in the first place and not covering timeslot or other requests of little importance. I do set priorities, and when I decide to do it the way I want to, then it's my fair decision after all to do what I think is best. Noone is forced to agree with what I do or the way I decide, just like noone is forced to participate or follow the contest. The entire thing is made on optional basis, just like my abilities to handle stuff are limited as well. I'm not able to cover stuff 24/7 and sorry to say that, but I do not remember everything I write down or want to make possible. Nevertheless, it's just wrong that I am responsible for this failure, or if you say I am, I honestly don't mind it, just because of the fact that I had different things to do and I am never gonna apologize for doing what I want to. And just like that, I don't care if you mind your strikes or not, but the contest is based on rules you agree with when participating edition after edition. There is no justification for breaking those rules, no matter if there have been mistakes or not. It is your decision on what you want to do and I will in any case live with it, as I have to. But don't expect me to change my way of work regarding this contest. It got this contest to 37 editions, and I never said to be perfect - I'm not - but without months of time I spent on this, with way more fights than I wanted to have, IMF still made it's way and it's not gonna change or even end because of one mistake, which never has been intended to be done, nor been a personal decision.
