EpicMafia Idol 7

Hello everyone! EM Idol is back by popular demand! (or popular enough anyway) and it has tokens involved! (*le gasp!)

First place gets 80 tokens ; Second place gets 40 tokens ; Third place gets 20 tokens

Please read the Rules/Info doc at the bottom for more information about rules, the process, etc.

SEASON COMPLETED: THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Twist: A dance that was inspired by rock and roll music and what you should be doing with all these great entries and talent this season.

Speech/Intro Hello Everyone! So this is it, we've come to the end of this season of EpicMafia Idol. First of all I would like to thank everyone who showed interest and got me to start this up again in the first place and most of that comes from the contestants this season!

This would be nothing if it weren't for the very talented contestants sharing their time and vocals week after week. It has been incredible and a real honour to hear your voices and gave me something to look forward to. I know it wasn't perfect but I hope you still enjoyed your time in the competition no matter how long or short (ahem volta).

Thank you also to the audience who also drive this event, it is always a pleasure to hear someone who didn't compete tell me that they enjoyed following the competition. I am glad people enjoy listening to the entries as much as I do.

Last but not least my judges of course, who were all brand-new to the judging game and though we lost some on the way, the rest did not lose steam and continued on with me anyway through the little rough patches and I am thankful for that.

NOW, without further ado! Based on the final entry as well as the body of work this entire season. HERE ARE THE FINAL RESULTS FOR EPICMAFIA IDOL SEASON 7.

IN THIRD PLACE....

Song: How Far I'll Go
Movie: Moana
Original Singer: Auli'i Cravalho
Notes: I apologize for my laundry going in the second half of the song, it decided to get loud for no reason. In addition, I just want to say how honored I am to be part of the top 6. Thank you to Luis and the judges and my fellow contestants for being great. This song choice was personal as it struck very close to home. The lyrics are all about revealing a secret that you keep inside and the turmoil you face when following a dream. For me, growing up in a conservative christian home and being essentially put down the path of becoming a leader via boy scouts was the dream my parents had for me (nothing against scouts as I did get valuable lessons from being a member). To instead come out as gay, pursue being an author, and forging my own path was intimidating to say the least. In these lyrics, I can relate to an animated character which shows me just how mature and far animation has come in recent years and how powerful songs can be in movies. Thank you all for reading and supporting. Good luck to everyone :)

Hey everyone! I am happy to officially declare RESULTS ARE UP!

There are a few things though to note:

1) CONGRATS TO VERUMBARK FOR WINNING THE ROUND (AGAIN), well deserved

2) I brought in a guest judge to fill in for the two missing judge entries this round (which is why results are delayed)

3) You all did great, I understand it was a busy week + a twist and I appreciate you all pulling through ^_^

We will also be accepting jazz versions of songs like idk, what PostModern Jukebox does

If it's okay with verum... I won't be super strict with the genre this round. If it's sounds jazzy, I'll probably accept it even though it's not explicitly under jazz.

Note the round is a little bit shorter than before, I hope to keep it around this timeline as to minimize overlap with the summer months. Get started with those doo doobuehoduoau scat scat scat!

Also there is a TWIST this round. Please keep that in mind with your song choices

Alright sorry for the delay! It's mostly because I was doing my last minute guest entry :^)

RESULTS ARE UP!

CONGRATS TO VERUMBARK FOR BEING THE ROUND WINNER!

You all did amazing jobs this week. ^_^ Next round details will be posted once they have been determined!

I also apologize for the missing judge entry >.<

Alright guys, I just added a new link to a copy of the EMI results, this one will stay open to the public so people can view the past entries from the previous rounds anytime (crazy amirite). However, it will not have any of the entries of the current round :^ )

Oh also two days until the deadline! Good luck on all your exams if you still have some left. If not, congrats for finishing them!

Thanks for the theme pick Tricksterer! I'm once again fighting not to get sick. I also have a really busy week/weekend, so here's what I came up with in the hopes that the rest of the time I'll be resting my voice.

Round: Broadway
Show: Les Miserables
Song: Bring Him Home-Jean Valjean

There is 20 seconds of silence at the end of this, I can't chop it, I can't fix it, and I can't edit it. Thanks for that one smule lol.

In addition, I believe someone asked me to do Jean Valjean, so...there you go :P

Hey guys! So results will be posted tomorrow, Wednesday. Unfortunately one of the judges dropped out. I prefer not to bring in a judge in the middle of the comp but if the contestants still want a 6th judge I'll find someone

Also I think I'll mention this now but 4 people did not submit this round so only 1 person who did submit will be eliminated :^)
