ID Contest 43 - Christmas Time!
One week has passed and I have finally finished the making up of a new ID contest! We have extremely warm winter here in Prague so far (almost no snow this year) but from the look at the diary is clear that Christmas are right behind the door. But Xmas or not, I know you lot would like to spend some free time with your favourite competition!
So, here it is...
Rules are simple and I have made no change to them as they seem to work perfectly. 80 tracks, 3 points for the full ID, 1 point for every correct artist, title and/or remix. As for the tricky club mixes, remixes and original versions, you will have to submit the correct one (if there is any!) to score a full ID (yeah, even if it�s evident that it can�t be anything else than the damn radio edit! 
)
Hints or not?
Well, I�ve made the contest easy (at least I think so!) so I guess there will be no need to give them 'officialy'. I will hint you in the PMs, though, as usual.
Contest ends next year!
But don�t worry, it won�t last 365 days
The 7th of January 2007 is the date!
1.Download the samples (in 128kbps) right here:

2.Submit your answers via PM (as many times as you like).
3.Have fun! 
This is easy?
Where's the warehouse techno, man? Oldschool rave? House classics? Not even a touch of acid trance in there, either. You forgot about this demographic.
and also, please provide a version with 64kbps samples for the people on lower speeds.

That�s exactly what I was trying to achieve with this sample selection.
Day One
Camwin - 36
limin_li - 28
Subey - 3
Unique IDs
Camwin - 4
limin_li - 3
Three contestants join the party on the first day.
Camwin takes the lead with 36 points and limin_li watches his back not far from him.
Subey seems to be happy with his 3 little points.
Camwin also leads the Unique IDs table but that�s not so hard on the first day.
Come on guys, I know you can do better!
Hey, I could get third place. 
Downloaded samples an maybe I would have chances to get those 30 points.
Day Two
GroundLine - 38
Camwin - 36
DarkMemoria - 32
limin_li - 28
Subey - 5 (+2)
Unique IDs
GroundLine - 4
limin_li - 3
DarkMemoria - 3
Camwin - 2 (-2)
Two more competitors entered the field! And of them (GroundLine) managed to land on the first place in both tables! Camwin even loses half of his uniques thank to him. DarkMemoria starts on the bronze spot with his first submission. Subey is the only one who improves his score from the first day!
The differences between the points are really small so keep seaching, googling and listening - it could be the other way round tomorrow!
The most fully ID�d samples are 13 and 41 which are both known by 3.
I also know #13, but can't put my finger on it. 
I'm gonna listen properly and take my time at this one

Chittle - 49
DarkMemoria - 43 (+11)
GroundLine - 38

Subey - 9 (+4)
Unique IDs
DarkMemoria - 5 (-1) (+3)
Chittle - 5
GroundLine - 4
limin_li - 2 (-1)

Chittle is the only newcomer today and... *drumroll* takes the lead!DarkMemoria improves his score nicely, leaves GroundLine behind and claims the silver spot! Subey gains nice 4 points.
As for the uniques, DM gets three first but then comes Chittle and shoots one down. limin_li loses one because of the newcomer as well.
63 is fully ID�d by five, 13 & 41 by 4.
I knew Camwin's lead wouldnt last very long, hehehehe!

I received a text msg from Paul last night. It was a little difficult to understand, but apparently a large group of americans went to Prague looking for Santa Claus over Christmass because they were told he was in charge of the Czech Republic.
Needless to say they felt more than a little foolish when they found out that the Czech president wasn't 'Santa Claus', but was actually 'Vaclav Klaus'.
All wasn't lost though, as Paul decided to organize a special concert for the children who had come all that way. The planning involved took all of his time so he hasn't been able to update the ID contest.
Unfortunately the concert turned out to be a complete disaster. The children were hoping to see The Wiggles(tm), and instead got a PvD and Tiesto double bill. To make matters worse by the time PvD took to the stage at 3:00am most of the kids had fallen asleep hours earlier...
The next morning a large mob had gathered outside his door, fearing for his safety Mr. Andrews fled to the Giant mountains where he fell in love with a beautiful polish girl named Basia.
On behalf of all of TA I wish them love and happiness in the new life they've found together.
Great story Anyways...

Unique IDs

Chittle - 1 (-4)
Finally some serious movement in our contest! First, GroundLine gets 15 more points and the first place, but this is not going to last long - benjamin appears and totally pwns the place with his first submission! Another new contestant is THE_Chris who starts... well.. where is he supposed to. Subey improves his score again and is not the last one for the first time. Camwin is attacking Chittle�s third spot!
Chittle loses almost all of his uniques and finds himself at the bottom of the table. GL gets 2, loses 2 and stays on 4. Similar thing happens to Camwin. benjamin lands in the middle of the table with 3 uniques.
