$:`.     this special competition was a great success, despite the whole   .':$
$: $   load of problems i've had with my isp, with the voting program, and $ :$
$` $   so on. i will not go into details here, there is a file called      $ '$
:  $   'cr09news.txt' which is distributed in this voting pack and in the  $  :
:  $   c r u e l i z a t i o n  9  sample pack.  please read it, for it    $  :
`  $   has vital information about both voting (on 8), tracking for 9 and  $  '
   $   about the results of  c r u e l i z a t i o n s  7 and 6. if for    $
   $   some reason you do _not_ have this file, feel sure to e-mail me at  $
   $   the addresses shown in the end of this file, and request the news   $
   $   file. i only want to mention that many, many changes will be made   $
   $   to  c r u e l i z a t i o n's  both organizing and form, so stay    $
   $   tuned :D.                                                           $
   $     as for the songs - naturally when you allow people 5 external     $
   $   samples, the quality often raises. we got some very good songs in   $
   $   that pack. i do understand that it is way big, but it is less than  $
   $   i have expected it to be, and i did not see the need to split the   $
   $   voting, since it is done pretty quickly and does not pose too hard  $
   $   a task. to achieve a greater song compression i've used RAR solid   $
   $   multimedia compression to pack the songs - it's a self-extract file $
   $   'cr8songs.exe', so you do not need any external unpacker. just run  $
   $   the file in the directory you opened the votepack to, and it will   $
   $   extract the songs.                                                  $
   $     as you can see, we are back to text form voting. see the file     $
   $   'cr09news.txt' for details, but the main reason is the voting       $
   $   program had proved buggy on some systems, and i'm recoding it       $
   $   almost completely. aside from bugfixing, many other changes will    $
   $   be implemented.                                                     $
   $                                                                       $
   $                                                                       $

   $        remember, the voting scale is 0-20, 0 the lowest and 20 the    $
   $      highest.  your vote for yourself (if you _do_ vote for yourself  $
   $      that is)  obviusly won't be taken into the calculation :) .      $
