`--=< music compo #26 >=----------------------------------=< the new wave >=--'

  -----< info >---------------------------------------------------------------

     The Trackering is divided into 2 weeks, here's the info :

   ---- compo ----  Week : 1

     The Trackering is held on channel #tt, every first and third
    Saturday->Sunday of every month at 01.00AM CET / 07.00PM EST. I'll be
    offering a samplepack in 1 hour, if you get them I'll declare you an
    contestant. If you weren't there in time, you can always get the sample-
    pack from ftp.cdrom.com /pub/demos/incoming/music/tt, just make sure you 
    get the most recent pack. In the samplepack there is a file called 
    deadline.txt, this shows the date and time when the deadline is.
    Right after you get the pack you can begin tracking.

     I want all the tunes back before the following weekend, same time(1am
    cet/7pm est). I'll be on IRC as axl_ (of course) at that time so you can
    just dcc them to me, or mail it to 'axelsson@freenet.hut.fi' with either
    UUEncode or MIME. This is just the deadline so you can send your tune
    to me during the week.
    
    * Note : TT is on AnotherNet,
             so connect your irc-client to one of these AnotherNet servers:

  		- neato.org
		- irc.netnation.com
                - serve.org

   ---- voting ---- week : 2

     The vote-pack will be out 1-2 hours after the compo-deadline and
    the pack will be available on IRC and on FTP :
    - ftp.cdrom.com  /pub/demos/incoming/music/tt/votepacks
    - ftp.arosnet.se /demo/musicdisk
    - filename : tt##vote.zip - where ## is the number of the contest.

     Everyone can judge the TT compo, but a contestant must judge it or 
    he'll be disqualified.

     The voting system is a scale from 0-9. There will be a vote-form included
    in the vote-pack, which is almost self-explainatory :), If you need
    help on how to vote, then just mail me.

     The results will be out 1 week after the compo has ended, it'll be
    distributed on IRC and in the next sample-pack. You can also get it from
    ftp.cdrom.com /pub/demos/incoming/music/tt/results
