Is this a reaction to how people vote or how they submit entries for the 4th contest?

Both.

I've already submitted everything.

Except for "No. 6 Interesting Video."

I really can't imagine what could be interesting in such a short timeframe. At first, I thought about submitting "Peculiarities of Sealing Jars During Autoclaving." It would be useful if someone wanted to make compote, for example. But the video turned out to be 15 minutes long. Any normal video on "how to tie a tie" is at least 5-7 minutes long. Pranks? That's about 15 minutes. How to groom a Pomeranian? 8 minutes.

In general, I can't say that there's anything interesting in life that's shorter than three and a half minutes.

...

Okay, I think I've got an idea. I'm going to go choose one.

"You can rate either the first dance or both, as you wish."

Lately, I've been sending in a lot of girls with ears and tails, even though I didn't notice this fetish in myself before... I think it's all thanks to Rev's clever choice of themes for the contests.

Just Dance — 5, I am quite fond of Lady Gaga, but she has much better tracks and videos. To be honest, I was even thinking of submitting another one of her songs.
【大炎上】営業中にお客様にバレないようにこっそり踊ってみた — 5, I imagined myself in that guy's place, and I would have been just as surprised.
The Bottle Dance — 6, it's like a normal Jewish wedding.
If I Could Change Your Mind — 5, the ladies are dancing and singing. Not great, but not terrible either.
Just Some Casual Electro Swing Shuffle — 4, the song is okay, but overall, I found it boring to watch. I don't really like this kind of video, like random dances by unknown people from TikTok or Shorts.
Lemon Tree — 7, the song is great, but not very danceable. Although, I guess at some 90s discos, someone might be dancing to it.
La Camisa Negra
  
Ecstatic Vibrations Totally Transcendent — 10, if your party doesn't have dance battles like this, don't invite me.
Dancing Funeral Coffin Meme — 10, this is a classic

The song is great, but not very danceable.

Musical/dance. I can hardly imagine what you could dance to, except for waltzes or something; I immediately dismissed that option.

Psychological engineering of Hvshniks through experience and "hurmas."

Musical/dance. I can barely imagine what you could dance to, besides waltzes and the like; I immediately dismissed that option.

So, that's why the rating isn't low, right?

So, that's why the rating isn't too low, right?

Sorry, I made a mistake By the way, I'm surprised how quickly you looked at everything and provided a template for the design, it's a record.

The secret to success is simple — my daughter is asleep, and I really don't want to have to watch it in fragments later

【Major Uproar】I secretly tried dancing while customers weren't looking - Funny - 7
The Bottle Dance (1971) - If there's no water in the tap, it means



- 5
HAIM - If I Could Change Your Mind - Doesn't resonate at all - 5
Just Some Casual Electro Swing Shuffle - At first, I thought her hairstyle was from the 2010s, and then I looked at the video's publication date. I don't feel anything either - 5
Fools Garden - Lemon Tree - Hmm, nothing either - 5
Juanes - La Camisa Negra - What did they do to the black guy? I've heard it before. The song feels like something is missing, and because of that, I can't rate it higher - 8
Ecstatic Vibrations Totally Transcendent - Well, it's definitely totally transcendent - 6
Dancing Funeral Coffin Meme - Fun and danceable, nothing more to say - 8

Revan said that the main criterion is dancing in the video (and it’s even better if it features performers or something like that), so I’m mainly evaluating that. Otherwise, I could have sent a clip from a concert recording where everyone is jumping to the music.

Just Dance — 4 There are dances, but there are quite a few. I remembered Sia while watching. Although the track isn’t very danceable for ordinary people, the video is…
【大炎上】営業中にお客様にバレないようにこっそり踊ってみた - 4 when Lock came to a Kazakh cafe. That is, could I have sent a short video, posting it in this format? 😒 As if it doesn’t fit the contest…
The Bottle Dance (1971) - 5 when… okay, I won’t joke. There are dances, but they take a while to pick up.
HAIM - If I Could Change Your Mind - The song isn’t very danceable, in my opinion, but I don’t have any dance videos/clips at all, and this is, in my opinion, the most danceable clip of those I remember. Otherwise, I could have sent MCR or something else (there was a French version, but there are even fewer matches to the criteria, but the song is better, + a dancing JACKET).
Just Some Casual Electro Swing Shuffle - 6 There is a dance, but it could be shorter, because the movements are simply repeated and there are quite a few of them.
Fools Garden - Lemon Tree - 1 There are no dances, the song is not danceable at all. + They have many better songs, and even some ballads would be more danceable than this one (if you dance a slow dance, of course).
Juanes - La Camisa Negra - 5 There are dances, or maybe not.
Ecstatic Vibrations Totally Transcendent - 6 Dude. Why not this one? The track was my option for the instrumental contest, but I didn’t send it without Siva.

Dancing Funeral Coffin Meme - 4 At the beginning, it was kind of lively, but then the movements became too gloomy and lazy. It lacks drive for a high score, as with the others

Revan said that the main criterion is dancing in the video (and it's even better if it's performers or something like that).

🤔Are you talking about this?

Revan, in the next competition, is the visual aspect or the dance track itself more important?

The former is more important, but in combination with the latter. After all, we are evaluating the video, not just the music.

Or you were clarifying in a private message...

Technically, Arandor evaluates both videos and music. But he was very critical of Lemon Tree.

Overall, the criteria for evaluating the contest are subjective. Some people emphasize the overall danceability, others focus on the dance itself, and others on the track and its visuals as a whole.

No, Arandor only evaluated the danceability, without a video. I just looked at the other contestants this morning, and if I really misunderstood the contest rules, then I will evaluate the others accordingly. Because I was sure that any MV with good visuals would be suitable.
