:: "Introduction"
:: GD / Hornet - gd@ftp.cdrom.com
Through the collective efforts of the organizers, entrants, and voters, we
are now prepared to begin the round 2 voting. The round 1 voting process was
used to determine the top 15 rookie and top 25 veteran entries in MC4. Round
2 voting will determine the exact rank of these finalist entries.
During Round 1 voting, voters wrote song comments on their vote forms. We
will make these song comments available to the public after we are able to
process them.
This is the last phase of MC4. After the results are delivered on the first
day of September, our job will be done. Your job will be to continue making
the best music you can.

:: "Voterform Editing Utility"
:: GD / Hornet - gd@ftp.cdrom.com
_____Introduction
Trixter has provided for us a program which will easily allow users to edit
their voter form while playing an MC4 entry in Cubic Player or Impulse
Tracker. This program will make the voting process easy and efficient.
_____Program Use
The program is a TSR, which means it is run from the commandline and it
remains in memory. Once a user loads this program, they can run Cubic Player
or Impulse Tracker, play a song, and bring up the edit window while the song
is playing.
Rename your vote form to reviews.txt as this is the file that the editor will
open.
_____Limitations
For this program to work, users must be using Cubic Player (v1.6 or v1.666)
or Impulse Tracker v2.04 (MC4 Version). When it loads, it will occupy 50k of
conventional memory.
The editor window can not be loaded from the commandline. You must load the
editor window (with the ALT-+ keypress) from within Cubic Player or Impulse
Tracker.
The editor can only hold 32k of text. If you run out of room, split your
voter form into two parts and combine them before submission.
_____Conclusion
This utility is included in the archive "mc4notes.zip" which is included in
the "mc4vrnd2.zip" file. See the "Files" section above for information on
where to obtain this file. We recommend using this program to make MC4
voting easy.
