Image 1 — Another close win! This time is 'Easy to Love' that surpasses the iconic Bella's theme, and will face Watching from the Stars in the next round. Not an easy opponent, but nothing is impossible for Josy.

Another close win! This time is 'Easy to Love' that surpasses the iconic Bella's theme, and will face Watching from the Stars in the next round. Not an easy opponent, but nothing is impossible for Josy.

Now, we have a very particular challenge. Two different genres that serves as setting for two of the most intense and full of suspense moments in the game.

One side, the truth about the nerds, and Quinn starting her revenge for Rio. She had very, very few important people she cared about in her life. Don't you dare touch them.

Against... How can I describe it? As a Bella fan I was shocked during this scene, even though I didn't know what Tremolo and the others found in that room. The look of Tremolo, and the one of Bella especially, contribute in creating an atmosphere of anxiety and terror. The cherry on top was... The fucking cliffhanger.

My vote goes to "Your day is coming". I want so badly to know what happened during the last scene of episode 11, but the development of that whole Quinn scene accompanied by the music is just perfect.

Last one was a hard one, but it's a close win for Welcome to the Carnival! We all agree to be one (if not the) of the best intro for an episode, setting the perfect mood for Halloween!

Don't hate me now for the next challenge.

One on side... I don't even know what to say. Just look at her. Find a girl who look at you the way Josy looks at Tremolo, and you'll win in life. Easy to Love is just the perfect song for these two. It can refer to both of them: the way Josy fell in love with him but also how he, before, felt something for her for the easy way she is with people.

On the other side, the soundtrack that can be considered Bella's theme. You can hear it different occasions and interactions with her, with the lyrics of it describing the situation and relationship between Bella and Tremolo, but when it plays in these intimate moments.. men, we are on another level.

Even though my flair says Bella, my vote goes for "Easy to Love" about this Josy moment. Quoting someone: it was perfect. Perfect. Down to the last minute detail.

Couldn't expect less from a deep and moving piece like Watching from the Stars. The incredible voice of Beza contributes in touching our/your deepest parts, beating the powerful and extreme electro track of STRYV.

Now, things getting interesting. Second round of the left side.

After a long period of work on the mansion and finally restoring it, B&R must know that the DIKs are coming back, and that nothing can beat them. At the dorm party, Sit on the Crown starts to play, announcing their return.

But another party was even more awaited. A party to celebrate the Halloween and telling everyone (especially the jocks) that at the DIKs is where you have real fun. One of the best intro to an episode, even among all the AVNs out there. Welcome to the Carnival!

Don't dance too much with these. They're addicting.

Very few comments and votes, I don't know if it was for the unclear explanation of the "game" or because you just didn't read everything nor didn't want to participate, anyway the win goes to Rising to the Top. ⤵️

Onto the second round, on the other side of the table, with two very different soundtracks.

One, an energetic, electro dance piece that gets the MC college adventure started. Un unpredictable moment that, as for me, left me speechless and with a smile during the entire time, not just because I love the genre, but also for how the scene was built up.

Against probably one of the most intense, sad and dramatic moment of the game, where Jill tells you about her sister. The words in the song are very powerful and spot on, describing how she felt and feels about what happened. And that's why my personal vote goes to this one. In a way, it reminds me of a similar loss.

https://youtu.be/KYtN79-LTd8?is=ALRCvgWm6wWfugr-

What's your pick?

And of course if you don't like the contest and want me to stop, just say it.

I tried to make a video with the two soundtracks in it, only to discover that the subreddit does not allow to post videos, sigh. Anyway, here's the first round! Let me know if you can see/copy the YT link to listen to them.

-The hot, bad girl who doesn't want anything serious, telling you to not fall in love with her, who only wants it rough. You take control and decide for the first time to go gentle, causing her to doubt and question everything, like .. am I falling for him? Listening to the lyrics of it, "Rising to the Top" is the song of both of them, describing their complex "relationship". Just for fun, or there's something more?

https://youtu.be/hcFAJ33pT2w?is=Hf9NaLYQxMQ5Q\_k9

-Crossroads. Good memories. I remember staying in front of my pc like Tremolo during this scene, like it was the decision of my life. "The biggest choices in life may be of great risk and promise a great reward. The scariest part about making these big choices, is that you have no clue if there's a turning back, if the outcome wasn't what you desired"

It's up to you.

Hi everyone! Hope you're doing well and enjoying your playing with Being a DIK. I just came up with a new contest that I'd like to show you. We all know how DPC perfectly chose the soundtrack for this game, putting them in the right moment, happy or sad, dancing or relaxing.

This soundtrack topic is what the tournament is about. It's very simple: I would like you to vote what in your opinion is the best combination soundtrack/moment in game, by simply quoting it and why not, explaining the reasons. The highest number of votes (by comments, not upvotes) goes to the next stage, as you can see in the table. Of course, all the soundtracks play in different moments of the game, but they are iconic for those in the pictures.

I'm sure all of you have your favourite moments in game where the soundtrack hits just right, whether it gives you goosebumps, makes you sad or happy, makes you dance. Or where the lyrics are perfect for what is happening, describing the relationship between two or more characters, or maybe because it touches specific chords in your heart, in your life.

As previous contests, I know we can't be all in agreement for the votes, but I'm sure you'll like them in a way or another. I tried to put the best ones in a table of 16. Tough choices. In the picture you can see a thumbnail of them, and I know you already recognized most of them. But everyday (I hope), I'll prepare a versus graphic with the enlarged pictures, so you can see the moment and the name of the soundtrack in case you don't remember them (unlikely). Pictures are just a screenshot of a famous YT channel called Tremolo, I only cut out the picture and the title. And the challanges are random, mixing classic with dance music, there is no genre similarity.

Of course, if you don't like the idea you can just say so and I'll stop here, the participation is your choice. I just wanted to share with you another contest about this amazing game, waiting for Episode 12. Enjoy!

Guys, I totally forgot about this one! Scrolling my phone gallery I saw it and screamed: "oh shit, I forgot the best one!"

Not only you fuck his sister, but you provoke him by having fun with Heather! Talking about de*th wishes.
