tournament Golden Hit: Season 5 ⚜️ Congrats to fountain!

[Aurora]

 

Order in the court, Hitmakers!  Judgement Day is swiftly approaching, but there's still time to submit for Round 3's Judge's Choice challenge. ⚖️
Remember, if you've only just discovered Golden Hit or simply didn't wish to participate in other rounds, fear not: sign-ups are still open—just submit!

 

With that, it's time to present the top three of last round's Spooky Tunes challenge with their bonus prizes: the Hit Tokens!

I've reviewed the requests from our trio of top writers for the week, and done my best to grant them for embossment.

 

 

Celebrating a third place triumph with “Sundiving” and its enlightening 8.363 score:

@worldwide angel

Here is your Bronze Hit Token embossed with your ATRL username and Lisa of BLɅϽKPIИK.

Congratulations! This is your first Hit Token of S5, and eighth Hit Token of Golden Hit overall!

(I figured you meant Lisa from BLɅϽKPIИK through the context clue of your previous request being Jisoo, but a little more info would be appreciated next time! )

 

 

Celebrating a second place success with “The Sentinel” and its infectious 8.413 score:

hurricane326

Here is your Silver Hit Token embossed with your requested text.

Congratulations! This is your first Hit Token of S5, and eighth Hit Token of Golden Hit overall!

(Seeing as you literally just wrote "idk lol" in the Hit Token field on the submission form... well, here you go! To arrange a remake, submit a request on the R3 form. )

 

 

Celebrating a first place finish with “Killer Whales of the Zombie Strain; "Cognisance"” and its apprehensible 9.03 score:

@fountain

Here is your Golden Hit Token embossed with your ATRL username and "A big fat whale!!" (with a jellyfish).

Congratulations! This is your second Hit Token of S5, and second Hit Token of Golden Hit overall (excluding your judge's tokens)!

(Thank you for being very descriptive in the Hit Token field! I went with your initial request of "A big fat whale!!", but added a little jellyfish as a bonus. Enjoy! 🐳🪼)

 

I hope you all enjoy your Hit Tokens as much as I did making them! Feel free to use them as a forum avatar if you wish, or just let them be a reminder of your time in Golden Hit—ultimately the choice is yours, and if for whatever reason you are dissatisfied with your token or simply wish to change the embossed graphic/text please contact me and I can arrange a remake. Remember, the top three writers of each round will earn their own Hit Token just like the three above, so make sure to submit each week for the best chance to claim one of these bonus prizes.

@Invisibility – It’s a Love Thing

I have to admit, I’m a bit of a horror movie hater so a lot of these references probably flew right over my head. I’ve also never seen The Thing, so my background on the topic is five solid minutes of Google images and Wikipedia. Regardless, I absolutely get the folky campy Halloween vibes. Halloween is the perfect opportunity to write a camp song like this, because you can take something as grotesque as a parasitic alien and write a cutesy love song about it. The way you described the narrator’s alien lover with such blind devotion was compelling - “bitentacle” in particular was really creative. I also really liked the way you structured your chorus, always ending with the catchy, commercial “it’s a love thing” hook. Having not seen the film, there were a few references that didn’t fully connect for me, but I can tell this was a lot of fun to put together, and I’m glad you gave us something with so much personality rather than not submitting. This song is proof that “fun” writing can still be good writing. Excited to see what you come up with for this round (in the next 18 hours)!
