Xedretinz Lododnz - Okay, this is one of those things where its so obvious that nobody would think of it. There are so many songs that could go for any sort of number you'd choose, and it's very open-ended, which would make it a good challenge. I could see this being an early-mid game challenge. Your entry explained what you meant just fine, but I would've appreciated a guideline for your challenge regardless.
lovesong - I think this is a bit similar to the Scene challenge, but for events rather than locations. I can still see this being a fun 2nd round challenge, though, just because the idea of setting up a playlist for an event would be a good way to ease people into the game. I like it!
Chill Bill - This is a bit edgy.  Although you did well for conveying the experience with the drug you chose, I don't see this working too well as a challenge. If it *were* to become a challenge, it'd probably be fairly late in the game, since I'd assume most people too immature for the topic of drugs would have already been eliminated.
Prismatic - This is what everyone instantly thinks of, it seems. Given it's a very practical challenge and would easily work, but it's just not the most unique. I could see this being around the middle of the game, given you might need to have some culture to make this work, but you can just run with stereotypes too, I suppose.
Sexy - This is what everyone instantly thinks of, it seems. Given it's a very practical challenge and would easily work, but it's just not the most unique. I could see this being around the middle of the game, given you might need to have some culture to make this work, but you can just run with stereotypes too, I suppose.
A Bomb - I don't know why nobody thought of this before. I love this idea! I think we'd have to ban Christmas from being used since it's too ****ing easy, but otherwise it would be a very fun challenge! You could even learn more about other holidays if the holidays were assigned to you, rather than you being able to choose. Would make a good mid-to-late game challenge! |

XL - I wasn't a big fan of it being 3 different trinities, and I think your entry is only achievable with numbers 1,2 and 3 and after that it comes too hard, or at least harder compared to those first 3 numbers. The last song is a miss for me, because whilst it slightly adresses individuality, it's more about coming together rather than individuality. Whilst this trinity wasn't bad, it was quite unexpected so props for that, but I don't see it ever returning.
Nonetheless, not a bad job
Lovesong - I really like the idea of this trinity, making a 'playlist' for a special occasion, and I could see this coming back. Your first two songs were really good choices, they fitted for me perfectly, especially the ambiance of those songs. The third song is a good choice for a birthday, but I wouldn't connect it with Games, but rather the real 'dance' party when it's late on the birthday. I don't think it really fits with the concept of Games, and I feel like you lowkey thought the same in your reasoning. Props for coming up with this idea, I really like it.
Chill Bill - This idea is so ****ing amazing  . I really like the idea of how one must study the effects and other things of the drug and make a trinity behind it. It really captures one of the 'skills' of HT: the researching. The first two songs are great picks, especially for their ambiance, they fit perfectly. ITAPII also fits well, but it feels like two songs fitted for their ambiance, whilst ITAPII fits more because of its lyrics. Not a bad pick, because I think your entry is near flawless, but if there was something I would change, it was to chose a song that also fits the ambiance of the crash. I really love to see this coming back next season, or something similar to it.
Prismatic - Do you live in Singapore  , I always thought you lived in the US  . Whilst the idea of this is rather simple, it's one I wouldn't mind coming back, especially about it being about your own country (tho I also don't want 1000 entries for the US). I feel like this is your strongest entry yet if I only look at reasoning. I really admire how you described everything, with passion, and it makes me feel really good about the country. You really made it (more) interesting for me. A really good job.
Satexy - I saw you and prismy thinking this was the same, but seeing as Sociology is one of my subjects on school, I think representing a culture and a country is really different. I don't understand why you chose that last song, because hating on the royal family more seems like a subculture in the GB, or even an 'anti'-culture, than as a part of the main culture you are describing. I feel like you could've chosen better subjects to represent the culture with, and I don't really like how you are reasoning in this entry. It may seem in my critique like I'm dragging you superhard  , but I still think you put some creativity in it and you made a good trinity 
A BOMB - I wish your entry was 3 songs that were all like your last song, I hoped that the first two would fit the Holiday more in terms of ambiance. This is an interesting idea to do, but after all your creativity in this contest so far, the idea is a bit of a letdown. Your reasoning on the other hand, is amazing, and so are the graphics. Your third song is so on point for me, and the first two songs are on point for me in terms of lyrics. Solid job |

lovesong - omg I love this idea  It's such an open idea to interpret but the birthday party theme is so fun and allowed you to be colorful and pick three songs I really enjoy
 Bill - I like your idea and it kind of fascinates me since I've only done one of these drugs and not the one you chose to elaborate on So it was very interesting to read, almost makes me want to try molly Mess @ Flight of the Bumblebee, good choice
Prismatic - This is a very solid idea and I like how you represented it and made it personal to you. I felt like I was getting a personal tour of Singapore  I really like the pics you chose as well.
Sexy - I love this trinity because different cultures fascinate me, I love learning about other people and the culture you chose to be an example is one of my faves tbh. (I've watched X Factor and Celeb BBUK online for like 5 years and I'm always so fascinated by the British public and the commercials and all the new things I hear about ) but yeah I like this idea.
A Bomb - Your graphics are on poinT and a holiday trinity seems like a really fun idea, everyone loves holidays and there are so many to choose from and the one you chose is a great example of how diverse holidays can be |

To be fair, there's more to a country than its culture and there's more to cultures than just country cultures!

Oh, wow, I made it!
I was so sure I was going to end up in the FT after deciphering Hug's hints. And I almost did!
Next round I'm really, REALLY going to have to bring it, because I'm going to have some really tough competition.

There's a reason why I always said Bagels is the best judge!

My lowest ranking, in the whole competition, being 4th.
Not winning first place at this point would be a travesty!

This is not true, before you Dissapeared, your entries were ok. After you came back you have given us much better trinities
You aee in no way a filler
