Themetacular Voting Begins!
Posted by Eddy in Extras, News on May.26, 2008.
A “Happy Memorial Day” is in order, I suppose. I think all weekends should be 3 days long by some kind of new Earth law. Also, all burritos should be at least a foot in length. I’d be good at boss-ing the world.
Our next update will have some tantalizing details about the Season Finale. Also, forecasting a high chance of lulz later this week. On to more immediate matters, though.
The entry deadline for the Themetacular Challenge has now passed and the finalists have been chosen. If you weren’t aware, the Themetacular Challenge is our first official contest, where fans submit original covers of The Leet World theme. The winning entry will be played during the intro of the Season Finale.
Overall, we’re proud of the response we’ve gotten from our community. It was definitely a treat to hear some of the stuff you guys came up with- who knew that so much could be derived from a goofy (but cool) intro themetune?
Read on to hear the finalists and the honorable mentions.
Honorable Mention
These were songs that we appreciated the effort on, but for one reason or another didn’t quite make the cut. One entry makes it just for being hilarious.
Aaron A.
Tim W.
Josh B.
Jace (Damn Dangerous) also submitted a false entry under a different name that happened to be one of my personal favorites. I later found out that it was made of not only win, but epic lies. Thanks for breaking my heart, Jace. You guys will be hearing that one at a later date. Actually, you’ve already heard it. Kind of.
Finalists
These entries represent what we felt to be the cream of the crop, mainly based on creativity and originality. Give each one of them a listen.
ChrisTeen- Great use of the theme underneath a pretty cool beat.
DJ Shox- This just makes you want to dance, huh?
Lars Erik Fjosne- Every time this tune erupts into celebration half way through, I want to party.
John Kozera- Simply the best of our live recorded entries and one of the more original takes on the theme in the contest.
Vote!

awesome!
May 26th, 2008 on 2:45 am
Damn it was a close choice between Lars and Shox, they both did a really good job, Shox had a really nice intro but Lars got my vote.
May 26th, 2008 on 2:53 am
It was close between ChrisTeen and Lars… i wont say who i voted for in the end!
May 26th, 2008 on 3:34 am
dayummmmm
great tracks
who will win?
May 26th, 2008 on 3:38 am
Lars’s song has a kind of theme to it that you would expect to play in the intro to a show like the leet world, especialy the next episode. And its the kind of song you just want to play over and over again because it sounds so funky its really great i’d rate it 5* so he got my vote!!!.
May 26th, 2008 on 4:30 am
The more I listen to ChrisTeen’s cover, the more I like it. My vote goes there.
May 26th, 2008 on 4:35 am
Not gonna say who i voted for, but Tim W’s is awesome.
May 26th, 2008 on 4:56 am
Yeah Tim W’s was awesome, but Lars’s is friggin sweet…votin fer Lars…wait I cant vote
May 26th, 2008 on 5:01 am
Tbh, they’re all good in their own special way. John’s for examle caters to my metal-addicted tastes. Overall though, I think the one that most suits the show (and a finale episode at that) is Lars’. Can’t wait for that final episode!
May 26th, 2008 on 5:22 am
Wow, i think Tim.W should have won. That was awesome
I’d love to see a longer one with more outtakes melded ino it, but my vote goes to lars, it’s too funky to knock!
May 26th, 2008 on 5:25 am
Lars Erik Fjosne is definitely my favourite!
May 26th, 2008 on 5:40 am
Accually Lars’s is pretty good but Chris’s is better BUT the one that suits more to the show is Lars’s Chris’s is too epic and intro needs bit more speed. Accually the current one is the best, gets me going every time I listen to it…
GO DAMN DANGEROUS!!!!
LEEEEEEEEET WORLD YEAAAAAH!!!!!!!!
May 26th, 2008 on 5:47 am
Lars is really nice :D, the other entries are really good but I think Lars captures the most feeling from The Leet World
May 26th, 2008 on 5:55 am
Oh come on! Tim deserves to win!
May 26th, 2008 on 6:05 am
I love lars erik’s music. I think hes got his win down already.
May 26th, 2008 on 6:23 am
tough between Lars and Shox, but i prefer the ending of lars and the begining of shox. Gotta be a good ending, Lars ur sound wins me over, have a cookie.
May 26th, 2008 on 6:36 am
ZOMGZ they’re all great! I wanna hear Jace’s new one
May 26th, 2008 on 7:29 am
Lars has one more vote, BTW, are you from sweden Lars?
May 26th, 2008 on 7:41 am
A lot of good entries here, and indeed some quite original ones too. I won’t tell which one I voted for, but in all fairness I have to say that no matter who wins, we will have a worthy winner.
And not only that, but now we have two good reasons to wait for the season finale. Not only will the episode be super, mega, hyper fantastic, but we will also get a wicked piece of new intro music!
Woohoo!
May 26th, 2008 on 7:52 am
nice, good luck to all of em
May 26th, 2008 on 9:06 am
DJ Shox got my vote. Guy knows how to make music.
May 26th, 2008 on 9:16 am
Three words: Tim W. FTW
-i’m not talkin to Adam Sizler-what-what-what-what-what-what-what-so scrumches-
LULZ!
May 26th, 2008 on 9:32 am
Seriously, Tim deserves a spot in the finalists.
May 26th, 2008 on 9:37 am
Everybody wants Lars! wow, try saying that out loud in a public place…
May 26th, 2008 on 9:41 am
dude, tims song oWneZ
May 26th, 2008 on 9:44 am
Tim W. THATS EPIC !
Lars Erik Fjosne get ma vote =]
May 26th, 2008 on 9:51 am
Really great entries! Can’t wait for you guys to post Jace’s!
May 26th, 2008 on 9:54 am
awesome songs shox ftw
May 26th, 2008 on 9:57 am
GO Lars Erik Fjosne =P
Dam all are so great.
May 26th, 2008 on 10:10 am
can i vote for both christeen and dj shox? their both great good job all finalists
May 26th, 2008 on 10:11 am
John Kozera all the way!
I don’t like techno and dance and electro and stuff…so I chose John Kozera.
May 26th, 2008 on 11:13 am
Tough choice. I think ChrisTeen would be great for this particular episode, given where the story’s at right now. The tone of it seems to fit all the suspense
BUT I think Shox’ really captures the awesomeness of the show as a whole. And a great intro, as others have said. Don’t know who to chose!
May 26th, 2008 on 11:54 am
Thanks!! ))
May 26th, 2008 on 12:01 pm
Is Lars Erik norwegian?
then its something to be proud of!
May 26th, 2008 on 12:27 pm
Lars Erik is the best hes going to win for sure
but if they would have put Tim’s in the final i would have voted for it
I WILL SMACK YOU IN YOUR MOUTH CHET LOLOLOLOLOLOL
May 26th, 2008 on 12:36 pm
honorable mentions, more like dishonorable mentions
May 26th, 2008 on 12:39 pm
What, no free beer too? What kind of world boss would you be with no free beer law?
May 26th, 2008 on 1:07 pm
They are all really good, however I think ChrisTeen’s suits The Leet World the most.
May 26th, 2008 on 1:23 pm
I refuse to vote unless Tim W. is in the finals.
May 26th, 2008 on 1:35 pm
They all are funny in a way.
May 26th, 2008 on 1:44 pm
FANTABYALAS!!!!!!!!!!!
May 26th, 2008 on 1:57 pm
Wow, thanks for the mention! I’m glad it brought lulz xD
May 26th, 2008 on 2:04 pm
This stuff rox GO LARS…and when the next Bio up.just wonderin, nice songs i lurve all of them
May 26th, 2008 on 2:13 pm
Uhh, I’m having technical issues
Im trying to vote for lars, but the bubble wont fill in when I click it
Any help?
May 26th, 2008 on 2:14 pm
Nevermind, sorry, It worked when I clicked on the twitter link
May 26th, 2008 on 2:24 pm
great
May 26th, 2008 on 2:46 pm
Hey John Kozera here. Thanks for the place in the finals, and thanks to anyone that votes for me. It goes out to all the hardcore kids and metal heads out there. lol
Oh, and if I don’t win, I call dibs on my music being used for the final-battle-setup-music or something.
May 26th, 2008 on 3:01 pm
was pretty close between Lars Erik Fjosne and chris but i chose the lars one, was awesome.
May 26th, 2008 on 3:22 pm
IDEA ! PUT Tim W’s on the credits of the finale !!!!!
May 26th, 2008 on 3:38 pm
It was REALLY close between Lars and Chris but in the end i had to go with Lars.
Also i agree with Backbone TIM IN THE CREDITS!?!?!
May 26th, 2008 on 3:42 pm
Dj Shox Pwnz!
May 26th, 2008 on 4:09 pm
Very close
May 26th, 2008 on 4:18 pm
Wow Lars has 59% of the votes. I think we know who will win
May 26th, 2008 on 4:44 pm
Chris would have been perfect for the end of ep. 13 because it has a mysterious feel to it.
I was so close to voting for it, then I realized that the theme song comes after the teaser and what ever uncertainty that existed might be cleared up by the time it plays so I went for Lars’, which before my realization was an extremely close 2nd.
May 26th, 2008 on 4:56 pm
I really think that all these deserve a place in the finals, for example a few of the ones for the credits….. aaron A. would be good for a transition between the characters “packing up” to go home or even the for now goodbye between chet and player….. but yeah you know and will figure out what is best
but guys i want to maybe be the first to congratulate you guys on a very successful “cartoon” (machinimina is to hard to spell ok) and from all your fans i would like to thankyou for your dedication and awesomeness in this series
Everyone should take a bow
May 26th, 2008 on 4:59 pm
+>9000
May 26th, 2008 on 5:24 pm
Yay, thanks to all voters
<3<3
May 26th, 2008 on 5:33 pm
The Voting ends tonight Oo. Looks like Lars is going to win.
Lars FTW!
May 26th, 2008 on 5:45 pm
I voted for Lars. It was the best IMO.
May 26th, 2008 on 6:05 pm
Voting ends NEXT Tuesday (June 3). Not tonight. Thanks for all the votes and participation, guys. I know it means a lot to the creators to hear how thoughtfully you’re all approaching this. That’s the best gift a creative person can get for their hard work.
May 26th, 2008 on 6:08 pm
DJ Shox here. Thanks for the support guys! Lars’ remix definitely is fun, he put in some good work on it. Kozera needs some more support for doing his mix live! It’s definitely a unique approach to the theme and it’s awesome.
May 26th, 2008 on 6:11 pm
if they chose christen’s I think it would be cool to have dramatic shots of each character
May 26th, 2008 on 6:12 pm
Lars wins
His is the only one that when it ends I feel like Westhiemer can chime in about last weeks shenanigans
May 26th, 2008 on 6:33 pm
sorry for double posting but I can’t vote and I’m logged in and everything
p.s. I also agree with applesauce about christen’s
May 26th, 2008 on 6:38 pm
Griffen, click on View Results and then click on Vote again. I had the same problem, only ChrisTeen’s entry was grayed out for me.
May 26th, 2008 on 6:44 pm
Dude, none even compare to DJ Shox! He totally has my vote. The simplicity of the beat accompanied with the perfect undertones allows you to really enjoy this to the fullest. Man you got my vote whole heartedly.
May 26th, 2008 on 7:00 pm
Shox was best! he got my vote
May 26th, 2008 on 7:30 pm
FYI Lars Erik Fjosne (The guy winning as of March 26th, 2008 at 9:30 PM East Coast USA) also works for LitFuseFilms for their music so, keep that in mind. That shows quality expierence to me.
May 26th, 2008 on 7:39 pm
can we download these as wma files sometime?
May 26th, 2008 on 7:51 pm
Tim’s soundtrack is my favorite….
May 26th, 2008 on 7:55 pm
Yeah, can we DL some of these?
May 26th, 2008 on 7:58 pm
Sure can, just right click on the direct links provided and click on Save Target As.
May 26th, 2008 on 8:24 pm
XD I like all of them… Course then, my intro was abit J Rocker style
May 26th, 2008 on 8:45 pm
Tim W. should win the “Pure Epic Lulz” award…That was the best use of sound clips from the outtakes.
Two of the songs were very close, but I had to choose…
May 26th, 2008 on 8:56 pm
Lars Erik Fjosne all the way.
Felt as if he put the most effort in it.
Plus, it was a really catchy tune.
Awesome!
May 26th, 2008 on 9:07 pm
Try playing Chris Teens and DJ Shox at the same time, sweet remix!!! lol
May 26th, 2008 on 9:13 pm
Tim deserves some kind of award for the pure hilarity that is his song, whether it be a place in the credits or something else.
May 26th, 2008 on 10:09 pm
omg after litening to the songs again i cant choose between lars and shox damn!
May 26th, 2008 on 10:56 pm
Ugh.. I viewed the results before I voted. Now it won’t let me vote..?
May 26th, 2008 on 11:31 pm
Try clearing your cache and signing back in.
May 26th, 2008 on 11:33 pm
yout not suposed to vote for something just becuas you think it sound cool, its supposed to fit into tlw intro. John kozera should win
May 26th, 2008 on 11:35 pm
Listen to the 4 finalists at the same time, it sounds cool.
May 27th, 2008 on 12:46 am
“yout not suposed to vote for something just becuas you think it sound cool, its supposed to fit into tlw intro. John kozera should win”
I’ll vote for who “sound cool”. Why ?
Because I CAN.
May 27th, 2008 on 12:51 am
I vote for djshox, because even though lars’ is pretty good, dj has the best beginning, and it just feels a lot more… epic to me, which is something you really need for a season finale to a series as good as TLW, especially now that all this intrigue and deception is going to be settled with (I would assume) a ton of action and conflict. I dunno, Lars’ just seems too much like a dance tune, or an intro to some anime show, and the (subtle) addition of epic violin notes to djshox’s really sold it for me. Plus, a lot more cool stuff visually could be done with the intro if they used djshox’s (just think about it and you’ll realize what I mean), but with lars’ they’re pretty much stuck with the same intro with a techno beat. They’re both great, but djshox’s would be the better choice IMO.
May 27th, 2008 on 1:18 am
Some good finalists there! It was a hard choice between two of them. Good job to em’ all ;]
May 27th, 2008 on 1:29 am
ahhh same problem as ash trying to vote all the themes are great excited for the finale
May 27th, 2008 on 2:34 am
the 3 finalist is beter that 1 and 2 bat 4 is also good bat to low words
May 27th, 2008 on 2:42 am
Yeah, everyone posted great pieces, but I think L. E. Fjosne did the best job.
May 27th, 2008 on 4:17 am
play christeen and shox together its awesome!
May 27th, 2008 on 5:02 am
Lars Erik Fjosne GOOD!
May 27th, 2008 on 5:39 am
My favorite is Lars Erik Fjosne
May 27th, 2008 on 5:56 am
lol im not voting cause Lars and Cris are both very good
May 27th, 2008 on 6:22 am
I voted for Kozera. good stuffs Kozera
May 27th, 2008 on 7:05 am
i voted for shox great intro loved it. Anyone know when epi 14 is released?
May 27th, 2008 on 8:23 am
I liked John Kozera (only)
May 27th, 2008 on 8:45 am
Too bad Tim W. didn’t make it to the final- he’d surely get my vote
Imho, “the best of the rest” is the one by DJ Shox- and that’s where my vote goes.
May 27th, 2008 on 10:13 am
Josh B.’s is my favorite. Too bad I can’t vote for it. ChrisTeen’s would be good if Episode 14 will be more serious.
May 27th, 2008 on 1:46 pm
Lars Erik Fjosne’s makes me want to flip out and start break dancing!
May 27th, 2008 on 1:58 pm
DJ Shox sounds most professional, but Lars fit better to a challange.^_^
May 27th, 2008 on 2:08 pm
Well there were all good, besides TimW had swearing. My vote would go to Lars Erik Fjosne’s for the most beat and it’s interesting to hear. I hope it will become the finalist intro theme! Lets wait and see shaw we.

May 27th, 2008 on 3:26 pm
Are write-ins allowed? lol
Otherwise ChrisTeen FTW
but im not allowed to vote for some reason
May 27th, 2008 on 4:01 pm
well, what i have to say is:
all of them rock… and that you guys should use all of those in the last episodes lol =] like i nthe intervals and stuff, all of them made a nice effort and thats what i think about it… it’l be great! (my fav. are DJ Shox & Lars)
May 27th, 2008 on 4:08 pm
Tim W’s Theme for the Credits !
Show your support in your comments !
May 27th, 2008 on 4:25 pm
DJ Shox and Lars have to be my favorites and im defiantly downloading them
May 27th, 2008 on 4:42 pm
I like that dj guy’s but more suited to the leetworld (next to the original theme) has to be Lars. o.o Anyway, about christeen’s (is that pronounced christeen or chris- teen o.o) imagine a gloomy player. ’nuff said.
May 27th, 2008 on 4:47 pm
i actually liked Josh B. the most..
May 27th, 2008 on 5:20 pm
Lars has this competition in the bag.
I’ve read a few comments about mixing all the songs together. I’m gonna try that with my mom’s audio modifying thingy program. I hope is sounds as awesome as you guys say.
I liked the first three finalists, but I guess I didn’t like the third because it was that original. I mean, who isn’t addicted to the current Leet World theme tune???
I downloaded those three, and Tim W.’s for being funny.
Final note, I think I’m going to yell out “EVERYBODY WANTS LARS!!!” in math class tomorrow. Yeah, I think I will.
Regards,
Amps
May 27th, 2008 on 5:31 pm
shame on you Damn Dangerous. Shame!
May 27th, 2008 on 5:37 pm
I agree with this man!
May 27th, 2008 on 5:52 pm
vote john kozera
May 27th, 2008 on 6:08 pm
Man ChrisTeens sounds like a beat from the
‘Its A Wonderful Life’ Game
pretty good though
May 27th, 2008 on 6:42 pm
OH MY GOD, when you play chris’s and lars, at the exact same time, it sound cool, cos lars’ finishes first then chris’s fades out O:
May 27th, 2008 on 7:07 pm
am I disabled or something because I can’t get the mouse to be in 2 places at the same time!!!! GAH!
and, if ChisTeen’s song doesn’t win, I vote it for the credits!!! MUAHAHA!!!
ya I change personalities between posts u got a prob w/ dat?
no more comments I promise. pinky-swear.
May 27th, 2008 on 7:49 pm
My vote is definetly for Josh B, even though he didn’t make it.
May 28th, 2008 on 1:10 am
It’s pronounced “christeen”. Yes, she’s a girl. And frankly making covers isn’t her speciality, she sings, sometimes composes the music, that’s it.
May 28th, 2008 on 1:30 am
GAH!!!! It’s a tie between Lars and Chris!!!!! But Ninja will choose… Lars is definately from Lit Fuse Films, and I like some of their music. But I really don’t like their videos much anymore. They are way too sad. At least have a few that end happily! I loved Dancing’s Easy.
I voted for Lars anyway. I can see a great opening for this. A really great one. Really really great. Seriously, it would be great.
May 28th, 2008 on 1:34 am
I want Christeen in the credits though.
May 28th, 2008 on 3:50 am
I agree christeen would be good in credits.
But my vote goes to lars…
great beat and start
GO LARS
May 28th, 2008 on 3:54 am
i agree with byakii
they should put chris and lars together it sounds awsome
if i could id vote for that
May 28th, 2008 on 4:24 am
HEY i just found out that lars has done some work for Litfuse films!!! the music for “Ignis Solus” was made by him???!!!! even more reason to vote. Lars Erik Fjonse!!.
May 28th, 2008 on 6:01 am
Hey LarsErikFjosne what do You use to create music?
You got my vote
May 28th, 2008 on 6:39 am
Octarine: i do allmost all the work for litfuse
Squall: I use Reason 4 & Sound Forge
May 28th, 2008 on 8:43 am
That’s what I call a machinima music composer XD
May 28th, 2008 on 12:03 pm
Yeah, I saw Lars’s name in the credits for their newest release Jill’s Song, which by the way is awesome.
May 28th, 2008 on 12:22 pm
wow damn its hard to vote between christeen n lars…. christeen song is like probably gonna be a dramatic sad ending which is cool and also lars is like a happy dramatic cool ending!which to vote!!!john tottaly let me down. DJ’s song can be played in the credits it suits the credits!!
May 28th, 2008 on 12:25 pm
Try playing christeen n lars both at the same time it sounds damn good!!!
May 28th, 2008 on 12:54 pm
Great stuff, I really liked all of em, but DJ Shox was my favorite for the opening. The rest should be used for credits in my opinion.
May 28th, 2008 on 1:39 pm
Lars = epic win
BloodHound, doesn’t seem to make much difference to me.
DJ Shox was interesting, but didn’t quite cut it for up-beat wackiness. Also, use Tim W’s in the credits or something. Please. It’s hilarious!
On another note, where is Jace’s? You said we’ve already (sort of) heard it… where? I’m curious D:
May 28th, 2008 on 1:47 pm
Hidden in Episode 13. Nick was in on the joke. I was watching the (nearly final) version of ep 13 and then I heard it. I was like, “we can’t use someone’s entry”, and Nick just smiled at me. That’s when I knew my friends were liars.
May 28th, 2008 on 2:10 pm
i do think christeen should be in the end also.
May 28th, 2008 on 2:13 pm
Lars Erik Fjosne, all the way
May 28th, 2008 on 5:28 pm
LOL, I yelled out, “EVERYBODY WANTS LARS!!!” in my math class while the teacher was lecturing us. Nobody in that class knows about this show, which made it even more random. And everybody cracked up, I was sent to the office for the rest of the period, where I used to computers there to watch some of my fave show: The Leet World!!! YEAH!!! Getting in trouble has never been so sweet!
Again, I look forward to Lars’ song in the intro, and ChrisTeen’s in the credits! And I encourage everyone to yell out “EVERYBODY WANT LARS!!!” in grumpy teachers’ classes (if you’re in middle/high school)! And you know it’s good, because it’s endorsed by me, Adam Sizzler! Only do it sparingly, though. Don’t want it to get old!
Regards,
Amps
May 28th, 2008 on 5:43 pm

You’re right, it does make me want to party. :]
May 28th, 2008 on 7:04 pm
Every time I listen to lars I think of Altaïr dancing (this is from a litfuse vid), epecially after 15 seconds
May 28th, 2008 on 7:44 pm
go DJ. Nice job very up beat song
May 28th, 2008 on 7:47 pm
i think they should mix ChrisTeen and Lars Erik Fjosne but Lars Erik Fjosne should go two seconds ahead listen to them like that it’s sick
