U/tehhammerz

User tehhammerz has participated in Redditvision Song Contest 13 times, debuting in edition 43 with a last place finish in the Semi, scoring only 3 points - a record low. He has participated in every edition since, again finishing last in the Semi in the following edition, but scoring a few more points, to reach a total of 7. However, shockingly, in his third edition, he managed to avoid coming last - finishing 19th with 36 points, after hosting a national final where "Tech Noir" by GUNSHIP won. (Note: something that should be mentioned, but was skipped originally, was that this edition's Semi was the first time tehhammerz made someone's top 3 - he received 10 points from u/theGarden530!)

In the following edition he returned to his old ways, coming 20th in the Semi again with a total of 12 points, but historically receiving 10 points from external voter Palmas. The good streak of receiving high points from a few people continued in the final edition of 2021, as he received his first, historical, 12 from u/FlamePods/Jordan, as well as 8 points from Mozambique, by u/manleyy44. However, a total of 27 points, his second-highest points tally ever (at this point) was only enough to keep him away from last place because a song was disqualified and it was impossible to finish below 19th in the Semi.

After narrowly missing out on signups for edition 48, he was first on the waitlist and managed to make it into the edition after two users failed to submit songs. In the end, this actually turned out to be his best result ever, finishing a whopping 17th in the Semi and receiving a total of 59 points - outscoring his previous highest result by 23 points! This happened thanks to receiving points from 19 different people (11 internals + 8 externals), including three 8s, from Bhutan and Faroe Islands internally and England externally! (the users in question were u/FKA-Pieck, u/BebeLuigi and u/BiPolarBear17!)

In edition 49, he hosted a national final again, which was won by Boyanka Kostova (their second participation!) and Dios Ke Te Crew - and somewhat surprisingly, "Ázido Úriko" managed to find its way into 13th, marking the first time this user missed the bottom 5 of a Semi. It collected 59 points, which was only enough to tie his previous highest score, but due to the other songs' different results, it beat his previous best result by 4 positions! 16 different people (12 internals + 4 externals) gave points to him this edition, including 2 8s from Cuba and Philippines! (u/SandHannahtiser and u/zorkle22, respectively!)

Edition 50 was yet another record-breaking, or even record-shattering edition for tehhammerz, as "CRT Days" by Waveshaper, which had previously lost his national final back in #45, ended up scoring 82 points and finishing 12th in the Semi - a new points record and yet another highest position, for the third edition in a row! This time he received points from a total of 22 people (13 internals from a possible 21 + 9 externals from a possible 14), which meant yet another record was broken, and while he received no 12s, he received two 10s for the first time ever - from Croatia and Mexico (u/rrealKatie and u/Foobibby), both of whom were internal voters!

Following that, he made his special edition debut, anonymously sending "Bhambatha" by Zola (the original South African one, not the one listed on Chuu) and scoring 62 points in the Semi, which was enough for 15th place. However, this ended up being another record-breaking edition, because even though he only received points from 13 people this time (7 internal + 6 external), two of those were 12s (u/slfkjia as the internal 12 and u/SandHannahtiser as the external 12) for the first time ever! He also received two 10s (u/ge_nnna internally and u/ZwissDa2nd externally) and one 8 (from internal voter u/Chimlin) - which meant this wasn't just the record number of 12s, but also the record number of top 3s!

However, edition 51 was a return to the classic tehhammerz results, finishing in 20th again (for the fourth time) and receiving a total of 20 points. This may not be a strong result and it certainly put an end to the unusually solid results he had been getting prior to this, but he still received a 10 - from long-time Apple Monoxide music appreciator and external voter u/slfkjia!

On Discord, tehhammerz is known as Apple Monoxide, or just Apple.
