Still might need a lot of work,but feel free to leave feedback!
I'm having problem opening your pdf-files, that goes for the splatoon submission too. Maybe see if you can fix that.

How do you even save pdf files?? I think I am saving them wrong...
I print them to the desktop using a pdf-creator program. You can also export, but I recommend printing pdfs.
I might have fixed it, but i'm not too sure... I really don't know what pdf-creator program to use for this..
Still doesn't work :(
I'm using pdf Architect, but I used Adobe before and both works fine. I don't know why it doesn't work. I mean it's just to export or print and then upload the file. I also wonder what you mean by "don't know how to save pdf files", just save them on your desktop or in any other file folder.
I'll help you out. I tried using CutiePDF, but then found out you had to have a license. So, I just export as a .XML to MuseScore (great program, btw, and it's free), fix the formatting errors, and save the file as a .MID and .PDF
PDF has been fixed thanks to E. Gadd Industries help!!
I use PDFLite to save PDF files. You simply select the Print option in any program (like Finale) and "PDFLite" shows up in the list of printers. Click on it, choose where you want to have the file saved, and voila! You have a PDF file. :)
I had a quick look at your arrangement and noted a few suggestions (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong):
- Try to follow the same note beaming throughout the sheet. Starting from m. 13, the topmost layer in the left-hand should have the same beaming as you have before this in the right-hand (dotted quaver + beamed semi-quaver & quaver + quaver).
- m. 13-20 is actually repeated three times, so your first ending (m. 20) needs to have 1,2 and m. 21 ending should have the number 3.
- Starting from m. 22, I'd probably change the accompaniment to show the extra strings that are introduced at that point.
- I'm not sure what the updaters will think of the chords in the right-hand that begin in m. 38. It adds variety but I can't seem to hear them in the original track in that particular section (m. 38-52). I'm really not sure how much we're allowed to improvise. *shrugs*
- I also don't hear a chord playing in m. 5 onwards on those main beats (where you have A flat and C). If you'd like to emphasise those notes, then you could maybe add tenutos?
- Minor things: Make your expressive text bolded, and don't forget to fix the typo in "Everything". Also look through to make sure that nothing overlaps (eg. m 16, 41 and 49), but that could be left last, plus you use Notepad so it might be best to leave someone with Finale to fix up this minor stuff.
- The two crotchet rests in m. 29 should be a minim rest. (Or was one of them moved up from the left hand? If so, move it back down to the correct position)
But all-in-all, it's sounding lovely! :)

1.I don't know if i can do that
2.I believe they are there... I mean there are so many voices in the piece that it's hard to pick up on everything
3.i listened to it with an earbud to where i could distinctly hear the bass by only putting one earbud in.... I still may be wrong though
4. I think you told me the wrong measure
Typo has been fixed, however i don;t know how to bold this.
I wonder what pdf-program do you use? Also you might wan't to check if you got an old version of it, and if that's the case, update it might solve some issues.
The PDF has been updated!

I haven't used Finale Notepad in a while, so I can't recall whether it's possible to customise repeat signs. If you use Finale it should be fairly straightforward to change the numbers of the endings. (Just let us know if you'd like someone to do that for you)
Quote4. I think you told me the wrong measure
Whoops, my bad! I was talking about m. 31. :)
QuoteTypo has been fixed, however i don;t know how to bold this.
Again, I haven't had Notepad in a while, but you should (hopefully) be able to bold the text by highlighting it, then in the toolbar, select Text > Style > Bold.
BTW: What's a Quaver? and a semi-quaver?
Edit: Fixed the rests in measure 31!
Bolded the text
silly english people
Quaver is the British-English equivalent of an eighth note. A semi-quaver, thus, is a sixteenth note. And I believe a quarter note is a crotchet?
Fixed a part where some notes were missing as well as the error in notation by replacing the (dotted eighth note+ dotted eighth note+ eighth note) error and replaced it with an (eighth note+sixteenth note tied to an eighth note+ eighth note) throughout the sheet!
Also.... could someone with Finale fix some of the previously stated errors.... like the one about the repeat...

Ah! I forget how different some words are across the ocean. I'll keep it in mind when I post musical terms here that not everyone might understand me, lol. (Indeed, a crotchet is a quarter. :) Following that is the minim, semibreve & breve).
Here's the MUS file (link (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/108749630/Arrangements/Requests/Undertale.mus)) for this sheet with the repeat signs fixed, and a couple of other minor adjustments (you won't even notice they're there!)
I also wanted to show what I meant about the additional voice stepping in at m. 22, it sounds something like this (after the mf mark):

Thanks, I, and I bet a lot of other Undertale fans, really appreciate it!
Updating the links now!

Ah, yes. Haven't heard those since Deku's been around. :P
Some formatting stuff I noticed:
-I think you can fit this arrangement on 6 pages. Size down the pages and move some measures closer.
-There are some places where you have only 1 measure per system, the systems are measure 40, 76 and 108. Make them to 2 measure-systems at least, or 3, whatever works best.
I asked for help in the help thread for this...I can't seem to do it with Notepad..
Done! All files have been updated with the fixed version Thanks to TheMarioPianist's help!
