So, uh. That happened.
ANYWAYS! my city now
COVERS 2: ACOUSTIC BOOGALOO
The theme this time is covers, yes, but it comes with one caveat: the cover you use has to alter the original song in a significant way. This can mean a bunch of different things! Acoustic covers! A capella covers! Orchestral covers! Covers that change the lyrics! Covers of love songs that change the gender of the singer so that It's Gay Now (you know the ones)!! If you have questions over whether your song counts, just ask; I'll probably say yes. Pretty much as long as it's not just a repeat of the original song with different artists, it counts (and sometimes even that works).
- [+] teh rules
- No reality show/competition covers or Eurovision songs. Weird holdover rule but I copy/paste these every time, from others who did the same. By now it's just a tradition.
Please don't use anything we've used in a prior songtest (Master Songtest Sheet here).
There's no need to relentlessly bash songs in chat. This is for fun and we all have different tastes, which is part of the experience of participating in these.
Songs will be randomly divided into 2 or 3 semifinals depending on turnout. if you're going to be away at some point in the next couple of weeks, let me know and I can try to put your song in a round when you'll be here.
Listen to every song and give points to your top 10 favorites: 12 to your favorite, 10 to your second, 8 to your third, 7 to your fourth, and so on down to 1 point for your tenth favorite.
If your song is in a given round, you must vote that round or you'll be eliminated. if your song isn't in that round (or you aren't in the contest at all), your vote will be counted as a public vote, which counts for half points.
If you're doing a public vote in chat, tag me in Discord with @Zetsu so that I can find them or send them to me like regular votes. If you don't do this, I can't guarantee I'll find them.
Public votes will all count as half-votes.
The top songs will move on to the final; the number of top songs depends on the number of contestants. Repeat the process for the finals and we get a winner.
The winner gets to hold the next contest, or they can pass the job along to 2nd place if they don't want to. 2nd place can pass down to third, etc, until someone wants to host.
Each semifinal and the final will last for three days.
If you know at the start of your semifinal that you wont be available to vote for those four days, let me know and I can move you to another semifinal, if we aren't on the final one already.
I'd post more gifs/images, but i'm, like, having a real hard time finding stuff that riffs on the idea of covers. whoops.
Songtest will begin in 72 hours, at which time signups will close. Until then, have at!
