wow look it's me again. i sure do look familiar don't i. wow. look at that. wow. incredible. how the fuck did i get here. anyway welcome to
THE 17TH SOTF SONG CONTEST
its funny because all my songtests look exactly the same because i'm the lazy corporate takeover version of a songtest. speaking of here are da entirely unchanged rulez:
- [+] read them or dont idk yall know the drill
-
- submit your song via PM or discord, whichever's easier for you
- 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.
- the top [x] songs will move on to the final. that number depends on the number of contestants. I'm gonna be trying to pare down the finals a bit this time around so that probably means more semifinal eliminations. you have been warned
- repeat the process for the finals and we get a winner.
- 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.
song rules:
- no eurovision songs
- no reality show/competition covers
- no songs already submitted in a songtest
- there is no penalty for length in this contest. however, if a song goes over 7 minutes, listeners aren't obligated to listen to more than the first 7 minutes of the song. so choose a long song at your own risk!
each semifinal and the final will last for four days. some rules about activity/extensions:
- if you know at the start of your semifinal that you wont be available to vote for those four days, let me know asap and I can move you to another semi, if we aren't on the final one already.
- I'll be posting every 24 hours in this topic as a reminder, as well as pinging everyone who hasn't voted on discord 24 hours before the round ends.
- extensions will only be granted in extenuating circumstances. forgetting to vote until an hour before deadline is not an extenuating circumstance.
im your... holy shit fourth time songtest master??? Fenris. i am in fact the corporate takeover. i am jeff bezos now. guillotine me if you DARE
which is appropriate given our theme:
yes just in time for the US midterm elections our theme is
FIGHT THE POWER. protest music, angry anti-authority shit, whatever floats ur boat! i'm not looking
specifically for protest music here so if you think it fits the theme but it isn't specifically a protest song, go for it. i won't be disqualifying songs on basis of not fitting the theme or anything, i'll let the people decide what does or doesn't fit.
countdown to signups ending:
to enter just wing me your song, preferably via discord but board pm is fine too. you can also optionally post here if you want to enter but don't have a song yet but want ur name down on the List. people who havent given songs yet are in Italics
