[imagine that I can embed youtube videos on this forum and that the Ballroom scene from FFVIII is here]
Hey hey. It’s me, Yugi, your MC for the night. Now I’m pretty sure all y’all have been dancin’ your legs out all night long (please help i’ve never been to a dance before i don’t know the proper terminology) so I’m gonna cut the tempo a bit. Give tha couples in the room a lil’ time to get a lil’ romantic on the stage, if y’know what I mean. Gonna need ta find my playlist though.
Uh.
Shit.
Where’s my slow dance playlist?
Uh…
Guess you guys are gonna have’ta help me outta bit, here...
Welcome to the 26th honorary Interim SOTF Song Contest. Your theme?
…
…
The Slow Dance.
- [+] Slow Dance Theme and Song Nomination Rules
-
1. Songs may be anything that you could conceivably see being played at the slow dance section of a wedding, formal, prom night, bar mitzvah, whatever. General ballroom music is also acceptable, if you so choose.
2. No Eurovision Covers - regular covers are fine though.
3. No reality show/competition covers.
4. Please don't use anything we've used in a prior songtest (Master Songtest Sheet here).
5. Gonna go ahead and steal Kermit's and Shiola’s rule here and say that while criticism's fine, there's no need to relentlessly slag songs in chat. This is for fun and we all have different tastes, which is part of the experience of participating in these.
- [+] Snogtest Rules
- 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 favourites: 12 to your favourite, 10 to your second, 8 to your third, 7 to your fourth, and so on down to 1 point for your tenth favourite.
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 @Shiola so that I can 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 won't 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.
And that’s it, I think? Sign-ups will run for roughly four days from this post, or until we get thirty. Either or.
Italics means that whoever’s signed up hasn’t submitted a song yet.
