Survival Of The Fittest

Bet you never expected to see me up here, huh.

I don't have exciting flavor text or fancy images like the kids these days so just imagine a sepia filter over everything. Maybe even black and white. Are things starting to look a little grainy? That's because this songtest's theme is...


In other words, a song from your childhood/past life/dark eons gone by. Any genre, any artist within the rules, all of that goes, but songs more recent than 5 years old are ineligible. You don't have to include an explanation of why you chose your song when you submit, but if you want to that would be cool.

[+] Rules, copied from the last songtest like a real villain

No Eurovision Songs

No reality show/competition covers.

Please don't use anything we've used in a prior songtest (Master Songtest Sheet here).

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.

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 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 some as-of-yet undetermined amount of time, round extensions are likely given that V7 launch is just around the corner and people's attention will be elsewhere.

If you know at the start of your semifinal that you wont be available to vote within the time available, let me know and I can move you to another semifinal, if we aren't on the final one already.

Sign-ups are likely to run past the V7 start date, so take your time but not too much time. You can send me songs through either DIscord or board PM.
