Survival Of The Fittest

Welcome to the 53rd SOTF Song Contest!

[+] General Songtest 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 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 with @Shiola 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 the semifinals are too large, I may split them into three. I tend to prefer even numbers for them.

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.
