If one of the admins could make a separate board for this contest, it would be greatly appreciated. I will leave this thread here for now.

Song Contest 2011
I. FORMAT
Each week, contestants will submit TWO songs for the contest. There will a theme each week, and the contestant's first song must match the theme. They can submit any song from any time frame and any artist, it can be a released or an unreleased song.
For their 2nd song, contestants will submit a song that will be their SURVIVAL song. If they are in the bottom 3 that week, their survival song will be played and the contestant whose song got the fewest amount of votes will be eliminated. This song does not have to fit the week's theme, but it MUST BE AN UNRELEASED SONG. That goes for anywhere in the world.
This format will continue on throughout the contest. The format may be tweaked for the final few rounds, but I have not decided how those rounds will go just yet.
II. RULES
1) Contestants songs are to be 100% antonymous to the voting public and other contestants. As a contestant, you may NOT reveal what song you picked AT ANY TIME prior to the voting. If you are caught revealing your song choice to anyone at all and there is hard evidence, you WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY ELIMINATED FROM THE GAME.
2) Contestant's song choices will be revealed after the SURVIVAL round each week, and this is done to eliminate anyone voting based on prejudice of another contestant.
III. VOTING
For the THEME round, there will be two votes factored in: Public Voting and Contestant Voting. Each will count for 50% of the total vote each week. The voting will be done in a ranking order, from best to worst.
For the ELIMINATION round, a poll will be posted on the forums, and both contestants and the public can vote. If an individual has a song in this elimination, they CANNOT vote. If they do vote in the poll, then they will be AUTOMATICALLY ELIMINATED from the contest. Voters will be able to vote for either 1 or 2 songs, and the votes will be hidden until the vote is unlocked and will NOT have the option to retract their vote.
If you have any questions, just reply and I will answer them! Also feel free to offer any suggestions! Oh, and SIGN UP BELOW!!!
