Okay, kids...
We're about a week away from starting this sucker, so I wanted to lay down the ground rules.
1. Each round, you submit your song to me. There is no posting what song you entered each round until that round is over. That way, submissions shall remain anonymous until voting is complete for a given round.
2. All links will be provided in one single post as made by me, so that nobody posts a song, has people listen to it, and submit a song based on somebody else's pick.
3. As I said in rule #1, songs will remain un-listed until the round is over. That way, specific artists need not be judged based on who they are.
4. You may still cast voted in rounds after you're eliminated, however, I'm not waiting. Each round will have a specific end-by date, and if your vote has not been placed, then you're SOL.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask within this thread, or message me, either through the message boards, or on MSN.
With that said, you may all start submitting your first songs to me now.

Thanks y'all for the comments about my slight rule changes.
One of the things I don't much care for about "American Idol" and whatnot is how viewers attach themselves to one contesant and ride them out for the whole series. I feel that if you don't know who you're voting for, you can be a little more objective as to the song at hand.
I mean, it's only natural that as the contest goes on, some selections are going to become rather obvious as to who submitted them.
Anyway, as of this point, I've only recieved a song by Jason, so as for the rest of you, feel free to pvt message me your links!

When is the due date? Can I send you a song via email or does it have to be usendit.com? What does SOL mean? That is all.
ps: good rule change. Anonymous works best!

I'd ideally like to post all of the first round songs on Sunday, October 3, but that can be shifted based on when I get all the submissions. Given that my e-mail doesn't really hold much in terms of size, it's best to either upload your track to yousendit or send it to me via MSN (dan_o_records@hotmail.com). And SOL is just a short way of saying Sorry out of Luck.

Do you have gmail? Does gmail allow attachments that big? If you don't I can set you up with a gmail account.

Question: when we send the songs (or upload them to yousendit), do we do it with all of the information about the song (the IDTag3 thing?) and filename with artist - title or will Dan do all of that before it goes up for people to download and listen to?

Send it to me with the file tag filled out and everything. I need to know with what I'm dealin' with. I'll make all the required changes.
