Alright, I'm changing things up right here, right now. There's a new twist in this game.
We are heading into the last round before the final series, and for a few of you, unfortunately it look inevitable that you are on the chopping block. There have been a lot of bands I have never heard of been submitted, more than what I thought. It seems you guys are finding good holes to fill in my discography and even though it's tough for some, I've been super impressed so far.
There are however, a few bands I thought would have been submitted by now. I don't know if people are saving them for the finals or whatever, but I'm spicing things up now.
This little bonus feature will only last for the next 3 rounds. So, that's round 6, then the first two final rounds 7 and 8. I have put together a list of 10 bands, some of which I thought would have been submitted, others not so much, they might just be a band I've wanted to look into. I will post really vague clues on to what these bands are later once I fully get it together. If anyone knows what one of the bands might be and wishes to take a punt and send a song from them in one of these three rounds, I will confirm if they are one of the bands right away and you then have the option to send a second song from any artist you wish, or perhaps what you were originally going to send anyway. I will then of course listen to both and your score will obviously be the higher out of the two songs, making your chances of a high score even higher.
So, it may seem unfair to the guys that look like they are out of contention, but I only am adding this now as I wanted 5 rounds of stuff from you, without looking for bands you might not normally send. The point of the roulette's IMO is to send bands that YOU hold dear and want to share with someone else, not sending songs that you think I might like or artists that have been introduced from others.
So, this is also a little bonus for the contestants that are in finals contention to give them a boost for doing so well so far. Once the top 4 hits for round 9, this feature is off. It's an advantage for the first two weeks of finals too as you can potentially get 2 cracks at a bonus point over your opponent if you get one of the bands. I've also changed the rules for round 9, where I want two songs from the same artist! The final EP round will be 25-30 minutes in length with no restrictions on how many artists you use. You just have 25-30 minutes. So;
Round 5 - Normal proceedings
Round 6 - Normal proceedings - Open - Max song length 20 minutes (13 participants) (bonus band feature in play)
Round 7 (Round 1 Finals) - Open - Max song length - 20 minutes (8 participants) (Head to Head bonus point and bonus band feature in play)
Round 8 (Semi Finals) - Open - Max song length - 15 minutes (6 participants) (Head to Head bonus point and bonus band feature in play)
Round 9 (Prelim Finals) - Open - 2 songs from the same artist - Max song length - 10 minutes each (4 participants) (Head to Head Bonus point in play)
Round 10 (Grand Final) - Open - EP round - 25 - 30 minutes - However many artists you want (2 participants)
Make sense?
