Roulette Grading Scale:Maybe you’re wondering why this roulette is called Strawberry Fields? It’s because I’m awarding strawberries as the scoring mechanism for this roulette!
Each song will be scored out of 5 strawberries. Any artist that receives 3 or more strawberries will be banned. I’ve also listed roughly what each # of strawberries would map to on a 0 to 10 scale, just for reference. You can’t get negative strawberries.
: Does nothing for me. Completely average or worse. (0 to 5)
: It’s okay but I can’t imagine myself revisiting it. (5 to 6)
: Decent but doesn’t really excite me. (6 to 7)
: Pretty good, might check out this album, might not. (7 to 8)
: Quite good, I’ll definitely check out this album. (8 to 9)
: I love this, please send more like it. (9 to 10)
As well, the round winner will receive a bonus golden strawberry!
It’s worth two strawberries, and it looks shinier too! And it might be poisonous.
The goal of the standard rounds is to amass 30 strawberries. When at least 5 players have received 30 or more strawberries, the roulette will move to the final round and everyone else will be eliminated.
There is a pool of 40 strawberries awarded for bonus themes (see below). I will detail how the bonus theme system works in that section.
The earlier you reach 30 strawberries, the better, as two bonus strawberries for the final round are awarded based on how many rounds early that 30 strawberries are reached. For example, if one reaches 30 strawberries one round before the finals, two will be awarded towards the final round. If one reaches 30 strawberries two rounds before the finals, four will be awarded towards the final round. If one reaches 30 strawberries right before the finals, no bonus strawberries will be awarded.
If 10 rounds pass and the 5 slots have not been filled, the highest-scoring remaining players below 30 will be pulled into the finals. 2 additional strawberries will be awarded to all qualifying players based on half (rounded down) the # of strawberries below 30 that the lowest scoring player in the final has. (For example, 23 strawberries would award qualifying players 3 bonus strawberries, 26 would award 2, etc.) Note that any player who does not qualify will not receive these bonus strawberries, regardless of how close they are to 30.
Scores will be reset (aside from the aforementioned bonus strawberries) before the final round, in which up to 30 strawberries can be earned – 5 for each song sent, and 5 extra strawberries for the overall EP score. Do note that this means that you are free to send EPs with less than 5 songs, but you will automatically lose 5 strawberries per song not sent. If you feel you have four 5/5 songs and a 5/5 flow, with no room to add another song, feel free to give it a shot at your own risk.
In the result of a tie after the EP round, the tiebreaker will be the highest-ranking song across all tied EPs.
