What's the problem? You think it's easy to run this game and come up with different rounds each round? I am still trying to figure out next round. Hold on.

Pedro Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 ATRL's original game "Choose The Album, Then a Song" is back for its anticipated ninth season on its original concept. "Sorry I'm Late", does that make up for my delay @MusicLoverDude? A new round is now ready to be presented to our eight contestants. As you know last elimination round no one had to say goodbye but we can easily see a few disparities in the final chart. With this being said, the bottom 4 will now have the opportunity to recover. More details soon. Before getting into the round itself, let's review the rules. 1. There's not such thing as bad losers; We are all here to have fun and share our favorite music with everyone. 2. Every contestant must cast a vote each round; The main purpose of the game is to introduce everyone to new music. If this rule isn't applied, only the judges will benefit from it. 3. Every entry must contain a written part; To fully understand your decision, you will be required to send in an essay along with the song chosen. 4. A song can only be used twice and can only be use three rounds after; This will allow you to explore your album further. 5. Deadlines must be respected by contestants and judges; There will be three updates throughout the week. 6. There's no space for stan wars or called voters; The main purpose of this game is to introduce everyone to knew music. Therefore, we don't want any fights or any type of voting manipulation. 7. The vote process is build up of two parts; Every round the judges votes will be mixed with the public votes. 8. Be fair and do not be biased. If you want others to respect your work and game, make sure you respect others too by not allowing your personal taste affect your votes. PEDRO HOLYGROUND KAVISH PLUS: TBA. A symphony is an extended musical composition written for an orchestra. It is a work usually consisting of multiple sections and are scored for string, brass, woodwind and percussion instruments. A good long play also needs to have rich instruments and content to please the listener. Therefore, for this round you are supposed to send in the richest song in your album in terms of instruments. We are not expecting a symphony with 30-100 musicians in the background but we are also not expecting a simple studio mix filled with synthesizers effects. Explain with detail, in no more than 300 words, why the song chosen has the richest instrumental from your point of view, not forgetting to mention a few of the instruments that build it. Submit your entry to me (Pedro) and don't forget a streaming link. DEADLINE March, 30th Spoiler @shelven, @MusicLoverDude, @theycallmemaraj, @Rihlana, @sumthintoxic82, @Queen Conchita, @Speezy, @lhdang2000 BONUS ROUND This bonus round will only be played by four of the eight contestants: the bottom four. I believe it's important to stimulate the competition and, at the moment, there's a big difference between the top 4 and the bottom 4 which can be quite demotivating. With this being said, this bonus round will be very simple yet very effective. Each of the contestants placed from 5th to 8th place will submit until March, 30th a song and an essay proving why they deserve to continue in the competition. The essay can't have more than 200 words. Keep in mind that this round is not mandatory and you can submit ANY song (used or yet to be used). The normal point distribution won't apply in this case, there will be new rules revealed when the entries are also posted.

Queen Conchita Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) If any round is perfectly suited to my album it's this one I also LOVE the bonus round, got the perfect song Edited March 26, 2017 by Queen Conchita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelven Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 I figured this round was coming eventually There's two songs I can think of on my album that use quite a lot of instruments, so I'll have to go back and listen to them to decide which one uses more and uses them more effectively.

MusicLoverDude Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Ok. That clarifies things better. There is a particular song I've been saving for a round like this and hopefully it pays off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Conchita Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 (edited) Is the bonus round more about the essay and why you deserve to stay rather than details about the song? Edited March 27, 2017 by Queen Conchita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
