Pedro Posted March 14, 2020 Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) SURPRISE! ATRL's original tournament - Choose The Album, Then a Song - is aiming to make its come back after three years since its last season. With all this coronavirus situation going on, it's safe to say many of us will have more free time for all sort of things and it's never too late to dig into new music, artists and genres, the aim of Choose The Album, Then a Song. Without further due, I am officially opening the submissions for season 10 for both contestants and judges. The spots will be limited to make sure the game remains interesting and dynamic. Choose The Album, Then a Song?! "Choose The Album, Then a Song" title is pretty self-explanatory but allow me to introduce it to all of you. The main concept is for the contestants to play the entire game with a music album and survive each elimination by sending in the best song that fits the round theme. In summary, your main mission is to select a LP to play and, during each round, select the best song for the theme along with a small essay justifying your choice. That is your main mission but the game's goal is to allow everyone to be introduced to new music and varied music genres. 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. If you're sharing your music with us, be prepared to allow new music to be shared with you; By playing this game, you will be required to cast your vote every round and that means you'll have to listen to each song and read each essay. 3. 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. 4. Respect the game's deadlines; Due to the complexity of the game, there will be defined deadlines to allow you to plan your life in accordance with the game. 5. You can only sign-up with studio albums; This version of the game will only allow studio albums to play. No EPs, Remixes or Greatest Hits albums are allowed. 6. Only one album per artist; For diversity purposes there can only be an album per artist. 7. 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. Additional Tips: (1) Choose a versatile album to play with; (2) Make sure you are going to have time for this game as it can be quite demanding; (3) Be aware that writing is a crucial part of the game and will be evaluated (sometimes it will be more important than your song choice). SIGN-UPS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. (...). JUDGES Contact me via Private Message if you're interested. ELIMINATORY ROUND As stated above, sign-ups will be limited. For that reason, we'll kick things off with an eliminatory round. Your task is to send in a taste of what you have to offer. How? Send in (via private message) three songs from the album you selected where you specify 30 seconds of the three tracks and explain why those are a good preview of what you have to offer. Deadline will be announced shortly. Edited March 22, 2020 by Pedro
