DLcon music quiz
« on: January 26, 2009, 09:33:58 PM »
I'm running it this year, and want submissions for the topic to help round it out. Same format as last year. Board PM me one song idea for the topic. Don't worry about sending it to me, I can always collect that later on.

RPGs strongly encouraged, I'm using enough non RPGs (5-10) as is.

Only one?  I think Meep got people to submit like 5 and picked the best suiting one of the lot.  Cause you know otherwise you are just going to get the obscure shit or a bunch of FF music.  Edit - Not saying a change is different, just it seemed like pretty decent reasons for doing it.

Yeah, I had people submit 4-6 songs, and I chose one from the mix.  It helped avoid using the same game multiple times, but also kept people from being insured to know one song instantly and such.

I actually didn't like that format, since I had about two really good ideas for music quiz (notably the Mario 64 final boss track I had OK pull out for the tiebreaker--every time that came up on my playlist I was like "what is this, Suikoden or something?  Wait, what, Mario??")  But I didn't have six such tracks, so uhh...I could throw in a bunch of filler.

but also kept people from being insured to know one song instantly and such.
I kinda assume it's common sense that "you don't answer your own song submissions".  I mean, at least for me I'm submitting stuff because I want to see how long it will take everyone else to recognize it.

I don't care if people just send in one-two submissions.

Fair enough, just thought I would mention it in case you had forgot.

Wasn't trying to enforce my format on you, just clarifying since Grefter was wondering.
