I know we have the "Forum Favourites" but I just wanted to see if there would be interest in a monthly/ quarterly contest with a slightly different format.
A few suggested rules:
1. Anyone can enter any of their songs, but only one into each contest. I think this is important, as it allows people to enter rather than wait to be nominated, plus they can enter songs that are truly finished rather than just submitted for critique.
2. We would use the Poll mechanism to collect votes, using some form of Proportional Representation e.g. each voter can vote for up to three songs, equally weighted. This will make counting simple and transparent.
3. Winnings songs get collated into a "Showcase" section (and are perhaps made available on Bandcamp under the UK Songwriting Forum banner).
4. Monthly winner gets to administer the following competition (and cannot enter it).
I would appreciate votes and thoughts.
Thanks,
Kevin
