what you just said; I am already forgetting - Lena Joined: 7 March 2006 Posts: 28,988 User: 18	I have been thinking that some people don't like BJSC because it tends to create only pop winners. How about from the results we have a number of categories such as Best Indie, Best Dance etc. This would give some of the entrance who taste is not pop something to aim at.

Well easily resolved. Tunes go into one of the following... - Pop Music forum - Indie, Alternative and Specialist Forum - Rock, Punk and Metal Forum - Dance Forum - R&B, Hip-Hop and Soul Forum

That removes the contest element and makes it more of a brit awards esque show, so that would be a no vote from this mod. QUOTE(Tom Scissor Kay @ Jul 11 2010, 06:51 PM) With Harve on this. It's a good idea for the next Best Of though Or not, i have the next TBO planned [I'll explain all to the mods when i get a spare hour or two] but this could be a few new categories for the 2010 BJSC awards.
