Posted May 23, 201015 yr http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/5177/bjsc27banner.jpg The rules; > There are a couple of major changes this month so read carefully. You are now permitted to nominate up to 5 songs for banning, this is of course up to you and you can still nominate 1, 2, 3 or 4 or indeed none as you wish. As another reaction to the cheapcheapcheap leakathon marathon that has been May, you are also allowed to nominate 1 artist who's entire forthcoming/current era you wish to be banned from the contest. This will come in handy either for cheap artists who don't have an artist forum yet OR artists with an artist forum whose whole album could really do with a banning seeing as most people here will hear it anyway without the aid of the contest. PM me (gooddelta) with these nominations. To sum up, that's 5 songs and 1 artist MAXIMUM. > You can ban anything you like basically but it makes more sense to ban cheapness, I'm sure you all have songs in mind that fall into this category already. But please don't nominate something that is obviously inspired just because you don't want to see it in the contest for some reason or another. > This stage of the competition is optional. If you don't wish to take part you don't have to. > A song/era needs three votes to be banned from BJSC Twenty Seven. I will announce how many each song got at the end but not before so it is likely that many of you will be voting for the same songs. This is good, as it will only stop the really uninspired choices from being eligible for the contest. > The deadline for nominating on the banlist is Sunday 30th May at 7pm so you have a whole week to vote. I will accept amendments to your nominations should you nominate early and wish to change them later in the week if something OMGCHEAP leaks. The next stage of the contest, artist reservation, is currently scheduled to open later that evening, at some point between 7pm and 9pm so keep that date in your diaries for the big live Elin Lanto showdown. These songs and artists are already banned from BJSC Twenty Seven and thus do not need to be nominated, should you nominate any of these I will rebound your PM and ask you to vote again; - Alexandra Burke w/ Pitbull - All Night Long - Chipmunk; Esmee Denters - Until You Were Gone - Gabriella Cilmi - Hearts Don't Lie - Mika vs. RedOne - Kick Ass - Scissor Sisters - Invisible Light - Any song by Sheelah - Any song by Kelis - Any song by Jasper Forks - And additionally from this month any song from Glee Cast And if any of you did try to send All Night Long or Until You Were Gone, I may question your sanity :kink: You are also not allowed to nominate (seeing as they are ineligible anyway) the first two singles of the current era of any artists with a Buzzjack artist forum or involved as part of a group one (yes that means you Natasha Bedingfield/Christina Aguilera/Kylie Minogue/Kelly Rowland) or any Eurovision entries past, present, or future although songs that did not win their national final are still very much allowed! Get BANNING!
May 23, 201015 yr Author I'm getting a few nominations already for songs that have already been sent to BJSC before...although I suppose that's fair enough considering some participants are new and the 'songs of' thread is slightly out of date. But if you do do this, I'll reply and ask if you want to switch it for anything else.
May 23, 201015 yr I might get involved in the Elin Lanto fight, and arrange a time to let go of her with whoever bribes me the most :kink: EDIT: And Rich is blatantly trying to get us to nominate "Dancing On Your Own" by Robyn :smoke: Or was that the Robyn song sent a couple of editions ago? :unsure: Edited May 23, 201015 yr by bigzarafan

May 23, 201015 yr Oh i've nommed btw. And Rich, don't forget to let people know there is a full ban on any Glee song being entered. (Sorry 'Bad Romance'/'Poker Face'/'I Dreamed a Dream' fans :drink:)
May 23, 201015 yr Author I've so far had about 4 people nominating The Boy Who Murdered Love by Diana Vickers - poor Torchwood, it's been forgotten about already even despite coming top ten :drama: Oh i've nommed btw. And Rich, don't forget to let people know there is a full ban on any Glee song being entered. (Sorry 'Bad Romance'/'Poker Face'/'I Dreamed a Dream' fans :drink:) Did the mods officially carry this motion forward? I'll put it in the 'rules' but if it's not been passed let me know and I'll edit.
May 23, 201015 yr Author 5 songs and 1 artist have been banned so far :lol: I'm not saying who they are, but I wouldn't say I'm surprised at any of them.

May 23, 201015 yr I should stay out of this, I don't really know any big popular British pop songs that need to be banned.
May 23, 201015 yr 'The Boy Who Murdered Love'? :kink: I was about to nominate it, but I remembered haha. I didn't nominate it as I'd thought of five others, but I did say in my PM to Rich that I hope others nominate it because it's also cheap :P
May 23, 201015 yr I'll do my nominations near the end of the period in case any currently unknown new tracks off the radar suddenly appears on the internet.
May 23, 201015 yr It seems a bit alarming that we got 5 songs and 1 artist banned in three hours. Hopefully the increased amount of nominations doesn't make things too easy to get banned. I don't plan to nominate. But if there's something that seems a threat, that comes after most have nominated, I might consider it.

I don't plan to nominate. But if there's something that seems a threat, that comes after most have nominated, I might consider it. I wouldn't worry too much, those 5 songs were completely obvious (to me) and would all I'm sure be almost universally agreed to be utterly pointless BJSC entries. Put it this way, aside from those 5 songs already banned, the other 14 songs have 1 nomination each so far and none of them are songs I would have thought of nominating so clearly apart from the really obvious cheapness, we all have completely different views on what we don't want to see in the contest! I'd be surprised if more than 10 tracks get banned overall. Obviously if some of the banned tracks are arguably not deserving to be there, the new system can be deemed a failure and returned to 3 nominations next month.
May 24, 201015 yr I'll do my nominations near the end of the period in case any currently unknown new tracks off the radar suddenly appears on the internet. Incredible. Even I did not think that in just over 24 Hours later three new songs would fit this criteria have appeared.
May 24, 201015 yr Incredible. Even I did not think that in just over 24 Hours later three new songs would fit this criteria have appeared. Can I ask what they are? Because I haven't discovered any of those three yet :unsure:
May 24, 201015 yr Author Have I missed something, I didn't notice any new leaks today :o Is Ne-Yo one of them? I thought only a clip was out so far...
