July 11, 2024Jul 11 What if we combined the two ideas and people had to create an AI song in their pairs? Can still do individual voting as well I would be down for combining these two ideas ^_^ I just need to know if people are actually interested in either a Collaboration spin-off or the combination of Collaboration and a AI Spin-off. Neither will really work in regards to voting if less than 16 want to participate. (Obviously not asking for 16+ people to comment their wish to participate :lol:, but if only two people respond it does not really give me confidence that this is going to work haha)
July 12, 2024Jul 12 I'd enter, I think most people will enter any sort of spin off tbf so you should be fine for numbers
August 28, 2024Aug 28 Agree. Let's do an AI contest. 👍 Still would love to do this …but i was thinking, have we ever had a gimmick/joke song contest? Like not one that’s purely comedy songs, just songs that are very niche and could be considered novelty in the way that say Gangnam Style is.
August 28, 2024Aug 28 I was thinking the other day, have we ever done a spin-off contest with our very own debutant entries?!! I think it could be interesting assuming lots of people will participate!!!
August 28, 2024Aug 28 Oh I love a gimmick, I have a couple of songs that I've even contemplated for the main contest but that sorta thing can DNQ which is why I haven't There's so many good ideas for spin offs, the issue is available hosts with the time to run it - I would do it for sure but I don't have the time in the evenings to do it currently but hopefully at some point I can do something

I think it could be interesting assuming lots of people will participate!!! could it at least be a choice of one of our debut ten entries for those of us with subpar debuts? :thinking:
August 28, 2024Aug 28 a random.org contest where all your songs are put into a draw so you don't actually know what your entry is until the thread goes up
August 28, 2024Aug 28 a random.org contest where all your songs are put into a draw so you don't actually know what your entry is until the thread goes upthe way i thought this was about YBO but you put all your past entries (other than the ones you sent to previous YBO editions) in a draw and your entry is the one that it chooses :lol:

October 28, 2024Oct 28 Some ideas for spin-off contests we could/should do: Some we've done before: - Rejects (long overdue, choose any of your main contest non-qualifiers - as long as they havent been in a previous rejects) - Your Best of (choose any of your main contest finalists - as long as they havent been in a previous YBO - could also be presented as a Second Chances where winning entries are not allowed) - UK Chart Misses (could be any song that failed to go Top 40 in the UK while still charting either in the Top 100 or on the Song Sales chart) - Foreign Languages (non-english songs galore) - Decade Face-Off (previously did 90s vs 00s, could do 80s vs 90s, or 10s vs 20s, etc) - Masquerade (either pretending to be other countries or everyone using a completely new alias - part of the fun is then guessing who's who) Some we haven't done before (to my knowledge): - Your Gold Medalists (choose any fav song that you have awarded top points in a final in BJSC) - Scandipop (basically anything from Sweden, Norway, Denmark, or Scandinavian by proxy" countries like other Nordic countries (Iceland, Finland, Faroes, Greenland) and possibly even the Baltics (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) - RE:cycled (only artist you've sent previously are eligible, with the only restrictions being you can't send songs that have already participated in BJSC/spin-offs) - RE:laxed (basically a BJSC without any veto restrictions at all outside the "one song per artist" rule - what do people send when they can be as cheap as they want?) - Buzzjack Gone Wild (songs about SEX, baby - duh) - Jukebox Hero (a contest with multiple rounds where players submit different songs for each round - kind of like that artist forum face-off we had a few years ago but you're not restricted to any specific artist and can send a song by different artists each round.) just dumping some ideas that popped in my head for no real reasons.

All these are great ideas, and the bold ones I personally like the most! Perhaps if the BJSC moderators would be considerate enough to drop the hosting ban they placed upon me I could offer to present one of these ideas for the community. ^_^
October 28, 2024Oct 28 I'd be happy to host any of the spin-off contests I mentioned if there's interest. Don't know enough about AI generative music to host one of those though.
