September 23, 200816 yr Author Oh goodness a week for each is more than enough I'm sure!! Does it have to be a full two weeks after BJSC XI as well? I am pretty sure most people will have all of their nominations in within a couple of weeks from now :rolleyes: I was just saying possibly more than a week for semis depending on what happens regarding those - after all, seeing as some people seem to have trouble enough doing just one semi in a week, two with 40 songs overall in a week may tax them a little possibly :P But anyway, we'll probably do a draw for everyone for who votes in which semi like they did for the Big 4 this year in the ESC. And secondly, there have been rumblings recently that we're beginning to get something of a BJSC overload with an almost constant state of a BJSC, so two weeks will be a break as such, and also this way we're giving two full weeks for people to nominate in ten contests - I'm talking about the non-fanatics here who just pop in occasionally to confirm their entry and just see what's going on. They'll probably be too focused on BJSC XI for us to have the end of BJSC XI as a cut-off point, and two weeks seems like a decent amount of time for people to make their nominations (so you don't need to worry about people feeling alienated seeing as they won't even know if they're in or not for those two weeks ;)).
September 23, 200816 yr Did I mention the title of this contest already? I know I intended to but in order to keep everything fair shouldn't it have a non-biassed name?
September 23, 200816 yr Did I mention the title of this contest already? I know I intended to but in order to keep everything fair shouldn't it have a non-biassed name? you should be flattered :P I think it's a fantastic name...if people don't want the song to win this thing, it won't...
September 23, 200816 yr Did I mention the title of this contest already? I know I intended to but in order to keep everything fair shouldn't it have a non-biassed name? It's not the bias of the name I worry about. I just think it's rubbish :P But if it catches on, it'll catch on I guess. Edited September 23, 200816 yr by Peter30
September 23, 200816 yr And re. the so called "Buzzjack overload" that is nothing to do with the contests being held too often or being started too early. Even if the confirmation thread wasn't opened until 2 weeks after the previous contest had finished, people would still be announcing entries before the final was even over. I just don't like the idea of this contest going on for longer than a regular one, and by the looks of things, it may do.
September 23, 200816 yr I think WYRtWT name is quite witty, interesting and unusual :kink: But really not catchy! Something like Best of Buzzjack, with a tagline *shrugs*

I don't think it'd go on much longer - I think two and a half weeks maximum, most likely two ^_^
September 23, 200816 yr Don't worry Tyron you know I'm just being pernickety :rolleyes: And you also know the real reason I don't want it to go on for too long!! :P
September 23, 200816 yr It'll take however long it takes. The semi and final dates will all depend on how much uni stuff i have going on at the time
September 23, 200816 yr Author Don't worry Tyron you know I'm just being pernickety :rolleyes: And you also know the real reason I don't want it to go on for too long!! :P Don't worry - we'll have BJSC XII in time for Christmas! :lol:
