    Well if we're going to have three judges ala American Idol, can I be the real mean one?

    Sounds fun. You could have everyone sing the same song for review. (Personally want to hear people singing the uncensored version of "Get low.") Going to be tough replicating the spontaneous nature of the show though. Maybe have contestants do theirs live on ventrillo? :p

    It's a popular voice conference program used a lot by multiplayer gamers. Works sort of like a walkie talkie network.

    I do like the idea of using such a program. ^_^

    Does anyone have a recomendation as to what server to use to upload a recording to? I'm having trouble with that currently.

    There's your answer as far as MP3 hosting goes. Note that you are NOT allowed to upload whatever mp3 you want; it can't be a commercial one and so forth. So please only use it to host mp3s you and friends make; not the latest Eminem CD rip.

    Well we could use Ventrillo, but then we would have to find a good time for all the judges to listen to people. And considering that we're all on different time zones and some of us have to work, this will be hard. I suggest using a voice recorder such as Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/), uploading the voice file zipped to a webserver and linking to it. So then everyone can listen to it freely..

    If the files are zipped then people can upload them easily to a tripod/angelfire or geocities site.

    You sure you don't want moderators to join in the competition? It's not like being a mod automatically makes a person a great singer, or anything..

    I'd actually submit something, but the prospect of being a judge and hearing everything sounds so fun!

    That's a fact. :p I peel paint. :D I'm thinking she thinks we could just delete the posts of everyone who's a better singer than us. :p

    Anyway, if it doesn't get started until after the end of the month (when I get back home) I'd love to be the third judge. If not, well, no matter.

    EDIT: And yes, judging does sound fun. :anime:

    Thank you for the suggestions. ^_^

    So, now we have Nephy and That Guy! as our judges...

    I am guessing Shinryu would like to take the part as the third judge. ^_^ This is great! Thanks so much, guys.

    I call dibs on being the mean judge.

    Shinryu and That Guy! get to fight over the "blunt but honest" judge and the "very nice, slightly sugarcoated" judge.

    I would like to, but as is right now, I can't listen to music files. I can't judge anything until I get back home. May 30th, like it says in my sig. Is that ok? Or do you need a different third judge?

    Actually. I didn't plan to start till June anyway. If that's alright with everyone else.

    I think that it is a serious thing. I'm being serious about this anyway. Having this as a reality of course.

    With That guy!'s request, I have added a new Music sub-forum for contests and games. Moving this there now.

    *Girly scream*

    We made it.

    *sniff*

    Waa haha...*sniffle*

    Okay. I'm done. I'm happy.
    -------------------------------------------------------------

    Edit:

    Okay. This mainly concerns myself, and the judges participating. There aren't any secrets or anything so here goes;

    I am thinking of maybe having everyone who wants to participate work on their samples now, and having them all in by June 1st.

    I am not sure as to how the entries should be turned in. Maybe through e-mail? They shouldn't be viewed by anyone but the judges, and the participant...

    I'm very clueless as to how this is going to work.
