Question: If we submit songs, do we have to participate in the rankdown? I can submit songs but definitely not the rankdown. I mean, I'm sort of wishing we have the participants to back their own songs here. I don't want 40+ people submitting then only 10 participate in the rankdown lol. But whatever floats your boat! If you don't think you can participate in the rankdown itself but still want to submit, you still can.

Well if 33 people send you lists, it could end up with 99 songs. Didn't like 40 people send lists for the Summer tourney? I feel like even more than that could send lists for this, IDK. Again, first three songs is not concrete. My absolute max is 125, and I hope not to get there, lol.

If you don't think you can participate in the rankdown itself but still want to submit, you still can. On second thought, it could be fun to participate as I'll be competing with everyone else who submitted, like in the other thing. Idk tho. I guess I'll send songs now and wait and see if participating is a good idea.

I know you said that we should not share or say whos song is who. But, during the Rankdown if a song gets out will you post saying who submitted it or not rly?

There will be a catch though. Do not, and I repeat DO NOT tell people the songs you have chose. I have decided I'm going to make this a mystery game as well! After you submit your songs, I'm going to reveal each song in alphabetical order (tentative, I might come up with a better idea), but you won't know who submitted it. You're allowed/encouraged to guess who submitted what, but do not confirm whether or not someone is right. The actual submitter will be revealed when the song comes up in the rankdown. This is to reduce bias in a way. Like, "oh I hate that loser Pollen , so I'm going to tank all of his songs!" Now you can't do that! Please listen to this rule. I'm really looking forward to this. Don't ruin my potential happiness of this going perfect.

this sounds like a really awesome idea. I highly doubt I will do well at this at all but I will participate in it just for the fun of it!

Submitted!
If anyone even considered putting any of the songs from my 1-6 or my 8 on their list, I'll be VERY surprised. My #7 will be picked multiple times though.

What if someone guesses what your songs are? I'm still undecided but I could potentially use artists that are easily traced back to myself lmao.

Hi all! Don't hate me when I say this... I think I'm going to cut off submissions at 34 people, for 102 songs. We are currently at 31 submitters. I think a lot of people like the 3-song idea, and cutting it down to two songs might be removing too much. The reason I'm thinking of cutting submissions off is because you guys are actually using a lot of songs that aren't really popular, so I think if we go too far, people are going to run away from the actual rankdown part. But, I'll let you vote, because I'm such a man of the people. A poll is up that will be expiring tomorrow with three different options: - the aforementioned 34 people allowed and 102 songs.
- I could let us make history by allowing 42 people for 126 songs, becoming the highest number of songs in a rankdown to date.
- Or if there are still a lot of people that want to submit, I could just cut everyone down to two songs and let everyone participate (to get to 100 songs, we'd need 50 people; #math; though that's not like the endgame number).
With all that said, do NOT put in any submissions to my inbox until after everything is decided. Don't try to be cute and submit something thinking no one will know because I won't allow it. I will literally tell you that you're not allowed to submit your own songs if you try to do it. If you have submitted already, you are allowed to change songs, that's fine. Also, you're in the clear if you already submitted so no need to worry about losing a spot. {Tags!} Walking Contradiction Web Troy Red dm2081 Pipa wheatsquares33 Green Baron Lordef†ones Doc Indie Party Rock American Idiot peacebone rainie rockmandattebayo Leaf Leo ✔ janinho .indulgecountry lyhom Sambalada YotamTS willapted33 rgreen0625 rowellfarm490 @jamesflame morneaumispelled Beno zaclord 🌈 matteeeb , .indulgecountry , Mr. Thonk Eyes , Daryl the Beryl , Sambalada , born , awesomecharts , Kanenrá:ke , bboat11 , Au$tin , Az Paynter , Disco🌶️📖 , willapted33 , trustypepper , #LisaRinna , rgreen0625 , someguy , zaclord 🌈 , castleoblivion26 , LBTrocks , edph1 , Willow Rinadoobee Breakfast , Golden Bluebird , @mirza , ry4n , jtd Thee Stallion , Normi , CF15 , Choco , woods , Ice Cream 15 (Broccoli 2018) , crazyb , Beno , boysilver400 , zjames , james518 , Devil Marlena Nylund , nick64 , Raccoon , toomuchboy , bat1990 , Snowbeast , lyhom , frenchfry , †ealsünset , Leaf , Harx , chicken077 , Daniel Collins , musicfan134 , Juan Carlos , Albie , koolthing , Juanca , when the pawn... , Ky , Hurricane Lee , @antigonerising , think pink. , kmbgs , karatekid , bigfan101 , @cagedjuggalo , @humanshazam

Cut everyone down to two songs. A deadline is a deadline and it shouldn't come earlier than expected.

I knew that this would end up happening. Yeah, I didn't really think of it until I realized it was a little too late. I feel bad doing it, but I know that the majority that were going to participate have already submitted (which is the reason for the 42 option since there are people that haven't yet). Plus I know how a lot of you are going to operate on this one if it gets too large. Submitter: "oh, there's too many songs I don't know, so I'm going to pass. Hope my three songs do well!"
