Bollocks to them.

Agreed, do what you like.
It may not get as many votes but at lest you will be happy with it. No point in producing something you don't enjoy yourself.. It's just for fun after all.

It ocurred to me as we're halfway to the deadline, that some aspects of the contest should be defined such as what format and rate the finished production should be at.
will it be an anonnymous list of tracks to be downloaded when the voting begins?I think this is the way to go but wonder as how or who is gonna handle this part without having an unfair advantage such as knowing who made what and what the tracks sound like beforehand.
thoughts?

It will be anonymous as stated :) As for the format i don't i don't think it's anything to get stressed about; 192 kbps mp3 will do, for peoples convenience :)

Remember, you're going for crowd appeal here ;)
True...
Well I'm doing a correspondance Uni course (first year stats, not too bad) that I have to finish within 3 weeks. The course is 21 weeks long :P. So I'm probably not gonna have an entry, unless I can manage to finish a song within the last week. We'll see how things go...

Alright I finished my track. What do I do now? Send it to bulby_g?
Oh and btw: If you really want to make it anonymous, don't forget about mp3 tags
Anyway I would rather make it not anonymous cause I wanna swear at my opponents when I hear their produced masterpieces

I'm going to need a link for peoples tracks sent through to me by the end of this month. Please upload to an FTP and send a direct link, this is the only acceptable way to enter your track. Please speak to Dain-Ja if you don't know how/can't do this as he has very kindly volunteered to help.
All tracks must be 128kbps
Please don't have your name in the file or file name as we want to have anon voting
Everyone getting on OK then? I've had some time off work and managed to actually get something together now so I should have something that's at least nearly finished. :)
What do people think is a decent bit rate to use for these and do you think we should be uploading edits or complete tracks for voting on?

imo.... 128kbps, to discourage unscrupulous theft and improve speed of download and
Full Track, to prevent people submitting 'the best bit' of an otherwise dodgey track which would mislead voters.
