I'm kinda new too..so how does this showdown work?

I know what it is..but how will it work -do you load the poll up on a server or in a chatroom or here on the messageboard?...and the songs are in pairs -right? so you'll be voting one out and one in to the next round, right?...

and..last one - then I'm quiet again - can you vote all day long? midnight- to -midnight?...should be fun!

sorry ;) don't want to annoy you - just don't wanna miss it...

nora


Example.

You'll have about three days to cast your vote, so as long as you're on the 'board at least once every three days you'll miss nothing.

You'll have to set up a b-side one once we have all of the Ode b-sides. :) I think we've had some great b-sides recently. :)

Hmm yeah, maybe next year some time. Ideally I'd like to do it after the next album's singles to make sure we have enough new b-sides for it to be completely different from last time. But people wont want to wait that long lol. The b-side showdown was originally going to be just a one off y'know. ;P

What would anyone say to a Dougie Showdown? It would add a bit of variety and he's got quite a few songs now, and it would be less arduous than a full-blown b-side rerun. It's good to have some space between showdowns anyway, otherwise there's huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge gaps in between.

Yeah a Dougie Showdown could work. The issue would then be about classifying which songs are 'Dougie' songs (Dougie vocals only? Dougie written songs? What about songs co-written by Dougie?). I'll have a think about it anyways.

I'm sure I had a Dougie playlist once, but apparently no longer. Good point. It might be something worth thinking about after a few months of showdown drought :O

Nope it's all the album tracks.

It's not started yet, can't remember if Luke told us when it would... Anyway, it will be a new thread for each round, unless the showdown system has evolved hugely :)

So then everybody writes down his/her top- (don't know..ca.) 50ies? A new order of the songs? Wouldn't it be easier to make a voting - system...with doodle or a similar internet-platform? (I mean easier to elaborate the result - and for the voting itself)
