There will be no exceptions for DJ entry, however exceptions will be made if people are having problems uploading with slower connections. My suggestion is to send your mix to somebody with a fast connection for them to upload.
Mixes must be submitted in 160kbps Mp3 quality, CBR or VBR, no Mp3-Pro files are allowed.
Mixes must be 60 to 80 minutes in length
You may mix with:
1. Mp3s in Real Time (Traktor was the most used for the last one)
All DJs must state how they have made their set, ie which program used.
All mixes must be recorded live, no using multiple mixes and sticking the best transitions together.
You may plan and practise your mix, but not to the point that it becomes robotic.
All mixes must be uploaded with a tracklist, a cue sheet would also help. You may combine both into the cue sheet, but remember not all CD writers support that type of cue sheet so be careful when burning.
Contestants may not also be a judge, you have the choice to be either, not both.
You may not download other contestants mixes.
You must mix trance, this rule bends as far as progressive and hard trance. Contestants will be disqualified for extended use of non-trance music.
Mixes will be marked on the following categories:
a) Track selection and play order
b) Beat-matching
c) Transition harmonics
All sections contain 25 marks, no section is worth more than another.
A percentage will then be calculated from these three areas to give a better comparison.
You must actually mix to gain marks, snapping together of tunes is not allowed. That is not really DJing.
All judges will have to be appoved by me and will only be accepted as long as nobody else has any problems. Judges must take this duty to mix seriously. All mixes must be marked on skill and the way the contestant progresses their mix, NOT ON PERSONAL OPIONION OF THE CONTESTANT OR THE SONGS HE WISHES TO MIX. Although contestants must abide by the tracklist rules.
Judges and Administrators have the right to reserve and change/ammend these rules.

but if you need some more people who have a good ear for mixing....I'll be your boy 
Not to piss anyone off but that really doesn't show true talent. I would rather have someone give me a mix that they tried 500 millions times trying to make and put effort into it, instead of someone handing me a mix they just slapped together in 30 mins. But that's just me
