Ah, my bad. In that case, that seems a bit unfair. Not everyone wins as much as others, so why should they have to be punished just cos others win a lot? |

Of course, on your first won contest, you get to host the next |

Yes, but the fact that the same 3 people win this comp over and over again really makes me wonder why I even bother anymore. |
I think Sand Leaper chairs a committee on this exact topic!
My suggestion a few months ago I still think is the best. I'll rework it a little so that it comes out like this:
Every 4/5th Round is a "Fun Round" where everyone gets to submit 3-5 tracks (depending on how many different people submit) into a group ID pool. Some sucker then gets to run it. (You can't submit IDs for your own tracks to keep things simple). The winner just gets bragging rights. I think this didn't take off because of inertia. Oh well, if inertia wins again, it don't bother me.
As for normal rounds? Well they should stay normal. If the same people win, then the same people win. I think this would be a problem if there was strong evidence that for instance 2 people with identical taste were just passing the victory back between each other (because they could easily identify each others tracks), but that doesn't seem to be the reason why people win. ID + SL just seem to go naturally together :D
Did I mention that ID + SL just go naturally together yet? |

Exactly.
Common people, it's just a game :p Just participate and try your best, and if you win, you run the next contest, if you don't well better luck next time, there's always other tunes in each contest. I can't see all the fuss about this. |
