Song Contest Part XVI, Host: The Filth Wizard, Theme: How Do I Title This?, Votes Due: Sunday 10pm AEST

[Plugger35]

Looks like the likes have it.

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

Mob rule always ignores precedent when it's convenient to them.

Sounds like a book I know

 

[ChappyUK]

Yes we know you like electronica

I don't mind some hip hop but Australian hip hop is totally shit.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Suspecting a contestant may or may not be someone is bullshit.

ND thought Nathan was my benny just now and Grey crow accused me of being Dubz not long ago ffs.

Seems to me unless his account is suspended its not our business or concern who he or she is

It's not who he is, it's the theme that so many have a problem with.

• You're potentially nomming 10 different songs (one for each person).
• The round is too long, especially given current circumstances
• There's simply too much going on with the theme. I understand what to do but it's over the top. Splitting us into different groups to decide a winner doesn't truly represent who will win a round. Some themes can have quirks (such as the gift-giving types) but this is too extreme. It's like a milkshake, some cafes go over the top by adding doughnuts, hundreds and thousands, biscuits and all of these other sugary sweetness that will no doubt cause diabeetes. A classic chocolate milkshake is really the way to go.

I'm only speaking from my opinion of course, if it was a simple theme, we'd be more than happy to let Nathan host.

So we vote on every theme now?

 

[Hoos]

Who the **** is Tornado Wallace?

 

[Loonerty]

So we vote on every theme now?

Just the ones that are a fundamental change to the format.

 

[NinjaSwan]

I don't mind some hip hop but Australian hip hop is totally shit.

There's some good stuff where it's more subtle but in general the Australian accent sounds awful when rapping.

 

[The Speaker]

Honestly I don't really care if it's him or not... but don't troll us with a ridiculous theme most people don't want to participate in. Making a mockery of the contest. Yeah it shouldn't be serious all the time but it needs a proper structure or it falls apart.

We do have a proper structure - the general rules are listed in the OP. There is nothing in there that prevents the user Nathan Fake from hosting, and nothing that prevents more than one nomination taking place. The only argument that I think has some merit to it is that there is meant to be a public nomination posting and playlist from the host, which may not happen under this structure. But I am the first person to mention this as an argument against the round.

 

[William Wonka]

Once again.
SarahSmiles is hosting a regular round right here

Well yes there is if he's a banned poster which it seems likely he is.

 

[NinjaSwan]

If say 24 people enter that's 264 songs nommed total and it gets exponentially higher the more players you get, seems like it could get out of hand pretty quickly.

 

[SM]

If it is him I'm annoyed with him for trolling us with this stupid theme.

I'd rather a full blown rnb/rap round again than this stupidity.

Even Wonka themes aren't this extreme.

Have you ever met Josh?

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

So we vote on every theme now?

Only the ones that drastically change the format. There's been many themes I haven't enjoyed (I'm not a fan of genre-themes for instance) but they still follow the traditional structure.

 

[Loonerty]

Anyway I don't actually care about the "banned poster" thing.
It's the trying to hide it and doing it really poorly.

And also the shit theme idea.

Which is a complete deviation from the structure. Yes hosts have the right to pick themes but come on... be reasonable about it. How in the hell will the results release go?! It'll all be based on completely different songs which is just weird! You don't get a song winning, but you get a nommer winning? What in the hell.

 

[The Speaker]

There is only speculation. If he's a banned poster, his alias will be banned in due course. As it stands right now, he isn't.

 

[_Rake_]

FFS it's not Wood.
Hoos said so, move on.

Karma by 1200 Techniques is great, the accent isn't noticeable at all.

That's Nathan to you.

 

[SM]

That's Nathan to you.

Sorry.

 

[William Wonka]

You are absolutely correct, I was just bagging techno

 

[por_please_ya]

Have you ever met Josh?

Yes I have actually. Really lovely guy. Completely different to his JWS persona.
