I vote last when I host

Is there any other way?

 

[Plugger35]

I vote last when I host

Me too, being able to influence the results is one of the perks of hosting, although I still vote with integrity, most of the time.

 

[Morganashlee]

Is there any other way?

I let you win lol

 

[William Wonka]

Everyone thanks you for that.

You did also cost me a win if memory serves

This gig is amazeballs.

 

[ChappyUK]

So we could nominate our own genre to fit our song rather than nominate a song to fit the genres Chappy listed?

Probably should have done this I just thought people might need some guidance and thought we'd get a playlist that was 30 sub-genres of rock or metal.

Don't mention the war. I did once but I think I got away with it.

All good. As is normally the case I was sound asleep when results and theme came out anyway so not like I wanted to be first in with a whore. Picked a genre from the list I knew would be available and I'll be happy with my 5 votes, 5 Billies, 5 from the bottom placing.

 

[Wosh]

I imagine it would have been a difficult round to put together, kudos.

#ThemeIdeas

ThreeForAll - A free for all round where you PM the host with 3 songs, any songs (podiums excepted) and the Host chooses one of your 3 songs

HandsorFeet - songs containg Hands or Feet/foot in the Title

5MinutesorMore - songs 5 minutes or longer

 

[Plugger35]

That last theme could make for a very long playlist unless you put a time limit cap on it, otherwise you will get people nomming 20 or 30 minute songs.

More theme ideas because I can't see myself winning any time soon

* Alchemy... Songs with gold / silver / bronze or other metals in the song title (and maybe lyrics)

* Female Pronouns... Songs with her, she, woman, lady, girl or female names in the title

* Middle East... Songs with a Middle Eastern flavour/artists from the region/songs in Arabic, Persian, Hebrew, Turkish, Kurdish encouraged etc

The first would be a pain in the arse for the host.

Probably would just listen to 30 seconds of songs if they don't know them and then decide.

Yep but most listen to 30 seconds then vote anyway

 

[por_please_ya]

Oooh here's another one which unfortunately could make for a really long playlist....

* Samples.... You nominate two songs, the original song, and then the second one which samples from the first one. (Not a cover, but a sample, like music or the melody etc).
An example could be
Original song: Enya - "Boadicea"
Samples original song: Mario Winans - "I Don't Wanna Know"

*Shrug*

 

[ChappyUK]

When I go back to back my themes will be on of the following.

Melancholy - Songs you like hearing when you're sad.

Natural noises - songs that have samples of natural sounds. waves crashing, birds chirping etc.

How is it a pain? 'ooh I choose this one' about 2 seconds thinking. If a double up is likely to occur, choose another.

Lets not bring Pakenhamsaint into this.
