I assume that I'll do what I normally do, made some interesting picks, be and early front runner and flame out spectacularly trying to be too cute for my own good

Alright. The list of songs used from last competition is up; you cannot use those at all. However, in the interest of competition, all artists used in the last competition CAN be reused.

Put me on the list of Contestant, but will judge if needed I mean, I'm the originator of this game and I never even made it past what 9th or 10th place?

Can't wait either, WS3K.
Cageking, welcome to the competition.
We're now @ 10 participants, but are still woefully short on judges. I need 2 more before we can even try to begin the first round.

I'm in as judge. But I also agree that 16 participants should be used. I was waiting back to see what the interest level was going to be first before I decided how to jump aboard.
Hopefully we'll have a near-16-person roster by Oct. 1.

Haha, I said I'd play in the last thread, but forgot to say so here. Yeah I'm in.
Lost badly last time, second regular elimination (I think) while the other winners went 3rd and 2nd place. Time to prove my worth.

I've never even heard of this game before until I received the PM (I barely visit this section anymore), I don't get how it's played. Someone wanna fill me in? Season 1 launched the career of Widow's Peak. Season 2 introduced the world to Pegasuswarrior. Season 3 was Veronica Sawyer's time to shine. Season 4 saw the rise of first-timer Square. Season 5 was Z-A Sandbaggin' Son-of-a-#&*$@ in the driver's seat. Is that name yours? It could be, IF you can survive the most greuling music competition known to man. Ladies and gentlemen, THIS... is the sixth season... of Wrestlecrap Idol! It's that time again. If you think your musical tastes are the best on the board, then this contest is for you. Your mission: given a specific category, select the best song that you can think of. Score well enough with the judges, and you'll advance to the next round. Do poorly, and it's game over. Aside from round-specific rules, there are a few rules that apply to the entire contest: 1) Songs selected in Wrestlecrap Idol Season 5 are NOT eligible to be selected in ANY round of this competition. (Full list on page 1). All artists are eligible to be selected, provided their selection follows Rule 2.) 2) Except for any 'second chance' round, artists selected in previous rounds of this competition may NOT be selected by ANY competitor in ANY future rounds. (If someone selects a Lady Gaga song in Round 2, all of her songs are off limits for everyone for the rest of the competition. 3) If any contestant fails to submit their choice before the deadline, they will automatically receive last place points for the round. If they fail to submit twice in a row, they are automatically eliminated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ (All of that paraphrased and edited from a previous season introduction to the game.)

So you're given a specific category, you have to pick a song that falls under that category (can't pick a song from the last competition, but only the artist IF any of their songs weren't already picked in the current competition), and you get points based on your choice.
Did I get that right?

Yes, each song choice gets a ranking from each of the 3 or 4 judges. Points are assigned based on the rankings. Eliminations go to the lowest ranking each elimination round.
Basically, the round is announced and posted. Then you PM your song choice via YouTube (or whatever other media outlet you want to link to) to Phil Ken Sandman. He PMs all the song choices out to judges so that rankings are anonymous. We PM him our rankings and then everyone tunes in for the "Results Show" in the thread.
