It doesn't require too much work to be honest. Well, unless you reach the final I suppose...


I still need one more participant!

I'm in! (I know nobody knows who I am, but I've lurked here for years.)

 

[funky]

Well this will be interesting! Thanks @RJN

[Iguana]

I have pinned this thread in anticipation of something HAPPENING

 

[funky]

Right! For my 16 wonderful contestants...

I’ve figured out the rules and stuff I’m still just figuring out how to format into threads etc so I don’t hijack the forums... so bear with.

In the meantime, can you PRIVATE MESSAGE ME your playlist theme CHOICE (and second choice) for round one.

- you will be sent a follow up message about what’s next - no songs required yet just choose which playlist theme you want
- you will be paired with people who choose the same theme as you so I’ll then reveal the brackets
- in case there are any odd numbers, please provide a second choice
- if you don’t message me by Wednesday you’ll be assigned a theme.

any problems I’ll message you.

Good luck!

ROUND ONE THEME CHOICES:

• 80s pop icons
• 90s pop icons
• Girls with guitars
• Girl bands and boy bands
• Best of British
• UK Top 40 Dance
• 90s Britpop and Grunge

how does the pairing work? we collaborate on a playlist or its ours vs. theirs?

 

[funky]

You’re pitted against each other... 8 matches of 2 moopers each :emoji_crossed_swords:

 

[funky]

A TOTAL mix of theme choices too so far... which is good!

I worry that my choices mean I may be setting myself up for a grudge match with people who are normally my allies in these contests.

 

[Kate]

Oh god what I thought you were choosing. RIGHT

It didn’t turn me away

 

[Loufoque]

Loving the concept.

FYI, I will be voting down any playlists not featuring a Mariah Carey deep-cut.

 

[funky]

Wow! Everyone has picked their themes, that was quick.

I’ll be following up shortly with your selected theme, will stick to choices as much as possible. Stay tuned...

 

[Loufoque]

Loving the themes btw. Ms funky giving the gays everything they want.
