I personally like my scale. It sounds more... right.
100=PERFECT COMPOSER!
90=Awsome Composer
80=Great Composer
70=Good Composer
60=Not bad...
50=Below Average
40=Bad
30=Gross
20=Terrible
10=ARRGH! My EARS!!
0=Death to my ears

40 as in "Improving from extreme n00b to average". Sorry I didn't specify earlier.
God, that's another one....

I don't think a scale will be easy to implement unless you plan on having multiple tournaments. I would limit the divisions to three: Amazing (and believe me there are a lot of those) Great, and Good/Average. Then, I'd hold three tournaments a week. Maybe give them each their own sub-forum too, to prevent confusion.

After looking over some of the Rate the Composer results I don't see a problem. All of the composers that got 90 and above are awesome  |

Here's a thought:
Categorize based on what the composers use:
Original Soundfont
Dickspeed
Arranged Soundfonts (Real, Orchestra, Real Symphony, Electronica, etc.)
Custom Soundfonts (Anything goes)
...and so forth, more could be added, but I know there are various composers here who would fall under those specific categories, even if there are those who use dickspeed and arranged soundfonts (Balloon for example). But we know there are a few who use the original soundfont and have various songs under their belt to prove it.
What about a panel of non-biased judges who will judge the two competing composers out of 10 for a set of categories? (soundfont use, glitch/volume use, tempo use, diversity in composing, etc.)
I figure we could have a few of the veteran members here (Tiger, Levus, Cat, Ninja, Guru, Brian) be the judges, and build up on this a bit. This is just throwing out another idea that we can work through to come up with something that will work for the coming tournament and future rounds afterwards.

If we're still doing this by song, then that's a good idea. ^^ |

I'd willingly be in the panel of judges. However, I think there should be a distinct separation between what the judges do and what the public does. For example, the public could vote between two songs, while the judges decide on what they feel is best. Or the judges could analyze the composer while the public votes on the songs. I still think the public should decide the mashups, as it's a fair and democratic system, and it provides for some interesting competitions, like this week's.

AND DO IT BY VOTE! Because I'm extremely bias notYeah, I like the categories you've put out so far, but, as you stated, a lot of people fall under multiple categories. Therefore, maybe the categories would contain attributes such as dickspeed and the soundfont. For example, Category A would be original sf, low tempo. B; original sf, dickspeed. C; preset sf, low tempo et cetera et cetera et cetera. Bah, but this all just standardizing things. Just one question that I am getting confused over. Are we judging by song or overall? (u c wat i did there) |

(u c wat i did there) Judging should be reserved for the overall composer instead of the song that the composer chose. Also, I think you're onto something with the categories, it might work out that way. A: Original composers (Tempo 1000 and below, nothing but original soundfont, or uses SNES sequencer) B: Original Dickspeed composers (using dickspeed, but limited only to using the original soundfont) C: Arranged soundfont composers (any who uses Orchestra, Plus, Real, Real Symphony, Electronica, etc.) D: Arranged Dickspeed composers (Same as C, but uses Dickspeed to add a more complete and near-realistic songs) E: Original composers (those who compose original songs) F: Jack-of-all-trades (varies from original to arranged soundfonts, sometimes will use Dickspeed) Good for a start I suppose. |

A: Original composers (Tempo 1000 and below, nothing but original soundfont, or uses SNES sequencer) Would RC no longer fit that category? |

Wait, so I go under "Arranged Dickspeed"?

If the majority of your compositions fall under a specific category, then that's where you'll be placed. RC would still be Category A in this sense. Balloon would be Category D, since the majority of his works involve arranged soundfonts and dickspeed.

I'm confused, where would I fall? Would I fall under F, or C?
