Let's try something different, shall we ? In the poll above choose what you think are the 8 best songs from the past week. There are 16 choices up there, to accomodate as many of the quality songs as I could fit (and this was only on the first two pages). At the end of the week, a winner will be declared, and a new round will start. Have fun! Videos are below.

Yeah, hard to choose though.

Just a trivial observation, but if some are giving a vote for 8 videos and some are only voting on 2-3 videos, it really messes up any sort of scale to determine a winner.
What I just said above is completely pointless anyways unless there is some sort of reward/prize for winning the contest each week.

Cypher I can see your point, but I'd say that would affect the worse videos more than the better ones. And I did say to choose the 8 best songs, so it's not like it isn't stated. But I can't control how people vote. A prize system probably wouldn't work out anyway, considering not every composer posts at MPH (as is the case with one of the people in 1st place right now). And I'm going try to trim the choices a little next time - there were really a large number of good pieces this week, but I can see I went a tad overboard.

lol, you spelt my name wrong
But I'm glad to be on this list anyway ^_^
Also, maybe limit the voting to 6 or 4. 8 is a bit much IMO.

First prize for non MPH members is free membership Cypher Nice prize. In reply to this topic, though... this may need some reworking... not everyone posts videos every week (me included) but otherwise, the system works out fine.

@ Lihyahm - I'll limit votes next time to 5 next time. Ans sorry about your name @ RehdBlob - Unfortunately, that's something I can't fix. It's based on quality over frequency (which is why I only included one video per person). And the person with the highest quality video is almost guaranteed the win. TeG doesn't post videos often, but when he does, he'll most likely pwn anyone else. So, it doesn't decrease your chances in any week that you have a video, but you'll just get less opportunitues to win. It's not totally fair, but it's just not possible to make it fair.

Should I make a prize system for this or just do this for fun like the Rate the Composer? I've decided that the winners are at least going to get put into a playlist on YouTube, and most likely get a cookie of their choice ( ) but I'm not sure if I should add anything else.

I think a play list is a great and unique idea, plus it gives the MPC community more positive exposure and shows that we are here and not going anywhere. We are obviously a pretty creative bunch I bet we can think of other things too. I still think the voting system needs revamp though, out of the 12 people that voted, we lost 28 votes somehow -_-.
