Re: Frenzies Live On!!
Indeed. But let's say, for the sake of argument, that Reist would prefer to divert all that traffic to his own website. That's a somewhat understandable goal.
"Get to You" had two participants and one vote. Short of bringing the Frenzies to the Songfight forum, how could Reist increase participation and votes?

Re: Frenzies Live On!!
My guess is that by now Andrew has an idea of who has participated and/or expressed interest in the past - getting some e-mail addresees and sending an e-mail might help, rather than counting on people finding it on the forums at the right time.

Re: Frenzies Live On!!
Ah, but with the much-discussed 'subscribe' feature of the forums, an e-mail is already sent to anyone who wants one -- whenever a new event is posted in the forum.

Re: Frenzies Live On!!
Well, that "subscribe" feature only tells you when a Frenzy has been scheduled. If a frenzy has been scheduled for a time that I can't participate, then it's not likely to occur to me to check ummband.com for the songs when they go up... unless someone prods me to do so once they're there.
I think (and this holds true to Songfight as well) that listening/reviewing/voting is just going to be very low among non-participants. Still, we ought to be able to muster more than one vote.

Re: Frenzies Live On!!
Hey guys.
The skirmishes of yesteryear had a decent turnout by the looks of it. Maybe you can take a leaf out of that book re: timing and length of warning and means of information dissemination? I, of course, was not around then so I have no idea how they actually worked.

Re: Frenzies Live On!!
Reist is doing it almost exactly the same, except that the Skirmishes didn't have their own message board, so all of the notification and voting was done here on the Songfight.net BB. I think that explains the higher voter turnout, but if you want to get more entrants, then I don't know.supremeedible wrote:Maybe you can take a leaf out of that book re: timing and length of warning and means of information dissemination?

Re: Frenzies Live On!!
I'm getting this feeling that having a separate forum for frenzies is a poor idea. However, I don't want the sidefight section to get flooded with annoying threads that are like 3 posts long. But yeah, moving frenzies to SF would be a decent idea, I think.Generic wrote:Reist is doing it almost exactly the same, except that the Skirmishes didn't have their own message board, so all of the notification and voting was done here on the Songfight.net BB.

I baleeted the spambot. Should frenzies recommence? On this board perhaps? If we run it here, then we can self-host our own songs. Then frenzies can happen a lot faster.
