Caravan Ray wrote: Can I suggest that everyone gives 3 titles. Randomise and distribute - everyone will get titles from a few people - maybe even get one of their own back. And everyone gets 3 to choose from - like old skool SF! That way no one is stuck with just "Circle of Titties"
So I'd randomize all the people/titles and you'd end up with three from different people? I.e. one from me, one from Niveous, and one from irwin? That would be a pain in the ass to randomize, but I'm not fundamentally opposed. You wouldn't get one of your own back, because that would mean there would be potential for a title submitter to not receive a song for one of their titles.
What does everyone else think?

Re: Circle of Titles III
I'm split. I like the idea of choice, but also being 'forced' to use the one that you're given. I guess that I'm no help, but either way. Hmm. But perhaps you'd (Mike) just like to make it easier on yourself?

Re: Circle of Titles III
It'll be a bit more work, sure, but don't let that stop anybody from evaluating the multi-title suggestion on its own merits.

Re: Circle of Titles III
Make it two titles each if you want. It is only matter of drawing a few extra little pieces of paper out of a hat.

Not sure how I'll manage to do it, but I'm in. Song might end up slightly less polished this time.

Re: Circle of Titles III
I'll be eyeing this thread, to see whether we need to come up with multiple titties or not.

Re: Circle of Titles III
OK, if nobody can agree on multiple tiltles, here's the deal - submit multiple titles IF YOU WANT. I will match up the multi-title people with each other.

Re: Circle of Titles III
Maybe I'm missing something here, but if we did multiple titles, wouldn't there be a good chance that some people would have none of their titles used?

Re: Circle of Titles III
That's my main objection, and the primary reason I never listened to C-Ray when I was the one running this fight. That's my vote, but this ain't my show anymore, so however Mike chooses to run it will be fine with me.inevitableguy wrote:Maybe I'm missing something here, but if we did multiple titles, wouldn't there be a good chance that some people would have none of their titles used?

Re: Circle of Titles III
There would always be a 1:1 mapping. Someone will get one of your title(s) no matter what.
Sounds like the prevailing thought is that multiple titles is confusing, though. Since there's no real consensus and a lot of hemming and hawing, and the due date for submitting titles is only a couple days away, let's just stick with the single title for this year. Next year we can do a multi-titty-circle.

Re: Circle of Titles III
Just a gentle reminder that titles are technically due to me tonight (I said "by 3/7") but I'll accept them anytime up until 0700 on Friday March 8th. My goal is to get the titles out to everyone on Friday so you have 4 total weekends to work on your songs.
Cheers,
Mike Lamb

I can't find it now. It's actually done, just terribly as I remember. I feel that giving it to you now would be anticlimactic.Generic wrote:Hey, you still need to finish the last title you got!Billy's Little Trip wrote:I sent in a few Herschel'esque titles.

Re: Circle of Titles III
Lots of entries between last night and this morning, cool! I think we're up to 13 or something. In time-honored tradition, and because I am not going to be able to get sorting and randomizing today like I'd hoped (stupid !@# work), I'll extend the title submission deadline to 09:59AM tomorrow, Saturday, March 9th. I'll try my best to get the titles sent out tomorrow afternoon.

Re: Circle of Titles III
Ah, yes, the traditional deadline creep.
Although I think I've usually slid the deadline back for the songs, but not the titles. Heh.
