Perhaps if we did it more like the show?

Each contestant submits a short, 30 second vocal acapella clip and the judges choose the top 20 or so that move onto the actual competition?

Just a suggestion ^_^

That actually might not be a bad idea; having a preliminary round.

I also agree. This is starting to get popular and 30+ contestants sounds like a lot to judge on the first round.

I thought Larto already wrote that down...He said if there was a lot of people signing up, he'd do that.

...Is this not enough people? XD

I find it stupid that people from the previous round joined this one..

Then again, this one has a completely different system. So whatever. (As long as after this it isn't like that :p)
Krisom
Well, at least the winners from this one should not join the following one (considerig that there will be an osu!idol 3)
Maybe as judges?
Meh, I don't stand a chance against the top 3 of the old round, but whatever :v

Alright, peppy also talked to me about that. Winners from the previous osu!Idols should not compete anymore for a bit. I will obviously not kick out any of the current contestants, but in the future osu!Idols, you shall not be allowed to join anymore if you got to the last and to the second to last rounds. However this still depends on who will do osu!Idol 3~ I don't think I will =3

And yes, seems like this is going to be a preliminary round!

I think that's a bad policy, considering that this is a competition for the fun of the competitors and the entertainment of the audience. The prize for winning, while nice, isn't going to be anybody's reason for entering. They're entering because they want to have fun. This would be similar to having a bowling league and kicking out the best team every season, which seems a little awkward to me. It also encourages people to drop out early on purpose if they want to continue singing in the next season, which again, eliminates the fun for them.
Powerdrone
I don't know about everyone in the last round necessarily, but for sure not the winner.

No one's telling you you can't sing or have fun, just that you aren't eligible for the prize.

I don't think the preliminary round should be themed. That way, everyone gets the chance to sing what they want and show their best side seeing as a bunch of them won't make it through.
Sleep Powder
If its not themed then I can record earlier~
KoromoAmae
I would be perfectly content with forfeiting the prize in subsequent seasons, just so long as I can still participate and have fun.

Personally I think that previous winner should be able to still participate but just not win the prize o_O

So, the prelim round was confirmed right? There's no theme so we can start recording?

You need to realise that if you allow the same people to enter every competition, you will end up with the same people in the final rounds. This is just logical. While it is a competition for fun, I believe this will get relatively boring over time from a spectating/judging point of view. You'll see what I mean after a few competitions ;).
Sweagen
Guys I wanna enter again, last time was really fun, so I'mma enter and send a voice clip?? :D

And idk about the rule where people who got near the end aren't allowed to enter subsequent competitions, that just sounds kinda lame... No one should ever be excluded from fun singing competitions.

I thought of bringing the number of participants down to 20...

So, ~10 people?

But yeah, I'll write everything the participants need to know down today evening, when the registration time ends.

Bring it down to 21 or 20, yeah. Keep it a solid, predetermined number.

You'll have some no-shows for the preliminaries if it's anything like last time. The number of people eliminated due to performance should be really small because of that.

Haha I dunno... waiting is definitely the most tense part of Osu Idol, but it gives you time to wonder what other peoples are whipping up.

And Idk why my post count is still 0 :|

Dropping out, realizing that October is going to be one hectic month even without this going on.
Lanttu
How can it even be possible to get sick before something like this? ;_;

Going to wait till saturday and see if this goes away.. If not, then I have to send one bad clip I recorded yesterday, lol~
Garven
Seems like a bunch of people are getting sick anyway, so it'll be a fairly even field. I think.
Derekku
I'm always sick for one reason or another :C

I have a nice song picked out, so I'll see if I can record tomorrowish.
Hamuko
i'll prolly sing the song that got me out of season 1
Sleep Powder
Can you specify what exact time the recordings are due? The PM states that they are due 6 days and 22 hours after the notice. The PM only says "Posted 4 days ago". Unless the post here announcing registration is close to the time you've distributed the PMs I'll be using that time to find what the exact time they are due.

Reason: I'm recording on Sunday

( I feel like I'm still in my college classes lol o_o )

Entry submitted, now to wait to see just how embarrassed I get to be.

are you gonna change the deadline in the original post? I just want some consistency is all.
Hopefully I can get mine done before the 15th ;(

I'll be practicing my English singing later cuz I somehow suck at it (even though its my first language)
Garven
Woo, that means we're at 50% saturation for entries. Get your submissions in!

I'll sent it tomorrow..(Oct 15th GMT 14:00)

I only have little time :(

Even if the deadline is alredy over, the judging won't be so quick x_x

Hm? Deadline isn't for another 2 1/2 hours.

I was kinda sick yesterday and slept most of the evening, so I'll try and finish my recording this morning. D:!

Sented~ :D

Now it's 15:31:21(GMT)
2.5 hours to go :)

Should have sent in one of your vent freestyles.
Ekaru
Someone remind me again why I belted into the microphone a song I knew from my childhood and submitted that as an entry without even listening to it first. Especially when there were songs I practiced a lot that I could have sung instead.

Then again it's getting some laughs (for all the wrong reasons) so it worked out in a really weird, fucked-up way.
eee
I tried, I really did, but this A capella stuff was difficult.
I should have to time to listen to the entries and monitor the game.
good luck guys (turnout was amazing, even though deadline had to be extended)
KoromoAmae
Eagerly awaiting the first theme. I hope it's an interesting one.

I want to know but I don't want to know. OH THE SUSPENSE!
A capella was freaking hard. I was like ... ack! My voice! D:

No, there's no language restriction. You can sing in the language of the Bo and still have your entry accepted (and yes, I'm dead serious. Ask Larto about that one).

And hey, you were only 2 points away from making the cut. You might actually make it next time.
adam2046
If I had known this round's entries would be posted up, I probably would have put some more effort into, at least, actually singing the right lyrics...

Come now, this event is all about parading everyone's wonderful voices about.

There's some good vocalists here though. I can't wait to hear what comes out of this next round.

This, this, and this. Unless you thought that the theme meant that you had to find a song from 1010 or earlier, but that would just be ridiculous.

Just sing something from The Beatles or Queen if you really can't find anything.

Lol you guys, what I meant was "most of the music I listen to is publisehd 20xx, and I don't know that many songs from 19xx" ... I guess my post was kind of vague but I have no idea how you interpreted it XD
Anyway I found some good songs but my voice range is so small lol D;
Sleep Powder
EDIT: oh nvm...I got it

Before 2000 right?

I'm pretty satisfied with my score...even though I almost got eliminated.
I was really inconsistent with my singing. My consistency was the biggest issue that there was.
I thought I had a decent voice and performed decently. Next time I'll probably do better since now
I have more time to practice and perform smoother than my last.
