or maybe get a new host to take care of this competition? Because it's been only 2 rounds yet... ;u;
and I really don't want to start YET ANOTHER osu!idol when the last 2 i've entered turned out like this... . . . .
Having someone else take over an already-ongoing competition would be logistically ridiculously difficult to do, but given that only the preliminary is done so far, it might work.
Personally, I was thinking of making a "karaoke grand prix", with 4 judges, which would work as follows:
Each judge ranks the contestants in points from x (the number of contestants) to 1, from best to worst. Each contestant's score per round would be the average of the 4 judges' ranking. Rather than eliminating people, I'd like to do a mario kart style, where points simply carry over each round. That way more people can still participate for fun, and there isn't the stress factor of "I might be knocked out this week!" Each round would be one week long, themed, with no deadline extentions, and if you miss a round you simply get a 0 that carries over into the next. Judges would have 3 days to submit their scoring, and if they aren't on time, they're disregarded for that round. Meanwhile contestants can still carry on with the next theme since there is no elimination. I was thinking 8 weeks would be a decent length, and I'll personally sponsor a 6 month supporter status for the winner if it takes off.
Given that it's been nearly two weeks since submissions were due for osu idol, and we haven't heard back yet, I'm ready to go ahead with this new format if people are interested. Let me know through either PMs or posts, and I'll check daily to decide whether we have enough interest. If it does take off, I will be personally participating, since this is for fun after all, but leaving the judging of my recordings to the other 3 judges.
