Plenty of space left lol...
Tracks do need to be downloadable,
I mentioned not rateable simply because i would hate to see the rates get wasted... more than likely after the contest is over the page would come down eventually, so you would probably want to post the tracks on your on page as well at that point... nominateable? well I guess they could be, why not..
BTW - RIcky has also donated a VIP membership to the contest so now there are 2 chances to win the free VIP... see the first post in this thread for a prize breakdown!
Good Luck All!

Mark you and I know, only ones that shall get a fair hearing or whatever is going to be already VIP members!! Just as is with the charts only people that seem to get a chart position are VIPS!! and not fairly rated or nominated for musical content but for site support through VIP!! Now I say this at my own risk of being removed from the site!! Something I shall just cope with!!

I agree with you MD, but I am speaking for the charts also, when week after week it's VIPS that seem to always be in the charts. At best you may get 3 maybe 4 non VIP tracks in the charts, this to keep it fair? I think the best way is to give everyone including non VIPS the choice to Nominate a track, I believe doing so will show a huge shake up in music. I have heard a lot of music by non VIPS that should have made the charts even at a 20 spot but they never seem to get a look in edge ways. A vast majority of non VIPS on this site are talented but it seems all VIPS make it to the charts purely based on their support of the site!! That is hardly fair, it's not judged on musical talent but site member priority!!!

Now Should I be removed from this site fair call!! But I cannot site idly by and watch the ones who pay reach the charts week in and out over a lot of great artists that are non VIPS!! I take this risk for the NON VIPS!! So If I am being dumb I apologise But I am a fair and just person and cannot watch this and say nothing about it at all!!
I believe non VIPS should have the chance to nominate also!!

the chart is just for fun dude.... just enjoy it...if you chart hats off to you...if you dont better look next time.... ive noticed none vips in the charts quite alot...we even had none vip's @ number 1..... the chart is normaly made up of music that as passed through the new mp3section of the site m8... like i said the chart is just for fun m8.... gets you some extra hits on your page...very rare will you get any comments on the track once it has charted....so its swings and roundabouts really

I understand your fair comments MD!! Personally I don't mind getting in the charts!! All I ask is fair feedback on my tracks, as a sort of learning thing!! But I mean, you must understand for non vips looking to make it big on the site but either cannot afford VIP membership or cannot gain it through whatever problem, it's not fair that X amount of NON VIP tracks are over looked for the paying members!! I mean are paying members better producers than non paying? It seems to be portrayed in such a manner!! Now Should I get removed from this site for my stance that is up to Stew!! But I mean, I believe in fairness!! and I don't think it is fair for only VIPS to nominate!! And I agree the charts are for fun but for a lot it means a lot to be in them, and it's not nice when it's all VIPS everyweek in both the official and user charts!!
I enjoy the feedback on this site of course, and a no chart spot for me is fine but I just think it is not very fair for only VIPS to be able to nominate!!

i hear what your saying m8...maybe vip's are better @ promoting themselfs? not better producers....just maybe getting out of it what they put in? this weeks chart has 8 none vips...that means 12 vip's...i think that pretty fair m8...i think if you look over the last few weeks charts its been very close... one of the weeks it was 10 each.... this has been going on since i joined the site... yes there are weeks where there are full vip charts... that normaly means vip members have uploaded enough tracks to cover the 20 tracks.... got to remember there are only 20 places...100's of tracks uploaded a week...someone gonna miss out anyways...just carry on doing what your doing...comment on peoples music... alot will return the favour... not all but you ust got to keep doing it... you get to a point where you dont care if people return comments just carry on about your own buisness...if you making sh*t hot music chances are your gonna get in the chart if you have promoted it in the new mp3 section
btw if your gonna complain about people not returning comments...ive left you comments on one your tracks before...i have 3 pages on here and i never got a returned comment from you...so stop whinging about people not returning comments when you dont always do it yourself...ive got close to 60 songs on here not one comment from yourself...

Better at promoting themselves? Over non VIPS? What are we? Lepers? Maybe better because VIPS get all the extras on the site!! Whcih I do agree with such as MAIN SITE ARTIST PROMOTION!! but I disagree solely with the nominations!! And that only VIPS can nominate!! That is my only problem, I agree with VIPS getting to promote throughout the entire site!! You guys pay to support this great site!! As I said my only problem is that I think all member should be able to nominate!! that way we will see a true chart!!

Nominating your own music is easy to avoid!! I have been on sites that avoid such things!! I mean if VIPS get 3 nominations a week? I think non vips should at least get the chance to have 1 nomination!!

That has actually been discussed i believe, the 1 nom for non-vip's but a small minority would abuse it and open several accounts just to use the noms... that's actually one of the reasons indirectly for this contest and it's prizes.... to add more VIP's to the site!
There are alot of non-vip's that i've personally listened to that defo deserve to be in the charts, and do get there.... as RIcky says there is generally more activity from VIP's than non-VIP's on the forums which is where exposure comes from.
On another note, I'm glad to see you put the song back in the contest Mek! It's shaping up to be a good competitive contest and will be difficult to judge for sure!
I can assure everyone this, the judging of this contest will be completely unbiased and based on 4 things... 1) creativity 2) arrangement 3) performance 4) lyrical content if applicable... production quality is taken into consideration but not factored in the judging, that way people who don't have high-end gear have a chance as well!
I wanted this to be about song writing... how well is it arranged... how creative is it... how well is it performed and for vocalists, how well is it written and sung.... that simple!
NOW LETS GET THOSE ENTRIES IN FOLKS! And Good Luck To All!

Shalom all
Just a thought, I logged in as usual and came looking for this thread to find the link to the competition page, it was a long roundabout way to find it, my thoughts are that other non-VIPS are not going to easily find this if it is not advertised on the Home Page, is there any way you can do that?

Good point Deborah... I try to keep the thread bumped toward the top, but I guess some folks never bother with the forums at all so they would never know... I could ask Stew to throw the banner in the rotation, but i hate to bother him with it... I'll see.....

This is a very generous offer from you guys and so it makes sense that it would fill up very soon, if not then people must not be looking in the forum.
I'm sure Stu would not mind putting this up on the homepage for you.
Reckon we can just let people know about the compo, who we think may be interested, eg PM

Thank you so much Mark for giving a PC and mic based home studio artist like myself a chance to enter a competition like this. For me production is important, but I don't have enough experience yet to make it sound professional. At least through this other non-VIPs an myself are getting some exposure outside of our little band pages.

Hi,
I'd like to say thank you for hosting this and good luck to all...
Also, it was weird, i logged in and the MHContest's VIP account said it was expired...  a bit ironic....
and it sure was tempting to make it master track, but i though that'd be either too cheeky or cheesy...
ps: here's my entry:

Is that the finished track now? The little write up on it on the page still says unfinished, I know you posted a temporary track to hold the spot.... is this one the final version?

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CONTEST PAGE?????????
I logged in to check it out and instead of MHContest, it is now Macroom, an Irish Band from London? And instead of Marks picture designed for the contest there is some picture of, well, I am not sure, some Irish guys I guess.
Did I miss something????
