It's back!!!
The Challenge:
The first round challenge is as follows: You just moved in with a roommate. All was well until you realized all this dude does is talk 24/7 is about how amazingly intelligent and well-qualified Sarah Palin is to run the U.S.. At first, it wasn't so bad, but now it's been going on for 3 months straight, every waking hour.
You can't afford to move out, but maybe if you find a really annoying song and loop it under his bed at night, so he thinks it's coming from the tough-looking immigrant neighbors, he might be driven to move out.
What song do you choose?
Note: Your selection must be an actual song with a YouTube link or other URL. It cannot be a noise track.
THE DEADLINE: This Sunday November 7th, 7 pm ET
Send
me
your selections with YouTube URL via PM. I'll post them for voting so everyone can listen to your selection. Be specific in your PM's. I need the exact song title, the artist, and YouTube URL. It doesn't matter how you decide on the song just as long as you PM me by the deadline.
Sample entry:
"El Gato Volador" by El Chombo

You can review the rules here:
Code:
Rules:
-No duplicate songs, obviously you can't pit the same song against each other. Songs choices will be locked in based on who submits them first. If you submit second and your selection is the same as a previous entry you will be forced to choose a different song.
-No changing your picks after submissions. Once you submit, that's it.
-Song submissions will be taken over PM. If you fail to submit by the deadline you automatically forfeit and are out of the tournament.
- Please include a link to a YouTube version of the song or some other legal source where voters can listen to your choice. I don't have the time to chase these down for you.
-I will allow everyone, including all competitors, to vote. Yes you can vote for yourself but I really encourage you to vote for the song you think is best, even if you think the guy you are going up against thought of a better song than you. Vote based on how well the entry fits the challenge.
-We will be using the Junkie poll system to vote for songs. So there will be up to 10 competitors (5 matchups) per thread (will use more than one thread if necessary for the first round or two until the field is narrowed) so everyone will have a maximum of 5 votes... one for each match up in the thread. Please DO NOT vote for both people going head to head. Vote one person per match up. Obviously there will be no way of telling so we will be using the honor system. Don't be a douche!
-The video accompanying the music on YouTube is completely irrelevant and should not be considered when voting. The music is all that matters.....it's ALL ABOUT THE MUSIC!
-No artist or song is off limits.
Please post any questions not addressed in this thread and I'll try to get to everything in a timely manner.
You will be asked to choose a new song if yours has already been selected by another competitor - so it benefits you to submit your picks early.
Post questions if you have them!!! Feel free to use this thread for callouts!
