Battle of the Bands - Questions & Answers
If you have any questions about our "Battle of the Bands" song contest, you can ask them here.
FAQ
Q. Does all uploaded songs automatically compete in the contest?
A. Not immediately. First we have to edit out the 10 second sample that will enter. This can take some days, depending on how busy we are. And we limit the admittance to only your first 5 tracks.
Q. What if I don't like the 10 seconds you have selected of my song?
A. Then you can ask us to select a different bit. You can also edit the song yourself and send the 10 second sample to us.
Q. I always get the same songs when voting in the battles. Is that fair?
A. The way the system has selected the songs you hear, have changed and improved over time. The idea is that all songs should be equal and have the same number of chances. New songs will be picked more often than songs, that have already been battling for a long time. The system tries to find a song that has a low number of battles, and sets it up against a song it hasn't competed against before. When a song has been battling it will have to wait 10 rounds before it can get another chance. In the end the result should be as close to fair when every song has been in battle agains every other song exactly one time.
