Arrangement Contest No. 8 - Brainstorming *poll*

[Olimar12345]

for my first contest I did a piano solo and it didn't go well

What are you talking about? I remember that contest and yours was great! Even more so since it was your first attempt at something like this! You are too hard on yourself. :/

If you pull the bespinben filter, you'll say that all your sheets are bad

I'll be totally participating next time. Can't wait!

Give yourself some credit, Noc. You're an awesome guy!

I have an idea for the next project. Mixing a Christmas song with a Video Game song. It's not really that time of year, but it's an idea I've been hanging on to for a while

[mikey]

ew, no
following up on the collaboration idea, what if two people collaborated to make a duet?  I also feel like it would increase the submissions we have at the end since people will be more motivated to work on it with another person

[Zeila]

I like the duet idea, but it kind of limits people on which songs they choose (unless they aren't doing solely piano, or write out a second part altogether). Also, like noc said, I feel like I'd be more motivated to complete it. Maybe people who are busy/unmotivated/w/e could group together so that it's more likely that both people in a group don't finish as opposed to two people bringing down two others

I don't particularly like the Christmas idea though, but I'm not totally opposed to it.

Uhh, maybe do the Christmas one in December.

I like the idea of doing a duet, but I just don't know how it'd work

each person would choose an instrument and either work on the duet together, constantly sharing the document, or decide who gets which voices and makes the primo and secondo parts independently then puts them together when completed

Christmas songs: dumb idea
Duets: cool idea

I would be down for duet collabs, that sounds like so much fun!

[cashwarrior1]

You should totally do a duet, just du et!

I know this question was asked before, but I don't remember seeing an answer:
So, how would the teams be decided? Casting lots? Draw straws? Sacrifice?

If a person wanted to participate in the contest, I think it would be their job to find someone to arrange with. The contest isn't going to be for a little bit, so that should give people plenty of time to chat with members and find a partner. If all else fails, when the contest gets here, I could just randomly select pairs from the list of participants. If there is someone left over, we could have a group of three, i suppose.

Exactly what I thought.
