All right...a generous person offered to donate a very tidy sum to the next contest awards. I am certain of who offered this, but I can't find the PM with it due to my over-tidying of my inbox (not a euphemism), so now I wonder if I dreamt it? Rather than putting the person on the spot in the event I did dream it and making them feel like they should offer it, I'm posting here to ask this person to PM me again with the offer.
IT WAS ALL NOT A DREAM!! ANNOUNCE: @The Dreaded Marco has generously offered to fund $250 of the charity prize donations for this countdown!!
So with that, let's go ahead and announce the
***OFFICIAL*** CONTEST rules.
Since this is a tough one to predict, and since not a single human being commented on my earlier request for feedback, I'm going to make it official that the ***OFFICIAL*** contest will entail your guessing the top 10 artists overall in this countdown. Please submit your answers to me,
@krista4 , by 11:59 pm Pacific Time on Saturday, March 18.
TIE-BREAKER: You know it, you love it, you can't live without it - it's the
Ace Award! As a tie-breaker, please submit your guess at the "Ace Award," which participants in prior countdowns know means the song that receives the most points from an artist who has no other songs in the countdown. If no one correctly guesses the Ace Award (which no one will, based on past experience), then the person who chooses an Ace Award candidate (artist with only one song) with the highest number of points will win the tiebreaker. If no one chooses an "Ace," then the next will be someone who chooses an artist with only two songs, etc.
Winner of the contest receives $250 donated to the charity of their choice.
