Another Sub-Contest?

[ferrygraf]

Hello everyone!

Based on suggestions we received in the latest general survey, we consider the idea of having another WWWSC sub-contest.

• It would be about having special themes every edition, however, it wouldn't take place on a permanent basis like the main contest or Retro WWWSC, but just every now and then and overall perhaps a few times a year, depending on our schedule. Possible themes would be a Junior Edition or a Christmas Edition, maybe also rejected ideas from former special edition polls.
• The general rules would be the same as in the other contests, each player represents his/her country and sends songs from there, fitting to the theme. Songs which already participated in WWWSC or Retro WWWSC cannot be sent again. The current WWWSC players have the first right of participating, if they don't want to, others can take their place there. Obviously a participation isn't obligatory.
  
• This contest wouldn't affect the main WWWSC, both would be done separately with its own editions and possibly at the same time as the main contest. it shouldn't affect the main contest though, so the editions in the sub-contest can be expected to be slower, also depending on the number of participants.
• Further information about the contest will be decided once and if the sub-contest takes place.

Please answer in the poll above about whether you'd be interested in participating.
Of course we'd also like to hear your thoughts, ideas, concerns, questions about it, so feel free to post them below. 

This is just a provisional poll to see the general interest. An official decision about whether the sub-contest will start will be made by the managers and of course the poll will be taken into consideration while making the decision.

Please answer it only if you take part in (Retro) WWWSC 

Greetings and looking forward to hearing your opinions!

Well, as long as it doesn't slow down or affect the main contest in any way, I don't see any problem, it's a great idea

It shouldn't, we'll see how it turns out to be
But in any case, the main contest always has priority

Themes editions are a nice idea like how it works in the main contest but to make an apart contest for it to have every edition a theme is not gonna work for every country. For me it's a No. I don't think there is enough interest for it.

[Argüello]

For me it's a yes but Idk I would be able to participate in some editions, due to small music Industry of

[fabbi]

I'm leaning towards a no because it may be stealing the "magic" of the main contest's special editions.

I may still take part in editions with a theme that sounds appearing to me.

[malteser]

I think that there is already a special edition after every 10 editions and maybe it can be seen as extra as the main contest has the main enthusiasm. So if I had to vote i'd say no but will be willing to participate in the subcontest if it commences as sharing music is always a good thing!

The poll is closed!

Thanks a lot to everyone who voted! 40 people voted with 29 of them claiming their interest in a new sub-contest. Thus, with a really high percentage of 72.50%, I guess it is quite obvious that this sub-contest will open.

More precisely, we will make sure to create a new thread for the very first edition of this sub-contest during the upcoming week and all of you who are currently participating in the main contest will be tagged. In case anyone else is interested in joining or so, we will have to make sure the country player from WWWSC doesn't express interest as those will have priority.

Moreover, for those who took part in the poll without participating nor in the main contest neither in Retro WWWSC, thanks for your vote, although in case you are interested, as mentioned above, you will only be able to take part if the players from the main contest and Retro are not interested.

Stay tuned for further updates!

I guess that is Regional WWW Song Contest. It's alright?

Let's hope that players of Retro WWWSC will be tagged...
