Here's how it works...


Round One - Nominations (December 12th- December 18th)

Nominations will take place for one week. There are 24 Music Categories and they are listed below. Each member may choose two songs to nominate per category, sent via dnote to the "dmusic counter" who next to each category. All nominations must be for songs except category 22 and 23 which are for artists only. Members may nominate their own songs but only one per category. Winning songs from last year are not eligible for this year's contest, but winners of Best Male and Female are of course eligible for that award this year as well. Please include both category nominations within a single dnote. Duplicate nominations will be counted as a single nomination. Members are not required to nominate for every category, but are encouraged to do so.

Once all the Nominations are in, the "dmusic counters" will announce the top nominated songs for each Music Category. The larger categories may have more nominees than the smaller ones, but in the end (after the voting) there will be a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winner for each category.


Round Two - Voting (December 19th - December 26th)

When all nominated songs are posted, you may listen to those songs and artists and then place your vote. Members will be allowed to vote twice per category and again must send a single dnote containing both category votes to the "dmusic counter" responsible for that specific category. Members may vote for their own song, but again only once per category. This second round of voting will last for one week. Members must have at least 200 points and must have joined DMusic before December 1st to be eligible to vote. (We will be checking!)


Awards End

Once the votes have been counted, we will announce the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places for each category as well as the song that received the most votes overall as "Best Song".

Remember, only two song nominations per category for Round One, and two votes per category in Round Two.

Go forth, listen, nominate and vote for your favorite songs and artists... and most of all, have fun!

Good luck to everyone!

thanks to Cryxan, MinisterofScissors, victorskull, independentmusician, and perkie1973 who volunteered with vote counting.

also, i added the Pop category (thanks FraDonaghy for the suggestion!). Nominations start tomorrow

Awesome!

ooh, i'm really excited! can't wait to vote for all of my incredibly talented dmusic friends!

I'll help out if you wish just let me know

Nominated. Good luck everyone!

Some people are coming to me with confused notes. If you want to vote for a song that is in a sub genre like "easy listening" or "psychadelic pop" they are umbrellaed under their main genre title... in the case of those two examples... "pop"
Hope this helps remove that confusion

Thanks fra ^^

Awards will be great - Good luck all

if I loose I am going to start a holy war against dmusic

Let the games begin!

Flying Apparatus will win!

Question:

Best Male and Femal Vocal-----

I haven't been here for the whole year...is there a list of last year's winners? So I don't nominate them again??
