Hey fans,

As you might know, there's currently a "Best VGM Song contest" being hold. So what do you think, should there be an Animespot equivalent once the VGM song contest is finished? Of course, there wouldn't be as many tracks as in the VGM contest, maybe 64 or 128 at the most. The main problem I see is that there are not too many good Anime tracks, but that shouldn't stop us. Or are you tired of song contests?

Just wanted to collect some opinions

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Does someone of you remember if there has been a contest like this one before the crash? I think there has been some Best OP/ED song contest last year, but I am not sure. If someone could share any info about that, that would be helpful.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Hmm I just thought it wouldn't be too great to have such a large contest again; people could lose interest. So maybe we should limit it to OP/ED tracks only?!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Yeah, I guess that would be a good idea.

So what would you guys like to see first? OP/ED or BGM? I prefer OP/ED, but there's still time for some discussion.

Well even if we allowed both OP/ED and BGM music, I am pretty sure 80-90% of the nominated tracks would be OP/ED tracks anyway. Or at least that's what I think it will result in. When I'm looking in my ANIME folder which contains about 150 MP3s, I can only see a couple of BGM tracks.

I am still prefering SS's idea of splitting the contest, but I heard some pretty valuable arguments against that idea as well.

However, I don't think that another contest with 256 entries would be a good idea. That would just be too enormeous; I don't have anything against large contests, but I don't want people to lose interest in it, which will probably happen if we take the contest over two months.

Nah not really, I mean, who would have thought that the Best Videogame Song Contest wouldn't be dominated by Uematsu, Hamauzu and Shimomura tracks? And, I mean, even if it's going to be the way you describe it, where's the big deal, see, if Yoko Kanno is considered the best anime music composed, then it's nothing but okay that her tracks are going to dominate the contest. Well, at least I do not really have a problem with that.

Well I think we should start nominations when the best videogame song contest is about to finish not to confuse people with too many contests

We still have to figure out who's gonna organize this contest, though =/

Ah well now that's not true. Everyone who's going to participate in this contest should know at least a few tracks beside the "basics". Maybe I am being too optimistic right here, but we'll see.

If I'm wrong, well, then I'm sorry you guys need to tell me what we can do about that. I mean, setting a limit of tracks by the same composer seems pretty much retarded to me.

FELIPE NO
