Iron Heart Forum Music League

[Matt]

Here in the states we had a kids channel called Sprout. The channel has a bevy of hosts who would intro the shows and some had their own shows. I loved each and every one of them. Especially Nina from the nighttime show.

@Matt gee, too bad my kids missed sprout.
Mr Rogers and the g.d. purple dinosaur were my tormentors

@GraemeE said in Iron Heart Forum Music League:

Did we lose our momentum again?
Do I need to post more dreadful childrens television characters ?

Probably easier to just @ the people in question. I thought I had submitted already, AJ gave me a nudge this am. All done

@mclaincausey I had to quit yinz are too quick and it takes me forever

Also, @mclaincausey @steelworker I think this was Ed (Gommel) asking to be removed, but I may have misread. @steelworker can you confirm?

[chrisjohnnick]

after this league ends, I'd be down for another. But can we set it to be maybe 2-3 days max for each submission? I've started and finished 6 other leagues since we've started this one.

[mclaincausey]

I absolutely am down for another and absolutely agree the pace needs to be higher next time

[T4920]

I with agree 2 days as a maximum submission window, but for the listening/voting I think 3/4 is more appropriate (if possible) as finding the time listen to 2h+ playlist is sometime tricky.

[ARNC]

@T4920 I’m with you on this. You can plan submissions in advance but not the listening/voting.

[mclaincausey]

Agreed--unless we decide to move to one song submissions?

[goosehd]

...but if you're doing 2 day submission plus 3 or 4 days listening, you're looking at 5 to 6 days and you're no further ahead than you are now. @chrisjohnnick How have the other leagues handled theirs?

[Tago Mago]

I think it would improve if we go with 2 days for submission and 3 days for voting. Add the "Speedy - Playlists and voting results can arrive early, round deadlines adjust accordingly" feature and the league should move faster. Just my two cents

[T4920]

@goosehd if I'm not mistaken our current submission window alone is 7 days? Voting is probably the same?

I think 5/6 days is an acceptable time frame per round as opposed to the 14ish we have currently.

[goosehd]

As I also deleted my spotify account due to 2 notices of the site being compromised, my opinion doesn't much matter. The driving reason for me to exit though, was the pace was painfully slow.

It's a great idea and I hope you guys figure out something that works for all of you.

[steelworker]

@Alex yes I'm out

[SKT]

Thanks to whomever picked “Fetch the Bolt Cutters” One of my favorite songs off of one of my favorite lockdown albums

[endo]

[SKT]

What he said ^

[GraemeE]

For the record I was just being a smart ass about the round dragging on .
Definitely didn't want to call anyone out

Also may or may not have been trying to provoke inappropriate comments about fictional cartoons characters....
