November 23, 200817 yr only if we win the rounds of online voting for the top 16. Well, with Ben as a judge (AND a Coldplay fan) AND our rock solid playlist I say we're all set:D
November 23, 200817 yr Author SELECTION After the closing date, we’ll look at all the playlists from all the forums, to select those 16 that will make it through to the knock-out stage. Your playlist will be looked at by the Absolute Radio Rock-Off panel – made up of five members of the Absolute Radio team: Ben Jones, Head of Music, Station Producer, Music Editor and Community Manager. As a minimum, your playlist has to be made up of 12 songs, with 6 of those from the artist your forum is dedicated to. Like every good music show, order of the songs is important. Give consideration to this. We also need to see that your playlist is a true forum effort, so make sure plenty of your forum users contribute to a lively discussion in the forum thread you submit with your entry. Taking all these factors into consideration, the panel will then select 16 forum playlists to go into the knock out. VOTING Playlists from 16 forums will be selected to take part in the knock-out stage. The knock-out stage will take place over 4 rounds, and will start at 4.30pm (GMT) on Sunday 30 November 2008. Matches will be played between Sundays and Fridays. Winners in each match will be chosen by the public by way of an online vote at absoluteradio.co.uk/rockoff. Each match vote will be open for 23.5 hours, between 9.00pm (GMT) and 8.30pm (GMT) the following day, except matches that run from Sunday-Monday where they will be open for 28 hours, between 4.30pm (GMT) and 8.30pm (GMT) the following day. Only one vote per person per match is permitted. The winner of each match will be announced on-air at 9.00pm (GMT) Monday-Friday and at 4.30pm (GMT) on Sundays. http://www.absoluteradio.co.uk/music/rockoff/tsandcs.html
