I have a question Gav if an entrant can submit more than one submission.

(Well, I promise not to submit more than 100  -:))

[Gav Brown]

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but just one please!

[Milan Arandjelovic]

Can i also send some my work? I signed here yesterday, and i am allowed here about 2hrs ago, and this is my first login now, so i see this for the first time. I already have some pieces to send...

[Gav Brown]

Milan, you can participate

[Milan Arandjelovic]

Thanks! Where to send mp3 and score? Should i have a name on PDF or not?

[Gav Brown]

Milan, Friend me on this site and I will send you an e-mail address you can send the files to. The PDF should *not* have your name - Gavin

[Janet Spangenberg]

Wow, so many entries... this is great!

I hope we have as many people scoring them. Gav, have you given any thought to letting the contestants score? I thought of an easy way to make it fair, while still using the polling system: If each entrant scored their piece at the top, it would keep things even.

[Greg Brus]

A fair point, actually. I imagine that without letting the contestant score the entries, there won't be many people left that could judge ;o
