Welcome to BxT Idol! This is the newest and most exciting event to have happened at BoxTorrents since the invention of sliced bread! Okai, so, perhaps that's not entirely true, but still, it's a great new BxT related event to participate in!

As we all know, freeleech has come and gone, so we're all feeling a lil blue, but we've thought of a new way to get bonus points to get that ratio up! Yes, all that's involved is taking part! Participation will result in bonus points! Yes, I realise it involves a bit of effort, but the gain is substantial!

Requirements are low, all you need is a method to record yourself sing, and upload it somewhere so the judges can rate it! The competition has already started, but it's not too late to enter. Final deadline for applicants is on the 31st of this month! (March)

So join in, have fun, get loot and remember, keep your ratio above one!

Please direct all queries about this event to Chiyachan.
(Full rules and information on this event are in the forums under the lounge.)

There's to be nothing MEAN said. Sure, the judges can rank a "0" on someone, but they won't be mean about it.

If people want a mean treating, they can always make an offer and disregard the upload guidelines.

None of the judges will be mean (I hope). Remember, we don't want to cut you down, but we need to be honest.

And it's not like we expect you to be professional singers =)
So if you sing really well, you'll be getting a lot of praise =O

interesting..
..any chance of a dancing one later on?

Cool I may have to participate in this.

I don't really know if I can sing well or not, but I might as well try. I will probably do Green Day - Basket Case or No Doubt - Dont Speak. Or maybe Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles(is that what it's called lol?)

As stated before, once this competition is concluded, I'll be thinking up new ways to amuse myself and others though various competitions and the like.

As long as it's you singing, anything goes really. Please refer to the rules and introduction post in the relevant forum.

Will the submissions be up in public or just for the "judges"? I just came across this just now and someone mentioned it's been going on for a while now so I'm just a little curious. Don't beat me up! Just love to see/hear the participants. Could probably be on a BxT youtube channel or something lol. Anyways!

Interesting idea =P
The public can see all the submissions (there are already a bunch right now, if you look through the BxT Idol subforum, you can see them all.

Hmm... this sounds rather interesting...
I wouldn't mind trying this...

Oh wait, it can be in any language, huh?

Maybe... I should record a medley...
