dun dun dun
this is a walrus
therefore, you will submit songs
and then expect me to score you!
and then i'llprobably do that
scoring: any points above 7 are doubled(i.e. 7.6 becomes 8.2)
if i've never heard the song you submit you get 1 bonus point(this point can't be doubled by the above rule)
if you catfail, submit an example song, or submit anything by Sara Bareilles you will have your final score halved
top 25% will be full played, rest are at the mercy of my whim to their duration
try to submit everything at least 3 categories ahead, excepting cat10 which you can send anytime before cat 9 reveal(since it's finicky with the specific number)
all of the cat examples are lazy or nonexistent and i don't care
i actually don't have time to unembed so you just get song names
Cat 1: Duet
Submit a song where at some point in the song, exactly 1 male and 1 female are singing at the same time(nobody else, though others can come later/earlier)

Submit exactly 20 seconds from a full-length song.
no example you know what a song is

Cat 10: Mediocrity
a 6 is a 10(pre-doubling); each point away from 6 is 1.5 points below 10.
see the clips category for an example
pandering things:
don't submit anything which has lyrics which are too fast/quiet/loud for me to even attempt to understand(foreign language shit will go fine though); will score 0 points
good lyrics will score not-zero points
follow the koc mantra of 'anything in tune' to not receive a complete shitty score
alternatively, submit something not in tune but funny or w/e(still has to be bearable though) and still don't receive a completely shitty score
cats 1/2/4/5/8 i expect to receive higher scores than the others(cat10 notwithstanding it doesn't count); take this as you will
submit by around 8 pm est on the 15th please! if you can't finish at least get in the first four or so and get in the rest asap
