If you removed the poll, they're gone for good I expect (note that can happen when editing the first post if a poll is attached) |

Here are the results of the Theme Polls for Week 2 Attachment: Themes for week2.png The People who finished last in their groups will get to select either one or two themes from the list to apply to the other group. They can either pick 1 theme from the top 4 of list 1, 1 theme from the top 4 of list 2, or 1 from each (For example Tull Throttle Elements,or Unusual instruments in Cover versions) the person who finished with the lowest points total will have the first choice. |

Here are the results of Week 3's Theme and Decade Polls. Attachment: Themes for week3.png The People who finished last in their groups will be eliminated this week, however, they will get to select a theme and a decade from the list to apply to the other group. The person who finished with the lowest points total will have the first choice. They will also have the chance to play on to avoid the wooden spoon. I will choose the theme and decade for that competition. I will post the results of the Group Polls after I have sorted them. |

Is the theme ‘Not English’ or ‘Song Not In English’, or whichever you fancy it being? Coz, like, 90s songs from America is pretty easy. |

Question to the masses - do people prefer single themes or double themes? I’m finding the latter a bit restrictive. It’s potentially more interesting in finding and fitting a song in, but less likely to result in the picking of really good songs. My opinion only though, and people may well prefer the double themes. |
|
| Author: | DavPaz [ Mon Jul 27, 2020 8:33 ] |
| Post subject: | Re: Battle of the Songs: - Theme Suggestion Thread |
The double themes are cool but could potentially make it impossible to choose a song. |

| Post subject: | Re: Battle of the Songs: - Theme Suggestion Thread |
I prefer single ones, and I've tried to keep my suggestions as open to interpretation as possible to encourage diversity. I struggled this week because whilst I could think of plenty of things with weird instruments, shoehorning in 1980s was tricky. But I found the best entry nonetheless. |

Okay, What I'll do then for this round, the loser can pick the theme, and the second constraint will be any of the top 4 "types" in the other poll. From the next round going forward it will just be one theme and that's that. Is that okay with everyone? |
