The Knock Out || ROUND 5

by **HC55555** » Fri Mar 02, 2012 2:22 am

This is a new but simple game I bring to you. If you like it, it'll be continued month after month.

15 videos from the previous month (in this case, February 2012) will battle to remain in competition and win the final crown. But they only can achieve that with your votes!

The idea is simple. Every round, you have to rank the competitors. The better positions it has a song, the most points. The participant with least votes will be out. But there's two tricks: 1) you can't give ANY same position to a song in two consecutive rounds; 2) the most voted song and second least voted song will be immune next round.

If you didn't get the idea, you will in the course of the game :wink:

February 2012 Knock Out
Last month were released 53 music videos which I considered it can participate in the first Knock Out. Out first task is reduce them to a 15-participants final selection.
