Well, they're
finally here! Holy Oracle there were a lot of entries. I actually had to
work! At least some of you had the foresight to give me a good chuckle. Or maybe that was just accidental. Either way, good work, everyone that entered!
We've narrowed the finalists down, and have 6 finalists for each genre. Unfortunately, we had to cancel the R&B/Soul genre as there were so few entries, entrants from that category were moved into the 'Other' category to be judged. (I guess Subeta has no soul! Or rhythm. I'm sure we have plenty of Blues)
Now, to find our
Grand Champion, the bands are going to need some support. This is where you guys come in! Have a look through our
Finalist Showdown and pick your favourite band, the one you want to support right to the bitter end. That's the band you're going to be battling for! And how do you battle, I hear you ask in wonder? Well, you need to play
Street Team of course! Woah! Much game! Very battle!
For now, scores can't be sent - we want to give you a chance to pick out your favorite bands and get familiar with the game for a few hours first. But starting from around noon tomorrow you will be able to start sending scores - and each score sent will go towards your chosen bands total! Users can send
3 scores per day - or
4 if they have a Gold Account. VIP users' scores count for
25% extra towards their total! (So, a score of 20 will give you 25 points!)
Now, prizes. There are going to be a variety - but seeing as you guys continually impress us with your skills, we haven't yet decided
exactly how they're going to be distributed. There will likely be prize(s) for the winner of each genre, and then the grand champion will be rewarded - along with all the people that supported the grand champions band. There will also separately be prizes for users that submit the highest scores, so even if you are in a team that maybe aren't doing so well - you can still work hard and achieve something on your own! The Grand Champion band will get to work with us on designing some items, so all prizes will be awarded after Peka-Boo has come to an end. Score-sending will end on
Monday 28th, again around about noon so that we can tally up the scores and announce the winners in the evening!
Every one of you could be
instrumental in getting a band to victory. So pick who you want to
support, and
stand by them! Yeesh, that was a lot of information. I'm going back to my tent.
