68th Sibling Rivalry Bump
UK Cowboy Singer's Speed of the Sound of Loneliness went from 94 / 57 to 149 / 71 while General Noise's Welcome Home went from 178 / 79 to 287 / 101 (a better showing than recent days, folks)
Today we visit new t61 artist Jesta (SL: Jesta Noonan) with Scully Said at 69 / 45
Our sib song comes from clancy490 - grandatlantic's everything is real is at 60 / 36
NOTE ON GROUP NOTICES:
Artists - please, please, please do NOT use the 61 group for live show announcements :) Use group chat for that. Notices should be for thanking fans, alerting us about new songs you've posted and other on-topic information about your web based 61 accounts. If you could also try to keep it to like one notice per week that would be swell :)
HELP WANTED:
I'm looking to rename the Sibling Rivalry Bump with a name that sheds the antogonistic history. I think we've hopefully moved past that stage and the kids are now able to play the game without pulling on each other's hair. Any suggestions for a new name?
Also, there are now about 97 artists in rotation for our bump runs. At one bump a day that's a bump per artist once every 3 months or so. I had received a suggestion to do 3 SL artists per day in one morning bump bomb notice. Thoughts?
WHY THE BUMP BOMBS ARE NOW CALLED SIBLING RIVALRY BUMPS: http://www.lovelymachine.com/Dolmere/2008/04/1st_sibling_rivalry_bump.html
**THE CURRENT PATTERN - HOW WE CHOOSE THE ARTIST AND SONG (SUBJECT TO CHANGE AS THE SIBLING RIVALRY BUMP MATURES)**
We've looped through our artist list twice now adding new members as they arrive.
From each artist we choose the song that is closest to 100 points without going over and try to get it as many votes from as many unique voters as possible. For artists with songs all over 100 points we'll now choose the song with THE LEAST bumps and show it some love.
Our efforts are:
Helping artists level up
Keeping us engaged and active as a group
Systematic and fair
Our in-world group is now at 135 group members and growing. It's nice to have you along for the ride :)
Note: New artists will remain on the "todo" list until they join our in-world group. I am not putting them into rotation until they join. I realize that there is a limit to the number of groups that we can join and that is a big pain for all. However, I've had too many artists contact me to ask to get into rotation AFTER they've already been bumped by the group.
