Description:
This is a simple game that will test you music knowledge. All you have to do is evade the music that the leader of each round knows. For full rules see below.

Hello


This is a game that will challenge your musical knowledge. The idea behind the group came from [Game] The Music Elite which was experiencing problems due to the leader being banned. This group is the simplest of the 2 remaining variations, as there is no league structure and it doesn't matter what time you join you will always be able to become champion as long as you avoid being kicked. You can join as many times as you wish and become champion as many times as you can achieve. If you have any question you can leave me a shout, PM or leave a question FAQ.
If you enjoy your time in the group don't forget to tell you friends and advertise by adding one of the many banners to your signature.

For an ultimate challenge, I suggest you join

take on two games with two different leaders, and various members, that have completely different tastes!


To win the Game you need to avoid being kicked, until you are the longest serving member.

You will be kicked for:
1. I recognise the band or artist of your last listened or currently listening track. To recognise an artist I have had to have heard at least 1 song by them.
2. Your last listened or currently listening track is not a song (no talk-shows, pod-casts, etc.).
3. You have not played new music within 72 hours (3 days). I will check the recently added portion of your library. If the last track was added over 72 hours ago you will be kicked.

How a round works:
1. I open all pages of the member list at the same time.
2. I kick people based on the above rules and send them a shout.
3. I kick people who have not listened to new music in three days.
4. I send a message to all users linking to a forum post where the round can be discussed.
5. Please be aware that king_prawn95 is the leader, and therefore immune from being kicked.


How Champions Work:
1. If you survive to become the longest surviving member and defend for one round you are the champion. (The members list is sorted chronologically in relation to joining time)
2. Your prize is that you get 24 hours to advance the game forward one round (following the steps above), you'll be given temporary permission to kick members from the group. You also get to select an artist to connect to the group.
3. After you advance the round or 24 hours (whichever comes first) you will be kicked and must start again from the bottom.
4. Multi Champions will have 2 rounds to be champion.
5. Any failed rounds will be completed by king_prawn95 within 24hrs from the rounds deadline.
6. Please be aware that king_prawn95 is the leader, and therefore immune from being kicked.

Please refer questions to the FAQ, please also check for understanding the rules.

    dude i'd like to see a game where you get kicked out for having a band no one has heard. Basically the opposite of this game. that'd be pretty sick. [2]

    Update2: the links in my Last.fm-journal are also nerfed (it automatically adds a semi-colon at the end of most lines). Try this Google-doc instead: https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1ERGed5mo58FrNfl12SPJ1sRZUk9uR6QhD-raVlUDS9A
