Steemit Open Mic Week 80 - See Who Played Open Mic PART ONE

in #openmic • 7 years ago (edited)

Steemit Open Mic is an online, live music venue to give musicians a chance to share their music with the Steemit community and get their music heard. It is growing larger every week thanks to all of you.

This week's entries have been split into two posts because we have so many entries that we broke the post size limit on Steemit!

This post is part one and this is

Steemit Open Mic Week 80 - See Who Played - Part 2

To see all the entries you'll have to go there too. The post was so big the website would not post it!

We had 207 entries this week of which 179 are valid entries! Awesome guys!

You can read more about why all of the entries are not in the See Who Played weekly posts by reading Steemit Open Mic Is About Building A Community Of Musicians On Steemit Not About Winning --- by @luzcypher

There have been a flush of new accounts downloading people's valid Open Mic entries, uploading them to a new YouTube account, and posting it as their own performance on their multiple Steemit accounts. Those will not be included and I have muted those accounts.

To the scammers doing this, muting your account means I will no longer see your posts so you are wasting yours and every one elses time continuing down that path. You will be flagged, reported to @steemcleaners, and banned from entering Open Mic.

We put a new rule in place that is designed to stop scammers, not singers as some people seemed to have interpreted this post.

Steemit Open Mic Week 80 Part 1

Steemit Open Mic is growing so fast that a lot of people are entering without really reading the rules so I want to do a little house cleaning for those entering the contest.

The bigger this grows the easier it is to miss someone's entry post so following these rules makes us see you have entered so we can upvote you.

For more on the rules read, What Are The Rules To Enter Steemit Open Mic And Why Do We Have Rules Anyways?

Steemit Open Mic is a live music contest and we need to know that you are really playing or singing us a song for this contest in particular. That's why to qualify for prizes you must say "Steemit Open Mic Week" (next week number) at the beginning of your video just before you play or sing the song. If you don't or if you edit in later onto a prerecorded performance you will not qualify for prizes.

If your song is an original song then you MUST put the word "original" in your title. Original songs get a small bonus right now and it is easier to find all the original songs with the word added in the title.

The next thing that is very important it to begin your title with "Steemit Open Mic Week (the current week number)" and place that as the first words of your title or I may not be able to find your post at all.

Here is a perfect example of a correctly titled post to enter Steemit Open Mic for an original song.

This would be a perfectly titled post for a cover song entering the contest.

Theses posts are really easy to find in the feed and upvote them. They can easily be spotted so none of them get missed.

Also, @andybets from steemreports.com is working on a chart that is targeting those keywords to sort all entries by originals and covers.

It is SO cool and you can check it out with this sneak peak of the Steemit Open Mic Chart

NOTE: The order this chart lists the performances has no bearing on choosing the finalists. Just because a video is at the top doesn't mean they will win the contest.

Steemit Open Mic Week 79 performances are in and there's still time to vote for your favorites.

Great songs and performances this week. Have a listen to them below and be sure to show your support and upvote your favorites.

It's all in good fun and community spirit and I want to thank everyone for their enthusiastic support.

    Hello @luzcypher. I see that I didn't qualify because I didn't post the Youtube video, I thought that the Dtube video was better because it was from the Steemit platform, I thought wrong. Correct my article and post the Youtube video. Too bad, I didn't qualify. Well, see you later. A musical hug.

      Yeah we sometimes have issues listening to and viewing the @dtube entries. @Luzcypher wrote about that in the Open Mic Rules that we don't allow Dtube entries. Youtube or Vimeo is what we accept for now until improvements are made where we can later on accept other forms. Looking forward to your next entry next week. If I get time, I'll check out your entry for this week as well.

        I love DTube but sometimes we cannot hear the song when it is on DTube.
        Also, the tool we use to make the weekly post will not add your video if it is on DTube. That's why we ask you in the rules to add a YouTube embedded video too, even if you use DTube. Thanks

                  We are looking for real performances and trying to stay away from performances that are just jamming with the radio. I sometimes make exceptions but when we get too many people jamming with the radio it does not really make for a good user experience in the weekly post.
