in #openmic6 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 the Steemit site was down so people were not able to enter.

We only had 59 valid entries this week!

Steemit Open Mic Week 103

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) and your username 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.

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. They are posted in the order that they were entered.

Steemit Open Mic Week 103 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.

The cutoff date to enter however is 12.00 PM UTC Time (Friday, 21st September 2018). Find your UTC time here. Entries posted late will not be upvoted. If this post is already up then you missed the deadline and can enter next week.

Good to have you back @soundlegion. Please be sure to check the judges thread on Discord as some of the entries did not show and the links we posted there.

Hola como estas mi estimado. @luzcypher una pregunta y es porque mi participación no entro en esta semana? Si creo haber cumplido con todos los requisitos?

I have entered (I think) three or four times, but for me by far this is the best music community on the blockchain. I think it is great to see talent from all over the world. Some with the best equipment rocking and some with just an old guitar or even only a voice. For me pure proof music does erase bouderies and doesn't have limitations in how to feel, experience and make music. For me that is just what music is all about. I have written it already many times here on steemit in my posts but I will repeat it again ;)

Music is magic, music is emotion

And that's what music means to me. And to see so many devoted people posting their music, which is special to them in any way, is just great to see..

Thank you @luzcypher for building and have build this community ...

I feel the same way. Music is magic and has the power to transcend cultures and language. Long live Open Mic.

Hello, im new here, and i didn't see my entry.
I read the rules and thought i did as required, i must have missed something which i could not pinpont. Please, Can my reply to the openmic week 103 post be reviewed and my error communicated. I know i am asking much, i appreciate your kindness.

I don't see your post. Can you please post a link to it here?

Sometimes entries do not show on Steemit and when that happens I miss the post. Sorry that happened to you. This video shows what I mean:

When it happens, which is rare, I miss those entries. Rest assured, we did upvote your post and the judges have been notified of your entry. Thanks for understanding and letting us know and thanks for entering..

Ok ! No problem :) Thanks!

Hello, @luzcypher. How you doing? I can't find @maxipiano!

There has been some issue with Steemit this week. It sometimes drops entries. When that happens I can't see them or upvote them. This video will show you what I mean. He is upvoted now and the judges know he entered.


Ok, ok. Yes, I know you upvoted. Just saying, because sometimes users visit our entries after seeing them here. But it's ok, @luzcypher. I understand. Thank you, mister host Jeje...

This week has been a train wreck on the steem blockchain. Hopefully, all will be back to normal next week.

Best of luck for all

Hi, I'm new here, I guess I did something wrong, cuz i don't see my post listed here. It was my very first openmic entry, so I'd like to know what I missed, so that I can keep trying. Good luck to everyone.

Hi and welcome to Open Mic. Please take a moment to read the rules to enter.

https://steemit.com/openmic/@luzcypher/steemit-open-mic-week-103-record-your-performance-and-win-steem-sponsored-by-pfunk-and-luzcypher

There you will see this rule:

  • Live musical performances only specifically made for this contest. A musical instrument must be played in your performance.

But im playing the keyboard live. The cellphone is on the keyboard stand...and it took me like 10 takes, because, as I say on the post, Im not very good at it. But I did it... if you.check it out, Im looking at the keyboard almost all the time, and I even missed some notes.

Oh, my bad. I was thinking of another user. Your post was upvoted but for some reason was not added to the weekly post. We have been experiencing some technical difficulties with the blockchain and the server that helps make the weekly post.

The judges have been made aware of your entry. Sorry about that.

Thanks a lot! . It means a lot to me, since it was my first one. Thanks for your support and response. You do quite an outstanding job here. I can't wait to be back on next week.
