Please limit your reforms to rules-related only, i.e. don't complain about lack of entries, the fact that 'x' or 'y' genre won, etc.

Suggestions from the First thread, which may or may not be implemented

Have the challenge round be remaking files that DIDN'T make it only. (Definately considerable.)
Allow single-chart keyboard entries. (Not too likely, partially becuase I want to encourage a minimim amount of work being put into the entry.)
Separating keyboard entirely to it's own competitions. (Again, I'm not too sure, if only because I can't really be running two separate competition series regularly)
Fewer points for following the rules - instead penalizing for not doing so. (Almost definately this will be implemented.)
Merging the DDR and ITG brackets into one "Open Pad" bracket, similar to how it was in the earlier OSCs, to encourage original methodologies and not being locked into the Box of DDR-like or ITG-like thinking. (I am strongly considering this one - counter-cases made about it muchly consist of hating on DDR or ITG, which to me is not related to the important question of "how fun and well-done is the entry, ignorant of category?".)
Tighter enforcement of criticisms being constructive. (Pretty much guaranteed.)
Remove official judges entirely. (No. Not just no, hell no.)
Don't do Solo-centric challenge again. Ever. (This one saddens the Incy. Solo needs more love. The next challenge, at least, won't be Solo. Or Doubles.)
Limit judged charts (and required charts) to 1. (No, for the same reason as not doing the same for Keyboard files.)
Have at least five judges, and drop the lowest and highest. (I was actually thinking average the lowest and highest, but this works too - and yes I do plan to try and ensure 5 or more judges per bracket, every bracket this time.)
Restrict Rolls. (At least, Jammitch seemed to be implying this one.) (Also, probably not, though I will admit some uses of them are kind of stupid.)
Restore the 'bonus' scheme from OSC3, at least in part. (Being considered, there's merits and problems with this one.)

Keep in mind that the last thread got locked due to ranting about "what sucked about people's song selections", "the judges suck" (a comment that I will personally murder any repeats of), and/or "(insert DDR, ITG, or Keyboard here) sucks". Keep the discussion centered on the rules this time.

I'll also accept, as part of posts here, name ideas for the competion after BoNG. >_>
