My main question is; is there any kind of a prize or reward if you win?
Also, what is ideal song length? because i have a couple files almost done, but i thinm most of them probably too long, and i don't want to cut them. | |

1. Um... If you win, you get to brag about it...
2. Song length depends. The rules say ideal is 1:20-2:10 (min:sec) for DDR, 1:30-2:30 for ITG, and 1:15-2:10 for KB. The rules allow for a song as long as 2:45, though. | |

I would say that the ideal length is whatever the average length is in DDR or ITG. DDR files tend to be closer to 1:20-1:40 while ITG files tend to be more along the lines of 2 minutes. However, as I recall you are not directly penalised for length as long as you enter a song under 2:45 (over 2:45 is not allowed). But the judges and/or public reviewers may decide to penalise you anyway if they feel the song is longer than necessary.
For instance if I'm public reviewing DDR songs I tend to overlook the length if the song follows standard DDR structure (intro, verse, chorus, ending). However if a second verse gets tacked on unnecessarily then that can make the song feel too long. | |

That doesn't make any sense. Everyone knows reputation is the FB meter.

Actually, they're lying. If you win, you get an all-expenses-paid trip to Japan where you'll stay 3 days and 2 nights facing Slake in a one-on-one boxing match, armed with Sock 'em Boppers complete with Armored Core-style customization, in Virtual On-style arenas.

You say "I resign from the competition. BLueSS, please remove my song(s): [insert song title(s) here] from the competition."
P.S. I do not resign. | |

If you don't send anything in, your entry is ignored, invalidated, DQ'ed, whatever you wish.
