A little wordplay on “live at church”/“LIV after church”:

The girl Drake is talking to likes to have fun, but her family is very religious. She might attend church, but after hours she would rather party at exclusive Miami clubs.

In which there happens to be a nightclub in Miami, “305” by the name of LIV that she perhaps attends to after church on Sundays.

He then plays on the phrase “we’re not in Kansas anymore” from The Wizard of Oz. Dorothy said it when she landed in Oz and literally wasn’t in Kansas. Everything was very different and much more dangerous.

This stripper definitely isn’t in Kansas (or church) anymore.

Same reference was used by André 3000 on “Sixteen”.

Those that were in Season 1 know that I’m pretty loosey goosey with prizes. So don’t just stop participating because there’s no way you can win any of the prizes, I might still toss you a bone ;)

You can only win one prize. So if you win the Grand Prize and also have the most points, you can’t win both. The person with the second most points would get the prize for most points. And so on.

If you get the most in multiple categories then you get to choose what you want to win! So if you have the most points and transcriptions, you can choose either one of those prizes and then the other goes to the person with the second most in the category you didn’t choose

Hit me up if you have a legit excuse to not participate in a certain week. If you have 0 annotations and 0 transcriptions for 2 weeks throughout the season then you aren’t up to the challenge and will get dropped (might raise this to like at least 15 points if it seems like some people just aren’t even trying)

Season 2 will start at midnight on September 15th, 2013 and will end at midnight on November 24th, 2013 (just before Thanksgiving)

So like, SUNDAY NIGHT at 12AM EST the first week will start. So Sunday at midnight EST, the first week will start. Monday will go by. Tuesday will go by. Wednesday will go by. Thursday will go by. Friday will go by. Saturday will go by. SUNDAY WILL GO BY. Then that SUNDAY NIGHT at 12AM EST (midnight) the scores will reset and you’ll know if you’ve won/lost by then.

7 days will go by, thus making it a week, then the next week will start

Remember this guide?

Also long annotations aren’t trill, try to keep it concise and don’t include all this speculation garbage (unless it truly makes sense and isn’t a stretch)

Do not upload transcriptions that already exist on RG. Do not upload two of the same song. Do not upload instrumentals unless you are going to break them down well.

Table of contents annotations will not count.

SERIOUSLY this is meant to be fun and competitive. I feel the need to win, but if you cheat/bend the rules then that’s not really fun for anyone.

LOVE YOU ALL
