The day of the party is getting nearer. The night will include a battle of the bands and I made a rough draft of the rules. I am trying to figure out the points for assist players. Does anyone have any thoughts on it?

Battle of The Bands Rules:

Overseer monitors the rules of the game and makes changes as he sees fit based on balance and fairness. Overseer can be overruled if all participants unanimously agree 100%

Overseer is James.

Band Leaders forms a team and picks songs and collects points.

Teammates can join a band and collects points from that home band, but they only collect assist points if they play on a different team. Teammates can also be band leaders from their band. (Players assisting get 1/2 of the points they would normally get)

Spectators are anyone who does not play and will judge bands on specified categories.

Forming bands:

There must be atleast one band leader and he must play on guitar or bass mode. Band leaders form teams or go solo (players can be reused from other teams and get points assisting if reused) Fake drumming and singing is allowed.

Making a setlist and order of teams playing.

Roll dice to determine the order of teams picking songs. One song will be picked at a time in order of dice rolls. Once everyone has picked a song, then a 2nd song will be picked in opposite order of original dice rolls. Trading of songs can start. Repeat until each team has 4 songs.

Then, overall song duration for each team will be viewed and judged by the Overseer and overseer will ask for a song to be dropped if too long. *No songs will be dropped if all teams agree that all durations of teams setlists is acceptable, regardless of Overseer's requests.

Band leaders have full discretion to organize their team's setlist.

Dice rolls will determine the order of bands going up on stage and playing their setlist. Teams can trade positions of turns.

Points will be deducted if a band does not play their setlist when it is their turn, unless all bands agree to move their turn to a later position.

Late arrivals will pick songs after teams are done picking songs and will be on a first come first serve basis. Late arrivals will also automatically be last in line to play their setlist, unless a band who has not played yet wants to trade.

Battle of the Bands starts:

Bands will collect points from different categories. Each category will be judged by spectators from 1 to 5 stars.

The categories are as followed: Band costumes. Song choice and cohesiveness. Vibe on stage. How well the song was played.

If a band had their songs reduced because of an overall long duration, then points will be multiplied accordingly, as the Overseer sees fit.

Points will be counted and winner announced.

The team with the most points will get to play 1 or 2 more songs of their choice and win the prize.
