Thanks everybody for making me welcome.
I like the direction this discussion is going.
At first glance, the Seasons are a bit intimidating, not just for the overwhelming talent of the top players.
It can appear "cliquish" when folks know each others' real names, have a secret language, "unwritten rules," little in-jokes...
I appreciate the effort to articulate some history, guidelines and etiquette.
This might be a worthy idea.
I'm afraid I stepped on some toes early in my participation.
I thought I was "taking the mickey" in a friendly way about a string of bonus tracks that went up in a short period, and it was misconstrued.
I recall another misunderstanding along those lines that I wasn't involved in, but feelings were hurt.
Some of us (like me) get excited when a theme "strikes a chord," and we can't wait to crank out multiple tunes that we love.
Geoff's idea could be a good compromise.
If folks have a bunch of bonus tracks, hold off posting them until Wednesday.
Maybe wait 12 or 24 hours between bonus track posts...

Bonus tracks
....no bonuses be posted before Wednesday so as to reduce the number risk of someone's chosen entry being preempted by a bonus track is a good idea - it won't eliminate it but it might just help.
