[VGMC] Video Game Music Contest 18 announcement!! Noms are 4/17!!

Board 8

Lock Threshold Change
The requirement to lock a song is being bumped from 6 +s up to 7. I debated bumping this even up to 8, but last year locks didn't go super insane so I think a bump by one will do for now. But with our community holding pretty strong after the influx we got after locks were introduced I think it's almost a requirement to raise the number. Those with a good memory may remember I almost did this last year even, but yeah I can't let it go by as it was any longer.

The Schedule
9pm Wednesday, April 17th - Nominations open, 5 unique nominations allowed with no limit to supports.

Whoa. Buddy. Pal. Bro. Yes. But also oh god. I wonder if we're likely to straight up start filling the cap immediately...

Anyway I'm just happy about the support fix, I put in my request on the lock system revision because I was concerned over how damaging it'd be with this change but there's really no way to know for sure without actually doing this. If it does end up being absolute bedlam then hey at least i can say i was right (but just in case i will say that you might want to put in a clarification or something that it could get emergency bumped up to at least 8 lol, the idea of locks potentially running out before even the unique nom limit is reached is scary!!!)
