Why are there less voters? This is probably one of the more interesting games 
You should do a round of promo Pedro.

This round I didn't send PM to random people promoting it, besides there are less known songs...

Every round, there's a theme. All the players in the game who signed up with an album (in the very beginning of the game) must send in a song from their signed up album that fits best with the theme. For example, if the theme was Uptempo, and somebody signed up with The Fame in the beginning of the game, then a wise choice would be to select Poker Face. They then PM their entry to Pedro.
Once Pedro receives all the entries, he posts them on here and lets the public save two songs(it's usually two songs) and vote off a certain amount of songs (it's usually two or three). People usually save the two songs they think that fit best in the categories, and then vote off the ones they think fit the worse.
While the public is doing that, the Judges of the game do something different. Instead of saving and voting off, they just rate all of the songs on how well they think it fits in the categories (the Judges PM their rates, while the public do it on here).
Its hard to explain the rest, but you'll get it.

Choose the album, then a song (First Results - Round 7)
Hello ATRL!
Welcome to the seventh round of...
"Choose the album, then a song", the name says it all. You'll have to pick an album and stick with it during the entire game, until you get kicked out. Each round there will be a different challenge and in that challenge you'll ONLY be allowed to use ONE song of the album you picked.
All the players will choose a song from the album for each round and hope he doesn't get eliminated. After that the public (50%) and the judges (50%) will rate the entries.
There is some stuff you must pay attention to: 1. You can NOT use the same song twice, you have to wait three rounds until you can use it again;
2. You can ONLY use the same song THREE TIMES;
3. If you fail the deadline, I will submit a random song for you from that album. If you miss the deadline three times, you're eliminated;
3. I allow you to ask for help, you can PM whoever you want, but a person can only vote ONCE;
4. The JUDGES can not be biased, if you detect any unfair move from a judge, report it to me I'll analyze the case.
With this being said let me introduce you to...
THE JUDGES
1. Pedro
2. Regina George
3. Señor Emÿro
4. sumthintoxic82
SEVENTH ROUND
In this round the contestants had to pick a song from the album they chose that fits into this category:
Tell Me A Story
Now that they are all in and you, public, and the judges decided who did better, let's find out the results. Remember the judges' rates will count 50% and the public votes other 50%.
Here are the results:
1. castle13 - Taylor Swift - Speak Now (Deluxe Edition): Speak Now
Votes: Zero Off + Five Saves = +5 Points ( 2nd Place of the public votes)
Judges:

I bet it was an easy round for you. Basically the guy is going to get married but Taylor knows that is wrong, he wants her. The song is located in a wedding. It’s very typical of her this kind of song to be honest, but I can imagine the video and the actions happening, she was brave at the end! Aha! Nice!

Maybe you could do better, this goes into apologizing to a person for the things you did, or how you felt before, she does tell a little story in the second verse and stuff, but since Avril is a great songwriter I’m going to have to say there could be better choices.

As you know if I were you I wouldn’t have sent this one. This definitely doesn’t tell a story, you might imagine one while listening to it (when she is saying stuff like Tiny hands that’s you…) or think about specific moments, but she does not tell a story as wished for, it’s implicit though.

I love this song but it doesn’t exactly tell a story, goes into Avril’s comment, it’s very about telling why it didn’t work, the relationship, you know? But you can make a story out of the lyrics.

I like the song and stuff, and it does tell a story but comparing with some entries it’s a little weak. Nevertheless you respected the theme.
