I kinda like the two-part, intertwining, side-by-side generational comparison to mother and daughter...

CONTEST RULES FOR
THE REDFIZZ $600 STIMULUS PACKAGE SWEEPSTAKES
THE BASICS
We want to hear a good song, dammit. We want it so bad, we're going to give
$500
to the artist that submits the best song over the course of one month. Runner-Up gets
$100
. All songs submitted to RedFizz between now and May 15 are automatically entered.
ELIGIBILITY
First of all, to submit a song, you must be a
registered
RedFizz user. Don't worry, it only takes about 15 seconds!
All songs submitted to RedFizz between 12:00 AM April 15, 2008 and 11:59 PM May 14, 2008 are automatically entered in the contest.
You may enter as many songs as you want
. But the songs have to be new to RedFizz; no remakes or re-uploads of previously submitted songs. Covers are ineligible for this contest.
SONG RIGHTS
As outlined in our
Terms of Service
, RedFizz is not out to steal your music or interfere with any contracts you may get. WITH YOUR PERMISSION, we may want to podcast songs or otherwise distribute them, but it will be entirely up to you. As soon as you remove a song from RedFizz, we no longer retain any rights to it. Fair enough?
HOW IT WORKS
To upload a song click the MYREDFIZZ link (beneath the alka-seltzer in the banner). Then click on the Band/Song Info tab. If you haven't added a band yet, there'll be a button there to do so. If you already have added a band, there'll be a button to submit a song.
Once the song is uploaded, it will go into our Backstage area (see top nav bar). This is where our users (including you, if you want to participate) decide which area a song gets published to: Featured (the homepage), Second Stage, or Rejects. But no matter which area your song goes to, it is eligible to win a prize in the contest. Even a song that winds up in Rejects could win this contest!
RedFizz's moderator (username: qualcomm) will choose the
Grand Prize
($500) winner based on his own mysterious tastes. However, he will certainly take any comments and votes into consideration, so it is in your interest to have your fans come and support you.
The
Runner-Up
($100) will be chosen by the mob. Whichever contest song has the highest Weighted Rating (as of 11:59 PM May 27, 2008, with a minimum of five votes) will get the $100. It is therefore even more in your interest to have your fans come and support you. One cotisil: the winner of the Grand Prize cannot win the Runner-Up prize as well. If the Grand Prize winner has the highest Weighted Rating, the Runner-Up prize will go to whichever song has the second-highest Weighted Rating.
HOW IT ALL ENDS
Given the deluge of songs we have received in the first 10 days of this contest, it has become apparent that all of the entries will not be published until June or July. We will announce the winners of this contest two weeks after the last entry is published on the site. So, if the last entry is published on July 2, 2008, winners will be announced on July 16. This will give later entries a fair chance to be voted on for the Runner-Up prize, which depends on user ratings. Both prizes will be awarded in the form of a cashier's check, sent wherever the hell you tell us to.
