Thank you so much! This is a great suggestion!
I started with something similar you suggested #650068. But, it was just that I couldn't come up with better idea for daily engagement and also I thought it might be better to involve some gamification to the pool, I revamped the pool and applied Billboard.
Now, definitely after listening to your views/idea, I've got every clue what and how to do a ~Music Pool.
That's why, I took this August time as a grace period. I didn't go with the main pool. You can see I've been asking for suggestions in every post about it.
Here are a few things, I couldn't get though?
  • SN Battle of the Jams?
  • SN.BOTJ?
  • What would be better to decide the winner/winners? Would it be the number of Stackers that zap or the number of Sats zapped on a particular song entry or decide it by the TOP filter?
this territory is moderated
I thought more about the sats amount vs the zaps amount. I think you are right, the winner/s should be based on the quantity of zaps. 1sat one vote.
or a mixture of the zaps amount and sats amount. I do think the entry should be as low as possible tho.

Thanks! I'm gonna lauch it today.

I'm glad you appreciated the suggestion.
I should have clarified better. Stacker News Battle of The Jams or SNBOTJ is a play on battle of the bands. Bands battle each other and the winner gets a prize. a jam is slang for a song. So stackers battle each other for the best song submission.
I would rather the winners be based on amount zapped. in the end that's all that matters.
Good luck!
