Indeed it is! The last May game has just finished, so I will be tallying the scores, reporting the results, and starting June as soon as I find the time.

At the end of May, we say good bye to 4 artists:

Foreverman
musicalmaven
notyou2
sempaispellcheck

If my counting is correct, 39 songs from 21 artists will be on the shelves in June.
Overall scoreboard will be updated soon, and the first round of June games will be released tomorrow (hopefully).
NOTE: I will be changing the format of game labels to make it easier for all to determine which games are for which song.

[sempaispellcheck]

Invites for June's first round of games have been sent.

My apologies for the delay - I've been busy.

[Gromph]

is there a limit of song a player can have ? cause i had 3 songs and from the result of may, i think i should release a new one ?

[sempaispellcheck]

Each artist only has 5 singles to release over the course of the tourney. You have already released all of yours.

[Gromph]

ah ok!, ty for the info

[dustin800]

Yeah, but since there are less people playing now other singles arent getting knocked out so basically if you did well early you get punished. I had a decent lead and have no chance to win since the current leader has 4 singles and there aren't enough people playing now to eliminate any of his while I can't get anymore.

[sempaispellcheck]

Now that we're down below 40 songs, I'll change the outcomes to make it fairer.

Starting in June, if a song is ranked:
1-10: Song stays in charts, artist releases new song
11-20: Song stays in charts, artist does not release new song
21-30: Song removed from charts, artist releases new song
31-40: Song removed from charts, artist does not release new song

Also, since bonuses increase from month to month, but remain proportional to each other, there is a much larger difference in sales between the first two songs in January and the first two songs in June. It's never too late to close the gap.

[dustin800]

Thanks for the adjustment

[sempaispellcheck]

No problem. It was necessary.

Thanks for reminding me to make it.

Hi all!

While we wait for the first half of June to finish, I just want to let you know that I am currently looking for players to sign up for the Official Christmas tourney - try your hand at a bunch of different settings on the Christmas map we all know and love! Sign up here: viewtopic.php?f=90&t=182754

Thank you!

All June games have now concluded, and results have been tabulated.
friesuschrist has withdrawn from the tournament. However, all games played against him will still count for his opponents.
Funnily enough, even if friesus had not withdrawn from the tourney, he would have been eliminated after this month's games anyway. Heh.

The first set of July games may go out early Sunday morning, but will probably go out either Sunday afternoon or late Sunday night.
