Team Breakdown and Registration

You must join the lowest number team that is lacking your position (producer, singer, or instrumentalist). If your position is filled on every team, then start the next team, and wait for others to join you. This will ensure teams are filled on a first come first serve basis.

For example if the first person to comment is a producer, they would make a top level comment in the thread as a 'TEAM 1: producer'. Then the next vocalist, and soloist to register must reply to the 'TEAM 1: producer' comment with their respective contribution. On the other hand, the next producer to register would move forward and create a top level comment as 'TEAM 2 producer' and wait for other members to join him/her.

Of course any contributor (vocalist, soloist, producer) could be the top level comment, which begins the creation of a team. If you would like contribute more that one role on a team, make sure to clearly indicate this to avoid confusion.

Any type of soloist, vocalist, or producer may join. Good luck.
