What's a Blip Duel?
First, this is my definition and rules, yours may differ.
Second, why a Blip Duel? Well last night as I was preparing to head to @MerlottesBar for my gig, I noticed that @MerlottesBar, Sam and @TaraMaeThornton, Tara were having a bit of fun taking turns blippin Garth Brooks tunes. That was it, I immediately thought of Blip Duels. I mentioned to them I wouldn't mind at all if tonight, instead of Smooth Sunday, maybe they might want to have a friendly Blip Duel. They have some interest, though no idea what it would entail.
Third, the following is designed for ease, fun, and friendly competition. We don't keep score, and the"winner" is whom ever thinks they are, (makes for a fun argument amongst the competitors).
So here's how it could work, again, this is my approach, feel free to make up your own rules. Blip Duels pit DJ's head to head in a live set. One starts, by blipping a tune. The challenger then blips either another tune by that artist they think is better, or a cover of the tune blipped they think is better. The original blipper than has to either top that blip with a better tune by that artist, or by the artist that does the cover. And so it goes till one or the other runs out of tunes by that artist. As a wildcard, the challenger could go a whole different direction and blip a different artist with a new challenge to the original blipper to top it. Or the original blipper could do the same. Confused yet? Once you're in the midst of a Blip Duel it comes easily.
Finally, you must issue the challenge. ex. @Dj_Midori, I challenge you to a Blip Duel, are you DJ enough to accept? then Mai would respond @FranciscoIV, I accept your challenge and my blips will make your knees quake and your hands shake! Or some other ridiculous insult, which is optional. Then @Dj_Midori would make the first blip with the following text in the blip, @FranciscoIV #blipduel top this you salted guinea pig! [name of artist-song title] . Again the ridiculous insult is desired though optional.
Need more detail? Sorry! Make it up sourself...
See ya tonight @MerlottesBar! Blip Duelers be ready! (cause I might just challenge YOU!)
