All right, randomizing done! Here are the results: Aquatunic will work on JFTF's theme Luder will work on Pater's theme Christian will work on Austenite's theme Pater will work on Danish's theme Danish will work on Dan's theme Dan will work on KJ's theme JFTF will work on Christian's theme KJ will work on Luder's theme Austenite will work on Aqua's theme We can hash out the deadline details later. I'm also guessing there are no rules regarding instrumentation, but I think we should keep the length at most 10 minutes.

Good! I did like KJ's theme :) I will upload a more naked version of my theme tomorrow, but I think I will leave it partly clothed in classical harmony, for decency's sake. :P

Perfect! I'll just sit and wait for Austenite's theme^^ :musicwhistle: Just one thing: I think we could save this "secret santa" method for the next challenge, because it would be interesting to maintain the mystery about who picked our themes. We should be able to collect everybody's email until the next challenge (we don't even know when it's going to happen!).

Ok so I'm just going to randomize assignments based on one of the methods provided (probably not the email one), since I feel like its going to take forever for a consensus on how we assign themes to one another. I'm going to add in Rob's name to the random drawing and hopefully he'll have something for us tomorrow. I'll post the results of the drawing momentarily.

That hat thing is looking more and more appealing by the minute, lol. Well I really really really really wanted the whole secret surprise thing but since this is getting so darn complicated and I'm not sure if collecting everyone's emails in a timely fashion is practical... we could just go back to the hat thing with Danish... :veryunsure: "All I wanted was for us to enjoy this challenge in the most amusing way possible and it just turned into a soggy mess :sadtears: " *gives up on life and starts making electronic music* *months later, releases EP about space sharks*

I like that idea. It adds an element of secrecy and that always makes things more fun! What say the others?

You know what would be PERFECT for this name-picking problem? An online "Secret santa" generator web site!! Here's one: https://www.drawnames.com/secret-santa-generator. We just need to add names and e-mails, the site will pick all the names and distribute them (in a way that no one will pick his own name) and send us secretly via e-mail. Then, everyone will have the theme to work on and it will remain secret until the composer post it here. What do you think? It's not complicated and it's quite impartial. I can do it. I just need everyone's e-mail ^^

This has gotten so complicated! Why not just put someone in charge of pulling them from a hat and letting us all know?

That last idea seems the best to me. If we all take the theme that came after ours, that would be a pretty fair way to handle it. We'll have to wait until we're sure that everyone who is going to participate has submitted their theme, of course. So far I think that just means we're waiting for Austenite. Unless someone else posts to the thread stating their desire to participate, we could just assume that Austenite will be the last one and begin as soon as he has submitted his theme. How does everyone else feel about this? Any objections?
