Hello Luzcypher. We noticed that our entry didn't make any of these two lists. Does that mean we were disqualified? Could you please let us know why if that is the case? We thought for sure it counted, as you commented on our post saying you enjoyed the harmonies. We are new to all of this so maybe there is something we did wrong. We are very grateful with the result of last weeks openmic where we got a lot of love and would like to continue submitting entries in the coming weeks, but it would help if we knew what things not to do in the future. Thank you!
Here's the entry,

No, you were upvoted. However, there are rules in place for a reason.
For example, the rule that says openmic must be the first tag.
When openmic is not the first tag the post will not be included in the weekly post and you miss out on votes from all the people following the OpenMic Trail.
You post still got upvoted, however.
:( So I guess I won't upload my submission videos to Dtube anymore. I think they always put Dtube as their first tag automatically. I'll just post to vimeo and make my steemit blog post with openmic as the first tag. Thanks for the explanation. Hopefully next week I can do this properly for once!
They used to require DTube be the first tag but that is no longer the case. You can use DTube but make sure openmic is the first tag and you need to embed a YouTube or Vimeo link in your post as well.
This is clearly explained more than once on every Open Mic post under the rules
There it is on the last part of the list of rules
I don't know how to make it any clearer than that.
Undertood. Thank you for clarifying.
