Coming Soon
Steemit Open Mic is growing so fast that a lot of people are entering without really reading the rules so I want to do a little house cleaning for those entering the contest.
The bigger this grows the easier it is to miss someone's entry post so following these rules makes us see you have entered so we can upvote you.
For more on the rules read, What Are The Rules To Enter Steemit Open Mic And Why Do We Have Rules Anyways?
Steemit Open Mic is a live music contest and we need to know that you are really playing or singing us a song for this contest in particular. That's why to qualify for prizes you must say "Steemit Open Mic Week" (next week number) at the beginning of your video just before you play or sing the song. If you don't or if you edit in later onto a prerecorded performance you will not qualify for prizes.
If your song is an original song then you MUST put the word "original" in your title. Original songs get a small bonus right now and it is easier to find all the original songs with the word added in the title.
The next thing that is very important it to begin your title with "Steemit Open Mic Week (the current week number)" and place that as the first words of your title or I may not be able to find your post at all.
Here is a perfect example of a correctly titled post to enter Steemit Open Mic for an original song.
This would be a perfectly titled post for a cover song entering the contest.
Theses posts are really easy to find in the feed and upvote them. They can easily be spotted so none of them get missed.
Also, @andybets from steemreports.com is working on a chart that is targeting those keywords to sort all entries by originals and covers.
It is SO cool and you can check it out with this sneak peak of the Steemit Open Mic Chart
NOTE: The order this chart lists the performances has no bearing on choosing the finalists. Just because a video is at the top doesn't mean they will win the contest.
Steemit Open Mic Week 59 performances are in and there's still time to vote for your favorites.
Great songs and performances this week. Have a listen to them below and be sure to show your support and upvote your favorites.
It's all in good fun and community spirit and I want to thank everyone for their enthusiastic support.

Thank you always bro @luzcypher for this lovely long list to browse through of all our talented participants. @Passion-Ground might have inspired me to write about my judging process soon as well. We will see when I have time to draft that up. But for now I shall journey into this week's world of music and I look forward to the inspiring cultural experience.
@verbal-d - Insofar as sharing some of your methods that comprise the judging process, it would be quite an honor and a privilege to get a small glimpse into the mind of such a fluent and poetic giant as yourself! I'm totally waiting on that future post with much anticipation, brother!
You're really good at this.
There are some really good entries this week.
Time to get lost exploring
I will message you later on Discord about something important :)
Thank you for all you do on the panel.

Thanks for being a part of the Open Mic community and for sharing your music.
So so glad to find this !!!! Will participate next week probably if not busy ...😄😄😄
Look forward to hearing you.
How the heck do you even keep track of this many entries, let alone judge them all? That's quite the list of entries! Judging this could be quite the challenge.
Hey, @luzcypher! Could you tell me when can I upload my week 60s entry? Every week contest starts on monday, isn't it?
