The 30 day challenge: Felix vs London Student
Dear Felix Newspaper,
During these sedate months preceding summer, we at London Student would like to propose a duel. Beginning on Friday May 20, our two newspapers will go head to head in a well-known music challenge. Day by day we will each post a link to a music track under a specific theme (themes listed below). Our readers will judge which newspaper produces the best content, with the daily winner being chosen on the basis of the most comments under the post on their website, plus the number facebook likes for the link to their song, the most twitter retweets, plus the number of facebook comments. As you are a college of scientists, we’ve devised this simple equation for you.
Total Score = W + FBl +FBc +Trt
W = Website comments
FBl = Facebook links
FBc = Facebook comments
Trt = Twitter re-tweets
The newspaper with the highest total score wins. Each newspaper must post a new story each day explaining the competition and including both their own choice and the choice of the opposition. Each newspaper may then link to this website story from their Facebook and Twitter accounts.
Got it? Great. Now here are the themes:
Day 01: Your favourite song: Check out the first track here.
Day 02: Your least favourite song: Check out the second track here.
Day 03: A song that makes you happy: Check out the third track here.
Day 04: A song that makes you sad: Check out the fourth track here.
Day 05: A song that reminds you of someone: Check out the fifth track here.
Day 06: A song that reminds of you of somewhere
Day 07: A song that reminds you of a certain event
Day 08: A song that you know all the words to
Day 09: A song that you can dance to
Day 10: A song that makes you fall asleep
Day 11: A song from your favourite band
Day 12: A song from a band you hate
Day 13: A song that is a guilty pleasure
Day 14: A song that no one would expect you to love
Day 15: A song that describes you
Day 16: A song that you used to love but now hate
Day 17: A song that you hear often on the radio
Day 18: A song that you wish you heard on the radio
Day 19: A song from your favorite album
Day 20: A song that you listen to when you’re angry
Day 21: A song that you listen to when you’re happy
Day 22: A song that you listen to when you’re sad
