I'll definitely ask them to check out these comments and I feel confident that they'll find a way to improve this one flawed area in their system.

Brian,
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us about these "genre" matters. I'm happy for the partnership between JPF and OurStage. I agree that in time things will be improved, even if it's only one (slightly) flawed area. Overall, OurStage is still ahead of the "game" on most of what they're doing, so with a bit of patience, feedback and brainstorming, I'm sure it will come together and get perfected! I bet that's what everyone's hoping, wishing & praying for, so let's keep at it.

Also, I'm very glad everyone here's being so open, honest and cooperative about sharing our thoughts, experiences and suggestions. Music contests involve thousands of people, so it effects the WHOLE community. Glad to see so much progress being made in such a short time!

Meanwhile, I'm encouraging everyone on these boards to continue sharing your thoughts and constructive ideas. That's what'll make the difference between "their stage" and Our Stage! LOL
