Rules: For two weeks you may only listen to any song three times. That is if you were to listen to any song more than three times in a two week period you get -1 point for every time you listen to it afterwards. You start out with 100 points.
So if you listen to AC/DC - Highway to hell only 3 times in two weeks you are okay, but if you listen to it more than that you add -1 to your score and have 99 and so on. (sorry for being so redundant!)
Objective: The point of this game/challenge/experiment isn't made to torment you by forbidding you listening to your favorite songs but to see how diverse your musical tastes are and for you to discover more music. If you have only a very limited selection of artist that you listen to you'll be forced to listen to more music and discover other artist than you're currently used to. For those who already have a diverse collection you will get to see to what extent your diversity lies.
Now to be fair I have to say you'd have to listen to more than 2.5 hours of music a day to participate as anyone who only listens to music in short amounts of time will ultimately come out ahead and that's not fair to others who have actually been made to listen to things they haven't used to.
You must also have a last.fm account or something similar that keeps track of what you're listening to.
This is just a fun experiment that some music lovers and those who feel that their musical collection are lacking might enjoy.
If you're interested let me know in this thread and state any suggestions you may have to better the experiment.
Are you ready to take The Challenge?
my last.fm is last.fm/user/exaltedphoton btw.
