Fan Favorites Submissions Portal Is Now Open On Discord
Added 2022-11-05 21:22:53 +0000 UTCHello everyone! We are now accepting submissions for a special Nov-Dec Fan Favorites episode. Please read more about it below, and remember, if you'd like to submit a Fan Favorites request, you must do so on our Discord in the Fan Favorites channel.
This Month’s Theme: The Twelve Songs of Doug-mas
If you were to ask me to react to just one song…what would it be? What song is at the top of your personal wish list? We’re closing in on the end of the year, and I’m planning to take December off from Fan Favorites to better enjoy the holidays with my family. So, we’re planning a big year-end send-off for Fan Favorites. Someone recently told me that I could be Santa for Halloween, and I’m taking that idea and running with it. Taking our cue from the ‘Twelve Days of Christmas’, I’ll be selecting the 12 most up-voted songs in our big year-end poll to ‘gift’ the community with a super-sized Fan Favorites episode. So, here’s your chance! And…I’m raising the time limit for each recommended song to 20 minutes. I’m looking forward to seeing what’s on all your wish lists!
Here’s the stipulations:
• The submission needs to be a publicly available YouTube video
• The song needs to have not yet been included on a Daily Doug YouTube, Extended Play Lounge, Behind the Score, Fan Favorites, or Council Chat presentation.
• The song duration limitation this time is HIGHER THAN USUAL but still in effect…keep your recommendation to less than 20 minutes.
• NO MULTIPLE-SONG COMBINATIONS, PLEASE…A single track as a unified suite is fine, but I don’t want to listen to (for example) three or four shorter songs that make up about 20 minutes.
This Month's Timetable:
• Discord Submissions Start: Saturday, November 5
• Discord Submissions End: Saturday, November 19
• Patreon Poll Starts: Sunday, November 20
• Patreon Poll Ends: Saturday, November 26
• Fan Favorites Video Release: Late November/Early December
Comments
Yes, Discord was originally launched by and for gamers. I was happily surprised when Doug started using it, as I had never seen it used like this before. It still cracks me up when my Discord Icon (40K Black Templars) shows up on the Daily Doug Discord threads.

2022-11-06 23:30:22 +0000 UTCDiscord is kind of like Slack or MS Teams but is decentralized and started for (and by I think) gamers.

2022-11-05 22:13:31 +0000 UTCHi Doug, Unfortunately, I'm not on Discord, but I submitted my request to you on Patreon. I'm guessing I'm the only one asking about that song, as there's no mention of it... 🤷♂️
