I think that there is a generation gap/style issue in many categories. I entered a song in rock instrumental which seemed the best genre for the overdriven guitar, bluesy song The Pioneer.....or so I thought. But when I judged many of the other songs, they were totally unlike mine and were mostly electronica or shredding. I could barely stand to listen for the requisite 15 seconds in many cases. I would bet that most people on OurStage are 30 or under. I don't think there is anything wrong with that, but it means it is unrealistic to expect to be competitive.
