Let us do something new by celebrating the old! WHAT YOU SAY!! We're doing covers. I haven't worked out all the kinks yet, but there are 10 'formats' this time - each is covering a BotB entry from a certain year in BotB's history. The BotB year begins and ends on May 11th. That's when this site launched! To make things more complicated the cover entries can be any format a BotBr wants.

If you want to do a
remix where you only sample the source material that's cool. If you want to do an
allgear that's also cool. If you want to do someone's
MarioPaint with
SID that's also cool too!!

** just a headsup that the entry submission functionality for this is still in the works! updates soon!!
