The timeframe probably seems too constricting for most. Maybe expanding to a sort of monthly/bimonthly week-long "Midiweek" or something would get more people to contribute.
The first session managed to extricate 4 midis out of nowhere within a two hour time frame. Now that the sessions are being made longer with a view to allowing more people to join and for participants to work on their entries for longer, I'm getting less people appearing. :S
I imagine that with the way things are going right now, if the time span was made any longer at all, people would just ignore the sessions entirely. What if in the middle of "MIDIweek", nobody came up with anything for a day? The thread would get pushed down and soon forgotten, and nothing else would happen until the week was up. :( That's the way I see it, anyhow.

I finished mine, but I got distracted by RL things and missed the time limit. I can still upload if you want.
By all means do. If anyone else who wanted to participate wants to share what they have so far anyway, please go ahead and do so. It just won't be made part of this week's session, or really counted as a speedMIDI.
But this is what irks me: this is speedMIDIing, so the idea is to work on something and submit whatever you can come up with, regardless of how in/complete it is. That's the point of a constricting time frame, too, in that it is meant to encourage you to adjust your working pace and time management to account for any obstacles that may bar you from coming up with something totally perfect. No one's passing judgement here, so it's okay to submit something that sounds like crap.
Eh, I'd like to continue holding these sessions, but they won't prove terribly fruitful going at this rate. :|
