So anyone who was a member of PWF knows I like putting on little tournaments, and with all the tourneys that seem to be going on, I figure I could maybe do one!
Now, don't worry, this isn't an efedding tourney, it's WAY easier!
This will be a 'music tourney.'
How it would work:
People will sign up I will make brackets Match ups will have two people, for example: Jack and Josh Those two will simply post a youtube link to a song...any song they want. Then, the other people in the tourney vote on who posted the better song. Guy with most votes moves on to next round until one supreme champion is remaining.
Anyways, does this sound like something people would be interested in? Let me know, I'll try to find a way to do it, hopefully to involved guys from KoP and UWL, that is, if there is a large enough turn out.

Hmm I'd be interested in this. Would each round be put in a certain genre, or how would it go?

thats a good idea...honestly, i really haven't thought it that far through...depending on how many people are in it, that would probably help to mix it up.
One rule would be that a song can only be used once, so people can't just keep posting the same ones over and over...which would also add to a 'save the good one, but don't save too long' attitude.
Honestly, i'm willing to work it however would make people happy, it's not something that would really take that much work to tweak.

OK! So here is who I have signed up so far (from both feds)
Sterling Esix Semmel Masa Callaway Noble Obscene Galen Ronan Flap Kaard Hart Sinclair Arch Leopold Jeof Sharp
The game will take place on PWF's boards, so that way people from both KoP and UWL will have to make new profiles (or use old ones, if formerly from there) and we can fill up their OOC board without it knocking any other OOC posts out of the way.
On Sunday, I will post the start of the round. There will be rules for each round (certain genre, decades, or other type of thing to make the song choices interesting). Once I post the start of the round, ALL participants will post a youtube video with their song choice. NOTHING ELSE. You can not argue why your song should win...it must stand alone. Results, and new round guidelines will be posted the following Sunday (each round will be a week)
Once a song is chosen, it can never again be used in the game. Not for other rounds, not for later in that round. If someone gets your song before you do, tough luck. First post gets it.
Once everyone posts a song, then you will PM me your ranking from best to worst. I will calculate the votes (this will work exactly like the old power rankings.)
The two with the lowest point totals are eliminated. (two eliminations at a time gives us 8 total rounds. I can change this to be 16 total rounds, if you would all prefer a longer game.
My only request for those who want to play is...keep voting even if you are eliminated, as that will keep it more interesting.
Anyways, if there are no objections, I will start the game this Sunday. If there are objections or problems, let me know and we can work it out.

"Once a song is chosen, it can never again be used in the game."
I know this means if I post say 'All Shook Up' by Elvis then I can't post it again. But if Venom (for example) posts 'All Shook Up' in an earlier round is that song dead to all or just Venom?

dead to all.
even within the same round. First come first serve. The idea is hopefully near the end, a lot of the 'default' great songs are gone and people have to stretch a bit more.

Everyone's songs are posted, so go and vote!
If we get all the votes in early, then I can get results up early...
Remember, if you are still active and don't vote, then you are DQ'd.
If you are not an active member...feel free to vote anyways! The more, the better!

alright, I still need Flap, Noble, and Sharp to vote and then we are good to go.
Deadline is whenever I wake up tomorrow....
Remember, no vote is an automatic DQ.
THAT said, others who are out of the tourney, or not in the tourney at all can check it out and send in their votes as well.
