Tournament Rules

[epilogue]

Yeah, this thing is getting super ugly.

[Anders]

Another round of tough eliminations. Can't see who will win this.

[chewm]

All of these were easy.

[Anders]

Some fantastic songs just left the tournament, like Jeremy, Daughter, Immortality, Red Mosquito, Given To Fly and Of The Girl.

Red Mosquito is still hanging on

[Anders]

I see that now. Sometimes left, just when I thought it had survived.

[liebzz]

I get more excited voting for the latter albums than the first ones. Immortality going is a sad occasion indeed.

[hlniv]

Don't the rules say that 3 songs from the early albums will all survive to the bracket? Why are we voting these down to two right now?

[stip]

We changed the format to do survivor all the way down

[stip]

I will be away this weekend, so the next round will probably be up until Sunday night or so, depending on whether or not I get to a place where I can easily shut down/set up the next rounds

[stip]

The next round of matches will be to determine the winner of each individual album, although the top two songs from each will still be advancing

[stip]

and all albums are available to vote simultaneously

[Norah]

wait so we have a round that's irrelevant?

[stip]

Semi-irrelevant. It still enables us to declare a winner for each album

[Norah]

why not just declare the song with the fewest votes the in the last round the album winner?

[stip]

because not every vote counts that way

[Jorge]

Red Mosquito

[Anders]

Still voting to eliminate.

[stip]

correct. we will always vote to eliminate

[E.H. Ruddock]

what is hilarious and sad about RM is that we'll choose the album winner, then when we get to final rounds, the album runner-up will somehow advance past the album winner.
