I'd say Pay to Play is sort of like Polly and Speed Polly - there are two radically different versions, but it's pretty much the same song. So I'd say since Darth has a NVM pick already, Pay to Play should not be allowed. But I don't really care that much, either.

I'm happy to help out with updates after DcT goes off-radar. I may not be able to get to them instantly, but I can update enough that we should be cool.

We are getting to the bottom of the barrel here. I propose for the 8th pick only, all rules are off. Any song you want, as long as no one has taken that particular version. This would result in some killer final picks from all teams because you can basically have any song you want (although you might have to go with a live version or a demo or something. And someone can have Pay To Play if they want it, too.) Thoughts?

I need to know if we're doing this because I was planning on going to the Bleach scrap heap for my last pick.

To clarify: There are 12* songs on NVM and 12 teams. Birds, Vedder, and Ridley have not picked NVM songs yet. Maybe they don't want them, but I'm guessing they do.

*13 songs if you count Endless, Nameless.

Dammit, man! You and your math and being all correct with the numbers and s**t. ;) Okay, so there are three songs left and two teams that haven't picked.

I'm for 8th pick all rules are off too. I really have no idea what to pick next.

I am chopping Pay To Play. I was torn about that one anyway. Stupid grey area.

Anyway, I'll pick a VU cover, "Here She Comes Now"

Thanks PryTo, if you can keep things rolling, while dct and myself are out, that would be a big help. Thanks!

And officially, Pay to Play and Stay Away are both still on the table. However, if you already have a Nevermind track you will not be able to take either until Round 8 (if they're still available then).

Round 8 will be a free for all. Pick anything as long as it isn't a version that's on another team already.

What happens if we get to the 8th round and there are people who haven picked a Nevermind or In Utero or Bleach ( :wave: ) song yet and others start taking songs and based on how the order shakes out there are no songs from those albums left? There are only 2 Bleach songs left....3 if Downer counts (should it?...its on a reissue) and I've held off taking those cause I don't have a preference and there are other songs I want more. If those Bleach songs are taken am I invalid?
