Nirvana Song Tournament

[Birds in Hell]

Since I had to take the reigns on his behalf, I'm certainly OK with letting bodysnatcher change his pick to something else if he'd prefer when he gets back with us (whenever that is).

[PryTo]

See below

[Birds in Hell]

I was mistaken about bada's pick earlier, it should be the album version of Sifting.

[BigRedLedbetter]

Anyone else super excited to see Montage of Heck today?

[epilogue]

PryTo, d_v's final pick was Pay to Play. And mine was Bamboo Slaughter.

EDiT: oh darths 7th pick? Misread. Sorry.

[epilogue]

His seventh pick was Mrs Butterworth.

how long will first round voting last? I feel like I need some time... like through the weekend, at least.

also, should we send out a beacon to all rm'ers, through a new thread or something, to get more voters in here? I'd like to have those who didn't participate in the draft vote, too...

[bada]

Don't get your hopes up. It's normally hard to even get people who are in the contest to vote.

[PryTo]

^^ Exactly.

I'm fine with running round one until Monday morning. That gives everyone three days to pick winners.
