I didn't suggest a 12-team tournament, and I'm not running this thing, so feel free to take over and run round three as you see fit. My suggestion is for a three way matchup, winner takes all.

All Apologies (In Utero)
In Bloom (Nevermind)
The Man Who Sold the World (Unplugged)
Molly's Lips
Plateau (Unplugged)
They Hung Him On a Cross
Endless Nameless (Live and Loud)

vs.

bada
Sliver (Incesticide)
Breed (Nevermind)
Pennyroyal Tea (In Utero)
D-7
Here She Comes Now
Lake of Fire (Unplugged)
Talk to Me
Sifting (live at Rhino Records 1989)

vs.

Birds in Hell
Dive (Incesticide)
Floyd The Barber (Bleach)
Very Ape (In Utero)
Oh The Guilt
Stain
Mexican Seafood
On a Plain (Nevermind)
Something in the Way (BBC Sessions)

Oh geez, sorry for this shit show of a tournament guys. I really didn't think it through like I should have. If anything, I've learned to leave tournaments to people who know what the hell they are doing.

So, yeah, we have a three way championship round I guess. Kinda lame, but what are you gonna do? I agree with PryTo that we just roll with it, and winner take all (bragging rights?).

Again, sorry for the mess of a tournament. Thanks to all who participated, and more importantly, ran things in my absence.

Between the final three teams, I like spenno's the best.

Yeah, this was so much fun. I'm not going to even remember the hiccups and changes along the way. That stuff doesn't even matter. You did a great job, d_v! Sorry you had some personal stuff pop up. I hope everything's alright on that end for you.

Thanks so much for getting this going and contributing as much as you could. :heartbeat:

Vote for bada.

Everyone's got great teams. But Talk to Me and especially Sliver push his team to the top by a nose.

Good game, errybody!

I had fun, too. Picking is the fun part and we managed to do that without too many bumps. I also got to fall in love with Nirvana all over again. Didn't really discover too many rarities that I thought were gems, but I was pleasantly surprised at the number of non-studio LP songs I hadn't heard before. Every team had worthy picks, especially in the first five or six rounds.

My vote goes to bada

3 worthy finalists for sure.

I like IHTP probably the best top to bottom. Vote for IHTP


This was a blast to do. Thanks for running it guys (d_v, dct, BiH). Long live Nirvana.

I've had a lot of fun revisiting Nirvana through this thing - I'd say it's been a roaring success, d_v! Thanks again.
