REM Song Tournament: country feedback wins!

[PHATJ]

It lost against Bittersweet Me I believe, it deserved it, Bittersweet Me is a lot stronger.

[chewm]

Bittersweet Me still undeservedly defeated Hyena to.

not one bit surprised that the warner years w/berry are dominating.

[chewm]

Im not surprised either but sightly dissapointed.
Especially since Green is the best of these other than Automatic.

[stip]

that's a mighty fine mix there. I don't know that it's my top 16, but the only song I think shouldn't be there is bang and blame.

[chewm]

Wtf Kenneth and Strange Currencies arent favorites of mine.
I love Bang and Blame but it has beaten way superior songs already.
Still a strong list.

[Chris_H_2]

this tourney is tainted. there's no way so fast, so numb should not be in the sweet 16.

This is only the first round. There will be two or three more and then we will finish with a special deluxe stip final round where stip gets two extra votes per round and can resurrect fallen songs. Stip could just resurrect songs forever so maybe this tournament will never end.

[Mike]

There will also be a second tournament afterwards where two new subforums will be created. In one of them the IRS songs will fight against eachother and the post-IRS songs will fight in the other one. In a third subforum we will let the 8 winners of both tournaments fight eachother afterwards.

[Mike]

Then a new subforum will be created where we will vote for "Best moment of the REM tournament" and "Best REM tournament poster"

I stand by the crazy idea that we could have multiple tournaments going at once.

[AndySlash]

that's unpossible.
