Best Decade Tournament 2000s: mike wins for realz!

[Brett]

I'm impressed that I was able to take picks from artists that nobody else had. It wasn't something I had any intention of doing, but when I got more than halfway through, and it was still the case, I decided to see how long I could take it without giving up anything essential.

I'm also really thrilled that I could take the final song from my favorite album ever for my tenth pick. I was concerned that it would possibly go earlier, and I thought about pulling the trigger several times, but the gamble paid off.

I almost picked a GYBE song but I figured you were gonna pick one at some point so I didn't.

[stip]

if bart ever reappears he can pick two songs

[Jorge]

Feels kind of unfair to vote for/against Bart with an incomplete team.

[stip]

he's had days to get those picks. I was going to change his spot in the brackets but once it's published i'd have to redo the whole thing. You can always abstain from that match until he shows up. I want to relisten to the playlists anyway, myself.
