2013 song tournament A: Thejambi Wins!

[stip]

I was so close to getting Given To Fly.

you were, but it was absurd that it was still there. Same for Grievance, actually

[epilogue]

I'm surprised that one was still unclaimed.

i dont know about everyone else, but just putting together my favorite team, not worried about how it will be voted on, and my 3 picks are all in my top 10 ( and there are still 2 songs available from my top 10 ) and GTF isnt in it, even though its an awesome song

I think 8 of my top 10 are gone. I'm really surprised one of remaining two hasn't gone yet. The other is first round talent, but doesn't have a very big fanbase on his board. So, it's not so surprising to me.

I'm doing a bit of both, I'll readily admit I nabbed Black largely because nobody else had yet.

You did the right thing, I think. I would have put money on that guy not making it back your way. And your team is so strong.

[stip]

i need to go back and read the part in the rules where I wrote you had to draft all these mid teir songs from no code through binarual before you could get to the good stuff

It wasn't entirely strategic, I listened to Ten this week and enjoyed every minute.

With his third pick in this draft....
Thejambi selects.....
Betterman

Are you a wizard at Fantasy Football? I have no idea how you managed to get the songs you've gotten. But color me impressed.

I'm pretty damn good at FFL. My first two picks are my top two PJ songs and Betterman is what sold me on Pearl jam when I bought my first CD ever with vitalogy. This actually isn't how I wanted my top 3 to shape out but I'm happy so far.

You fucking should be! You've got one of the teams to beat right now, in my opinion. You're absolutely in the top three. FOR NOW.

Well shall see how the playlist comes together. There are a couple I like more than mine actually.

Subconscious Strategy.

Spoiler: show

I've heard it's the first track on LB. But, shhhhhh!

Yeah the playlist aspect is a fun monkey wrench (no pun intended). I can't wait to see how that goes. That might cause me to overthink and fuck up my whole team in the next tourney.

i never had a chance to get your vote

These things aren't won with the first 3 or 4 songs, they are won with the middle of the pack songs that you pick.

But Stip told me you all picked middle of the pack songs in the first 3 or 4 rounds.

like any fantasy team. your top picks should be top picks

this is true.

Exactly. And there are enough great PJ songs to go around for all of us in the first few rounds. It's the songs in the middle that some people love and some people hate that make or break it.

[LetMeSleep]

GTF and in Hiding were so close to my 2nd and 3rd picks. But Let It Ride has some mystique and SOLAT is just too mega.

Yep, there's one song I can think of that's going to dramatically damage the team that takes it. Hopefully, their early picks are strong enough to overcome. But I just don't know. I mean, I really dislike the song I'm thinking of.

I know chud is going to take Get Right just to piss me off.

I think that was way too soon for let it ride, but everyone seems to love that song but me and a few others so what do I know. SOLAT in the third round is nuts. Betterman I get lasting that long. It is criminally taken for granted. But SOLAT, GIven to Fly, Grievance, Black, BLACK?! None of those should have lasted this long

Let it ride was a stupid choice that early.
