I agree with the earlier post.... if this tournament ever happens again, gotta find some way to do some pre-seeding.  This has been a good deal of fun so far as it is though... just hate to see songs like Run Thru get the boot so early.

Next time we do it, I'll use the info from this tournament to seed. If they have a new album by then, we'll have to figure that out.

QuoteCapt., I don't really know how to set it up with seeding. If you can explain it, or link something that can, I'll do it.

Ok, heres what Im saying.

In the first round, theres 64 songs. 32 of these are moving on into the second round

Once you/we get entirely thru the first round of voting, you order the winning songs based on how many votes they got, getting the most votes being at the top of the winning song from round 1

You then divide these 32 songs into groups of 4 based on winning votes

1-4       - #1 seeds
5-8       - #2 seeds
9-12     - #3 seeds
13-16   - #4 seeds
17-20   - #5 seeds
21-24   - #6 seeds
25-28   - #7 seeds
29-32   - #8 seeds

You now would have 4 regions, each with 8 songs, ranked according to how many votes they got

If you wanna post the final votes for Round 1 in this thread or PM me the # of votes each winner got, I could do this for you farely easily.

I can even do it a bit more technical (ie 8th most voted song (a #2) goes into the region with the #1 seed/song). Just like the NCAA tourney. Best team/song gets the 'easiest' road, the borderline seeds would eventually face the other borderline (worst #2 vs best #3 in the next round)

First of all, xmascriminal, thank you SO MUCH for setting this up. It's a great idea, and it's been a lot of fun.  :)

One idea for an improvement on the capt's idea. Since most likely not the same amount of people voted in each round so far, it's not an equal judgement to seed the second round based on votes received. Percentage of votes received would make the second round seeding more even....I can help you out and figure out the percentages for each round if you'd like. Though votes received will work out fine I'm sure too, better than random seedings.

Sorry if I'm just confusing things. I'm an engineer. That's my excuse  ;D And again, I'm think I'm speaking for both the cap'n and I here, we're really stoked you put this together. Thanks again!
