This will be a bracket-style tourney in tradition of the March Madness tournament. We're shooting for 32 players, but if we cannot reach that number, then only the first 16 people to sign up can participate.
How it works: each player chooses exactly 15 songs, broken down like so:
1 song from each studio release (Ten --> Lost Dogs): 9 tracks 1 cover, studio or live, full-band or Ed solo: 1 song 1 live song (full-band PJ originals only/cannot be a song already chosen from the studio work): 1 song 3 songs from soundtracks, singles, fan club records or rarities (must be full-band or just Ed; side projects like Mad Season and TOTD don't count): 3 songs 1 wild card (any PJ song ever played or recorded, studio or live): 1 song
The captain of the team/mix CD can sequence the tracks however they see fit; voting should be based on the flow of the mix, the mix's theme, originality and the sequencing.
Because of the size of Pearl Jam's catalogue, we'll give each captain at least 2 full days to come up with their mix once everyone that's interested has signed up. Do not, I repeat, do not post your mix tracklisting here; simply PM it to me or Stip. We're doing it this way because we don't want the later entries copying off of earlier entries and their strategy. Originality in your mix plays a big part, which is why we're keeping everything anonymous until it's time to begin voting.
Good luck to all. Any questions about the tourney can be asked here as long as you're not giving anything away about your team. If you think you might do so by posting it here, simply PM me and I'll respond as quickly as possible.

this should be fun
Be aware that if you are not in the first 16 you may not get a chance to play this time around unless we fill the full 32

Yeah Stip and I usually pick the same lists too so I'll support Stip and yell at him when he picks poorly!
Remember, the drafting is against the catalogue, not other players, so we could both have a team
