Immortality wins

Please vote in the thread

Songs advancing to the Division I semi-finals: Alive, Corduroy, State of Love and Trust, Yellow Ledbetter

Songs advancing to the Division II semi-finals: Sad, Release, Down, Rearviewmirror

Songs Advancing to the Division III semi-finals: Hail Hail. Immortaltiy, Last Exit, In Hiding



Okay, so I've got the tournament up. My feeble math skills couldn't make this work only using pearl jam songs. However, if we counted everything Pearl Jam has ever offically/unoffically released (as near as I can tell) and everything Eddie has offically released it adds up to 192 songs.

Spoiler: show
If you feel that the solo work of stone, jeff, etc, is underepresented too bad. This was the only way I could get this thing to work


So we have three divisions of 64 songs each. The final 3 songs will go against each other elimination style.

Voting will be on RM. each round will last approximately two days each.

The brackets were put together alphabetically, with the A's vs the Y's, etc (other than a few places where I screwed up). So there is no real seeding here, and there will be some TOUGH first round decisions to make

Please do not vote on multiple accounts.

Here are the brackets

Division I

Division II

Division III

Sorry Stip, I kind of dropped the ball on this Pearl Jam Forum tournament, I was going to actually do a song tournament like this at the beginning of the summer.

I suck, YOU RULE.

I was just not coming up with some sweet ass logistics to a kick ass song tournament, so I kind of forgot about it. But I like how you designed this thing.

maybe we can mix up how we do march madness next year. after this, it will probably be underwhelming.

It's like College Basketball Conference Tournaments that lead into March Madness.

We have tournaments to decide the final 64 teams. Got it.

Plus we didn't have one this year.
