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.
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

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 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.

I was devestated when I saw that Alive got matched up wtih WWS in round I. There are a handful of other killer matchups in there

yeah, I like the random seeding since some of the first round matches are tough
