The time has arrived....

Sign up if you're interested. It'll be a double elimination tournament, usual rules. We will not be taking breaks so if you are interested in participating try and have 5 songs ready to go (that'll get you far) at the start.

You don't need to actually sing. Instrumentals are fine, and if you are part of a band that's also legit. But it has to be an original song. No covers

Particpaints
1. Badradio16-confirmed
2. Badabing-confirmed
3. csblackb
4. Raziel-confirmed
5. PhilPritchard-confirmed
6. Jimx6-confirmed
7. Iceagecoming-confirmed
8. McParadigm-confirmed
9. Kings and Comrades-confimred
10. Mikeyisgod-confirmed
11. Corky-confirmed
12. The Big So-So-confirmed
13. Oneproudmonkey-confirmed
14. Windedsailor-confirmed
15. Dyingonahilltop-confirmed
16. IC Light Years-confimred
17. Tree_-confirmed
18. Justbreathing-confirmed
19. MF-confirmed
20. pnjguy-confirmed
21. Self Polluted-confirmed
22. digster-confirmed


Okay, I can’t find a bracket for this to actually work in, but I think I have this figured out. It involves a few byes. The first two are going to McParadigm and Badradio16, since they were the two finalists last tournament. The next two will be in round 2+3 of the second chance bracket, and it will reflect the luck of the draw. The last two will be for the runner up in the main chance bracket. We have a few people who did not respond to the confirmation deadline, but I would prefer not to remove them, so I’ll just make sure they aren’t playing each other.

IF you have a bye you are still expected to submit an exhibition

Main Bracket
1. PhilPritchard vs Iceagecoming: 11/2-11/3
2. Mikeyisgod vs MF: 11/4-11/5
3. Windedsailor vs Csblackb: 11/6-11/8
4. Dyingonahilltop vs Corky: 11/9-11/10
5. Justbreathing vs Jimx6: 11/11:-11/12
6. Tree_vs. pnjguy: 11/13-11/15
7. Raziel vs. The big so-so: 11/16-11/7
8. Self-Polluted vs kings and comrades: 11/18-11/19
9. IC Light Years vs. Oneproudmonkey: 11/20-11/22

I think that's allowed. I remember posting Devil's Day before using it in the competition last time. Plus I just posted two songs that I'd be pissed if I couldn't use. :)

As long as they weren't used in the last original contest they are good. I'd hold off posting anything new though so it's fresh for people but it's your call.

well I wouldn't say team ups are 'encouraged'. They're fine either way, but not necessarily preferable
