The best album not to exist yet is The Beatles - Meet Their Clones released approximately in the year 2764 ...

Seriously, Kevin Parker's posthumous record ...

I loved the idea of the last tournament, but the problem I had was getting to actually hear the albums (Admittedly that was due to internet problems here, so I presume others didn't have the same problem). I wouldn't mind if Defago's one was resurrected, I just hope it can gather more interest...

Best album not on BEA tourney.

Let's go through all of the problems that go along with that, ignore them, and have this tournament anyway.

We should have a Best BEA Parents tournament. Someone can nominate one of their parents and then tell people their tastes and we can vote on whose parent has the best taste. I'll be the foster parent of any orphans who ask. :lol:

This.

Yeah shitty cellphone autocorrect. I believe the last tournament failed due to the sheer amount of new albums to listen to, and the time it took to do the first round matchups. If there were to be less albums, there'd definitely be more participation and shorter round times.

This, basically. I personally didn't participate much last time because I had heard almost literally none of the nominees and consequently it would've taken me forever to catch up on the full 128. I would vote we do 32 albums and then maybe do a similar sort of tourney again in the future with different albums.

I'd like to nominate my mom, she likes Grimes and Charli XCX.

We should have a Best BEA Parents tournament. Someone can nominate one of their parents and then tell people their tastes and we can vote on whose parent has the best taste. I'll be the foster parent of any orphans who ask. 🤣

Yeah I started an out of the top 2000 tournament but didnt finish it due to getting 4 or 5 votes per match and little to no comments. I WAS thinking of restarting it, but allowing less nominations to maintain interest, we had 86 last time and most peoplecouldnt listen to 86 albums in a month. Of there's interest we could redo one with 32 moms.

I'd almost rather have a top albums outside of the top 5000 tourney. Usually that means that only one, maybe two users have those albums on their charts, and those are the ones I really like finding.

There are plenty of well known albums outside of the top 1000, that's why the previous one was set to 2000. *shrugs*

Which then turned out to be a problem because nobody participated 🤣

I was listening to Godspeed You! Black Emperor just now and I had idea. What if BEA held a Best Album Outside the Top 1000 Tourney? Any album outside the top 1000 would be eligible. If an album goes into the top 1000 during nominations, then that user must change their nomination. If an album goes into the top 1000 during the tourney, however, it stays in the tourney. One nomination per user. Let me know what you think. If enough people support this, then I'll start a nominations thread in the games section.
