Thanks to cestuneblague for running the tournament - even more so because it apparently was a busy period for them.
Thanks to everyone else for their nominations. Many new discoveries for me, some of which made it to one of my playlists or motivated me to look up the respective full album.
The results definitely felt more random than ever, but I don't really mind it. First, this unpredictability made following the tournament more interesting. Second, I'm a big fan of the songs that comprise our top-3, so can't really complain.

Agreed. Monumental effort cestuneblague.

Really appreciate all of the work that you put into making the Tourni so enjoyable.

Will definitely be back for the next one

I'm sorry it wasn't always the most smooth-sailing but we managed to get past the finish line, I know some showed interest in the old album tournament, but if that's still a go I''m definitely passing over the reins cause I don't have another go as a games master in me.

Thanks for running this!!! Kind of a cool result even though I was hoping for Mary.

🙏 🙏 🙏

Both matches are tied, so just put 'em both in unofficial sudden death mode as the next vote for each decides the match

Yeah, no idea how that happened.
After these results, trying to predict the final winner is an exercise in futility, I know better than that now.
Clipse's song was my favourite of the bunch, but either of the two finalists would make for a great winner in my book.

Fun fact: two Geese songs were nominated in this tournament and both were eliminated by Mary Halvorson. It's a more than welcome development, but at the same time kinda crazy and admittedly ... un-BEA-like.

So please that Mary Halvorson & RMP have made the final. No way that I can choose between these two great tracks but I guess I'm going to have to try

Pleasantly surprised by the match-ups. I thought you'd do them in order and Mary Halvorson would have to face Clipse, which would have forced me to vote against my own pick. No chance of making it to the final either way, but at least I avoided the internal conflict.

Agreed. Actually, your numbers might be too modest, I'd bump them even more.

WTF just happened!!! 😮 😮 😮
