If it was to come back, I don't know if I would be able to participate. Life outside of BEA has become a little busier.

Give it a month or two and lets see how many of the captains are even still around. Maybe if I have time I can help or something. Not now though...

I would offer but I'm honestly not sure how much interest there even is in this now.

Tap asked me a similar question. Assuming it's a VA compy featuring tracks that can't be found anywhere else it's fair game.

Let's see... Back of a fag-packet calculations by made-up-as-I-go-along productions:

3 X 5 for groups
2 X 5 for round 2/quarters
1 X 4 for semis (8 releases, 4 carried over from previous)
Anything goes for Final

So what's that, around 30? But no artist repeats in the same match-up (so I could use one Smiths release per each of my match-ups if I wanted to, although that would be a bit dull after a while)...

Oh wonderful, I'm sorted as is then.

Out of interest, what's the minimum number of unique releases we need? By my count it was something like 45, but I'm likely wrong here. Just wanna know so I can know whether or not I need to listen to more.

Quick update - the groupings have been provisionally decided, just gone off to my (hopefully still) esteemed help for his opinion. Once all is sorted I'll get the match-ups ready to share.

In summary - it'll be 8 groups of 4 labels, top two from each group going through to a knockout. Stay tuned for more details and stuff.

That's fine... in fact quite handy as the brings the entries up to 32.

Right - NOMS CLOSED... I'll get the groups together this week and announce the match-ups, etc. ASAP. Good luck everyone 😄
