The trouble with tournaments is that they lose momentum quicky. The best one in recent memory for me was the ‘best album outside the top 10,000’ or whatever it was called - pulled up some fantastic hitherto unheralded gems. |
Damn. I do see that. Hell the user top 10 sessions lost steam as well. But I got to hand it to bay for the work he does.

Yeah it definitely needs someone with patience, organisational nous and a thick skin to run one. BETH fizzled out when each match up got about 8 votes combined. I may bring it back one day, likely when you all least expect it...

Why not, I'll add a third play-in game. No more albums after this though - we have enough for people to listen to.

I thought the 1974 tourney was pretty awesome! I remember me, Spacetiger, Mecca & skinny having some good discussions. We were all set to do one for 1996 soon after but then other tourneys got preference iirc.
And yeah - the BEA outside 10,0000 tourney was awesome too.

A 1996 tournament would be sick. But 2017 will suffice. Also can't believe 3 play in's exist.

Dude, so far I'm 5 minutes in and this is really dope. But we will see if it holds up as a piece of music. Also, happy that my pick is fighting the same spot as your pick.

Thanks guys for deciding to include me despite missing the deadline, totally didn't deserve it 
So many of these I haven't heard, so I'm psyched to start patching up my 2017 library.
