Nope, and I'll have to wait until the end to see who it was as well...obviously I don't want to name the song either, but it's a doozy.Do you know who this particular bastard is?
If it's that good, just treat it like you have a magic free song in the competition. I'll bet it was me.Nope, and I'll have to wait until the end to see who it was as well...obviously I don't want to name the song either, but it's a doozy.
It's a shame that it can't be organised in such a way that the various songs in each category come up against each other and then the winners of each category move into the final. Probably would be too much work though.
It'll definitely work. You'll have 32 songs in each category - it's set up perfectly!I’ll look into this - could work for first round.
Well, but . . . assuming everyone picked a true "personal favo(u)rite" for category 5, then I'd guess some pretty big hitters will come up against each other in the first round too. We may not want that.It'll definitely work. You'll have 32 songs in each category - it's set up perfectly!
It also has the bonus that:
1. Everybody will have one song play in the competition every 16 matches or so, being fairly well spread out.
2. No nominator will see two of their selections come up against each other in the first round.
3. You also have the option of preserving the format for round 2 so that 8 songs from each category arrive in the top 40.
You can see how these complex seedings and competition mechanics evolve at organisations such as UEFA and FIFA !
