Actually, since it's a new contest, I think everyone should have a fair shot of getting in.
I don't think the byes are a good idea.

Well...how do you want to handle the fact that we only have 22 entries?

Another idea might be to take the two people that seem hardest to put in one of the groups.

Adrball happened.
So do you want to go with these groups?

How about creating 7 groups - 5 groups of 3 and 2 groups of 4.
Lose 1 from each group takes us down to 16 from where we can do a head-to-head knockout.
This way there are no byes AND if anyone else shows up before we start then put them in one of the groups of three.

My songs are coming up on save file in a completely random order, is there anyway to order them?

If there's a problem with the numbers, you can grandfather me in.
Then we'd have 21 entries in the prelim rounds.

What on earth do you mean? His tracklisting doesn't fit in that group at all. And mine certainly doesn't fit with imp or bono_man2002's.
I mean, isn't that meant to be the prog group after all?
Adrball's entry was a bit of a curveball because it begins with three classical peices all over ten minutes. Liamcool, Gibsongirl and myself all have multiple tracks of over ten minutes. So that's why the group is like that.
I'd like LMP and your thoughts on who should be in which group.
Screwtape2

I just had a crazy idea. Since we have one open slot left, why not put in the last game's winning entry? Then it would be like seeing how last year's best would stand up to this year's entries.
Good idea or terrible idea?

I excluded myself for the time being, but I'd put myself in the Group 5 section and shift Bono's Shades over to Group 4 if that's the case.
what do you guys think?
Screwtape2 said:
I missed this before, I kind of like that idea.
Everything would be even with my grouping at 5 a piece if that were the case.
Screwtape2 said:
Besides that though, I don't think his entry fits stylistically at all. It's pretty much the opposite of Liam's entry especially. I personally think the Axver/GG/Liam/Screwtape grouping is better because they're the four entries that contain decent amounts of prog bands. Sure, I didn't go with the long prog compositions, but about half of the bands on my tracklisting would be considered prog.
And guys, if we deviate from the four-per-group idea, won't that totally mess up our format that we created with the repechage rounds and everything? I'm sure we can find one other person to compete. PM someone if you'd like to see them throw in a tracklisting and see if they'll play! I know a couple of people made posts earlier about how much they wanted so-and-so to compete.

That's cool, I'll see if I can get a recruit.

I like the looks of LMP's groupings, just going off what I know of everyone's tastes without actually seeing anyones tracklists.
I'd love to go up against InMyPlace13 though. Though should be interesting.

So, did anyone figure out how to fix the thing with the out-of-order projects? Because all my tracks are uploaded and ready to be sent to you guys, but they're all out of order in the project. Is there any easy fix to that? Or should I just sent it as is?

Just to clarify, is the deadline for the save file links tomorrow at 10 EST? Not sure if that was ever clarified or not.

I asked the "ordering" question in Music on the Internet and this is the response I received.
So I guess we're stuck with whatever order Save File deems appropriate.
Wow, if I went with their order, then that's one jacked-up playlist!!!

Well, I'm putting the track number in the "description" of all my files so it shows up beneath the song title.
As far as I know, that's all that you can really do.
