Welcome to the first round of the main stage of the Interference Desert Island Game II! The premise of this game is that all of the Interferencers have been stranded on a desert island and we can only take up to 160 minutes of music with us (either as a continuous iPod playlist or two 80 minute CDs or any other format of our choosing). The object is to see which forum member can fit the most musical goodness into these 160 minutes.
We began the tournament with 24 contestants, 11 of whom reached the main stage of the tournament via winning qualifying rounds. 11 of the others lost and received one last chance via a series of repechages, and four made it through to the tournament proper. This left 2 contestants, dazzlingamy and FitzChivalry, who drew their qualifying round and thus both qualified for the heats. As only one place remained, a play-in round was held to break the tie, and in another close round, a result was achieved: Fitz won 15 to 13 and thus eliminated Amy. And now we begin the heats themselves, with the winner of each heat proceeding to the quarter finals. But in a dramatic twist, the 12 contestants who have been eliminated will compete instead of our 12 victors! ... but only in a non-existent fantasyland. Yeah, it's April Fools' Day and I normally ignore it, but I figured I'd do something this year to see if anyone bothers to read the intros.
So, as per the plan, this round features playlists by GibsonGirl and bono_212. Below, you will find their tracklistings. If you are unfamiliar with the songs included, we can help you hear them! Just leave your e-mail address.
