So, for example, if ML beats LOT, then we give LOT a chance against G and LOT wins, then it goes against ML again. Why would anyone change their vote here? ML would win again. So, the problem would be if you would say that G is better than ML even though it's not better than LOT, but ML is better than LOT. That's very indecisive. I'll just say that when playing football, for example, it does not work the same because each game played is different. The rankings are based on a competition not a predetermined vote. The songs never change. It's not like we have several performances of each song that we are comparing. Now, if she had performed each of her songs several times during concerts and whatnot, then it would be a bit more interesting. We do have performances and remixes, but only of certain songs. If one compared a whole group of performances with different songs, one might even have a favorite performance and have them all ranked up, but in choosing which song is best one would have to choose performances of that song more often than any other. So, while a particular performance of JEAM might be your all time favorite, there could be more performances of JPVA that are better than some of the performances of JEAM and JPVA could come out as the ultimate winner. Again, I don't know if we really have enough Alizée performances to do a competition of that sort. But anyway, I'm open to any style that the group decides on.

That's where the real differences in opinion would come in, I think, and that's what would allow for some interesting movement in the backfield (i.e. the not-singles), and could even allow for an upset if a song like, say, V3 gets more "wins" against the competition than you'd expect. Quote:
In the first example, every song "fights" every other song only once, and is ranked according to how many victory points it racks up over the course of the "season". (But it will literally take 45 votes for every song to face every other song only once!) In the second, we're eliminating songs bracket by bracket until we come to a final "East vs. West" showdown. And in the third, we're simply picking off songs one by one, round by round, until we come to the final two. I'll admit I'm probably overthinking this, but at the same time I think it may actually be more straightforward than I'm leading you to believe. I might not be explaining myself very well...I'll draw up some examples. Quote:

Well, damn. I finally get to use a mic on one of these chat parties and I can't make it. I have to go to some stupid basketball banquet and then a graduation party. Oh the irony. This is the first one I have had to miss, but I wont miss the next one.

Heh, that's ironic. It's too bad you're going to miss it. I think this one's gonna be pretty spirited!

OK, I normally try to avoid double-posting, but it's been a few days, and I'm purposely trying to bump this as a reminder for everybody, sooooooo...
After much cursing and gnashing of teeth, I've finally figured out how this is gonna work.
Here's how the match-ups break down round-by-round, according to the handy-dandy Excel worksheet I'm going to be using to keep track during the actual chat party: (Yes, I know the colours are awful. Deal with it. ) I've got it set up to total things as we go, so I can give round-by-round updates as we go along: (You can download the workbook here, in case you want to follow along at home. Any values you plug into the boxes on Page 1 will automatically fill in on the totals chart on Page 2.) Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions, guys! Otherwise I'll see you all there tomorrow!

Will try and make it as well, should be able to since my Sunday is free, as long as the folks or my friends don't plan anything. I will give the album a good listen tonight and try to rank them I suppose, I know nothing about music though; just that I like the way it sounds, hope I don't come off as stupid lol.
