Although in 2012 I think we then ran two other tournaments. One for 2000+ and one for the 90s with the top 32 songs facing each other. I forget who won that, but I think it was a totally different finals than the larger tournament. Also the 90s songs largely demolished the 2000 output. |

Why no tournaments in 10,11, or 13? |

In 2013 there was a tournament and Inside Job won but was later forced to vacate the title when it was discovered it had used academically ineligible votes. |

I ran it and I believe it was just before Backspacer came out and Backspacer songs were not included. The premise was whatever pre-Backspacer song was voted worst still wouldn't be as bad as the Fixer. |

The fact that "Olympic Platinum" was a finalist says a lot about this board's collective sense of humor. |
