Do we want to do a combined Motown and stax tourney or do a 64 bracket tourney for each then have a stax champion vs Motown champion final? Both can run concurrently.

why not just do a soul music tourney?

This fired the initial idea.

An all encompassing soul music tourney sounds daunting just to think about parameters.

And here's a Stax comp with 50 tracks.

https://www.amazon.com/Stax-50th-Anniversary-Celebration-Box/dp/B000KP62UM

It'd be nice to cap it at 128 tracks. Anyone have any ideas/feedback before I start the prep?

I think there should be some sort of limit to how many songs from a single artist you can pick. Pretty easy to just pick a bunch of Otis Redding and have a fairly competitive team.

I say that covers can most certainly be included along with the original version, if need be.

I'd say make sure you have a youtube link or something so people can sample the songs maybe?

I thought with March Madness and Gigaton we'd all be tied up till mid to late April.

I have another quick idea that won't take long. Maybe 3 weeks at most.

There probably won't be a march madness this year. I'd like for us to sit on Gigaton for a while before we have another.

Started a James Bond Tourney for JB themes and related music. To make up numbers I've got the 2 Radiohead submissions in a playoff.

So now that LV quit again mid-tourney, can we do something else? Preferably something without the huge amount of awful songs that this Billboard tournament was stacked with.
